Millions of people around the world are afflicted with it, and some of them will go on to have psoriatic arthritis, a painful and debilitating inflammation of the joints.

Healthy Detox Diet Tips - How To Detox Your Body

Topic: Detox Diets

It is quite normal to expect people to want to look attractive and this might explain why anti-aging skin care products are so successful; as our lifespan increases so does our desire to remain active as well as look young and healthy. The skin care industry uses beauty and detox products that increase the synthesis of the protein collagen, the main protein in skin which becomes less elastic as we age; twenty-five per cent of the skin's protein is collagen. This area of anti-aging treatments is connected to another group of body detox products that help people to look young; this group is called antioxidants which are natural chemicals found in many foods and our body.

One of the best known anti-oxidants is vitamin C and despite continual research, no one agency involved can decide just exactly how much our body should consume on a daily basis – whatever the levels, this vitamin is a powerful component in a healthy detox diet. Unfortunately all skin care treatments that use vitamin C have the problem of atmospheric oxidization to contend with once the product is exposed to the air.

To get around this some skin care treatments are based on derivatives of vitamin C, which are more stable and less expensive. These new anti-oxidant products are not quite as good as vitamin C although other naturally occurring detox compounds, vitamin E and lipoic acid can achieve the same effect.

Vitamin E is also a powerful detox product and is found in the blood and is an antioxidant that is also used to increase the body's defenses against other health problems; it has been linked to resistance to a number of conditions including certain types of cancer. Lipoic acid is also an energy making component of the body, found in every cell; it is also known to combat the signs of aging very effectively by repairing skin damage caused by the aging process, and is often used in liver detox products.

Phytochemicals aren't produced by the body but are extracted from a number of plants and used in many anti-aging skin care products to combat the signs of ageing. A further benefit of these phytochemicals is their ability to detox your body and prevent the onset of certain cancers; these include:

• Prostate Cancer in Men
• Cancer that attacks the Breast
• Cancer that attacks the Colon

These are all on the increase around the world.

For some time now it has also been known that the vitamins B5, B6 and B12 also have healthy detox and anti-aging skin care properties. The use of anti-ageing skin care products is a huge scientific field to research and has far greater potential than just producing goods that reduce the visible signs of age. Gradually, new discoveries will be made to advance our understanding of the aging process; there is still a long way to go however, before natural detox methods that successfully reduce the effects of age are commonplace.

There may be many challenges still to overcome but in time scientists believe they will succeed in producing more effective anti-ageing skin care products that are less expensive and available to more people. It may be time to learn that not every synthetic anti-aging product is going to work; it is doubtful if science can replace natural skin care remedies. You know all these things but how many do you practice? Regular exercise, restful sleep, drinking plenty of water, eating a healthy diet and keeping your stress levels low are all necessary.
