Default Vitamin K May Combat Skin Wrinkling

Quote:
19/10/2007 - Research suggests that vitamin K plays a role in protecting skin elasticity and may help protect against skin aging and the development of wrinkles.

Recent studies have linked vitamin K to the elasticity of skin in patients suffering from pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), an inherited condition resulting in severe wrinkling of the skin on the face and body.

Although the link between vitamin K and normal levels of skin wrinkling seen in healthy populations is unknown, scientists suggest that these studies illustrate that the vitamin is involved, in some capacity, in the skin's elastic qualities.

Vitamin K, along with vitamin E, aloe vera, and large amounts of vitamin C will protect the skin, and keep it young, healthy, and elastic.
