Why I Created Bronze Bites: My Journey to Healthier, Glowing Skin

Hey, y'all just recording a few bits here on our flagship product Bronze Bites basically, I created this product because I personally value my skin a lot, and I think that skin health is super important and in today's society there's not enough ingredients in our food naturally that we can get the vitamins that we need.

And there's some powerful antioxidants out on the market right now that really help with skin health. So I wanted to talk to you about some of the initial research that I made when I put this product into formulation and why I think this product is really, really good for the vast majority of people.

And you're gonna see incredible long-term results and just go through some of the studies and the actual research, because I think people are a little, maybe. Misled with marketing today in the social media channels. There's so much gimmick out there. There's so much loud noise about claims, and really this product does make your skin glow and it does give you a natural tone and color and can help you with a.

Subtle tan in your skin, but it's not a miracle drug. Like all these other products that they claim, it's gonna take time. And that's why we recommend in our website when we sell our product, we even offer a bundle where you buy two get one free. And oftentimes we offer even better deals on our email subscriber list.

If you're not there, please join. But I wanted to talk and just share some of the insights I have and really go through some of the research with you so you can really understand the value and the benefits of betacarotene. Astaxanthin and vitamin C, and making sure you get the adequate levels in your daily diet.

Making sure you get the adequate levels of betacarotene, astaxanthin, and vitamin C in your daily diets, that you can make sure your skin is optimal, that it's glowing, that it has color, that you look vibrant and beautiful and attractive, and that is the name of the game, to make sure skin is very healthy, long term.

So you know that skin color, that tone that you get from being after Vacation Glow, that's what we can do from the inside out with Bronze Bites. This product really helps with that, and there's a reason for it. It's because we offer both betacarotene and astaxanthin. Two of the most powerful potent pigments, betacarotene, you may know, comes from carrots.

It also can be found in sweet potatoes. It's the pigment that gives nature. The orange red hue that you see in those types of ingredients, in those types of natural plants.

they've done a lot of studies with betacarotene and they've found that it's a quite natural, healthy antioxidant for your skin. And on top of that it can actually build into your skin and add a natural color.

They have, they have conducted several studies, one study in particular.

So with Betacarotene, it builds up in your skin cells over time, and it gives you a warm glow that people find naturally more attractive.

It's your own skin tone, but it enhances it from the inside out.

And it helps your skin stay healthy and handle sun exposure, ironically, better. All at safe studied levels, and we are extremely safe with our dosing, but also efficacious, meaning we use an amount that is very safe, well tolerated, and is not overly excessive, but also quite effective in the studies.

We actually offer eight milligrams per day of betacarotene and bronze bites, and during a six to 12 week timeframe, you will see a visible color shift in your skin.

There's another study that was done that surveyed the opposite sex and their attractiveness, and in that study they had participants take betacarotene for a period of 12 weeks, and on average at seven and a half milligrams per day.

Again, we offer eight milligrams per day. They participants started noticing and the study showed actual measurable results at six to 12 weeks.

Now there was a study done where they offered participants 12 to 24 milligrams quite a bit more than we have, but not too much more without the combination of an astaxanthin and vitamin C that we have and the skin. Now there's another study they did where they gave participants 12 milligrams of betacarotene and they measured their higher MED value.

That is the UV tolerance. That means your skin's ability to handle sun damage and rebound and stay healthy and not age as fast.

And they found that when participants took. Betacarotene daily for 10 to 12 weeks straight. They actually had a noticeable improvement in their higher MED values, meaning that they were more protected from UV exposure. Now, I'm not saying full disclosure that you should go out and bake in the sun. I think we should all protect our face and our hands and our neck and all the sensitive areas,

taking bronze bites with the betacarotene based on the science will actually improve your ability, your tolerance to handle more sun exposure.

By the way, we publish all these studies and we share all of our details on our website. You can go to the bottom and find our FAQ. You can also find more about our founder story and about our. Actual story where we show more of the data and the science. We have a science section where we, show a lot of this information, so don't be shy.

