Inside Out

Inside Out

It has been said that we are what we eat and there is truth in that!! Healthy skin really does start on the inside.  We tend to focus on how our skin looks or feels, but that isn't really the skin's main job.  It is our first line of defense, and it needs a balance of nutrients to function as a healthy barrier that protects the rest of your body from potential harm.  Getting good rest, staying hydrated and including protein, Vitamins A, C & E, Omega 3 fats and Selenium in your diet will help you have strong, healthy, glowing skin.  

Collagen and Antioxidants are the most popular topics in skin support, but inflammation cannot be overlooked as a root cause in many skin challenges.   While there are great topical products all areas, I encourage you to consider enhancing your routine with support from within where the skin cell cycle begins.  The next conversation is inflammation, which can be the root of many skin (and body) challenges. 

Here are my top 10 Skin Supporting Supplements for addressing collagen, antioxidants, minerals, MSM, Vitamin C, and calcium needs as well as the amazing properties of frankincense for healthy cell walls.  My choice is Young Living as they are more bioavailable that anything else I have experienced.

Ningxia Red - This nutrient rich drink is packed with powerful antioxidants and has been clinically shown to support whole-body health and wellness, healthy inflammation response, helps prevent oxidative stress, improve sleep patterns and boost energy.  (Antioxidants go after free radicals so they cannot mess up the balance in our bodies - this is a vital part of living well overall and a big help in skin care)    

Longevity Softgels - one of the most powerful antioxidant supplements available, this potent, proprietary blend of fat-soluble antioxidants provides 700 times the antioxidant power of carrots. Antioxidants help maintain cell integrity and lessen the damaging effects of aging, diet and environment.  Research indicates the essential oils in these supplements can promote healthy cell regeneration which is vital for healthy skin. 

IlluminEyes - Rich in antioxidants from Vitamins A, C & E.  Lutein and zeaxanthin help reduce eye strain, helps protect eyes from damaging blue light rays and maintain vibrant skin.  

Agilease Capsules- supports the body's response to acute inflammation, promotes healthy joint flexibility and mobility, and supports collagen health with UC-II undenatured collagen, hyaluronic acid, and calcium fructoborate from plant minerals.  

Inner Beauty Collagen -every scoop offers a dose of collagen, antioxidants, and other skin supporting ingredients and has no artificial fillers, flavors, colors and sweeteners.  This marine (type I) collagen is more bioavailable and better absorbed by the skin.  Taken daily, this formula reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in as few as 3 weeks.  

Super C Tablets - Vitamin C is an important part of collagen synthesis and overall tissue health which is essential for maintaining skin integrity. Without bioflavonoids vitamin C has a hard time getting inside cells, and without proper electrolyte balance and trace minerals, it will not stay there for long.  I choose Super C Tablets from Young Living because it is properly balanced with rutin, biotin, bioflavonoids, and trace minerals to work synergistically, balance electrolytes, and increase the absorption rate of vitamin C.

Golden Turmeric - this delicious water dissolvable formula (24 times more bioavailable than standard turmeric extract) combines the benefits of high-quality turmeric and prebiotics to support the body's natural response to inflammation, immune response, joint health, mobility and recovery after exercise. 

Sulfurzyme Capsules - Sulfurzyme is a unique combination of MSM and Ningxia Wolfberry offering a powerful support for almost every major function of the body including healthy joints, immune function, skin, hair and nails too.  Sulfur (MSM) is a very important mineral in the human body.  Ningxia wolfberry fruit powder adds an extra boost of antioxidants, including Vitamins C and E which helps the body metabolize the sulfur (MSM).  Research indicates that MSM can equalize water pressure inside cells which can be very helpful for those struggling with bursitis, arthritis, or tendonitis.  An excellent choice for physical wellness and longevity. 

SuperCal Plus capsules - Healthy bone structure is crucial to aging well.  SuperCal Plus is a synergistic, dual action blend of bioavailable calcium, magnesium, and other marine trace minerals derived from red algae harvested off the coast of Iceland.  It promotes healthy bones by supporting the body's ability to restore bone tissue - called osteoclasts - and deposit new bone tissue - called osteoblasts. A common-sense approach to bone health.  

Deep Spectra Phyto Nutrition - this groundbreaking dietary supplement harnesses the antioxidant properties of black seed oil and essential oils extracts to support cell health, immune function and overall wellness. Contains essential fatty acids, vitamins, and trace minerals.  Discover the Deep Spectra technology in this unique delivery of Frankincense and Orange Cacao.
