This week I am in Houston on business (and to visit my Family and Friends!). This means I need something this week I can work on while away from work and home while eating Mexican food with margaritas and not being able to work out.
So taking my vitamins for healthier skin as well as all around general good healthy will be my goal this week!
But what vitamins should I take, especially for healthy skin? Now the most obvious answer, is to eat healthy and get the vitamins and minerals you need from food, but unfortunately sometimes we need to supplement our diet.
Here is a list of a few vitamins that also give you healthy skin and a list of the ones I will be taking everyday this week!
Multi Vitamin: Good all around. I prefer one with whole-food ingredients.
Zinc: Assist in wound healing, astringent, heals acne, reduce inflammation. Helps with the absorption of Vitamin A. Regulate hormonal production.
Essential Fatty Acids: I will take a fish oil but you can take flax or Evening Primrose Oil. Helps with Dry skin, white head and black heads. Helps to keep skin looking younger.
Vitamin B Complex: Helps keep skin hydrated. Assist in new skin cell growth. Helps to prevent premature aging and acne!

Also WebMD has a good article on vitamins for skin.
Always check with your health care provider to decide what supplements are right for you.
