Even Your Skin Needs to Take Vitamins

Our body needs a significant daily vitamins intake. Our skin's health depends to on many essential vitamins.
Vitamin A
This vitamin known as beta-caroten is great for your eyes. But Vitamin A is very important for the skin as well as it helps repair and protect the skin tissue. Vitamin
A deficiency is immediately shown through a dry and flaky skin. Small imbalances or big drops in the optimum required amount of this vitamin will be flagged by the body immediately. The foods that can help you improve your Vitamin A levels are fruits and veggies.
Not only the foods are a source of vitamin A but also creams and lotions can provide a beta-caroten supplement. These creams help controlling acne and wrinkles as well as avoiding psoriasis. A derivate of Vitamin A is used to produce Retinol which is a key ingredient in anti-aging treatment products. Retinol combined with Vitamin C is used to treat skin changes due to chronological aging and photo-aging.
Vitamin B Complex
The most prominent component of Vitamin B Complex is Biotin. Biotin is a nutrient essential to hair, nail and skin health. Eggs, salmon, rice, bananas, oatmeal are rich natural sources of Biotin. Our own bodies produce it as well in liver and kidneys. Vitamin B Complex deficiencies lead to skin itchiness, skin rashes, and hair loss.
Biotin skin supplements are available in cosmetic cream to help restore the skin aspect and moisturize it. Niacin is another B vitamin that helps moisturize the skin.
Using such cream for a week can give your skin back its natural moisture while relieving any itch like symptoms.
Vitamins C an E
Long and frequent exposures to sunlight can lead to skin cancer Vitamin C is the one that protects the skin against it. Vitamin E works against wrinkles and photo damage.
The daily dosage to prevent the skin damage and enhance its texture is approximately 400mg Vitamin E.

These two vitamins protect skin cells against DNA damage. This is why antioxidants are so appreciated by researchers and doctors.

Vitamin C and E reduce the damage free radicals cause to the skin. Free radicals are byproducts of smoke, alcohol, pollution and damage the structure of the skin by affecting the collagen and elastin.

Products based on these two vitamins make skin look healthier by restoring and protecting its essential components.

Natural sources of Vitamin C :
broccoli, lemons, oranges, grape fruits, cauliflower
just to list a few.
Over the counter Vitamin C supplements are desired to bring this vitamin's levels to at list a daily minimum intake.

Natural sources of Vitamin E :
nuts, spinach, asparagus, olives, natural oils

Creams and pills can supplement your Vitamin E levels up to a minimum of 400 mg daily. Vitamin E dosage should be carefully watched as too much can be harmful.

Vitamin K
