Good skin nutrition

Beautiful skin, it want to be a lot of people.

In fact, me too.

So, searching for something nice way.

I found a paper on nutrition that has good effect on the skin.

The nutrients introduced in this paper

・Vitamins A
Carotenoids are vitamin A derivates like β-carotene, astaxanthin, lycopene and retinol, which are all highly effective antioxidants and have been documented to possess photoprotective properties.

・Vitamins C
Vitamins C also named L-ascorbic acid, is water soluble, photosensitive and is the most important antioxidant in the hydrophilic phase.

・Vitamins D
Also suggest an association between skin aging and levels of 25(OH)D3, another precursor of vitamin D.

・Vitamins E
Vitamin C and vitamin E act synergistically.

・Polyphenols
Polyphenols is mainly because of their antioxidant properties.
Many researches on anti-aging have been announced.

・Ubiquinol (Coenzyme Q10)
Ubiquinol is also a well-known powerful antioxidant compound. In the skin, CoQ10 is mainly to be found in the epidermis where it acts in combination with other enzymic and non-enzymic substances as the initial barrier to oxidant assault.

・Pre - and Probiotics
Clinical studies that used probiotic bacteria (Lactobacillus johnsonii NCC 533) to modulate the cutaneous immune homeostasis altered by solar-simulated UV exposure in humans suggest that certain probiotics can help preserve the skin homeostasis by modulating the skin immune system.

・Essential Fatty Acids (Vitamin F)
Higher linoleic acid intakes were associated with a lower likelihood of senile dryness and skin atrophy.

Is this all nutrients?

This is not everything.

As a reason, all the nutrients have not been found yet.

Not all nutrients such as vegetables, fruits and meats, fishes have been elucidated.

In fact, it is written like in this paper.

"It is effective if you eat fruits and vegetables balanced."

I think so.

It can not be said "This is best !! It's OK"

Let's eat more food than keep eating the same food.

The way I am doing

I try to eat soup that contains a lot of vegetables and meats.

It is easy to cut vegetables and meats and put it in a pot.

Please try!!

Thank you for reading.
