REV0420 –  Vitamin C, Your Skin, and Collagen: Beauty From the Inside Out #2

When you think of anything in your body, you have to think holistically: meaning your brain controls every cell in your body with signaling molecules and messages and the brain gets input from either your mind or your heart, your spirit. So when we look at something like skin, we’ve been trained to think of skin as just skin, and what do we need to put on the skin to make it healthier? We’ve already started off with the wrong premise. Most people in the country look at it this way: if you have a skin problem, fix the skin. If you have a heart problem fix the heart. If you have a joint problem, fix the joint — and so on and so on. But this is the wrong approach — it always has been for one reason: your skin, your heart, your joints are not independent of the rest of your body (that is a 100 trillion cell community controlled by the brain). So when you have a skin problem, you have to look first to the brain, then to the nervous system, then to circulatory system, then to the lymphatic system, then to the hormonal system then, to the digestive system, then to the elimination system, and finally, after all of that, you look to the organ itself — and 99% of the time that has already been corrected when you took care of everything upstream of the organ.

This is the new paradigm shift. This is the way you look at everything in your health and your life. So skin is not simply skin — it’s either your mind, your stress, your life talking to your brain, which then talks to your whole community of cells, including your skin; or it’s your heart, your spirit, your peace, your joy, your love that speaks to your brain, which then talks to your whole community of cells, including your skin.

Do you see the difference in the two approaches? The approach of looking at only the skin address less than 1% of the issues, whereas if you look at the mind versus the heart/spirit giving input to the brain giving input to all the systems of the body — this is treating 99 percent of the problem, which is where you always find results and success.  Now we’re going to use that same model with everything we look at from now on: this is seeing with new eyes. This is seeing from a much higher view.

Having your brain analyzed for stress blockages is the key to treating your skin and your overall health, because now you’re treating at the highest upstream level: you’re treating the source of the signaling messages, molecules, and frequencies, commanding the cells of your skin.

Start adding vitamin C-rich food to your diet. The best source for vitamin C that has the lowest glycemic index and will not cause other issues in the body are these three:

Most sweet fruit should be avoided because of the sugar content, which can increase inflammation in the body. So it’s important to get to the vitamins, the minerals, and the phytonutrients from food sources that have very low glycemic indexes, and very low, if any, sweet taste.

Take vitamin C orally to ensure proper dosage and consistent vitamin C levels throughout all levels of the dermis and the epidermis.

At Revolution New Medicine we recommend:

Vitamin C is not just a cosmetic “brightener.” It is an essential structural nutrient for collagen and a powerful defender of your skin. When you raise vitamin C intake from real food and simple supplementation, the skin responds with higher vitamin C levels, thicker collagen-rich dermis, and faster renewal.

At the same time, chronic stress and cortisol quietly pull in the opposite direction, increasing collagen breakdown and slowing repair.

True, lasting skin rejuvenation is never just about what you put on your face. It is about feeding the skin from within — with vitamin C-rich, living plant foods and targeted supplementation — and freeing the skin from the constant catabolic pull of stress and cortisol so collagen can be built, not burned.
