The #1 Best Food for Aging Skin

The number one best food for aging skin, guess what? It's not collagen. Typically, what people do for their skin is they use facial creams or moisturizers.

They pulled up the top selling facial creams for wrinkles and aging skin. I actually read the ingredients. It was shocking to me.

They're putting plastics, chemicals, things that cause cancer. Some of them actually have collagen in these lotions. You can't put collagen topically and think it's going to be absorbed.

It's not. But all these other chemicals in the cream will. It goes right into the skin.

It goes into the bloodstream and then it starts to build up in your liver and now the liver has to deal with it. It has to get rid of the toxicity and then the skin starts looking older. Another mistake is to overcleanse the skin and really scrub it too much.

There's a layer of microbiome that is there to protect you. So, you have to be very gentle about when you exfoliate the skin. I just recommend that you go really light on the skin because there's all these microbes on your skin that are beneficial.

When you pull those off, now we don't have the protection. Of course, the water you put on your skin from the shower. Fluoride and chlorine, very, very toxic, very, very harsh.

So, get a filter for your shower. And the last mistake, when you're on a statin, I'm not telling you not to take a statin, but that blocks cholesterol. Cholesterol and fat are necessary to build the skin.

I just want to mention one last thing about uh the chemicals in these lotions. You would think that the FDA does third-party testing. Absolutely not.

It's an honor system, so industry has to do their own testing. But with cosmetics, there's no testing. They can pretty much put a lot of things in there.

In fact, in the EU, they actually banned 1,600 chemicals in cosmetics, but in the US, they only ban 30. All right. Now, let's get into this food.

I want to see if you can guess what it is. The first thing that this food has a lot of is vitamin A, retinol. It's an essential element to building connective tissue.

Also, vitamin A is essential for your immune system on the skin to protect the skin cells from getting old. Let's move on to the next co-actor, copper. Copper provides the elasticity to the skin.

You also need zinc for many reasons. One being it's a great healer of the skin. This food is also loaded with iron to strengthen the red blood cells to give you oxygen and to help your circulation.

One serving size of this food has more anti-aging, anti-rinkle nutrients than most $80 skin products. And this food is liver. That's right, grass-fed liver.

Grass-fed liver contains literally every co-actor and raw material that you need to keep your skin super vibrant. Now, here's the problem. Some people don't like to eat liver, including myself.

For some reason, when I eat it, it makes me tired. And I think because of my history, I've damaged my liver. I've eaten a lot of bad foods for many years.

What happens when you do that? whether you damage your liver from bad foods, alcohol, a virus, chemicals, the liver has these cells called resident memory tea cells and they can actually react to dietary liver when you eat it. And so when you eat liver, sometimes you might get tired and you're thinking, do I have an allergy to liver or do I have some problem with liver?

Why is it making me tired? Well, it has to do with uh some pre-existing damage that can then create a little bit of immune reaction that can actually increase your histamines and make you tired. So, what I found is if I take just a small amount, like one capsule of grass-fed liver in a supplement before bed, it helps me sleep better.

It doesn't bother me through the day, and I actually can get the benefit of that liver uh without consuming the liver because I don't like it. Now, if you don't like liver, you can also soak it in lemon juice. That actually helps the taste.

You can find a good recipe for it. So, you're putting various spices and onions and cook it with that. Or you can blend the liver into other meat.

I've done that where I don't even taste it. Just put a little bit. That seems to work.

Like, I put it in hamburger. Or have liver pate, which is pretty delicious. Or grass-fed liver pills.

But I'm telling you, if you want to have nice skin, you should just start consuming liver and see what happens because liver is literally one of the best multivitamin mineral co-actors. It provides so many good things for your skin and the rest of your body as well. When you eat collagen or take collagen to get that to turn into your skin, again, you need a lot of co-actors.

To get those cells in your skin to make collagen, they also need to be fed these co-actors. There's a lot of things you can do to destroy the skin topically, but also internally as well by eating, of course, junk food, consuming a lot of sugar and seed oils. It's really hard on the body and it'll make you look older.

And one last thing that I found out when I was in practice observing people that would do certain diets, even ketogenic diets, but do it in a way that is super low fat. Okay, they're going low carb, but they're also going low fat, almost like no fat. And it's like protein, very lean protein.

And they're not even using quality ingredients. They're using prepackaged uh highly refined protein as soy protein isolates. Uh and I'm talking about ideal protein.

I would notice people that would consume that. It's just like a bunch of synthetic vitamins with really low quality uh raw material. and they would lose weight, but they would look old.

Their skin would look dried out. Their hair would look dried out. Yes, it'll help you lose weight, but it is it really the healthy way to do it.

Anyway, start eating some liver and see how your skin does. And thank you so much for watching this.
