Objectives

• Skin anatomy
• Skin health
• Whole body health
• Solutions

3
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

4

• 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

5
Dermis dermal layer

• All cells living
• Blood vessels, sweat glands, elastin fibers,
  collagen, lymphatics
• Nutrition due to blood supply here

6
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

7
Acne

• Accumulated waste in the sebaceous gland

8
Acne

• Protection of organs from wastes
• Mostly a reflection of bacteria, protein and
  animal fat in the body
• Inflammatory
• Help - with good diet

9
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

10
GI your skin

• Absorption nutrition
• Accumulation of wastes in GI decreased
  nutrition absorption for all organs
• You are what you eat!!

11
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

  using, soaked overnight an add to drink
• wild whole grains stove cooked or steamer

12
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

13
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.

14
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."

  2010.
• Double blind placebo controlled study
• 117 people
• 60 day study
• 3 groups
• placebo
• Fruits/veggies
• Fruits/veggies/vineyard

22
Results

• JP significantly increased anti-oxidant levels in
  the blood (Vit C, Vit E beta-carotene)
• JP increased levels of super oxide dismutase
  (anti-oxidant)
• JP significantly decreased markers of
  inflammation in the blood

23
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

24
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
