The Most Beautiful Skin In The World
That green stuff that you have been pushing to the side of your plate for years, may be the secret to beautiful skin.
Broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables may be the key to beautifully smooth skin in addition to healing all kinds of skin disorders as well.
The compound that has been tested under intense scrutiny is called sulforaphane.
Its precursors are found in broccoli, brussel sprouts, kale, cauliflower, cabbage and other members of the cruciferous cabbage family.
Sulforaphane has already been acclaimed for its anti-cancer properties and this vegetable group is recommended as a very healthy group of vegetables to eat that contain it.
When it comes to skin, you can't really rub your face with broccoli and expect to have flawless skin, so researchers have come up with an extraction process which allows them to remove sulforaphane and mix it with ingredients that are beneficial and compatible with human skin.
Research has already shown that it is safe for use on skin, even on newborns.
Researchers turned to sulforaphane in their search for a natural product that would stimulate the production of keratins in the lower epidermal layer of the skin.
Sulforaphane is a chemical activator that has strong anti-inflammatory properties that help conserve and repair the 54 types of keratin proteins found in mammals.
These keratins are similar to each other in genetic sequence and it has been postulated by researchers that their activation by eating cruciferous vegetables or applying the compound to the skin may work as a functional redundancy to replace other types of keratin that have been lost due to sun damage, harsh cleansing products and other means.
In other words the sulfur-like compound stimulates a rescue of a lost keratin's genetic code by substituting the genetic code of a keratin cousin to take over its function.
The cruciferous compound activates two entirely different signaling pathways in the body to make sure that the keratin function is working the way that it should.
The anti-inflammatory effect on the skin may limit the amount of damaged skin tissue and help to repair it.
By restoring the innate keratin production, the skin becomes smoother in look and feel.
Keratin is the main structural material that makes up the layers of skin.
Keratin along with elastin and collagen give the skin strength and make it almost waterproof.
It is the sulforaphane compounds that signal the body's genetic code to repair DNA damage and cause its restoration.
By using ointments and lotions containing it, scar tissue decreases, skin smooths and softens and blemishes and age spots that appear as we age, gradually fade.
Fine lines and wrinkles smoothen and become much less defined.
So plug your nose and eat that broccoli in addition to applying its compounds to your skin.
You'll look younger for it.
