This is not an overnight quick fix, but nutrition can have a huge impact on how your skin ages!
First the must-have foundations:
✔️ Water (to hydrate the skin)
✔️ Protein (as a building block for collagen & elastin)
✔️ Fruits & Veg (for antioxidants to block free radical damage)
✔️ Healthy Fats (to keep inflammation in check)
Then the targeted nutrient supplements:
✔️ Collagen (supports skin firmness and elasticity)
✔️ Antioxidants like curcumin, pomegranate, and green tea (support antioxidant defenses)
✔️ Omega-3s (support healthy inflammation & defenses against sun damage)
Here’s the thing:
If you jump to the supplements without first having the foundations of a skin-healthy diet in place, you won’t get the results you deserve.
If you want to dial in a plan to support your unique skin health and maintain youthful skin—given your biochemistry, goals, and vulnerabilities—our functional approach is for you.
