The skin is the largest organ in the human body and reflects the state of health of the organism. It is responsible for protecting us from the external environment, defending us from mechanical, chemical, biological hazards, ultraviolet radiation and dehydration.
Because it is exposed daily, the skin is subject to environmental damage that leads to premature aging, hyperpigmentation, dehydration and even skin diseases.
Aging is a complex mechanism, influenced by external factors (radiation, diet, alcohol and smoking) and intrinsic factors linked to genetic factors.
There has been investment in alternatives that allow the maintenance of skin health, concluding the need to nourish it through a DIVERSIFIED AND BALANCED DIET since the substances present in food have a direct impact on delaying skin aging.
Therefore, macro and micronutrients effectively collaborate in the MAINTENANCE and even REVERSAL of damage caused to human skin, such as: loss of elasticity, reduction of fibers and dehydration. The inclusion of these components - whether through diet or in COSMETIC FORMULATIONS - proves to be useful and beneficial in anti-aging strategies, helping to maintain the health and beauty of the skin.
