Why does the skin age?
The skin ages year after year - it is a natural process. With age, the body's ability to heal itself decreases. Natural factors have a detrimental effect on the skin: bright sun, frost, high humidity. Free radicals play an important role in skin aging, destroying cells and causing irreversible changes in the body.
Between healthy cells and free radicals are substances that are collectively known as antioxidants - the main characters that resist the aging process. Foods rich in antioxidants provide the body with protective substances that are absorbed into the bloodstream and help maintain youth and beauty.
