Science What Are Ceramides and How Do They Transform Your Skin?
Jun 27, 2025 5 min. read

You’ve probably seen ceramides listed in your favorite moisturizer. But did you know they also work wonders when taken as a supplement? Ceramides are one of the most powerful ingredients for supporting hydrated, youthful-looking skin. And when delivered in the right form, they can do more than any cream ever could.

Let’s break down what ceramides are, how they work, and why taking them in a delicious chocolate form can be the most effective way to boost your glow from the inside out.

🧱 What Are Ceramides?

Ceramides are natural lipids, or fats, that make up over 50 percent of your skin’s outer layer. Think of your skin like a brick wall. The skin cells are the bricks, and ceramides are the mortar that holds everything together. They keep your skin smooth, strong, and most importantly, hydrated.

When your ceramide levels drop, your skin’s barrier weakens. That leads to dryness, flakiness, increased sensitivity, and visible signs of aging.

Unfortunately, ceramide production decreases with age. Factors like cold weather, UV exposure, and stress can make that decline even worse.

💡 Why Topical Ceramides Aren’t Always Enough

While ceramide-rich creams can help support the outermost layer of your skin, they only work on the surface. They do not reach the deeper layers of your skin where hydration loss begins. That’s where oral ceramides come in.

When you ingest ceramides, they enter the bloodstream and travel directly to the deeper skin layers, helping replenish your skin from the inside out.

🌿 The Science Behind Ceramosides™

The ceramides in Sourse Skin Glow Bites come from Ceramosides™, a plant-based complex derived from wheat lipids. They are backed by three gold-standard clinical studies showing dramatic improvements in skin hydration and elasticity in as little as 15 days, while best results are seen from 2 months of consistent use.

Here’s what the research showed: 

  • Skin hydration increased by over 21 percent compared to placebo after 60 days
  • Skin elasticity improved by 26 percent compared to placebo
  • Wrinkle depth reduced by 18 percent in just two weeks
  • Participants also reported less tightness, dryness, and flaking
