One major culprit in skin aging is glycation, a process in which sugars bind to proteins like collagen and elastin.
“Diet profoundly and undoubtedly influences how our skin ages,” Dr. Trisha Khanna, a dermatologist and Medical Advisory Board member at Codex Labs, told The Epoch Times.
More people are turning to food to care for their skin, and for good reason. While we cannot stop the natural aging process, diet can influence how skin looks and feels over time.
However, skin aging is a complex process shaped by both genetics and environmental factors. Because nutrients must be digested, absorbed, and delivered to the skin, improvements take time. Much like aging, healing is gradual.
