Help Wrinkles with Vitamin C

Vitamin C can help in the reduction of the appearance of wrinkles. It is one of the most commonly used ingredients in skin care products. It is an antioxidant that can help reduce skin damage that is caused by free radicals. It is also important for the synthesis of collagen, which is an important structural protein in the skin. It is needed for the connective tissue in the body, especially in the layer where collagen is made. Thats why people who have healthy diets look younger than people who don't. Diets high in linoleic acid, which is found in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, also promote younger looking skin by reducing dryness and thinning of the skin.
