Lamberts Colladeen Derma Plus 60 Tablets is a food supplement that combines 160mg of anthocyanidins per tablet, from grapeseed and bilberry extracts, with green tea leaf, a lutein complex, vitamin C, niacin and biotin. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, and niacin and biotin contribute to the maintenance of normal skin. One pack of 60 tablets lasts 1 month at the recommended 2 tablets a day.

Key Features

• Anthocyanidins: Each tablet provides 160mg of anthocyanidins and proanthocyanidins (320mg in the 2 daily tablets), from grapeseed and bilberry extracts. Lamberts states this is the same strength as in its Colladeen tablets.
• Green tea and lutein added: Two tablets also provide 500mg of green tea leaf and 6mg of lutein, which is what sets Derma Plus apart from Colladeen.
• Vitamin C, niacin and biotin: Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin. Niacin and biotin each contribute to the maintenance of normal skin.
• Two tablets a day with a meal: The tablets can be taken together or in divided doses, so the daily amount can be split across meals.
• Suitable for vegetarians and vegans: The tablets contain no animal-derived ingredients listed on the label.
