What do you feed your skin?
Did you know that what you eat may be reflected in your face? To maximize your skin's appearance start with eating properly or adding supplements to your daily regimen. Dermatologists Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields recommend the following if taking a daily supplement:
Vitamin D3 (1,000 IU)
Folic Acid (400 mcg)
Magnesium (400 mcg)
Iron (10 - 15 mg) unless you are post-menopausal
Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids
Calcium citrate (1,000-1,500 mg)
It is always best to get your nutrition requirements through food, if possible. Of course, always consult your doctor with any questions or concerns.
Tip: Avoid long hot showers. They draw moisture away from your skin and can cause itchy skin, as well.
