ZINC – YOUR SKIN’S BEST FRIEND
Does your skin look dull? Is it prone to breakouts? Is it slow to heal? Then taking a look at your ZINC intake is a good idea.
While VOI treats the skin from the OUTSIDE-IN it is equally as important to treat your skin from the INSIDE-OUT to ensure proper cell functioning to optimise your skin’s condition.
Zinc is an essential trace element found in every tissue in the body. It is directly involved in cell division, cell growth, wound healing, proper endocrine function, maintenance of ideal hormone levels and the breakdown of carbohydrates.
There is a shortage of zinc in many people’s diet and a deficiency can result in lack lustre skin, that is slow to heal. Low zinc can also result in allergies, susceptibility to colds and infections, night blindness, loss of smell, loss of hair, white spots on fingernails and trouble sleeping.
Check out below a list of Zinc rich foods. I hope this helps… If you want to know more about my programs that are designed to IMPROVE your Gut Health then head HERE or if you want to eat your way back to health — one meal at a time — check out my Gut Health Recipe Compendium. Nat xx