Learn, go learn for yourself, do your own research. I've dove deep into this and it's been a very eye-opening experience as I've learned to kind of protect my skin and also add natural color to it. Ironically, betacarotene causes skin tone. It causes that glow in your skin, that color build over time. But there was a study done that actually shows that there was a reduction in erythema, which is basically when your skin turns red from overexposure, from uv.

The study showed that there was a reduction in erythema, and this happened at a dose of greater than six milligrams per day.

We recommend and we dose for eight milligrams per day at eight to 12 weeks. So if you take these and you do get sun. They're going to add color, and they're also going to prevent the sun from damaging your skin and help reduce the effects of over exposure or acute sort of buildup.

Erythema is medical, speak for skin redness, inflammation, and irritation.

Bronze bites has the betacarotene dosage at eight milligrams, and the study conducted showed that at six milligrams or greater per day. At eight to 12 weeks, there was a noticeable reduction in the skin redness from that sun exposure. Not your tone, not your color, but your actual redness, irritation from the exposure.

The bottom line is that eight milligrams is right in the right range of betacarotene per day, where studies have shown, human studies have shown enhanced skin coloration. Enhanced attractiveness within six to 12 weeks while contributing to photo protection, especially in combination with the other antioxidants, astaxanthin, and vitamin C.

In our formula, betacarotene helps shift your skin towards a healthy glow. Multiple trials show that betacarotene supplementation increases your skin's natural color, which people have rated as more attractive and healthy looking.

Now I'm gonna read off a couple studies just so you can kind of see I'm not just talking, Steven et all 2011 diets or supplements. Increasing carotenoid intake, again, betacarotene included, make skin appear more golden and healthier in six weeks. Pez et all 2016 supplementation with 7.5 milligrams per day for 12 weeks.

Again, this is not a instant solution, but over time in healthy adults increased skin attractiveness ratings, Bendik and Olson 18, 19 89. Higher skin carotenoid levels linked to perceived health and vitality,

and it gets better for you. Sunbirds out there. Higher UV tolerance. Matthews Roth Etal 1993 and Henrik Etal 2003, 12 to 24 milligrams per day for 10 to 12 weeks increased minimal arrhythmia dose. MED meaning more UV was needed to burn the skin. Now again, we offer eight milligrams, but you're, you're more than welcome if you know you're gonna be going into a lot of sun exposure to take even more.

We're thinking about it, but we also want to be mindful of finding the balance, but it's not inconsequential. We offer eight milligrams per two gummies per daily dose, so you're getting quite a bit of that dose that you want. And so that's another study that talks just about you're enhancing your skin's ability to tolerate UV exposure before it gets burned, which is great because you're, you're essentially creating a healthier layer of natural SPF in your skin, allowing yourself to.

Tolerate more sun. And again, just to top that off, even at six to nine milligrams, skin carotinoids build up and enhance antioxidant defenses over time, studies show reductions in arrhythmia. Studies show reductions in erythema after supplementation, especially when baric betacarotene is paired with other antioxidants.

In this case, we have anti astaxanthin. Studies show reductions in erythema after supplementation, especially when betacarotene is paired with other antioxidants. In this case, we have astaxanthin. One of the most potent antioxidants in bronze Bites. We have a significant amount, a very safe, significant amount. In this case, we have astaxanthin and we also have vitamin C in bronze bites.

Studies show that bronze bites beta care team dose is well below any sort of risky amount. The studies that they've done have been 20 to 30 milligrams over years with no issues. So you're taking eight milligrams per day and there are no issues that have been shown. Slight disclaimer, if you are a heavy smoker, there is some science that may cause carotinoids to affect your lung tissue in a negative way.

So for some people, if you are a smoker, you have any sort of asbestos exposure, that's something you may want to consider consulting with your doctor. Deviating away, no matter who it is or what you're taking, you should not be taking carotinoids if you're a heavy smoker. And I wanna talk about this because it's probably something a lot of founders are afraid to touch on.

But I looked deep into this because I smoked 20 years ago, you know, and I wanted to really make sure this was something that was okay. And, basically the way beta care team works in a norm is in, it's in. So I'm gonna give you the summary. At a high school level, and then I'll kind of dive in a little bit more to the science.

But essentially,

betacarotene is a normal antioxidant. It neutralizes free radicals and helps protect skin.

