The recipe for younger looking skin

Aging of the skin is a natural process as the physical body can’t fight Mother Nature or gravity. In addition, the aging process can be accelerated due to factors that come from the environment and others that come from inside the body. Recent research is showing that particular diets and specific supplemental ingredients may assist in the management of aging skin. Collagen and elastin fibers repair themselves every year, so depending on how you feed your skin from the inside, it may help you reverse and even repair some skin damage. Lifestyle factors also play a big role in how your skin looks as you age.

A major feature of aged skin is fragmentation of the collagen matrix.
Collagen fragmentation is responsible for loss of structural integrity and impairment of fibroblast function in aged human skin.1 In aged skin, collapsed fibroblasts (skin cells) produce low levels of collagen and high levels of enzymes in the skin that degrade collagen, whereas when fibroblasts are functioning properly they make several types of collagen fibers and hold together a matrix made of several proteins. All cells replicate to produce new cells. If cells can remain healthy, they will give rise to good cells. Certain ingredients in some foods, herbs and supplements help repair and reverse cellular damage. Most of your organs, including the skin, are regenerated in a relatively short time—if we can keep damage down and build up our bodies with the right nutrients, we look better and feel better.

Vitamin C stimulates collagen synthesis by acting as a cofactor in a chemical reaction of two essential amino acids, which must be derived from the diet (proline and lysine) to form collagen fibers. Vitamin C must be plentiful in the body so skin cells can make collagen and elastin. It also participates in the integrity of connective tissue, cartilage, bone matrix, and tendons, besides being involved in the repair of wounds and scar formation. It also has an anti-inflammatory effect and important antioxidant action preventing formation of free radicals. The antioxidant vitamin C is found in fruits such as acerola, orange, lemon and tangerine and in crude vegetable leaves and tomato. Humans are unable to synthesize vitamin C because we lack a particular enzyme in the liver. Numerous studies show that if vitamin C is taken with fruit components rich in phytonutrients, it is more effective and its value is enhanced. Some forms of vitamin C are better absorbed and utilized than others. 

LifePharm Global has excellent supplement for your use:

IMMUNE+++ contains concentrated flavonoid compounds from several exotic and rare fruits, including acerola and camu camu berries.
The vitamin C used in IMMUNE+++ is a highly effective form shown to have twice the absorption rate, and stays in the blood stream twice as long as traditional forms of vitamin C.

Combine IMMUNE+++ with Laminine for better, stronger and faster effect. How Liminine helps?

The answer is two-fold:
1. Collagen fibers give skin its suppleness and lifting qualities. These fibers last about a year before being replaced with new ones. UV radiation from the sun reaches deep through the skin layers and is powerful enough to break the collagen fibers—this is called photo-aging. It can also damage the nucleus of skin cells, destroying their ability to make collagen and elastin.
Skin cells need essential amino acids in order to make collagen and elastin fibers, which are proteins. The unique fertilized avian egg extract in the Laminine formulation provides the necessary essential amino acids in a free and natural form that is easily absorbed and utilized by skin cells.
2. The unique fertilized avian egg extract in the Laminine formulation provides a concentrated supply of growth factors with one in particular called Fibroblast Growth Factor. This is actually a hormone, which interacts with the fibroblast cells, stimulating them to make collagen. Fibroblast cells lie at the base of the skin matrix and produce collagen and elastin. If these cells are given a “boost” with this hormone, it may help stimulate production of these anti-aging components of the skin. 

By including the "Skin Duo" of Laminine and IMMUNE+++ into your daily regimen, you can help slow down the natural process of aging skin. The vitamin C used in IMMUNE+++ is a highly effective form shown to have twice the absorption rate, and stays in the blood stream twice as long as traditional forms of vitamin C, while the Fibroblast Growth Factor in Laminine interacts with fibroblast skin cells, stimulating them to make collagen. Laminine and IMMUNE+++ are such an easy, cost-effective approach to skin care, and you'll look and feel youthful, longer!

What else you can do....
  -  Stay out of the sun and use sunscreen.
  -  Eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables.

Stay young and healthy!
