You can spend thousands on La Mer cream, but if your diet is full of sugar and processed fats, your skin will still age rapidly. Skin is an organ, and like any organ, it requires specific fuel to repair itself.
The Science of Skin Aging
The Villain: Glycation
When you eat excess sugar, it binds to proteins in your blood, creating harmful molecules called AGEs (Advanced Glycation End-products). These AGEs attack your collagen, making it dry and brittle—leading to sagging skin.
The Hero: Antioxidants
Antioxidants are your internal defense system. They hunt down Free Radicals (unstable atoms from stress/pollution) before they can damage your skin cells' DNA.
Top 3 "Collagen Builders"
-
1
Citrus Fruits (Vitamin C)
You simply cannot make collagen without Vitamin C. It is the essential chemical step. Oranges, grapefruits, and bell peppers are mandatory.
-
2
Berries (Ellagic Acid)
Strawberries and raspberries contain Ellagic Acid, which prevents collagen from breaking down after UV exposure.
-
3
Fatty Fish (Omega-3)
Salmon and Mackerel provide the oils that keep your cell walls distinct and hydrated. Dry cells = dry skin.
