What Is Crystal Cell and What Does It Contain?
Crystal Cell is a fruit-derived powder supplement from PhytoScience, supplied as single-serve sachets emptied under the tongue rather than swallowed with water. One pack contains 14 sachets of 1250mg, sealed in a resealable white pouch. It is bought mainly by adults who want a simple, portable daily source of berry and tomato-derived plant compounds without taking capsules.
The formula is built on fruit. Blackcurrant juice powder is the first ingredient by weight, followed by dextrose, acai berry extract, blueberry powder and tomato fruit extract. Two cultured plant-cell ingredients complete the list — PhytoCellTec Grape Stem Cell and PhytoCellTec Apple Stem Cell — and these are why the product is described as a plant stem cell supplement.
The pack carries a nutrition facts panel rather than a supplement facts panel, which is how food-type products are labelled, and every one of the seven ingredients is plant-derived. This is a food product — a fruit-based powder supplement — not a medicine. It is intended to support general health and wellbeing, not to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. You can see the rest of the range on our PhytoScience brand page.
What Are “Crystal Cells”, and Is This the Same as Stem Cell Therapy?
Crystal Cell is a product name, not a description of a cell inside the sachet, and it has no connection to medical stem cell therapy. Plant cells and human cells are not interchangeable: a cultured apple or grape cell cannot take up residence in human tissue or become a human cell. (The term also has a separate meaning in biology, where crystal cells are a type of fruit-fly blood cell — unrelated to this product.)
What the sachets contain is fruit powder plus two ingredients grown by plant cell culture. Nothing in the pack is derived from human or animal tissue, and nothing in it is administered the way a clinical stem cell treatment is.
What Does Crystal Cell Do?
Crystal Cell works as a convenient daily serving of fruit-derived plant compounds. Blackcurrant and blueberry are recognised dietary sources of anthocyanins, the pigments that give dark berries their colour; acai is a widely used tropical fruit extract; and tomato is a dietary source of the carotenoids phytoene and phytofluene. Taking them as a sachet is simply an easy way to include them in a daily routine.
The two PhytoCellTec ingredients come from a genuine Swiss biotechnology: Mibelle Biochemistry grows plant cells under sterile conditions from a rare Swiss apple variety, the Uttwiler Spätlauber, and from a Burgundy grape cultivar, then dries the biomass into a powder — a sustainable method, since it yields material from rare plants without harvesting them.
An honest note on the evidence. These two PhytoCellTec ingredients were originally developed as cosmetic actives for creams and serums, and the published research behind them — on skin-cell vitality and on the appearance of fine lines — comes from applying them to skin rather than from swallowing them. A food-grade version of the apple ingredient has since been assessed for safety in adult food supplements in the European Union. We think you should know where the science comes from before you buy, rather than after. The manufacturer’s own technical description is on the Mibelle Biochemistry PhytoCellTec page.
What Are the Key Benefits of Crystal Cell?
- Provides a daily serving of blackcurrant, acai berry and blueberry-derived plant compounds, including the anthocyanin pigments found in dark berries
- Supplies tomato fruit extract, a dietary source of the carotenoids phytoene and phytofluene
- Contributes to a diet that regularly includes polyphenol-rich fruits, which most adults eat less of than they intend to
- Supports a consistent daily wellness routine for adults who dislike swallowing capsules or tablets
- Helps maintain that routine while travelling — the sachets need no water, spoon, refrigeration or measuring
- Contains no fat, no cholesterol and no sodium, at 5 calories per sachet, according to the label panel
One limit is worth stating plainly: the pack declares no quantity for any individual ingredient, so no specific antioxidant or skin claim can be measured against a recognised standard. We describe what the product contains rather than promise an outcome.
What Are the Ingredients in Crystal Cell?
Ingredients are printed on the pack in descending order of weight. The third column describes what each item is, and nothing more.
| As printed on the pack | Order | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Blackcurrant Juice Powder | 1 | Dried juice of Ribes nigrum, a berry containing anthocyanin pigments |
| Dextrose | 2 | Glucose; a simple sugar used as a bulking agent and sweetener |
| Acai Berry Extract | 3 | Extract of Euterpe oleracea, a South American palm fruit |
| Blueberry Powder | 4 | Dried Vaccinium berry containing anthocyanin pigments |
| Tomato Fruit Extract | 5 | Extract of Solanum lycopersicum, containing the carotenoids phytoene and phytofluene |
| PhytoCellTec Grape Stem Cell | 6 | Cultured cell biomass from Vitis vinifera, produced by plant cell culture |
| PhytoCellTec Apple Stem Cell | 7 | Cultured cell biomass from Malus domestica, produced by plant cell culture |
Nutrition and Label Information
Copied from the panel on the back of the pack, per 1.25g sachet.
| Serving size | 1.25g (one sachet) |
|---|---|
| Sachets per pack | 14 |
| Calories | 5 (0 from fat) |
| Total fat | 0g |
| Saturated fat | 0g |
| Trans fat | 0g |
| Cholesterol | 0mg |
| Sodium | 0mg |
| Total carbohydrate | 1g |
| Dietary fibre | 0g |
| Sugars | 1g |
| Protein | 0g |
| Vitamin A / Vitamin C / Calcium / Iron | 0% daily value each |
Two figures are worth reading twice. The panel records 1g of the 1.25g sachet as carbohydrate, all of it sugars, with dextrose listed second in the ingredients. And every percentage daily value is zero — so Crystal Cell is a fruit-derived supplement rather than a multivitamin, and is best paired with one if vitamin support is what you need.
