Healthy skin starts from within
Many people rely on external skincare products like creams and serums. However, the foundation for healthy skin is laid within. Omega-3 fatty acids, especially EPA and DHA, are essential nutrients that the body cannot produce itself and must therefore obtain through the diet.
Why are omega-3 fatty acids important for the skin?
Omega-3 fatty acids contribute to the maintenance of normal skin by:
-
support the skin barrier,
-
contribute to maintaining skin moisture,
-
and are involved in normal inflammatory processes. healthy-rituals.com+2omega-life.ch+2NORSAN Germany+2
A deficiency in omega-3 fatty acids can manifest itself in dry, flaky skin, redness or increased sensitivity.
