PhytoSpherix™ is a phytoglycogen extracted from the kernels of sweet corn by a new, patented green process. It is a highly branched polysaccaride with a unique spherical dendrimer structure. Due to its native bio-identical structure, PhytoSpherix™ has similar effects as animal-derived glycogen. It increases cellular metabolism and promotes collagen and hyaluronic acid production in skin cells.

PhytoSpherix™ is COSMOS approved.

PhytoSpherix™ is a former product of Mirexus Inc.

Plant Source

Sweet corn is one of the very few plants which is able to produce glycogen as an energy source. This phytoglycogen can be isolated out of the corn through multiple purification steps. This results in PhytoSpherix™: a unique phytoglycogen for cosmetic applications.
