00:00Hey everyone, and welcome back to the channel.
00:02Today, we're diving deep into a topic that affects so many of us,
00:07especially as we get older, how to get that firm, youthful skin we all dream of.
00:12If you're a woman over 50, you've probably been told to drink tons of water for better skin.
00:17But what if I told you that drinking plain water might not be enough?
00:21In fact, it could be the reason why, despite all your efforts,
00:24your skin still feels dry, saggy, and less vibrant than you'd like.
00:28I know, it sounds crazy.
00:30You're doing everything right, you're hydrating, you're using good moisturizers,
00:33but the mirror tells a different story.
00:36You see those fine lines getting a little deeper,
00:38the skin around your jawline and neck losing its firmness,
00:41and the general lack of that radiant glow you used to have.
00:44You might think, well, that's just aging.
00:47But it's more complicated than that.
00:49The real culprit isn't just the number of candles on your birthday cake.
00:52It's about what's happening inside your body, specifically with your circulation.
00:56You see, after menopause, our bodies go through some significant changes.
01:01One of the biggest is a dramatic drop in estrogen.
01:04This isn't just about hot flashes.
01:06It directly impacts our skin's health.
01:08Estrogen plays a crucial role in producing something called nitric oxide.
01:13Nitric oxide is like a superhighway manager for your blood vessels.
01:17It tells them to relax and widen, allowing blood to flow freely.
01:20This blood flow is essential, because it carries all the good stuff oxygen and vital nutrients like collagen
01:27to every part of your body, including your skin.
01:30Here's the kicker.
01:31After menopause, our nitric oxide production can plummet by as much as 60%.
01:35When that happens, our blood vessels constrict.
01:39The superhighway turns into a bumpy country road with traffic jams.
01:42Even if you're taking expensive collagen supplements and drinking gallons of water,
01:47those skin-loving nutrients can't reach their destination,
01:51the deep dermal layer of your skin where collagen is made.
01:54Your skin cells are essentially starving,
01:57which is why your skin starts to look tired, dull, and wrinkled.
02:00Think of it this way.
02:02Hydration is about getting water into your system,
02:04but circulation is about delivering that water and other nutrients to your cells.
02:09You can't have one without the other.
02:12This is why so many anti-aging creams and serums don't deliver the results they promise.
02:16They're working on the surface, but the root problem is internal.
02:19The production of collagen is handled by tiny cells in your skin called fibroblasts.
02:24But without a steady supply of nutrients and oxygen delivered by good blood flow,
02:28these fibroblasts get lazy.
02:30They slow down their collagen production.
02:33To make matters worse, after menopause,
02:35the rate at which our existing collagen breaks down can increase by nearly 30%.
02:39So we're producing less and losing more.
02:43It's a double whammy that leads to that loss of firmness and elasticity,
02:46especially around the eyes, jawline, and neck.
02:50So if drinking plain water isn't the whole answer, what is?
02:53The secret lies in boosting our body's natural production of nitric oxide
02:57to get our circulation moving again.
03:00And we can do that by adding specific powerful nutrients to our water.
03:03It's about turning your simple glass of water into a supercharged, skin-rejuvenating elixir.
03:09Let's talk about some of these incredible natural ingredients.
03:12First up is beetroot.
03:14You might know it as a vegetable, but it's a circulation powerhouse.
03:18Beetroot is packed with dietary nitrates.
03:21When you consume them,
03:22your body cleverly converts these nitrates into nitric oxide.
03:26Studies have shown that beetroot can significantly improve microcirculation,
03:30which is the blood flow in the tiniest vessels that feed your skin.
03:34By reviving this flow,
03:35you re-essentially waking up those sleepy fibroblast cells
03:39and telling them to get back to work producing collagen.
03:42Next, we have the beautiful palm granite.
03:44Palm granite does something truly special.
03:47Not only does it support nitric oxide, but it also acts as its bodyguard.
03:51It helps protect the nitric oxide you have from breaking down too quickly.
03:55Plus, palm granite is known to inhibit the enzymes
03:58that actively destroy your skin's collagen.
04:00So, it works on two fronts,
04:02protecting your circulation booster and defending your existing collagen.
04:06Then there's watermelon, or more specifically,
04:09an amino acid found in it called L-citrulline.
04:12Your body is incredibly efficient at converting citrulline into another amino acid,
04:17arginine, which is a direct precursor to nitric oxide.
04:21In fact, taking citrulline is often more effective at boosting nitric oxide levels
04:25than taking arginine itself.
04:27Better nitric oxide levels mean better blood flow,
04:30which has been linked to improve skin elasticity and firmness.
04:33It helps bring that bounce back to your skin.
04:36Another fantastic ingredient from nature is pine bark extract.
04:40This stuff is amazing for the health of your blood vessels themselves.
04:43It helps repair and strengthen the lining of your arteries and capillaries,
04:47making them more efficient at transporting nutrients.
04:50Research on pine bark extract has shown it can increase skin elasticity by 25%
04:55and hydration by 8%,
04:57while also reducing the depth of wrinkles.
05:00It's like a complete tune-up for your skin's delivery system.
05:03Finally, let's not forget the basics.
05:05Leafy greens
05:06A good quality leafy greens powder can be a game-changer.
05:10Greens like spinach and kale are rich in nitrates,
05:13but also provide a cocktail of other skin-loving nutrients like folate, magnesium, and vitamin C.
05:19Vitamin C is particularly important as it's a critical component in the collagen synthesis process.
05:25These greens support your circulation health for the long term.
05:28Combining these ingredients turns your daily hydration routine into a powerful anti-aging strategy.
05:34Instead of just drinking plain water,
05:36you're giving your body the specific tools it needs to improve circulation,
05:40fire up collagen production,
05:41and deliver essential nutrients directly to your skin cells.
05:45This is what it means to heal and rejuvenate your skin from the inside out.
05:48It's not about a quick fix.
05:50True, lasting results come from consistency.
05:54By making this small change,
05:55by supercharging your water,
05:57you readdressing the root cause of why your skin isn't looking its best.
06:01You're moving beyond surface-level treatments
06:03and tackling the internal circulatory issues that come with age.
06:07When your skin starts getting the nourishment it's been craving,
06:10you'll begin to see a real difference.
06:12The fine lines will soften,
06:14your skin will feel firmer and more hydrated,
06:16and that natural, healthy glow will return.
06:19So let's stop thinking that more water is the only answer.
06:22Let's start thinking about making our water work harder for us.
06:26True anti-aging isn't about fighting the years.
06:29It's about working with your body to give it what it needs to thrive at any age.
06:32Thank you so much for watching today.
06:35I hope this gives you a new perspective on skin health after 50.
