Healthy, beautiful skin all starts with a fresh slate, and clay masks are a tried and true way to draw out impurities from the skin. Clay has been used for centuries as a natural skincare solution, but never before has anyone fused the ancient properties of the earth’s volcanic clay with the innovative breakthrough technology of redox signaling. Learn about the new ASEA® Redox Clay Mask and the amazing things it can do for your skin health.

What is bentonite clay?
When volcanic ash ages over time, it turns into highly absorbent clay. It didn’t take long for indigenous peoples in the surrounding areas of aged volcanic clay to discover its many amazing uses, and they’ve been using it on their skin for thousands of years. Bentonite clay masks have several benefits, like absorbing excess oils and helping manage troubled skin. Bentonite also tightens the skin because of its absorbing powers, leaving your skin feeling refreshed after just one use.

How the clay mask works
When we designed our new Redox Clay Mask, we searched for tried and true ancient natural ingredients and fused them with our very own science-led and innovative redox technology—the same technology found in our acclaimed ASEA® Redox Cell Signaling Supplement and RENU28® Revitalizing Redox Gel.

Negative charges in bentonite clay are highly absorbent. When you apply the mask to your skin, it acts like a magnet, drawing out positively-charged impurities in the form of dirt, oil, and makeup residue.

Why ASEA® Redox Clay Mask is different
The absorbent power of the bentonite clay prepares the pores of your skin to absorb the redox signaling molecules in our Redox Clay Mask. Redox signaling molecules play a crucial role in cellular communication and balance. These molecules are produced within the human body.

Our proprietary technology aids with healthy skin cell turnover, protection, and renewal. ASEA® cell-signaling redox molecules act as a bio-switch and help your surface skin cells communicate—for a complexion that looks visibly renewed, refined, and more youthful.

Ancient wisdom meets modern innovation
By bringing the age-old power of the earth’s volcanic clay and synchronizing it with the innovative power of redox signaling, ASEA has created the world’s first-ever cell-signaling clay mask. Instantly feel your skin tighten and see a refreshed appearance after just one use. Go from greasy to glowing and experience smooth, radiant, and younger-looking skin—all with one powerful clay mask full of potential.

The Power of the Body

Hormones are remarkable! These highly specialized chemical messengers control the activities of cells and organs throughout the body. Hormones virtually influence everything we think, feel, and do on a minute-to-minute basis right down to the cellular level. When they work synergistically in balance and in harmony with one another, we enjoy optimal health and a sense of well-being. But when they are out of whack, we can experience a myriad of seemingly disparate symptoms including mood, anxiety, weight gain, lack of energy, among others.

Thankfully, we can overcome much of this through the right diet, supplementation, lifestyle modifications, and exercise. The truth is that there are many different hormones we now know contribute to the optimal functioning of the human body. There are hormones that control your metabolism (thyroid hormones), some that control your appetite (adiponectin, cholecystokinin, leptin, and ghrelin), some for stress (cortisol), and some for reproduction (progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone).

What may be most fascinating of all is that the simple act of eating food evokes a hormonal response. Carbohydrates, for example, stimulate the secretion of the hormone insulin, which tells the body to absorb blood sugars. Protein triggers the hormone glucagon, which tells the body to release sugars into the blood. Certain fats provide the building blocks for tissues, while others linked to hormones known as eicosanoids, control cellular function throughout the body. It is the delicate balance of each and every one of these food-based hormones that determine well-being in the body.

How Insulin Affects Your Health

Insulin is the key hormone that controls blood sugar levels after you eat carbohydrates. Insulin helps muscle tissue use blood sugar as fuel for energy, and it helps store excess blood sugar in two ways. First, it stores blood sugar in the liver and tissues as sugar. But the body can store only a limited amount of glycogen. Any excess beyond what the body can store is converted to body fat. To increase glucagon relative to insulin, and thus enable the body to access body fat better, requires a more balanced proportion of carbohydrate, protein, and fat at each meal. Exercise also reduces insulin levels.

Keep in mind that all the carbohydrates that our bodies absorb from food are converted into blood sugar, even from the least sugary of foods. But carbohydrates from low-glycemic food sources are converted more slowly into blood sugar, thus avoiding a rush of blood sugar and an answering rush of insulin into the bloodstream. High-glycemic carbohydrates—rice cakes and bread not made from whole grains, for example—as well as simple sugars and processed carbohydrates—white rice and bagels, for example—produce these blood sugar and insulin rushes, with the consequent depletion of blood sugar, loss of energy and concentration, and renewal of food cravings.

