Product Details
- Promotes beauty from within with gluten-free ceramides
- Nourishes skin for a healthy, youthful glow
- Helps to enhance skin hydration
The key to radiant, supple, youthful-looking skin is hydration and good skin hydration depends on a class of lipids known as ceramides. Found in both plants and animals, ceramides are waxy bioactive lipids that compose up to 50% of the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of the epidermis, where they form a protective barrier to prevent excessive water loss and help maintain skin elasticity. Unfortunately, as we grow older, the level of ceramides in the epidermis declines, causing the skin to lose moisture and elasticity, which can lead to visible signs of aging. The good news is that by supplementing your diet with phytoceramides you can replenish the skin’s ceramide content, restoring what age takes away for a healthy, youthful glow.
Swanson Advanced PhytoCERAMIDES veggie capsules feature scientifically researched Ceramosides®. This highly concentrated source of phytoceramides is extracted from non-GMO wheat, certified gluten free and has been clinically shown to improve skin moisturization by 21% in just two weeks, and over 28% after two months compared to a placebo.¹ It’s the ultimate moisturizer, working from the inside out, with full body coverage no topical skincare product can deliver.

FAQ
- What are PhytoCERAMIDES®, and how do they support healthy skin?
Swanson PhytoCERAMIDES® features Ceramosides®, a clinically studied, plant-derived ceramide ingredient sourced from non-GMO wheat. Ceramides are naturally occurring lipids that make up a significant portion of the skin's protective barrier, helping maintain moisture, elasticity, and healthy-looking skin. Supplementing with PhytoCERAMIDES® helps replenish ceramide levels that naturally decline with age, supporting skin hydration and overall skin wellness from within. - How do PhytoCERAMIDES® help improve skin hydration?
Ceramides help strengthen the skin's natural moisture barrier, reducing water loss and supporting long-lasting hydration. Clinical research on Ceramosides® has shown improvements in skin moisturization in as little as two weeks, with continued benefits following consistent daily use. By nourishing the skin from within, PhytoCERAMIDES® help promote softer, smoother, and more supple-looking skin. - How are PhytoCERAMIDES® different from collagen supplements?
While collagen supplements primarily provide structural proteins that support skin firmness, PhytoCERAMIDES® help maintain the skin's lipid barrier, which is essential for retaining moisture. Ceramides and collagen support skin health through complementary mechanisms, making PhytoCERAMIDES® an excellent option for individuals looking to support hydrated, healthy-looking skin from the inside out. - How long does it take to see results from PhytoCERAMIDES®?
Clinical studies evaluating Ceramosides® have reported measurable improvements in skin hydration after approximately two weeks of daily use, with additional improvements observed after two months of consistent supplementation. Individual results may vary depending on factors such as age, diet, and overall skin health. - Do PhytoCERAMIDES® contain gluten?
Swanson PhytoCERAMIDES® features Ceramosides®, a plant-derived ceramide ingredient sourced from non-GMO wheat. Although the ingredient originates from wheat, the manufacturing process removes the wheat proteins responsible for gluten, and the finished product is certified gluten free. This allows individuals following a gluten-free diet to enjoy the skin hydration and skin barrier support benefits of Ceramosides® while avoiding gluten. However, anyone with celiac disease, a wheat allergy, or other medical concerns should consult their healthcare provider before using this product. - Is Swanson PhytoCERAMIDES® suitable for special dietary needs?
Yes. Swanson PhytoCERAMIDES® is vegan and non-GMO, making it a great choice for individuals following plant-based or non-GMO lifestyles. This formula features Ceramosides®, a clinically studied, plant-derived ceramide ingredient sourced from non-GMO wheat, providing nutritional support for healthy skin hydration, skin barrier function, and overall skin wellness without animal-derived ingredients or genetically modified ingredients.
