It has been used for centuries as a personal-care ingredient.

Your body's receptors are chiral, which means they recognize one form of a molecule and not the other. Vitamin C is a good everyday example: L-ascorbic acid is the form the body uses; D-ascorbic acid is not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most famous case of chirality mattering in medicine was thalidomide. It was sold in the 1950s as a morning-sickness drug in a mixture of both enantiomers. One enantiomer produced the intended sedative effect, and the other caused the tragic birth defects that pulled the drug from the market. The lesson stuck with the pharmaceutical industry, and chiral synthesis is now a routine part of how drugs are developed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe same principle applies to skin care. The receptors in your skin are chiral, so an ingredient that matches the right handedness will fit; the mirror-image form will not. NuCell® formulas use chirally-correct ingredients where available, even where that raises the cost of the formula, because a topical that fits the skin's chemistry is a topical that works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe chirality story is a general framing for how the NuCell® line is formulated.
