We all have our favorite memories of the season – Christmas trees, stockings stuffed with gifts, the beauty of a new fallen snow. But nothing says “happy holidays” quite like this study I found on the composition and pharmaceutical activity of chondroitan sulfate obtained from reindeer trachea. That’s right, I said “reindeer trachea.” Although chondroitan sulfate is usually employed as a joint medication, chondroitan-based ingredients do make their way into a variety of skin care beauty products.
Could jolly ol’ Santa be secretly harvesting reindeer trachea for big Pharma? Run Rudolph, run!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the Beauty Brains!
