Women and men alike are all after one thing when it comes to skin – how to keep it from aging. The first problem when tackling anti-aging and skin health is that we first have to understand what causes it to age. The skin is our largest organ and needs to be treated with care, after all, it does so much to protect our bodies.
Aging/wrinkled skin is typically caused by a few main things:
- Poor nutrition/diet (high sugar)
- Environmental factors (pesticides)
- Smoking
- UV damage
- Harsh skin care
These things really increase inflammation of the skin, which ultimately damages collagen.
In the coming weeks, I will continue to discuss some major ways that we can help in the anti-aging process, and will directly link some of our Rx SKIN THERAPY products that aide in the process, as well.
