The epidermis is presented as a separate organ of the human body, which performs important functions, such as protecting internal organs from the negative effects of the environment. In addition, the skin is engaged in maintaining a constant body temperature in the cavities and tissues. Removes toxins from sweat and sebum.
But, as a rule, the skin is rarely considered as a full-fledged and functional active organ, in most cases the surface of the skin is treated as a certain integral level of a person's appearance.
What he althy skin should look like
Elastic, beautiful and radiant cover, without blackheads, irritations and enlarged pores is considered the standard of beauty among women and men. In this connection, each person strives to make his skin flawless.
First of all, this applies to the skin of the face, arms, neck and chest, to a lesser extent it concerns the legs and torso. One of the effective methods to bring your epidermis to the ideal is the use of vitamins externally and orally. What are the best vitamins for skin?
Why does skin need vitamins?
Like any other organ in the human body, the epidermis needs oxygen, with which it breathes and saturates nutrients for further regeneration, as well as cell growth and development.
All physiological processes in the epidermis occur as a complex cascade of biochemical compounds. This means that the appearance of the skin surface - the absence of wrinkles, acne, elasticity and firmness, and all other functions (protection of organs from the environment and maintaining the constancy of the internal environment) - is achieved by various biochemical processes that occur at the cellular level.
As a rule, for the firmness and elasticity of the skin surface, a systematic process of connection and regeneration of fibrillar and connective fibers is needed, as well as the timely elimination of dead tissues. The synthesis of collagen and elastin occurs due to a certain cycle of biochemical reactions.
The elimination of old skin cells is carried out with the help of certain enzymes that can destroy the connection between dead and living structures. However, enzymes that break down existing bonds between cells do so through chemical reactions. The appearance of sweat, sebum is carried out by special glands, which do this with the help of biochemical transformations.
Vitamins for all skin areas
In the epidermis, a large number of various molecularreactions that can ensure its normal operation, as well as to activate and maintain the speed of each of them, special coenzyme vitamins are needed. On the one hand, it may seem that thirteen vitamins are extremely few to maintain the normal functioning of the body, on the other hand, nature is much wiser than us, and she was able to do this simply and easily. All bioreactions are divided into six huge types, depending on what action they perform with organic compounds.
