SKIN NUTRIENTS

Vitamins A, D, and E are often considered the skin vitamins because they are essential for healthy skin and mucus membranes. A daily dose of 10,000 IU vitamin A and 150 IU vitamin E can help keep your nose and sinuses healthy and prevent irritation from the outside influences like pollen, animal dander, dust and mites. Manganese is a mineral that also is needed for healthy skin, bone, and cartilage formation. Acne and slow wound healing can be helped with the mineral zinc. Zinc is considered to be essential for overall health and well being.