All right. I want to give you the summary of how beta care team can maybe, perhaps have an adverse effect if you are a smoker. And in this case, they're defining a smoker as someone who's heavy, meaning they've been a long-term smoker who smokes at least 20 or more cigarettes per day. So this is a very, probably pretty rare case for many of you, but it's something to consider.

So if the studies that they ran basically. They had smokers taking 30 milligrams, 30 milligrams. This is essentially three times the dose we offer in a daily dose at five to seven years. And over the course of the five to seven years, they saw an increase in lung cancer for smokers. Again, remember 20 plus cigarettes per day.

That was the rare outlier. Another study was 20 milligrams per day over several years, and they had an 18% risk increase in lung cancer, but this jumped to 25% for those smoking, 20 or more cigarettes per day. So again, obviously if you're smoking, your risks for lung cancer are probably not something that's top of mind for you, but in that case, probably don't take Carotinoids period

based on what I could understand and what I was able to research, betacarotene is a normal antioxidant. It normally neutralizes free radicals and helps protect your cells In a normal body, even at our supplement dose, it's generally safe and beneficial. But in smoker's lungs, the environment is totally different.

There's a constant flood of free radicals from cigarette smoke. Free radicals are damage to your cells, to your DNA and essentially. In that setting, high doses of betacarotene, we're talking 20 to 30 milligrams and this one of the studies was 20 and one was 30. It can flip rolls. Instead of neutralizing free radicals, it starts to break down into oxidative byproducts

these byproducts can act as pro-oxidants. We talk about oxidative stress, right? Oxidative damage, and it no longer, it basically flips from reducing it to. Potentially inducing it and it interferes with the re rettino acid signaling, which is crucial for controlling cell growth and repairing lung tissue

upregulates growth related transcription factors like AP one, encouraging abnormal cell growth. So again, we're talking about smokers by definition, who smoke 20 plus cigarettes a day and are taking in the biggest study three times our dose. Every single day for five to seven years. So the risk factor is very low.

And I even looked at the tolerance here. Even at 15 milligrams, there's almost no concern, and it provides huge margin for anyone who even dabbles. Hey all, Kurt here, the founder of Bronze Bites, tanning gummies. And I wanted to talk to you about one of the key ingredients we made in this product, which is astaxanthin.

If you've ever looked on Amazon in the Astaxanthin category, you've seen all these crazy testimonials and stories about how powerful this antioxidant is. There's real studies behind this, and that's one of the key reasons that we put this in our product it's more potent than the majority of antioxidants out on the market. In fact, hey y'all, Kurt here from Bronze Bites and I wanna talk to you about one of the most important ingredients we formulated in this product, along with our beta carotene. And that is Asta Xanthin. It is a potent antioxidant and it's one of the safest, most studied natural antioxidants for skin health.

Regulators in Europe and the US have set supplement level intakes at 12 to 14 milligrams per day. We offer four milligrams in bronze bites, and it's exactly the same amount that's been used in clinical trials that improved skin smoothness, hydration and UV resilience.

Some of the outcomes that they've seen in studies which we post on our website, if you wanna learn more about them, are. The improved elasticity, moisture, and reduced wrinkles in skins. Now, this was a study that was done where they had participants taking four to six milligrams per day. They took it for six to eight weeks, so they saw the benefit in just over a month and a half, and it was a four milligram per day dose.

The exact same dose that we offer in bronze Bites another. Benefit they found in studies was a higher med value. This is, related to your UV tolerance, your ability for your skin to handle sun exposure and not get burned, to not develop premature aging, to stay healthy and resilient.

They had participants taking four to six milligrams per day at eight to nine weeks, and they had a clear measurable outcome of improved med values in UV tolerance for those participants. The last thing was sebum balance for men. In particular, they gave men four milligrams per day for six weeks, and they saw a noticeable improvement in the sebum balance, the oils in the skin that were naturally, regulated in a better way.

Now I'm gonna get into some of the mumbo jumbo, but these are some of these studies that we wanna link. So cosmetic benefits of astaxanthin. Domingo, K et all from 2012. The study was about cosmetic benefits of astaxanthin, improved elasticity, moisture, and reduced wrinkles. Women at, at four milligrams per day.

