Skin Carotenoid Score & Biophotonic Scanner
Your Skin Carotenoid Score is a measurement of the presence of carotenoid antioxidants in your skin. Carotenoids are powerful antioxidants found in abundance in certain fruits and vegetables. Carotenoids neutralize damaging free radical molecules and are absorbed in human plasma and tissue, providing an excellent indicator of a person’s antioxidant level. Unlike other methods of measuring antioxidants (which fluctuate throughout the day), your Skin Carotenoid Score shows the stable level of carotenoid antioxidants in your skin - providing you with a more accurate and reliable biomarker of your antioxidant level. (The scoring system is based on data gathered from more than 1,300 individuals with a variety of diets.) Your Skin Carotenoid Score will help you determine whether you are consuming an adequate amount of antioxidant-containing nutrients. Unlike other biomarkers that you may be familiar with, your Skin Carotenoid Score does not predict disease or pre-condition of disease.
How can I improve my score?
By taking antioxidant/vitamin/mineral supplements. You can track your subsequent Skin Carotenoid Scores to determine if your score is improving.This proprietary supplement contains comprehensive levels of antioxidants, bone nutrients, cardio nutrients, and B vitamins for vitality and general wellness*.
Lifestyles that include eating foods fried in saturated oils, exposure to pollution, exposure to cigarette smoke, and prolonged sun exposure may negatively influence your antioxidant defense levels. Changes you make to your diet or lifestyle activities - in an effort to improve your score - will take about 30 to 60 days before they are reflected in your Skin Carotenoid Score.
Biophotonic scanner?
The term biophotonics denotes a combination of biology and photonics, with photonics being the science and technology of generation, manipulation, and detection of photons, quantum units of light.Photon is an elementary particle or fundamental particle is a particle not known to have substructure; that is, it is not known to be made up of smaller particles. If an elementary particle truly has no substructure, then it is one of the basic building blocks of the universe from which all other particles are made, the quantum of the electromagnetic field and the basic unit of light and all other forms of electromagnetic radiation. It is also the force carrier for the electromagnetic force.
Biophotonics has therefore become the established general term for all techniques that deal with the interaction between biological items and photons. This refers to emission, detection, absorption, reflection, modification, and creation of radiation from biomolecular, cells, tissues, organisms and biomaterials. Areas of application are life science, medicine, agriculture, and environmental science.
A biophoton (from the Greek βιο meaning “life” and φωτο meaning “light”), synonymous with ultraweak photon emission, low-level biological chemiluminescence, ultraweak bioluminescence, dark luminescence and other similar terms, is a photon of light emitted from a biological system and detected by biological probes as part of the general weak electromagnetic radiation of living biological cells. Biophotons and their study should not be confused with bioluminescence, a term generally reserved for higher intensity luciferin/luciferase systems.
Biophotonics is the study, research and applications of photons in their interactions within and on biological systems. Topics of research pertain more generally to basic questions of biophysics and related subjects - for example, the regulation of biological functions, cell growth and differentiation, connections to so-called delayed luminescence, and spectral emissions in supermolecular processes in living tissues, etc.
Still lost to understand the word biophoton?
Biophotons are weak emissions of light radiated from the cells of all living things. A photon is a single particle of light. Plants, animals and humans generate up to 100 photons per second, per .15 square inches (1 sq. centimeter) of surface area. The light is too faint to be seen by the naked eye, but biophotons have been detected and verified using photomultiplier tubes.
According to a leading researcher of biophotons, German biophysicist Fritz-Albert Popp, light is constantly being absorbed and remitted by DNA molecules within each cell’s nucleus. These biophotons create a dynamic, coherent web of light. A system that could be responsible for chemical reactions within the cells, cellular communication throughout the organism, and the overall regulation of the biological system, including embryonic development into a predetermined form.
The laser-like coherence of the biophoton field is a significant attribute, making it a prime candidate for exchanging information in a highly functional, efficient and cooperative fashion, lending credence to the idea that it may be the intelligence factor behind the biological processes. An aspect of, or cousin to consciousness, though this remains speculative.
Biophoton emissions will vary according to the functional state of the organism. If a disease such as cancer affects certain cells they will radiate a different photonic signature than healthy cells of the same type. In this way biophotons can be a noninvasive tool for assessing the state of health or vitality. Applications can extend far into other areas like testing food and water quality, checking for chemical or electromagnetic contamination, or agricultural testing for products that improve crop resistance to disease. Biophysicists in many European and Asian countries are currently engaged in such research.
The Bio-Scanner was developed at the University Of Utah, one of the top medical research facilities in the world. It uses a Nobel prize winning science, called Raman Spectroscopy, to scan into the first layer of skin cells and measure the number carotinoid anti-oxidants in the body. The carotinoid anti-oxidant, one of the most abundant anti-oxidants found in fruits and vegetables, is a benchmark for other important anti-oxidants that are needed for overall health and disease prevention.

Adakah ujian-ujian ini terdapat di Malaysia
Ada..tetapi cuma tiga..tak salah saya.Penang…Ampang…Johor(tak sure)
harapnya adalah badan makmal mana mana yang ingin invest to kaji this.Yang ada cuma foreign papers.
Any study done here?
Ada.tapi most of them semua foreign paper.Kalau ada ways to conduct… sedap juga…cause it will be the first in South East Asia.
Interesting article, is this test available in clinic?
yes..we can meet up and disscuss issues pertaining to that.call 0163458888 or call my clinic 03 87379019
