Let us have a look at the
main vitamin ingredients which we use in our herbal organic products in order
to enhance natural beauty of skin. These vitamins have been derived from plants
or herbs. It is useful to learn the benefits our skin derives from them:
Vitamin A (Beta Carotene). Helps
maintain smooth, soft disease-free skin; helps protect the mucous membranes of
the mouth, nose, throat lungs, which helps reduce our susceptibility to
infections; protects against air pollutants and contaminants; helps improve eye
sight and counteracts night-blindness; aids in bone and teeth formation;
improves skin elasticity, moisture content and suppleness; and helps reverse
the signs of photo-aging. A lack of vitamin A can cause skin to become dry and
hardened.
Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) Vitamin C is essential for
healthy teeth, gums bones; helps heal wounds, scar tissue, fractures; prevents
scurvy; builds resistance to infection; aids in the prevention treatment of the
common cold; gives strength to blood vessels; aids in the absorption of iron.
It is required for the synthesis of collagen, the inter-cellular cement which
holds tissues together, and is also one of the major antioxidant nutrients. It
prevents the conversion of nitrates (from tobacco smoke, smog, bacon,
lunchmeats, some vegetables) into cancer-causing substances. Moreover, Vitamin
C has been shown to help slow the production of hyper-pigmentation (age spots)
while providing some UV protection.
Vitamin E (Tocopherol Acetate). The
Vitamin E family is well known for its antioxidant capabilities, protecting
vital cell structures by neutralizing molecules called “free radicals”. Free
radicals are unstable molecules produced from sources like air pollution, radiation,
and peroxides.
Wheat Germ Oil (Triticum vulgare). A natural preservative, very high
in Vitamin E and also containing Vitamin A and D. It supports the skins natural
process of regeneration; aids muscle and lymph function and is particularly
valuable for treating dry, aging skin. Good for stretch marks and scar tissue,
and for dry rough skin. It leaves the skin very smooth while nourishing and
helping heal the skin. It is also rich source of Vitamin E, A, D, proteins,
Lecithin, and Squalene, and useful for numerous irritations including roughness
of the skin, cracking, chaffing; also effective to help reverse the wrinkling
process.
