Keeping your skin glowing and youthful is easier than you expect.

Problem is, everyone is looking in the wrong places.

Here are 7 research backed tools to reverse aging in your skin:

1. COLLAGEN

Oral collagen has routinely been shown to:

◇ Improve skin elasticity
◇ Reduce wrinkles
◇ Reduce skin roughness
◇ Improve skin hydration

All of which contribute to a more youthful look.

Collagen is one of the primary extracellular proteins that makes up skin.

Collagen reverses aging of the skin, even in small amounts.

Just 2.5 g per day here:

◇ Smoothed wrinkles
◇ Decreased skin dryness
◇ Improved skin coloring

Can also focus on collagenous foods, like oxtail, feet, bone broth, etc.

2. RED LIGHT THERAPY

10 mins, 2-3 times weekly (660 nm):

◈ Reduces wrinkle volume
◈ Increases collagen production
◈ Improves antioxidant status

Through its powerful effects on mitochondrial function.

Red light therapy reverses all signs of skin aging & disease.

12 minutes 2x weekly improves:

◈ Wrinkle depth by ~38%
◈ Sagging by ~25%
◈ Elasticity by ~20%
◈ Roughness by ~25%
◈ Complexion uniformity by ~35%
◈ Pore size by ~1/3
◈ Sebum production by ~70%

3. HYALURONIC ACID

Hyaluronic acid is another component to the extracellular matrix found abundantly in skin.

Its levels decline as we age, contributing to the deterioration of the skin.

100-200 mg per day orally has been shown to combat this.

Hyaluronic acid glows up the skin.

120 mg:

☆ Contributes to skin "glow"
☆ Increases skin elasticity
☆ Reduces wrinkles
☆ Improves skin moisture

Within 6 weeks, and these changes remained for 2 weeks after supplementation stopped.

4. VITAMIN A

Topical retinol for 6 months:

⇨ Reduces wrinkling
⇨ Improves roughness
⇨ Increases collagen production

Vit A works by controlling gene expression of cells in the skin,

which reduces oxidative stress, inflammation and controls growth factors.

Vitamin A for youthful skin:

➜ Activates epidermal stem cells
➜ Activates collagen producing cells
➜ Improves blood flow to the skin
➜ Increases growth factors
➜ Decreases matrix degradation factors

One of the best studied remedies for maintaining healthy skin.

Focus on optimizing vitamin A intake is the first step.

I've written all about that (+ more on vitamin A) below.

Topical application is typically done with a 0.1-1% retinol product.

‣ Reverses hyperpigmentationty
‣ Prevent discoloration
‣ Reverse hyperpigmentation

over 12 weeks

Niacinamide for youthful skin:

➞ Antibacterial
➞ Antifungal
➞ Supports DNA repair
➞ Supports antioxidant status
➞ Vital for mitochondrial function
➞ Increases collagen production
➞ Reduces hyperpigmentation
➞ Reduces sebum production
➞ Anti-inflammatory

6. CoQ10

50-150 mg orally:

✔ Improves skin elasticity
✔ Reduces wrinkles
✔ Improved smoothness

It's in animal foods mainly, and can also be supplemented.

COQ10 improves skin health:

➜ Antioxidant
➜ Improves mitochondrial function
➜ Anti inflammatory
➜ Induces collagen producing cells
➜ Inhibits collagen breakdown

7. VITAMIN C

Vitamin C megadosing completely prevents wrinkles.

~500-3,000 mg daily (human equivalent) made aged skin identical to youth.

Vitamin C is required to make collagen, &:

• Recovers cell proliferation
• Improves skin barrier function

for anti-aging the skin.

Topical vitamin C reverses skin aging.

→ Decreases wrinkles
→ Decreases roughness

Optimizing dietary intake is most important, but topical application of a 1-3% formula can work well too.
