Skin Nutrition 101| The sun often gets a bad rep in skincare. It causes signs of aging such as wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. However, the sun is super essential for providing us with a very important vitamin.... Vitamin D! In 2018 studies show that 42% of Americans are deficient in vitamin D. Vitamin D helps stimulate healthy cellular growth, repair, and calms inflammation in eczema and acne-prone skin.
How do we get vitamin D without the negative side effects?
Spend 15 minutes in the sun, please make sure to cover your face.
Take a vitamin D supplement. I recommend taking a plant-based one from Sports Research that has Vitamin K2+D3
Eat foods plant-based foods that have Vitamin D Mitaki Mushrooms, Portabella Mushrooms
Adults should consume between 10-20 mcg of vitamin D daily. 📸 @samcmillerphotography
