DISM Launches Japan’s First Functional Powder Protein Drink with Rhodantheone B for Skin Glycation Stress

ANGFA Co., Ltd.’s men’s skincare brand DISM will launch “DISM Skincare Protein Clear Peach Flavor,” the brand’s first Foods with Function Claims product. The protein drink is described as Japan’s first powdered protein beverage, as a Foods with Function Claims product, containing Rhodantheone B, an ingredient reported to reduce skin glycation stress. It will go on presale through the official store on May 15, 2026, followed by general release on May 22, 2026. According to DISM, skin glycation refers to changes caused when excess sugar binds with proteins, which may make skin appear dull or less firm. Sometimes described as “skin scorching,” it is associated with age, diet, and other lifestyle habits. The new product focuses on this phenomenon and incorporates mangosteen-derived Rhodantheone B into a powdered protein drink. Rhodantheone B has been reported to help maintain skin moisture by reducing glycation stress. Each serving contains 15 grams of protein, along with yeast extract containing glutathione, four vitamins that men tend to lack according to Japanese dietary intake standards, and minerals. The product is positioned not only for people interested in beauty care, but also for those who want to consume protein or manage their health. It has a peach flavor designed for daily use, with attention paid to sweetness, acidity, and aftertaste. The product name is “DISM Skincare Protein Clear Peach Flavor.” It is categorized as a food product, specifically a Foods with Function Claims product. The package contains 280 grams, about two weeks’ worth at 20 grams per serving. The price is 5,445 yen before tax and 5,880 yen including tax. Allergens include milk and soy. Key features include the inclusion of Rhodantheone B, which is reported to help maintain skin moisture; a high-purity WPI whey protein isolate formula made with special filtration technology to remove excess components such as lactose and milk fat; a light, sports-drink-like texture; 15 grams of protein and only 0.16 grams of fat per serving; an all-in-one formula with skin and health support ingredients, vitamins, and minerals; a refreshing peach flavor; and a seven-free formulation without white sugar, sweeteners, gluten, preservatives, antiseptic agents, leavening agents, or colorants. The product is manufactured in an ISO9001-certified factory. Sales channels include ANGFA’s official online store, Rakuten Ichiba, Amazon, Yahoo! Shopping, and other web retailers.
