In-vivo Efficacy Data: ACB Kale Protein Blend
Protocol:
Materials & Methods:
2.0% ACB Kale Protein Blend vs. a control shampoo
2.0% ACB Kale Protein Blend vs. a control conditioner
Sensory evaluation was conducted for baseline, participants rated hair 1-10
½ Subject’s head washed with control, ½ washed with ACB Kale Protein Blend
Subject’s hair was dried using round brush and hair dryer
Sensory evaluation was conducted for each side, participants rated hair 1-10
Purpose: To determine whether ACB Kale Protein Blend enhances shine, dry and wet combability, manageability and smoothness of the hair in addition to volume, conditioning, and moisturization

treated fibroblasts expressed in terms of percent of control.
Protocol• Human dermal fibroblasts were
seeded into 96-well tissue culture plates
• Concentrations: 1.00%, 0.10%, 0.01%
• Ten microliters of viability reagent was added to 90µL of cell culture media in culture wells
• ACB Kale Protein Blend exhibited comparable results by increasing cell metabolism
