Antioxidants. We talk about them quite often. Definitely an essential element in your skin care regimen. However, how seriously should we take the claims of the antioxidant vitamins and supplements on the market?
Knowing you can ingest antioxidants via the right foods, in addition to topically applying antioxidants, is the addition of a pill really necessary? What you should know is that topical antioxidants only work on the epidermis (the outermost layer of the skin that protects against the environment, making up 20%), not the dermis (the foundation for the epidermis, making up 80%). Personally, I have relied on a solid skin care routine and eating healthy foods. I have yet to take an anti-aging vitamin. But I must say, I am curious. You might just find this in queue for review in the upcoming months. If you are considering purchasing a pill form antioxidant, please consult your doctor first. Make sure to look for the USP (United States Pharmacopoeia) seal on the packaging. This will ensure that the product has been tested and contains the ingredients that are stated on the bottle. If you are not sure which vitamins to look for, consider a list of antioxidants, in addition to referencing this list recommended by Drs. Oz and Murad. Also, you will find the foods associated with these antioxidants.