Omega 3 oils and Omega 7 Oils

A blend of omega 3 oils, as well as omega 7s, has the full spectrum of omega power to help maintain healthy blood sugar levels.* Several studies have shown that fish oil supplements can minimize the risk that your food will be stored as fat. Making sure the cells in your body are helping maintain healthy blood sugar levels* is a well-established key to a healthy weight. Taking an omega 3 supplement like ASEA VIA Omega is plain old good dietary insurance.

🐠🥑The typical western diet is low in essential fatty acids, particularly omega 3s.

🐠🥑In addition, most people ingest more omega-6 fatty acids than they need, mostly from vegetable oils and farm-raised red meats. Insufficient omega-3 fatty acids in the diet combined with too much intake of omega-6 fatty acids is believed to contribute to a variety of common health concerns.

🐠🥑ASEA VIA Omega is formulated for cardiovascular and brain support. This premium supplement is made from the freshest fish oil in the industry, wild-caught from a natural, sustainable source, providing both EPA and DHA in natural ratios to aid in absorption.

Join us tonight for this live interview with the head USA Olympics women's track and field team coach, Rose Monday - coach for the 2021 Olympics.

There is a reason why redox signaling is being utilized by more and more serious athletes. It is because of its unique ability to shift Krebs Cycle metabolites to favor burning free fatty acids first over glucose/glycogen; burning fats first and glucose second. It also dramatically increases VO2max and is a huge Nrf2/glutathione activator.

Spoiler alert - it is glucose/glycogen sparing, burns fats first which has 9 kcal energy compared to glucose at 4 kcal/gram, doesn't build lactic acid from oxidation of glucose - which shortens recovery time and comfort, and reduces fat/triglyceride stores in the body. Research shows it shifts 43 metabolites and begins mobilizing free fatty acids prior to exercise during rest, rather than just during or after exercise has started - making it available from the start.

Join us tonight, August 28th at 6 pm Pacific time @ DiscoverAsea.com to hear from this storied Olympic star, and now Olympic coach.

Grateful to have learned this a decade ago.

The billions of microbes living in your gut form your microbiome—a unique community of organisms whose job it is to interact with each other to keep you healthy. Some microbe species work to protect you from invasive bacteria while others help you extract nutrients from your food.

Your overall health depends on the microbiome being in harmony with the cells of the body. Disruptions from things like medications, environmental toxins, pesticides, illness, and even municipal water can interrupt that balance with adverse effects.

Expertly formulated, VIA Biome contains a whopping 16 probiotic strains as well as prebiotics, a vital precursor to nourishing the microbiome.

Skin is considered the largest 'organ' of the body and is a major defense shield from the outside world. Skin cells turn over on average every 28 days - when we're young and/or the skin is healthy. Not so much as we age, become diseased, or are skin-damaged due to toxicity, inflammation, radiation (UV), etc. As cells slow down or become less efficient they take longer and produce signs of aging and disease - including wrinkles.

This article presents great science in understanding the nature of redox signaling and health in skin cells.

Pull Quote from abstract- (a great summary of the science about why healthy levels of redox signaling is important for skin health and anti-aging):

"Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can be both beneficial and deleterious. Under normal physiological conditions, ROS production is tightly regulated, and ROS participate in both pathogen defense and cellular signaling. However, insufficient ROS detoxification or ROS overproduction generates oxidative stress, resulting in cellular damage. Oxidative stress has been linked to various inflammatory diseases. Inflammation is an essential response in the protection against injurious insults and thus important at the onset of wound healing. However, hampered resolution of inflammation can result in a chronic, exaggerated response with additional tissue damage. In the pathogenesis of several inflammatory skin conditions, e.g., sunburn and psoriasis, inflammatory-mediated tissue damage is central. The prolonged release of excess ROS in the skin can aggravate inflammatory injury and promote chronic inflammation. The cellular redox balance is therefore tightly regulated by several (enzymatic) antioxidants and pro-oxidants; however, in case of chronic inflammation, the antioxidant system may be depleted, and prolonged oxidative stress occurs. Due to the central role of ROS in inflammatory pathologies, restoring the redox balance forms an innovative therapeutic target in the development of new strategies for treating inflammatory skin conditions."
