Best Anti-Aging/Anti-Wrinkle Cream: Tropical Flower Sugar?

The best cream for getting rid of wrinkles and "rejuvenating" the skin may be made from a sugar extracted from a tropical flower called the Uncaria, aka "Cat's Claw" or "Uña de Gato". New research from the L'Oreal company shows that the sugar, called rhamnose, can actively regenerate skin cells by stimulating them to produce new collagen. This apparently leads to an increase in skin elasticity and plumpness over time, giving skin a more youthful appearance.

Researchers are hailing rhamnose as the first anti-wrinkle compound proven to work by science. We take that to mean that all the thousands of other wrinkle creams and supplements are worthless junk. :)

Whatever the case, the development of new cosmeceuticals containing wrinkle-fighting ingredients that actually work is going to make millions of aging women -- and surely more than a few men -- extremely happy. It's also going to make the cosmetics and pharmaceutical companies millions of dollars...
