Good health has been always associated with nutrition and skin quality. It is apparent that we all desire to live longer healthy lives while maintaining a youthful appear- acne. A vast amount of epidemiological and clinical studies link various nutrients to health benefits in tissues and organs. Recent interest in these relations is triggering progressive reexploration by the dermatological community, particularly where connections between diet and skin have previously been dismissed. A promising volume of publications and findings now support ideas and validate theories that key nutrients are imperative for healthy skin. We seek to elucidate not only the potential health benefits that certain diets or nutrients bring to various tissues and organs but also the contrib- uting effects on our skin health and visible condition. It is up to all of us—scientists, doctors, the industry, the sponsoring agencies, the government, and all the people— to find this extra time, effort, and help to address, although not life-threatening, an issue closely associated with the quality of life, health, and well-being.

This book provides a clear and easily understandable review of the topics presented, while maintaining a purely scientific approach, conforming to data supported by scientifically researched criteria. The book relies on common, accepted knowledge in the field of dermatology, as it appears in the conventional dermatology textbooks and peer reviewed journals [such as those cited on Medline (PubMed), a computerized database of medical journal articles]. Many of the chapters discuss common skin problems and conventional skin treatments, such as bleaching of dark skin spots and peeling. These chapters are intended to broaden the reader’s knowledge regarding the wide range of available regimens, and not to encourage readers to diagnose and treat skin disorders requiring the advice of a dermatologist.