Men at, I'm sorry, women at six milligrams per day. Men at four milligrams per day. So this was a study that was done in 2012 that showed that four to six milligrams per day over the period of six to 12 weeks. Showed a measurable outcome in improved elasticity, moisture, and reduced wrinkles in your skin.

Now I'm gonna get to one of the studies, minga, K ET all 2012 cosmetic benefits of this, a cosmetic benefits of astaxanthin, improved elasticity, moisture, and reduced wrinkles, women and men. Dosed at four milligrams per day on PubMed Yamashita. Four milligrams per day for nine weeks. Increased med. Again, your UV tolerance, your ability to not burn in the sun, and reduced moisture lost after uc.

UV exposure. Carotinoids science, five pages, 91 through 95. That's in the abstract of PubMed. Review. Now, sec, e, et al. 2001 was the study. They gave six milligrams a day. Now we offer four milligrams per day. So according to my calculations and the science I've referred to were right there at the dosing.

Astaxanthin again is one of the most studied antioxidants for skin health. It's well formulated in our product at four milligrams per day, exactly the same amount used in clinical trials to improve skin smoothness, hydration and UV resilience.

Again, smoothness is a huge factor for us. One more ingredient we put in here that we thought was really important outside of the organic. Requirements needed to make a gummy was the vitamin C, and this is the foundation of your skin health. Vitamin C helps you stabilize collagen. It protects your skin from sun damage.

It keeps your skin barrier strong, and at a hundred milligrams per day, we're making sure that your body is properly saturated with vitamin C and pairing it well with betacarotene and Asan and actually makes it an incredible antioxidant network pairing that works really well together.

Hey guys. Kurt here, the founder of Bronze Bites, tanning gummies, and I wanted to talk to you about our product and my journey as a founder and why we created this product, number one. The product contains some pretty powerful ingredients in a very special blend and combination for your skin health.

It also, as you are probably aware and have seen from our website and all of the testimonies we have, that it can create a natural glow in your skin. The core ingredients that we use in the product. This unique blend is betacarotene, which is found in the standard American diet naturally, but most people don't get enough of it.

So you can look at the natural diet and the average person may get one to two, maybe three milligrams per day through a variety of foods. Things like sweet potatoes, carrots, pumpkin, but most people are not getting the dose that we provide in our product, which is the eight milligrams per day this is well below the studies that have regulated and checked the safety levels of this, but it over a period of six to 12 weeks has been validated when you take it daily to actually build a natural glow to your skin.

Now another core ingredient that we produce in the formula that's combined with that betacarotene is astaxanthin. Now astaxanthin is a very unique antioxidant. It is 10 times stronger than betacarotene at neutralizing. Single oxygen singlets. So what that means is as you go through your day to day and you get oxidative stress in your skin, in your exposure with your environment, through sun, through all of these different things, you are getting the ability, you're getting your body, you're building the nutritional support for your skin to repair itself, to Reprotect itself.

And astaxanthin is actually 550 times stronger than vitamin E alpha tocopherol, which is another powerful antioxidant almost nobody gets astaxanthin in their diet unless they're eating wild sockeye salmon.

The pink salmon that you see on a regular basis multiple times a week, so you get almost no astaxanthin and a powerful antioxidant. If you look at the category and you look at the studies, it is really shown to help build your skin health, repair your skin, help with overall oxidative stress in your body by being such a powerful antioxidant, is very safe, well studied, and we offer four milligrams in our gummy, combined with the betacarotene and vitamin C.

Hey y'all, Kurt here, the founder of Bronze Bites, and I wanted to talk to you about our unique formulas. So we offer a gummy that you take twice a day. That combined as a serving total gives you eight milligrams of betacarotene and

four milligrams of astaxanthin and a hundred milligrams of vitamin C. Now, why is this unique and why would you want to take this? Well, in the average diet for an American, you actually see that they get typically one to three milligrams of betacarotene and betacarotene. And studies has been shown to actually create a natural glow in your skin and also can be converted into vitamin A retinol to help with your skin health.

So in studies done where they've seen skin glow, skin health, and photo protection, meaning protection from the sun, the study was conducted, they gave the participants six to 12 milligrams. Our gummies offer the perfect amount at eight milligrams per day.

