Vitamin A And Healthy Skin
by Sara Musfeldt
Like all areas of health, you should always look to your diet for solutions to any ailment you may have. So if you struggle with unhealthy skin like acne or dry/flaky skin, then vitamin A is likely to be the answer. Vitamin A is a critical component of maintaining healthy skin because it helps to rebuild cells.
The nutrient you consume from food is considered pre-vitamin A, which is also referred to as retinol and beta-carotene. Once you have enough pre-vitamin A in your body, your system will create its own vitamin A. So be sure to consume the right animal products and vegetables so that your body has what it needs. For optimal vitamin A consumption take a daily supplement of no more than 25,000 international units (more vitamin A is toxic).
Below is a list of vitamin A rich foods:
Spinach
Sweet potatoes
Carrots
Cantaloupe
Mangoes
Liver
Beef
Egg yolks
Milk
Mozzarella cheese
There are many benefits to consuming the right amounts of vitamin A including quickly healed pimples and lesions, hydrated skin with no flaking, and also a reduction in acne itself. Studies show a link between severe acne sufferers and low levels of vitamin A. Acne sufferers should modify their diet, take a supplement and use topical skin care products that advertise vitamin A or retinol.
Vitamin A is an excellent part of skin fitness and your overall fitness. In addition to helping with acne and hydration, it is also an antioxidant, good for your immune system, bone strength, eyesight, and digestive system.