How Do You Take Crystal Cell?
The direction printed on the pack is short: empty the sachet under your tongue and drink more water. Tear it across the notch, tip the powder directly beneath the tongue and let it dissolve rather than chewing or swallowing it dry. It needs no mixing and no refrigeration, which is what makes it easy to keep up while travelling.
The pack does not print a daily frequency or a preferred time of day, and we will not invent one. Follow any usage guidance Phyto Science or your supplier has given you, and if you have none, ask a pharmacist or doctor how often to take it before you start. Reseal the pouch after removing a sachet.
Best Results Routine
Whatever frequency you settle on, take it at roughly the same point each day so it becomes a habit, and keep water intake up as the pack direction suggests. Treat it as an addition to a diet that already includes fruit and vegetables, and pair it with the basics that genuinely affect skin and general wellbeing — sleep, sun protection and hydration. Results vary between individuals. Supplements are intended to support a healthy diet and lifestyle, not to replace them.
Who Is Crystal Cell For?
- Adults who want a low-effort daily supplement derived from fruit
- People who find capsules and tablets difficult to swallow
- Frequent travellers and busy professionals who need something portable
- Adults building a skin and wellness routine who understand that diet is one contributor among several
Who Should Avoid Crystal Cell or Check First?
- Under-18s. Recs-Medix supplies this product to adults only. Cultured plant-cell ingredients of this type are authorised for use in food supplements for adults, and we apply an adults-only policy accordingly.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women. Speak to your doctor or midwife before using any supplement containing cultured plant-cell ingredients.
- Anyone with a fruit or plant allergy. The pack contains blackcurrant, acai, blueberry and tomato, and cultured plant-cell ingredients can contain proteins not present in the ordinary fruit. If you react to berries, apples, grapes or nightshade vegetables, avoid this product.
- People managing blood sugar. Each sachet contains 1g of sugars. The amount is small, but count it rather than ignore it.
- Anyone on prescription medication or managing a medical condition. Check with your pharmacist or doctor first.
The pack prints no cautions beyond storage and keeping it away from children. An absence of warnings on a label is not evidence that a product suits everyone, which is why the guidance above is broader than the pack.
What Crystal Cell Does Not Do
It is not a substitute for anything your doctor has prescribed, and it is not a treatment for any condition. The evidence available for its cultured plant-cell ingredients comes from topical use, and does not establish that taking them by mouth changes skin structure — so it should be seen as an addition to a skincare and diet routine rather than a replacement for sun protection, sleep or a balanced diet. Nothing taken by mouth works instantly.
How Should You Store Crystal Cell?
Store the pack in a cool, dry place below 30°C, away from direct sunlight, and keep it out of reach of children, exactly as the pack instructs. Press the resealable strip closed after taking a sachet so the remaining ones stay dry, and do not decant them into another container. Check the batch and expiry codes printed at the base of the back panel when your pack arrives.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crystal Cell
Is Crystal Cell the same as stem cell therapy?
No. Medical stem cell therapy involves human cells administered under clinical supervision. Crystal Cell is a fruit powder food supplement containing two ingredients grown from plant cells. Plant cells cannot become human cells, and the product does not treat, cure or prevent any condition.
What does tomato extract do?
Tomato is a dietary source of carotenoids, the pigment family that includes phytoene and phytofluene. Crystal Cell does not declare how much tomato extract each sachet contains, so we cannot state what one sachet provides.
Is it safe to take plant stem cell supplements?
Cultured plant-cell ingredients have been assessed as safe for adult food supplements at authorised levels of use. Safe is not the same as effective, and because this pack declares no ingredient quantities you cannot check what you are taking against an assessed level. Anyone pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18, allergic to the listed fruits or taking prescription medication should not use it without medical advice.
How long does it take to notice anything?
There is no defined timeframe, because the pack makes no dosed claim to measure against and declares no ingredient quantities. We would rather say that plainly than offer a number we cannot support.
Does Crystal Cell contain sugar?
Yes. Each 1.25g sachet contains 1g of carbohydrate, recorded entirely as sugars, and dextrose is the second ingredient by weight. That is roughly a quarter of a teaspoon — small, but worth knowing if you monitor sugar intake.
Can you take it alongside other supplements or medicines?
There is no interaction warning on the pack and the fruit ingredients are foods. Even so, because quantities are not declared, ask your pharmacist or doctor before combining it with prescription medication or with other concentrated fruit or carotenoid supplements.
Does Recs-Medix ship Crystal Cell internationally?
Yes — by DHL Express to the USA, UK, Canada, the EU and Australia, with tracking from dispatch. Full timings and costs for every destination are set out on our shipping and delivery page linked above.
