Our skin and hair could benefit from Vitamin E consumption. Lotions and potions to keep inflammation down and provide dermal support to our skin and strength to our hair.
Do keep in mind that Vitamin E can come in synthetic form when it comes to supplementation and skin care products. Obviously, there’s no way we can determine if skin care has a synthetic form. But look at the ingredients! Those companies that use natural, plant-derived vitamin E do put it out there for us to know.
FYI: Those taking Vitamin E as supplementation to their regular diet need to take it with Vitamin C to increase absorption.
