Nutrients For Healthy Skin Inside and Out

Vitamins, minerals, herbs and other nutrients can give your skin the youthful glow of good health.

It's not always the creams and lotions you use, but what you put into your body that affects your skin as well. Health experts say that vitamins and minerals in all forms play an integral role in a healthy complexion, whether the source is food or supplements.

Your skin is the imprint of what is going on inside your body, and all skin conditions, from psoriasis to acne to aging, are the manifestations of your body's internal needs, including its nutritional needs. Most children are not getting the vitamins and minerals needed. From candy to sodas to fast food, the nutrition we put inside our bodies will reflect on the outside. Some people with severe acne problems are lacking good nutrition. If you feed your skin from the inside out, and practice a balanced skin care regimen, you can't help but notice the benefits.

So, which nutrients do you need to keep your skin healthy and looking its best? Vitamins C, E, A, K, and B complex can all help improve skin health. People who take vitamins C and E in the long term reduced their sunburns from exposure to UVB radiation. Researchers also saw a reduction of factors linked to DNA damage within skin cells, leading them to conclude that antioxidant vitamins help protect against DNA damage.

Green tea can also protect the skin. Excessive exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun is a year-round challenge. Everyone should use an effective and potent sunscreen and limit exposure to ultraviolet radiation. In addition to sunscreen, various studies have shown that both the consumption and topical application of green-tea polyphenols can inhibit the cancer-producing or inflammatory impact of ultraviolet radiation.

Green tea is one of the most ancient and, next to water, the most widely consumed beverages in the world. This humble drink has been highly valued for centuries because of its health-enhancing benefits. It is also rich in antioxidant properties, which can help protect the body from the harmful effects of free radicals. Green tea is a powerful antioxidant and protector of cells, not to mention the energy it will give you on the inside.

Vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other nutrients nourish your skin, whether you take them in supplement form, apply them directly to you skin, or making sure you get enough from the foods you eat.

Smile and be healthy from the inside out.
