Nutricosmetics: Pills and skin supplements

Imagine for a moment correcting your skin defects with a pill , ampoule, or capsule at mealtime. What a few years ago was done solely for health or to complement our nutrition, in recent years has entered through the front door of the world of beauty and skin care thanks to nutricosmetics . Although the term upon hearing it we would think of food and nutrition , the truth is that the strength of this nutritional branch will be found in vitamin tablets, acids or plant extracts .

How is nutricosmetics born?

This of food supplements for beauty purposes is almost one hundred years old . In fact, it is said that the first appearance of a capsule of this type comes from the Nutrilite brand in 1936 . Since then, data from various studies speak of a market investment of over 3,000 million euros per year in products of this type.

Under the term of 'oral cosmetics' , we are only facing products that, thanks to their natural composition, promise a certain effect on the skin or body only with their intake. Winning in sales bronzers , products that monitor alopecia or prevent wrinkles , the amalgam of products is brutal, having already far surpassed the classic creams of large firms.

Fight against marketing

It is not the first time that we talk about food supplements, and in fact for a healthy life and sports activity, the list of supplements is endless. However, already in the world of sports we observe that the only certainty to know if a supplement works is testing it , and in many cases its effects are not as expected.

Well, in the world of cosmetics all this is compounded by its prices . We can find capsules at prohibitive prices that promise to lose weight, eliminate your wrinkles or combat fatigue that may or may not work, but the outlay will be tremendous.

In the Internet age it will be easy to find community before any product, and our advice is that, to inform you before buying any capsule just for the ads. With this we do not deny that the cosmetic effect of many products is advertised, however each person is a world and perhaps it does not work for you and you are paying for nothing. When marketing, be cautious.

Endless benefits

Once we have roughly presented the world of nutricosmetics , it is interesting to address some of the effects most worked on by the endless number of products that fill the market. In data, one in two people residing in the European Union already trust these products. Let's know its benefits:

  • Prevents hair loss : One of the classics. Hair loss or loss of density means that there are a large number of food supplements on the market to strengthen hair. A cocktail of vitamin B, zinc, iron, selenium or biotin (a vitamin that directly affects the hair) is the one that promises to prevent hair loss capsule by capsule.
  • Skin care : Combating dry skin, wrinkles or the impact of light is another classic in this sector. It is again another product that many people will tend to consume as a miracle formula. Regarding its composition, marine complexes, vitamin C and zinc are usually the most used compounds. Similar to the previous ones.
  • Improved sports performance : In this I think we know a little more, but nutricosmetics also has a plot for this. What L-Carnitine or sports gels can offer, this time we find capsules, especially silicon.
  • Combat tiredness : To avoid fatigue in marathon days, nutricosmetics offers pills with vitamin B as the protagonist. All its amalgam accompanied by elements such as spirulina or ginseng form energy cocktails.

Monitor compositions and compare

As a conclusion, our advice is to comb the market several times before making a significant investment. In many cases, the nutricosmetic tablets are made up of components that you can easily obtain from nutrition, or in a simple herbalist, where their price will be reduced dramatically.

If it is definitely calling you to try this science, our last advice is to check its effects on digital platforms . Once you know that it works for people like you, the mess. While you can make an investment for nothing if it is not a complement made for you.
