Dr. Tabatha Barber explains how vitamin C, protein, and iron deficiencies show up as skin problems. Modern produce has fewer nutrients than it used to, making supplementation harder to avoid if you want younger-looking skin.
What are the most common vitamin and mineral deficiencies that show up as skin issues? Vitamin C, protein and iron. All three of these absolutely important for your skin, especially protein and vitamin C. And so those are just two of them that has actually been shown in a real study to find that the produce that we're eating is not as nutritious as it used to be. We're not getting the vitamin C we used to, we're not getting the protein that we used to. At minimum, those two are super important.
