True beauty support starts from within. Support beauty from the inside and out with these key ingredients.* In this article, we’ll highlight four key ingredients to include for added beauty benefits.* Plus, we’ll share our favorite Nature’s Way products designed to help you find your glow.* Collagen Collagen is a protein found abundantly in the body. Collagen’s main role is to provide structure and support to your skin, muscles, joints, tissues, and more. Collagen plays various roles in the body including: Replacing dead skin cells and helping new cells grow Providing elasticity to skin* Supporting hair and nails* Creating a protective layer for organs Supporting bones, joints, and muscles There are five types of collagen found in the body, though Type I is most prevalent and makes up 90% of your body’s collagen. Type II collagen is what Nature’s Way uses in our supplement Hydraplenish, formulated with unique BioCell Collagen® for beauty support.* Vitamin C Vitamin C is an essential water-soluble vitamin that your body can’t produce on its own, so it must be obtained from food and supplements. Your mind probably immediately goes to oranges, but there are many other fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C like lemons, grapefruits, broccoli, and kale. In supplement form, vitamin C can help support healthy skin by promoting collagen production, an essential component of connective tissue.* In serums and other skincare products, vitamin C can also help reduce hyperpigmentation and signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin C also has many benefits for general health: Supports immune health* Protects the body from oxidative damage by neutralizing free radicals* Helps the body absorb non-heme (plant-based) iron The Daily Value (DV) for vitamin C is 90 mg for ages 4+. On supplement labels, % DV reflects FDA daily intake guidelines. Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs), reflective of age and sex, are 90 mg/day for men and 75 mg/day for women ages 19+. Biotin Biotin, otherwise known as vitamin B7, is an essential nutrient found in many foods—including meat, fish, eggs, and nuts—and is formulated in supplements. Its main function is to help break down the carbs, fats, and proteins in the food you consume and turn it into energy for the body.* But you may also know it for its potential beauty benefits.* In supplements, biotin may help support healthy skin, hair, and nails.* For adults 19+, the Daily Value is 30 mcg of biotin. Chlorophyllin copper complex Chlorophyll gives plants and algae their vibrant green color, but because it’s oil-soluble, it can be tricky to use in supplements. That’s why most formulas feature chlorophyllin, a water-soluble form, combined with a stabilizing mineral like copper. This blend, called chlorophyllin copper complex, has the same green hue. Chlorophyllin copper complex, used in our Chlorofresh® products, supports detoxification and antioxidant pathways, promotes collagen for healthy skin, and even acts as an internal deodorant to help you feel fresh.* Nature’s Way beauty support products* Looking for ways to add these beauty-supporting ingredients to your routine?* Explore our range of products designed to help nourish hair, skin, and nails from within.* Alive!® Hair, Skin & Nails Premium Gummies: Add a new step to your morning beauty routine.
