Abstract

The role of diet in aging skin is highly controversial with limited available scientific data. There are recommended daily allowances for vitamins and other essential nutrients necessary for the maintenance of health, but these allowances were arrived at by consensus rather than science. These nutritional allowances are set at the minimum required for health, providing little advice as to the optimal nutritional intake for a given age. We now know that the requirements set for vitamin D intake were too low and not properly age adjusted. This contribution examines the role of nutrition, glycation, and oxidation in skin aging.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Strict control of blood sugar for four months can reduce production of glycosylated collagen by 25%, and low-sugar food prepared by boiling can also reduce production of AGEs.

    “However, strict control of blood sugar for four months can reduce the production of glycosylated collagen by 25%, and low-sugar food prepared by boiling can also reduce the production of AGEs [93,94,95].”

  • A high-sugar diet, ultraviolet irradiation, and eating barbecued fried foods lead to accumulation of AGEs and acceleration of skin aging.

  • Skin disorders can result from poor nutrition, such as scurvy (vitamin C deficiency) and atopic dermatitis associated with essential fatty acid deficiency.

    “Dermatologist are well aware that skin disorders can result from poor nutrition, such as scurvy (vitamin C deficiency), atopic dermatitis, which is associated with essential fatty acid deficiency, and people who do not eat well do not look well; meaning eating better results in”

  • Dietary (via vitamins) and supplementation of antioxidant-rich ingredients (e.g., polyphenolic compounds like green tea or beta-carotene, lycopene) improve parameters of skin structure, density and elasticity and protect against damaging influence of UV exposure.

    “Moreover, both dietary (via vitamins) and supplementation of antioxidant-rich ingredients (i.e., polyphenolic compounds like green tea or beta-carotene, lycopene, etc.) have been reported to improve parameters of skin structure, density and elasticity and protect against the damaging influence of UV exposure [64,67].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
