Age Spots Are NOT Normal Aging! | Dr. Zee | डॉक्टर ज़ी

In this video I'm going to talk about why You’ve been lied to about age spots. Skin discoloration known as age spots isn’t just “sun spots" and is not simply the result of getting older. In this video, I’ll show you how to get rid of age spots naturally by addressing the root cause. If you have age spots on your face and hands, you’re often offered lasers or creams that don’t work or make matters worse. Hyperpigmentation, or age spots, is caused by melanin, the naturally occurring pigment in your skin that protects you from ultraviolet light and free radical damage. Dark spots on the skin are actually a protective mechanism. Melanin spots are caused by uneven melanin production, which means there’s a problem with the regulator in the melanocyte, the cell that produces melanin. This is often caused by oxidative stress. Glutathione regulates melanin and reduces oxidation. Without enough glutathione, you can’t regulate melanin, which can lead to melanin spots. Low selenium can cause your glutathione levels to decline. Two Brazil nuts per day offer all the selenium you need. You can also get selenium from shellfish. High-quality animal protein is vital for glutathione production. The demand for glutathione increases in menopausal women. If you’re dealing with chronic stress, you’ll also need more glutathione. Copper is a trace mineral that helps your body make melanin. Too much or too little copper can cause issues with melanin production. Zinc can help regulate copper. After working to increase your glutathione levels, it can take 30 days to 6 weeks to see improvement in your hyperpigmentation. In the meantime, try a vitamin C serum to address dark spots on the skin topically. DISCLAIMER: This video is purely educational and cannot be considered as personal medical advice.
