What deficiencies affect skin?

Our skin is the body’s largest organ, and it’s affected by everything we put on it, as well as everything we ingest. Remedying poor skin requires us to treat not only our symptoms but the root causes as well, and that begins with good nutrition.

The eight B vitamins help turn food into energy and affect the health of our nervous system, metabolism, organs, muscles, skin, and hair. They’re also essential for cell growth, development, and overall functioning.

However, we’ve got a relatively small storage tank for B vitamins, which means we need to keep refilling it each day. Because they are water-soluble rather than fat-soluble, B vitamins are most effective when taken orally as a supplement or ingested through food sources.

A simple solution is to follow a diet rich in leafy green vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains — a strategy long-touted as the best way to achieve good health — is also an effective way to look as healthy as you feel and glow from the inside out.
