How to Improve & Protect Your Skin Health & Appearance | Dr. Teo Soleymani

And this was something that we saw in the fitness world a lot is that young college athletes, high school athletes that would come in, they would otherwise be completely healthy and would be running high blood pressures. If you took away their protein and creatine supplementation, their blood pressures dropped. And it's really fascinating stuff.

And, you know, I used to work out at UCLA with one of the professors of FISAI, who was a really big dude. And we worked out together and we did all these studies and looked at, you know, young, otherwise healthy people. So that's one component. The other question is, do any of these food changes affect actually quantifiably increase skin collagen density, skin elastin density.

There's no evidence that taking these things will traffic or meaning will go to where you want them to. Kind of silly to think if I drink this, it's going to go into my stomach, go into my intestine, be absorbed, and then know to go exactly to my cheek. Usually doesn't occur that way. And when we've looked at histologic comparison studies, the data is equivocal.

Some studies have shown a slightly increase in collagen density. And you wonder, are those patients one that are on restrictive diets to begin with? And then there are some studies that have shown there's really no density change in collagen and elastin. So the supplements really don't actually make a physical difference. Now, the other question is, is that study too short of term?

How long do you stay on these? Data is wild. And there's a lot to understand. But we do know high protein, complete proteins, anti-inflammatory diets, absolutely critical for skin health.

Great question. I do supplement only in sun powder, which is my daily supplement. It contains bioactive collagen peptides. Aside from that, I think natural sources are better. So my wife cooks a lot at home, bone broth. Beef bone broth, chicken bone broth, a lot of animal meats.

My diet tends to be more in the, I guess, old school, you'd call it Atkins or keto diet, where I eat a lot of proteins and mostly fruits and vegetables. I'm not very restrictive, but I know that's what's made the biggest difference. I know that if I go on a sugar binge, in a few days, I'm breaking out. It's like clockwork for me. Some people are not as sensitive. My body is.
