    How to achieve healthy skin with good nutrition

    What is the skin's elasticity and structure made of?

    Basically, it is made of fibres such as collagen and elastin .

    Why do we get wrinkles and pre mature aging?

    It is due to the skin damage that comes from free radicals -harmful by products  of smoke, pollution and sunlight.


    Vitamins and minerals that can help to achieve good skin 

    Vitamin C
    Found in citrus fruits , leafy green vegetables and peppers that are known to aid collagen production . Vitamin  C supplements are readily available in tablet or powder form.

    Vitamin E
    Found in vegetable oil, nuts , olives ,seeds and certain green vegetables such as spinach . Supplements can top up vitamin e needs for the skin .

    Vitamin A 
    Essential for skin repair and cell reproduction and is found in fruits and vegetables. Acne and psoriasis condition can also be improved by supplementing with Vitamin A.

    Essential Fatty Acids
    Helpful for skin that is prone to becoming dry, inflamed and has white or black heads. Omega 3 is found in oily fish such as sardines and Omega 6 comes from poultry , grains and coooking oils. Omega 3 should be eaten regularly or taken as supplements from fish oil soft gel capsules if lacking in your diet

    Minerals and Antioxidants

    Zinc
    Acne  is sometimes due to a deficiency in zinc which can be improved  by eating food that contains zinc such as poultry and lean meat. Copper helps to develop the elastin fibres that support the skin's structure.

    Antioxidants 
    Catechins( from green tea leave extract) and Alpha lipoic Acid are more potent than vitamins C and E and protect the skin from free radicals. Other antioxidants  such as grape seed extract , citrus bioflavonoids, beta-carotene  & lyco pene are also proven to be beneficial.


    So be more aware of what you eat  because it reflects on the skin's appearance. A combination of a good diet , plenty of water and dietary supplements can keep the skin healthy and looking years younger.

    Constipation and how to treat constipation

    Constipation, costiveness, or irregularity, is a condition of the digestive system in which a person (or animal) experiences hard feces that are difficult to expel. This usually happens because the colon absorbs too much water from the food. If the food moves through the gastro-intestinal tract too slowly, the colon may absorb too much water, resulting in feces that are dry and hard. Defecation may be extremely painful, and in severe cases (fecal impaction) lead to symptoms of bowel obstruction. The term obstipation is used for severe constipation that prevents passage of both stools and gas. Causes of constipation may be dietary, hormonal, anatomical, a side effect of medications (e.g. some opiates), or an illness or disorder. Treatments consist of changes in dietary and exercise habits, the use of laxatives, and other medical interventions depending on the underlying cause.

    How to treat constipation:
    1) Drink more water
    2) Try drinking green tea, fruit juices.
    3) Exercise more.
    4) Eat more fibre like fruits and vegetables.
