Skin Authority Launches First "Inside Out" Solution to Help Boost Vitamin D Levels
A new nutrition/beauty combo has Vitamin D covered and works to tackle this major health issue. Skin Authority announces a new, natural Vitamin D solution which addresses deficiency inside and out.
Carlsbad, CA, March 12, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Got Vitamin D? Not likely. One billion people worldwide, and more in wintertime, are estimated to be Vitamin D deficient. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than half of U.S. adults are regularly “popping vitamins and supplements,” including Vitamin D, with “scientific evidence” indicating it can help treat bone loss, among other “proven benefits.” Despite this trend, 76% of pregnant women are severely Vitamin D deficient, as are nearly half (48%) of girls age 9-11 and a sizable percentage of minorities (e.g., Hispanic, Black, Asian). Several recent studies suggest a link between low vitamin D and skin disorders, hair loss, depression, Type 1 diabetes, pre-menopausal breast cancer, and more.
But don’t stress. A new nutrition/beauty combo has Vitamin D covered and works to tackle this major health issue. Skin Authority announces a new, natural Vitamin D solution which addresses deficiency inside and out. “The first commercial whole food source of Vitamin D is revealed with today’s launch of VitaD Fortified™ Illuminating DUO,” says Skin Authority CEO Celeste Hilling.
Hilling and the Skin Authority team worked with Dole Nutrition Institute for nearly two years in harnessing the only 100% vegan, whole food, plant-based sources of Vitamin D, “Skin Authority partnered with Dole Nutrition Institute because we share a vision that health is an ‘inside out’ concern. We took the topical expertise of Skin Authority and combined it with Dole’s nutrition expertise. The DUO is the first in a series of partnerships that take nutrition from the table to the cosmetic counter.”
Why Vitamin D:
· Vitamin D sufficiency may be as important to disease prevention as eating healthy and exercising.
· Vitamin D deficiency may be linked to cancer, cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disease, bone loss, eczema, psoriasis, depression, and many other serious health conditions.
· Vitamin D directly or indirectly controls over 1,000 genes in the body.
· It’s not possible to get enough Vitamin D through food sources or diet.
· Seasonal variations (such as dreary weather in the winter), geographical location, and aging reduce our skin’s ability to manufacture Vitamin D from sunlight.
The Dish on the DUO - A Complete “Nutrition Sandwich”:
The new VitaD Fortified Illuminating DUO combines Skin Authority’s VitaD Fortified Topical Elixir to brighten and strengthen the skin with its VitaD Fortified Whole Food Spice Powder, a whole food powder to sprinkle on your food throughout the day to replenish the body’s internal Vitamin D levels. As recently reported in the Wall Street Journal, it is more beneficial to get Vitamin D from food sources rather than supplements and VitaD enhances the levels of Vitamin D in any food you eat.
Suggests Hilling, “Vitamin D is manufactured in the skin. Less than 1% of the nutrients we ingest ever makes its way to the skin. In addition to boosting internal levels of D, we need to also insure our skin is receiving its benefits as well. The VitaD Fortified Illuminating DUO is an easy, effective way to add Vitamin D into a daily routine without the hassle factor. The unique ‘inside out’ delivery system offers a complete nutrition sandwich that is safe for everyone.”
