They are found alone or associated with vitamins and minerals.
Some will help you find your beauty, others will give you energy and vitality.
A short guide to become or remain beautiful by plants!
In general, one can distinguish between plants and cosmetic virtues that will help you find the
form
To Skin
1- Beta-carotene for sunbathing
carrots are good, because they are rich in beta-carotene.Tomatoes and apricots also contain it,
so they can be found in some solar additions.But the accumulation of this substance
does not protect the skin colour from sun damage.
The AFSSA has just render an adverse opinion on the marketing of one of these sunscreens.
For those of nutrition experts, beta-carotene had little or no action to prevent sunburn.
Its photo protective effect, if any, is low and does not indicate on the packaging that this
product prepares the skin to tan. Indeed it may give consumers a false sense of protection
towards the sun.
2- Borage oil
Borage is a plant from which we get an oil rich in essential fatty acids.
These would be very effective against all skin problems and preserve the flexibility of the skin.
Borage oil is used in the composition of several additional beauty products.
Against aging
1- Wheat germ
Wheat germ is one of those products that offer a wide range of possibilities.
Its wealth of antioxidants including vitamin E, which protect cells, makes it a good candidate
for anti-aging products. It also contains vitamins B, necessary for the development of hair.
Finally rich in calcium and magnesium supplements,it is particularly suitable for women.
It is found either alone spangled form or as an ingredient in beauty supplements.
2 - Soybean
Many studies have examined the benefits of soy. With its rich ingredient isoflavones, a substance close
to the female estrogen, the plant protects against cancer, heart disease and osteoporosis that
occur more frequently at the menopause. These same isoflavones also limit certain disorders
such as hot flushes.
A French study published in September 2001 in the books of nutrition and dietetics assessed the
composition of soy isoflavones in dietary supplements 10.
