Here is his advice:"Berberine for glycation, CBD and curcumin for inflammation, and Green Tea, Red Wine and Blueberries (EGCG, Reservatrol, Pterostilbene, etc.) for antioxidants can help! If you're in search of a good cbd supplement, check out the offerings over at Sunday Scaries.Collagen – 10-40g daily will show benefits on skin being firmer and tighter…some studies as little as 5g. Vitamin C works with collagen and has synergy, so make sure you’re getting enough of this critical antioxidant.Lastly, an antioxidant found in marigolds and other plants, Lutein and Ze-axanthin (carotenoids) protect your skin and eyes from photodamage (light and sun.)"Shawn Wells is a long-time expert guest of One Life Radio.
