Nutrition and dietary factors for skin health

Overview

Research indicates that specific dietary choices can support skin health, boost collagen production, and mitigate damage from environmental stressors such as UV radiation, pollution, and temperature changes.

Key nutritional components identified include carotenoids—found in colorful fruits and vegetables like carrots, peppers, and tomatoes—which accumulate in skin tissue to provide protection against ultraviolet rays and assist in the synthesis of collagen and hyaluronic acid. Vitamin C from citrus fruits and mangoes is also noted for its role in collagen synthesis. Healthy fats from sources like fish oil, nuts, and seeds are highlighted for maintaining the skin’s moisture barrier.

Recent findings also emphasize the gut-skin connection through fermented foods and the potential longevity benefits of the flavonoid luteolin. As an antioxidant, luteolin may reduce inflammation and influence NAD+ levels, which are considered vital to healthy aging processes.
