How nutritional supplements support our appearance from the inside
Share
Our skin reflects the body's general health. We know that vitamins can affect the health of the skin, but which vitamins really work? Which are the best vitamins for skin care? How do supplements support our skin's beauty from the inside?
Vitamin C and vitamin E are two powerful antioxidants that help protect cells from damage. Both vitamins are often used as ingredients in beauty products and cosmetics.
Vitamin C is the best serum, which is known to improve the skin's structure through hydration. This ultimately reduces the appearance of fine lines. Vitamin C also has anti-inflammatory benefits, which reduces redness and inflamed skin spots. It provides added value by protecting the skin from the sun's UVA and UVB rays. A body with sufficient amounts of vitamin C heals quickly from wounds. Aarja Health's Vitamin C 500 contains zinc , which also maintains healthy hair and healthy nails.
Vitamin C is found in the outer and inner layers of our skin, called the epidermis and dermis. It acts as a building block for collagen, the naturally occurring protein in our bodies, which is crucial for skin, connective tissue and joints. Collagen makes up many percent of the proteins in our bodies. After 30 years, when our bodies age, the production of collagen decreases.
When considering a collagen supplement, use your own hydrolyzed collagen type II for easy absorption, such as Aarja Health's Collagen with tall bark . Each tablet contains 20 mg of pine bark extract, which comes from pure forests in Finnish Lapland and is full of natural antioxidants. The Scandinavians have been brewing for centuries to get these healthy benefits.
Vitamin E is praised for its ability to fight free radicals, by protecting us from skin-disturbing substances, including air pollution and cigarette smoke. The antioxidants in vitamin E protect the skin against damage from the sun's rays. The skin's natural oils or sebum give the skin a moisturizing balance. Dry skin can, however, get a boost with a vitamin E supplement. Like vitamin C, vitamin E has strong anti-inflammatory properties.
Vitamin D is known as the sunshine vitamin. The skin absorbs it by staying outdoors. The kidneys and liver make it possible for vitamin D to spread throughout the body. The outer layer of skin cells or keratinocytes are the same cells that form vitamin D. This vitamin is absolutely necessary for skin cell growth. Studies have shown that it can help clear up skin conditions such as psoriasis or eczema.
It is important to take vitamin D as many of us do not spend enough time outdoors, especially during the winter months. Try Vitamin D3 + Lingon for another healthy and tasty chewable supplement from Aarja Health. Each tablet contains 100 mcg (4000 IU) of bioavailable vitamin D3 for a single intake.
Adding healthy fats to your diet, such as Omega-3 krill oil , gives your skin a beauty boost. With its ability to relieve dryness, reduce redness and inflammation , Omega-3 krill oil can lead to supple and radiant skin. While most Omega-3 supplements come from fish and shellfish, there are vegan forms such as Aarja Health's Vegan Omega-3 , which uses oil from microalgae.
The introduction of the nourishing vitamins C and E as well as collagen supplements and Omega-3 are the first steps towards healthy skin. Beauty is truly built from within.
