As I get older I'm finding that I prefer remedies for things that don't involve drugs or surgeries. I'm more and more turning to alternative therapies and natural solutions for things. I take Nala, the pit bull, for acupuncture. I've started seeing a chiro not only for my back, but my legs and feet. I prefer these things to cortisone shots for my plantar, or the regular steroid I'm supposed to give Nala for her arthritis. I prefer natural.
Along those same lines, I've know for years that what you eat affects your skin. When I was little I went on a carrot kick. I had to have carrots all the time. Well, guess what happened? My skin started to turn orangey. When I stopped eating carrots the orange went away. That taught me that what you eat can have an impact on how your skin looks.
I've also know for years, and have experienced this too, that if you drink lots of water you skin stays hydrated and the cells are plumb full of water. If you don't drink enough the cells get dehydrated and can start to look papery. Well, as is typical, companies are finally catching up to what average folk knew all along. Want beautiful skin? Stay out of the sun, get plenty of rest, drink lots of water, and eat well.
The newest thing in skin care is a newly discovered supplement found in the Gac fruit. The Gac fruit grows on vines all over sub-tropical Asia. It's bright red in color and loaded with antioxidants. The beta-carotene this fruit contains assists in cell rejuvenation, helps boost the immune system, and support the structural integrity of the tissues. It sounds like
R.G. Skin Revitalizer could be a new fountain of youth (I wish :)
As athletic people, we tend to be out in the sun more than most. In addition to sunscreen, you need to eat well to provide the skin all the necessary components to rebuilding itself. So train hard and eat well.
