These experts highlighted the benefits of incorporating specific supplements such as vitamin A and C, L-Lysine, and L-Proline into one’s diet, which can help women above the age of 40 to achieve rejuvenated, hydrated, supple, and youthful-looking skin.

EGCG 

 


You may have heard of Epigallocatechin Gallate (or EGCG) as the plant-based compound found in green tea (as well as other foods like some fruit and nuts) that serves as a powerful antioxidant. But it can also be taken in supplement form and is known for its ability to reduce inflammation, boost skin hydration, help retain moisture in the skin, and reduce melanin generation to actually help decrease hyperpigmentation in the skin. 

 


Many experts agree that the best way to obtain nutrients is through food sources. Making sure your diet is filled with a variety of vitamins, minerals, proteins, and healthy fats is the best way to ensure your skin (and the rest of your body) receives everything it needs.

CoQ10 

 


CoQ10 is also known as Coenzyme Q10. This antioxidant has been shown in research to reduce oxidative stress, which may help slow down the aging process. You body naturally produced CoQ10, but it declines with age — supplementing with it may help promote better quality of life.

Vitamin C

 


The addition of vitamin C in your diet is very important for the health of your immune system, but also for age-related purposes and skincare. Vitamin C supplements can boost collagen production, keep skin soft and supple, and guard against free radicals that can cause wrinkles and fine lines.
