Thanks to: Objectives • Skin anatomy • Skin health • Whole body health • Solutions Our skin anatomy • Called the largest organ • Layers • Top layer of the epidermis – dead skin cells • Basal layer – bottom layer of epidermis – where new skin cells are generated • Skin is a living organ • Skin care really begins in the inside • Skin is nourished by food and damaged by toxins • Skin health is a reflection of how nutrients are absorbed & wastes are being removed Dermis – dermal layer • All cells living • Blood vessels, sweat glands, elastin fibers, collagen, lymphatics • Nutrition – due to blood supply here Dermis • Age spots, blemishes and deeper wrinkles occur here • Healthy conditions = internal organs eliminate waste • Unhealthy conditions = wastes back up into the blood system • Wastes end up in the skin - a living organ Acne • Accumulated waste in the sebaceous gland Acne • Protection of organs from wastes • Mostly a reflection of bacteria, protein and animal fat in the body • Inflammatory • Help - with good diet How skin is damaged • Poor diet (coffee, black tea, nutrient deficient food, sugar) • Smoking • Too much sun exposure • Soaps & other items that change the pH of skins outer layer • = Oxidation – free radicals: cause DNA damage, breakdown of collagen & decreased collagen formation GI & your skin • Absorption = nutrition • Accumulation of wastes in GI = decreased nutrition absorption for all organs • You are what you eat!! Food for skin health • fruit : raw, fresh juices, smoothies, poached fruit • veggies: raw, fresh juices, soups (no oil/fat), grilled (without oil), steamed, boiled, frozen • beans & legumes: soaked overnight, simmered on stove, slow cooker, sprouted • seeds: flax is best, raw & ground just before using, soaked overnight an add to drink • wild whole grains: stove cooked or steamer Power of fruits & veggies • • • • Serve as antioxidants Enhance immune response Enhance cell-to-cell communication Convert to vitamin A (beta-carotene is metabolized to vitamin A) • Cause cancer cells to die (apoptosis) • Repair DNA damage caused by smoking and other toxic exposures • Detoxify carcinogens through the activation of the cytocrome P450 and phase II enzyme systems Nutrition & Wellness? • Modern medicine tells us to accept ailments as inevitable symptoms that afflict an aging population, yet fail to tell us that these are the result of our diet. Whole food • "Foods are so complex, offering not only vitamins and minerals, but fiber, nutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats), phytochemicals, and a whole host of nutritious substances that science has not fully identified that work together with other foods and provide the benefits of a healthy eating pattern." Peaches • Vitamin C & A • Anemia • Digestion, constipation and detoxifying • Kidney stones • Skin & complexion Cabbage • treatment of constipation, stomach ulcers, headache, excess weight, skin disorders, eczema, jaundice, scurvy, rheumatism, arthritis, gout, eye disorders, heart diseases, ageing, and Alzheimer's disease. • good detoxifier, rich in iodine, Spinach • • • • • • Strengthens muscles Cardiovascular support Bone strength Anti-cancer Skin protection Green pigmentation helps with UV ray damage Pineapple • • • • Protect against cancer Break up blood clots Heart benefits Helps the kidneys remove toxins from the body • Inflammation fighter HARD TO DO!! Research • University of South Carolina • Jin et al. Molecular Nutrition & Food Research 2010. • Double blind placebo controlled study • 117 people • 60 day study • 3 groups: • placebo • Fruits/veggies • Fruits/veggies/vineyard Results: • JP significantly increased anti-oxidant levels in the blood (Vit C, Vit E & betacarotene) • JP increased levels of super oxide dismutase (anti-oxidant) • JP significantly decreased markers of inflammation in the blood FASEB Journal – Abstract • Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology • Double blind placebo controlled • 52 females (age 40-65) • One group fruits/veggie capsules • Other group placebo • Measured at 6 & 12 weeks Results: • Significant improvement in skin microcirculation by 36% • Significant improvement of the skin thickness by 6% and skin density by 17% • Significant increase of skin hydration by 9% Other Juice Plus research study results: Proven results: Provides bioavailable nutrition Reduces oxidative stress Helps support the immune system Helps Protect DNA Promotes cardiovascular wellness Reduces systemic inflammation Start somewhere w/ better nutrition Questions???
