Clear And Radiant Skin is sometimes a bit difficult to achieve. In this post, we discuss how to get radiant skin from the food you eat. When we eat, our body pulls nutrients from our food and uses those nutrients to treat, repair, and build our skin. When you are deficient in certain nutrients, it will show on your skin. This is why so many people now use supplements to help their skin. Nowadays, CBD skincare is really taking off, as it helps to reduce inflammation and redness, which is what most of us want to get rid of. In addition, broad spectrum CBD oils are thought to be beneficial for treating acne scars, helping to reduce inflammation, and treating body aches and anxiety. Websites like CFAH discuss this in more depth, but in our blog today, we will talk about some of the best vitamins to take to help give you clear skin. You can take these vitamins through food, supplements, or by applying them topically via skincare products.
Here Are Some Of The Best Vitamins That Give You Clear Skin
Vitamin A: Retinol, the best anti-aging skincare ingredient, is a derivative of vitamin a. You can find vitamin a in foods like yogurt, eggs, salmon, sweet potato, spinach, liver, and tomatoes. Vitamin A works by penetrating deep into the dermis (2nd layer) of the skin and repairing damaged skin cells deep in the skin. It also treats the epidermis (1st layer) of the skin. Vitamin A exfoliates the skin by removing dead skin cells to reveal new and radiant skin. Dead skin cells make the skin dull and give the skin a rough appearance; vitamin a removes all the dead skin cells and makes the skin appear clear and smooth. Vitamin A also helps the skin to produce collagen and elastin, reducing wrinkles and fine lines. It tightens saggy skin and makes the skin appear youthful. If you have sun-damaged skin, vitamin a will heal your skin and prevent further sun damage to the skin by blocking harmful UV sun rays.
Vitamin C: Foods rich in vitamin c includes papaya, strawberry, kiwis, green pepper, red pepper, cantaloupe, broccoli, mangoes, cauliflower, and kale. Vitamin C is one of the powerful antioxidants used in skincare products. Antioxidants are substances that destroy free radicals. Free radicals are harmful to the skin because they cause the skin to age prematurely and damage the skin cells, causing wrinkles and fine lines. A good skincare product that contains vitamin c will protect your skin from free radicals and remove pigmentation from your skin to give you clear and radiant skin. Vitamin C treats acne scars and hyperpigmentation by interfering with the pigmentation process through tyrosinase inhibition of the melanin pigment pathway. This process fades dark spots and hyperpigmentation. Vitamin C also speeds cell turnover to reveal new skin cells, i.e., new skin.
Vitamin B3: Niacinamide derived from vitamin b3 is a powerful ingredient for people who suffer from oily/acne-prone skin. These are some foods that you get vitamin b3 from – liver, chicken breast, tuna, turkey, and salmon. In addition, Vitamin b3 works to balance the sebum production in the skin, leading to treating acne. Also, Vitamin b3 evens out the skin tone, minimizes lines, and minimizes pores on the skin. Finally, Vitamin b3 is also a potent antioxidant that protects the skin from harmful environmental toxins.
Vitamin K: Indulging more in green leafy vegetables will give you lots of the nutrient vitamin k. These vegetables are choke-full of vitamin k kale, green leaf lettuce, cabbage, avocado, okra, and cucumber. Vitamin K works by healing wounds in the skin, thereby causing new skin cells to appear, making the skin look clear, smooth, and radiant.
Vitamin D: You can get natural vitamin d by sitting in the sun during the day for at least 30 minutes (make sure you wear sunscreen when you head out). But, if you are not keen on sitting in the sun, you can still get your vitamin d from these foods – sardines, egg yolk, shrimp, salmon, raw milk, mackerel, and oysters. Vitamin d works by healing wounds in your skin. If you have redness or inflamed skin, vitamin d will treat your skin, revealing clear and smooth skin. Vitamin D also works to turn over your skin cells; this process reveals new skin cells, revealing radiant and even-toned skin.
A diet filled with these vitamins will help you achieve clear and radiant skin in no time.
