CAUSES
Skin aging is caused by genetic and environmental factors.
Genetic factors:
Over the years, the metabolism slows down, resulting in a lower production of essential proteins needed to preserve the structure of the skin.
Environmental factors:
Environmental factors responsible for the aging process are: exposure to sunlight (UV rays), cigarette smoke, air pollution, ozone stress. These damage the DNA, causing the premature death of cells or by altering the cells themselves, which become unable to produce the essential elements for the vitality of the skin. In particular, the above mentioned environmental factors induce the production of free radicals, very reactive molecules that attack cells and damage collagen and elastin.
The production of free radicals is the main cause of skin aging.
SOLUTIONS
How to fight aging of the skin? In different ways!
1) With proper nutrition antiaging

STUDIES
A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition evaluated the relationship between nutrient / wrinkles, dryness senile atrophy of the skin, more than 4000 women over 50 years. The study showed that a higher intake of vitamin C and linoleic acid is a skin more beautiful and young. The vitamin C, in fact, besides being an important antioxidant, useful in combating free radicals, also intervenes in the synthesis of collagen and cellular regenerative processes.
Another study published in the Journal of American College Nutrition, assessed skin roughness of 450 elderly people from different countries, comparing sun exposure and intake of specific nutrients, it was shown that the consumption of vegetables, olive oil and vegetables is particularly protective for the skin.
Other studies have emphasized the importance as an antioxidant, coenzyme Q10, or ubichi none. Coenzyme Q10, in fact, fights free radicals and peroxides that damage collagen and elastin, promoting the recovery of the elasticity of the epidermis and reducing the formation of wrinkles.
DO NOT FORGET
Equally important to keep your skin young and supple is hydration: Over the years, the outermost part of the epidermis becomes dry and thick, making it harder cell turnover, in addition, the gradual loss of efficiency of the cutaneous microcirculation does not allow a perfect circulation in the skin.
