    Which nutrients are good for skin?

    in General Discussions

    Do you want to stop the passage of time? To do this, you need to incorporate foods into your diet to look and feel younger. As we have mentioned on our site, there are some foods that, in addition to taking care of your health, will help you keep your skin shiny, firm and without wrinkles for longer. Find out what they are, and fill your plate with the best anti-aging treatments.

    Like it or not, aging is a fact of life. That doesn't mean we can't age gracefully, though, and look beautiful and young, no matter what decade of life we're in.

    Your skin is a complex, three-layered organ that is exposed to both intrinsic factors (within the body) and extrinsic factors (environmental) that make it appear discolored, sagging, wrinkled and aged. Fortunately, we can combat much of what makes our skin appear aged by using what we choose to include in our daily diet.

    Nutrients for skin health

    As mentioned above, your skin is an active organ, as are your heart, liver, and kidneys. However, unlike the rest of your organs, your skin is exposed to damaging environmental elements such as UV rays, pollution, toxins, chemicals, and extreme weather conditions. Proper nutrition will protect and create healthy, younger-looking skin.

    Antioxidants

    Antioxidants like vitamin C, E, A, beta-carotene, polyphenols, and flavonoids fight oxidative damage caused by free radicals and sun exposure. They also play a role in the synthesis of collagen, which provides structure and elasticity to our skin. Antioxidants suppress inflammation and can protect against photoaging.

    Vitamin D

    Recent studies have shown that this vitamin is important for much more than bone health. Research shows that vitamin D can actually protect your skin from UV-induced cell death, which not only makes your skin look older, but can also lead to skin cancer.

    Prebiotics and probiotics

    Just as your gut has important bacteria in it, keeping it healthy and working well, so does your skin. Including pre-and probiotics in your diet is essential for the microbiota and immune function of your skin cells, preventing skin diseases and aging.
