1. 1000mg Biotin: Helps maintain Skin and Hair Health
The most important B vitamin is biotin, a nutrient that forms the basis of skin, nail, and hair cells. Without adequate amounts, you may end up with dermatitis (an itchy, scaly skin reaction) or sometimes even hair loss. Even a mild deficiency causes symptoms. Topical preparations containing B vitamins are coming to the market. These creams can help give skin an almost instant healthy glow while hydrating cells and increasing overall tone. Niacin, a specific B vitamin, helps skin retain moisture, so creams containing this nutrient can help your complexion look plumper and younger in as little as six days. Niacin also has anti-inflammatory properties to soothe dry, irritated skin. In higher concentrations it can also work as a lightening agent to even out blotchy skin tone.
2. 1000mg Vitamin C + one 8oz. Glass of Simple Orange Orange Juice with Lots of Pulp: Along with Vitamin E, this helps to reduce the damage caused by free-radicals (harmful products of sun, pollutants, smoke, etc)
You can also try a topical vitamin C cream to encourage collagen production, just as your body does naturally when you are young. The trick here is to use a formulation containing the L-ascorbic acid form of vitamin C, the only one that can penetrate skin layers and do the job.
3. 400 IU Vitamin E: can help reduce photodamage, wrinkles, and improve skin texture. Long-term study shows that people who continue to take Vitamin E and C reduce DNA damage within the skin cells.
*NOTE: Too much vitamin E can be harmful
4. 2500mg B-12: Energy and Metabolism Boost
5. Centrum Multi-Vitamin
6. Vitamin A: necessary for the maintenance and repair of the skin, even having just a just not quite enough can cause dry, flaky, dull skin
Topical vitamin A is the form that makes a real difference in your skin. Medical studies show a reduction in lines and wrinkles, good acne control, and some psoriasis relief, all from using creams containing this nutrient. topically applied retinol plus vitamin C demonstrated a "reversal of skin alterations
7. Calcium: cause I dont tolerate milk very well
8. Soothing Vitamin E Oil Topical Agent For Skin 12,000 IU
*DO NOT INGEST
So Im going on month 3 now with the vitamin regimen and I already notice a huge difference in my skin's appearance. My skin is not as dull as it was, it now has a nice glow to it, my breakouts are occurring less often, and above all I feel like I am taking better care of myself, and everyone needs to take better care of themselves these days and we have so many options available to us, but if you start with something as easy as vitamins, you may be really surprised by the results!
