Our Service - What We Offer Under Wellness at NAGER London
At NAGER London, wellness isn’t a trend — it’s a personalised, measurable journey.
We offer a unique science-led service that gives you insight into your nutritional health using BioPhotonic Scanner. This non-invasive scan measures carotenoid levels in your skin — a reliable indicator of how well your body is absorbing key antioxidants from food and supplements.
From there, we guide you with practical recommendations tailored to your needs — whether that’s optimising your diet, exploring high-quality supplement support or simply understanding how your lifestyle choices are affecting your biology.
Our wellness tools are designed to:
Support energy and recovery
Promote skin health from the inside out
Enhance long-term vitality and resilience
This is wellness you can track — grounded in data, aligned with your goals, and built around your real-life routine.
From Colourful Foods to Cellular Health: Why Carotenoids Matter More Than You Think
We often hear about antioxidants and how they help fight oxidative stress but a few people realise that one particular group—carotenoids—might just be the most telling reflection of your nutritional health.
Found in bright-coloured fruits and vegetables like carrots, tomatoes and leafy greens, carotenoids don’t just make your plate pretty. They’re nature’s way of protecting your cells—a built-in defence system against free radicals.
What the Latest Research Says about Carotenoids
Over the past few years, researchers have been digging deeper into carotenoids and the findings are nothing short of fascinating:
1. Natural Antioxidants with Real Impact
A comprehensive review published in Antioxidants found that carotenoids like beta-carotene, lycopene, lutein and zeaxanthin play critical roles in reducing oxidative damage. They’re not just passive pigments—they actively quench free radicals and support your body’s own antioxidant systems (like Nrf2 and glutathione).
2. Visible Benefits, Especially for Skin and Eyes
A 2023 review in the Royal Society of Chemistry highlighted that carotenoids are highly concentrated in areas like the macula (supporting vision) and the skin, helping to shield tissues from UV and pollution damage. This makes carotenoids an inside-out approach to healthier skin—something you can literally glow with.
3. Supplements That Actually Work
In a large 2022 meta-analysis published in Frontiers in Nutrition, oral carotenoid supplements significantly improved antioxidant levels in the blood (as measured by FRAP and ORAC markers) within just 8 weeks. These weren’t just lab results—they showed real-life, measurable improvements in people’s biology.
4. Future-Facing Research
Right now, over 190 clinical trials are exploring carotenoids for everything from cardiovascular and cognitive function to immune health and gut microbiome balance. As noted in a recent overview on PubMed, this surge in interest shows that we’re only beginning to understand how powerful these compounds really are.
Carotenoids and You: Why Measurement Matters
At NAGER London, we combine science and simplicity. While we don’t make medical claims, we do offer a service that helps you check in with your body’s antioxidant status—using a scanner developed with the same technology found in labs that created the artificial heart.
Our BioPhotonic Scanner gives you a non-invasive, personalised carotenoid score in just 30 seconds. This is your snapshot of how well your body is absorbing and utilising the colourful, protective nutrients you eat (or supplement).
In Simple Terms: Why This Matters
• Eating more colourful fruit and veg = more carotenoids
• More carotenoids = stronger antioxidant defences
• Stronger defences = less oxidative stress (which is linked to premature ageing, fatigue, and more)
• Measurable carotenoid score = real insight into your nutritional health
