Product Information
What is Shade Factor™?
Life Extension's Shade Factor™ is a dietary supplement in capsule form formulated with niacinamide (vitamin B3), Polypodium leucotomos extract, and Red Orange Complex®. This oral supplement is used as an adjunct to topical sun protection and is intended for use before and during sun exposure. The vegetarian capsules are designed as a practical daily supplement and will not wash off when swimming or sweating. Shade Factor™ capsules combine carefully selected plant extracts with a high dose of niacin in the form of nicotinamide, fitting into a targeted formula for use around UV exposure.