Most individuals don't eat enough beta-carotene. You're not eating the carrots, the sweet potatoes.

Most people don't get enough vitamin

With Bronze Bites, we help supplement that deficiency most people don't get enough pumpkin, carrot, sweet potato in their diet consistently to meet that threshold where the studies have shown that you can actually develop photo protection and a natural glow within your skin from the intake of betacarotene.

Another unique ingredient that we include in bronze bites is astaxanthin. Now, astaxanthin is a very powerful antioxidant and it has been shown in studies to be photoprotective. It also helps with fine lines. It neutralizes oxidative stress in your body and in your skin, in particularly, and it can directly protect collagen and elastin from UV damage.

Studies have shown that it improves moisture elasticity, reduces wrinkles, and as little as six to eight weeks when taking four to six milligrams per day. Now our gummies offer four milligrams per day. It is well studied and has been shown to be quite safe when consumed consistently over long periods of time in healthy adults.

And the crazy thing is between betacarotene and astaxanthin, if you're not consuming salmon on a regular basis, if you're not eating a ton of sweet potatoes, carrots, pumpkin, on a regular basis, you're probably not getting the levels that these studies show that allow you to get that natural glow, to have that optimal skin protection, to reduce the oxidative stress with the power of these antioxidants and carotinoids give life and youth to your skin to allow it to look beautiful and last long.

Most Americans only get about one to three milligrams of betacarotene per day in their diet unless you're consistently consuming lots of carrots, sweet potatoes, specifically the orange sweet potatoes that have the keratinoid pigment, the orange pigment in them, and you're almost never getting astaxanthin.

This is one of the most powerful antioxidants unless you're consuming. The salmon you buy at the grocery store is farm raised 99% of it, and it's dyed with betacarotene ironically. But the ashin you find naturally in nature is almost not common in our diet, and yet this in studies with the pro, the proper dosing we have in our gummy actually allows for you to have.

Significantly stronger protection amongst your skin, and also develop a natural glow that in the studies has shown with our dosing and our blend to allow you to develop a natural color and attractiveness.

So we built Bronze Bite's, unique formula to help women and men glow from the inside out. I actually had skin issues most of my life, but entering my forties now in the early forties of my life, I've found that this formula has been a phenomenal way to keep my skin looking youthful, hydrated, and preventing it from developing fine lines and wrinkles.

As the founder of Bronze Bites and someone who's been passionate about health and biohacking for nearly a decade now, who's also created and developed products and supplements for over a decade now, bro Bites is one of my flagship products, and let me tell you why.

There are three highly proven ingredients in Bronze Bites, and we use organic ingredients. Where we can find them and we source it in the us this is the cleanest product on the market when it comes to quality control, certificates of authenticity, and the proper formulation of the product.

We are using eight milligrams of betacarotene. It is extremely safe but also efficacious, meaning that it is effective at this dose when taken consistently over a period of several weeks. We use astaxanthin, we use vitamin C. The primary studies that have supported the benefits of this product relate to developing a natural glow, improving skin tone, protecting the elastin and collagen in your skin, reducing fine lines, improving moisture retention in your skin, keeping it protective of UV damage.

There's actually a factor called MED that they. Have studied with consumers that take these antioxidants and they actually benefit their skin's ability to rebound from light exposure to UV damage from the redness that you get from sun exposure, as well as the, preventive of UV damage within the skin

just like everything else that actually works. It's not a magic pill. You have to take it consistently. But if you take this, the studies that we built this formula on, were anywhere from six to 12 weeks, which is why we offer a bundle on our site and we offer a discount because we recommend and we guarantee the product over the period of 90 days because we believe in it at that 12 week mark you have.

Past the threshold where there's effic at that 12 B mark. You have passed the point where the studies have shown that when you take this product daily to protect and to add color, and to reduce the fine lines and to improve the elasticity of your skin and the youthfulness and the moisture of your skin, you can actually see those results.

And if you wanna check out more, we have a whole section on our website. On bronzebites.com where you can look at the science and learn more about these studies and all of the actual science that goes into the formulation of this product. So hope to see you there. Thanks for checking out this video, and I appreciate you watching.
