Diet to treat Age Spot

The following is extracted from

Diet should consist of as many raw fruits and vegetables as possible, and make sure to drink plenty of water to keep the system cleansed. Processed foods, fried foods, junk foods, fast foods, sodas, sweets, sugar, caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco should be eliminated.

Perhaps the most common nutritional deficiency that can lead to age spots is a deficiency in potassium. There are a great number of potassium rich foods, including apricots, avocados, bananas, cantaloupe, dates, figs, kiwi fruit, and melons, to name just a few.

A selenium deficiency can be another cause of age spots. Selenium is an essential trace mineral that plays an important role in protecting cells from free radicals.

The following supplements will help in treating and reversing age spots:

Vitamin C

Vitamin E (internally and topically)

Zinc (Note: do not take more than 15 mg of zinc daily over a long period of time, as it can interfere with proper absorption of copper)
