author:Bright Net

Oriental Network correspondent Xu Lanqing and reporter Liu Yilin reported on December 3: "Beauty economy", collagen, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, probiotics, enzymes and other ingredients in a variety of oral beauty products in addition to attracting a lot of biscuits, fudge, drinks and other products have joined.

Recently, "niacinamide", a fairy whitening ingredient, has aroused heated discussion in the snack circle, and individual merchants have launched niacinamide formula biscuits under the slogan of "niacin helps maintain the health of the skin and mucous membranes", and even co-marketed with niacinamide masks. A fruity drink loved by young people also added niacinamide, claiming that "from a medical explanation, the niacinamide taken internally can be metabolized to the surface of the skin through exercise, and can also play a certain role in whitening and brightening and anti-aging of the skin." ”

However, dermatologists said that niacinamide is a kind of vitamin B family, which has a good effect on inhibiting melanin precipitation, anti-inflammatory and other aspects; but added to snacks and drinks, the beauty effect will be minimal.

Niacinamide, also known as niacinamide, is an amide compound of niacin. Will the addition of niacinamide, a whitening ingredient, really have an effect on food? "Hard to say!"

Dr. Dai Junlai of the Department of Dermatology of Shanghai Renai Hospital said that niacinamide is an essential vitamin for the human body. It does have a certain role in inhibiting melanin precipitation, anti-inflammatory, etc., but as a whitening product, it can only play an auxiliary role. Now added to food, its whitening effect will be minimal. Dr. Dai Junlai further introduced that niacinamide is not suitable for everyone, and some people will have skin redness, dry itching, tingling and other phenomena after using niacinamide.

In addition, many experts agree that food should first ensure safety and health, and then talk about other effects such as beauty. The choice of beauty snacks should be cautious, and more look at the ingredients and instructions.
