Rice Ceramide - Plant-Based Ceramide Raw Material

Rice ceramide is a plant-derived ingredient extracted from rice. Ceramides are lipid molecules that occur naturally in the outer layer of human skin, where they help maintain the skin's moisture barrier. The plant-derived form, glucosylceramide, has been studied for its role in supporting skin barrier function and hydration when taken orally. Because it is sourced from rice, this ingredient is gluten-free, which distinguishes it from wheat-derived ceramide. This raw material is intended for manufacturers producing beauty-from-within and skin health supplements.
