Frequently Asked Questions
What are Ceramides, and how do they benefit the skin?
Ceramides are natural lipids (fats) that make up over 50% of the skin’s outer barrier. They help lock in moisture, protect against environmental stressors, and maintain smooth, hydrated skin. As we age, natural ceramide levels drop, which can lead to dryness, fine lines, and skin irritation.
What makes Deva Nutrition’s Ceramide supplement unique?
Most ceramide supplements on the market are derived from animal sources or conventional wheat. Deva Nutrition uses a 100% vegan, plant-derived phytoceramide formula packed into vegetable capsules, certified by The Vegan Society. It is designed to support skin moisture and barrier health from the inside out.
Is this product gluten-free?
Always check the specific lot label on your bottle, but Deva’s phytoceramides are typically derived from sweet potatoes, rice, or gluten-free plant sources (or processed to remove gluten). Refer to the product packaging for allergen statements if you have celiac disease or severe gluten sensitivity.
Are there any animal-derived ingredients or gelatin in the capsule?
No. The capsule shell is made from plant cellulose (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose), and all active and inactive ingredients are 100% vegan and cruelty-free.
How do I take this supplement?
Take 1 capsule daily with water, preferably alongside a meal, or as directed by your healthcare provider.
How many servings are in one bottle?
Each bottle contains 60 capsules, which provides a 2-month supply when taken at the recommended dose of one capsule per day.
How long does it take to see results?
Oral phytoceramides work systemically, so results vary by individual. Many users notice improvements in skin hydration and softness within 3 to 6 weeks of consistent daily use.
Can I take this if I am pregnant or nursing?
Do not take if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medications, or have an underlying medical condition, consult your doctor or healthcare professional before adding any new dietary supplement to your routine.
Are there any known side effects?
Oral phytoceramides are generally well-tolerated. Minor digestive discomfort can occasionally occur with any new supplement. Discontinue use and consult a physician if you experience any adverse reactions.
How should I store this product?
Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, excess heat, and humidity. Keep out of reach of children. Do not use if the safety seal under the cap is broken or missing.
