6 Key Nutrients That Prove Your Looks Are Only As Good As Your Diet
What do the sheen of your hair, the smooth texture of your skin, and the strength of your nails have in common? They wouldn’t be possible without these beauty-supporting nutrients.
True beauty may lie on the inside, but there’s no denying that a quality diet contributes to an outward appearance of health and vitality. Getting the recommended amounts of several fundamental nutrients—most of which can be found in Ka’Chava—is essential for supporting hair, skin, and nail health.
PROTEIN:
Provides Building Blocks For Collagen, Elastin, And Keratin
Looking for gorgeous hair, skin, and nails? Make sure your protein intake is sufficient. Your skin is composed of two structural proteins, collagen and elastin, whereas your hair and nails are composed of the protein keratin. While your body can produce these proteins on its own, adequate dietary protein intake is crucial for their synthesis. One serving of Ka’Chava provides a whopping 25 grams of protein from plant-based sources such as sacha inchi, pea protein, brown rice protein, amaranth, and quinoa.
ZINC:
Supports Hair, Skin & Nail Health
Zinc is an essential mineral with a myriad of roles in your body, including maintaining the health of your skin, hair, and nails. Zinc is predominantly found in animal-based foods and a few plant foods like cashews, but Ka’Chava packs 80% of your daily zinc needs.
VITAMIN A:
Supports Skin Health
Vitamin A and its precursors, such as beta-carotene, contribute to maintaining healthy skin and function as antioxidants helping combat free radical damage. Beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A, is found in various vegetables, including carrots, kale, and spinach. You can find 80% of your daily needs in just one serving of Ka'Chava.
VITAMIN E:
Antioxidant
Vitamin E is the most prevalent fat-soluble vitamin in your skin and acts as a crucial part of your skin’s antioxidant defenses. Foods such as flaxseeds and sacha inchi contain vitamin E, and one serving of Ka’Chava includes 70% of your daily vitamin E needs. Fun fact: Vitamin E works even better when paired with vitamin C.
VITAMIN C:
Supports Collagen Production
Vitamin C is the hottest trend in topical skincare, but it works its magic from the inside out, too. One of its claims to beauty fame: It plays a key role in the formation of collagen, a structural protein that helps your skin maintain its supple, bouncy, youthful texture and appearance. Vitamin C also helps protect your skin from free radicals. Foods such as pomegranate, blackberries, and spinach contain vitamin C, and one serving of Ka’Chava includes 35% of your daily vitamin C needs.
B-COMPLEX VITAMINS:
Supports Skin And Nail Health
To maintain their function and appearance, your hair, skin, and nails require a range of B-Complex Vitamins. For instance, riboflavin, niacin, and biotin all assist in maintaining skin performance and appearance, while biotin contributes to the maintenance of healthy nails. Fortunately, it’s easy to get B vitamins in your diet (provided you’re not cutting out any major food groups), as they’re found in a variety of legumes, nuts, seeds, fruits, and veggies. One serving of Ka’Chava contains over 60% of your daily needs for all B vitamins.
