And with the high temperatures comes the desire to enjoy the hottest season of the year. However, we mustn't let our guard down and neglect our health. Colds, flu and skin problems are more common than we realise during this period. That's why we recommend including these 5 essential supplements in your diet to complement your summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-astaxantina\"><strong>Astaxanthin<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Spending hours in the sun is marvellous, but exposure to UV light can increase the risk of developing skin cancer, spots, redness and other problems. By <a href=\"https:\/\/algicel.pt\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">consume astaxanthin<\/a>It also helps the body fight excess free radicals, assisting in the production of collagen, as well as preventing oxidative damage to the body caused by stress and physical activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to ingest this substance is through supplements such as Azora Astaxanthin, which can help preserve skin health, favour greater resistance to UV rays and protect the body from oxidative stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vitamina-c\"><strong><strong>Vitamin C<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>During the summer, the skin is constantly attacked by the sun's harmful rays, favouring excess pigmentation. A <a href=\"https:\/\/ods.od.nih.gov\/factsheets\/VitaminC-Consumer\/#:~:text=The%20body%20also%20needs%20vitamin,protect%20the%20body%20from%20disease.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">vitamin C<\/a> is able to combat the problem, as well as preventing the appearance of the dreaded sun spots. It can also support the immune system and help prevent seasonal allergies (as we spend more time outdoors, we end up exposed to more pollutants).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other benefits associated with its consumption are: reducing tiredness and fatigue, helping to maintain the proper functioning of the central nervous system, improving performance before, during and after intense physical activity, increasing the absorption of iron and vitamin B, participating in collagen synthesis and increasing its production, promoting the healing of cuts and wounds, helping to fight infections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be found in various foods, including broccoli, fruit and tomatoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vitamina-e\"><strong>Vitamin E<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This vitamin is found in foods such as eggs, meat, fruit and vegetables (although in smaller quantities). It acts as an antioxidant, helping the liver and the rest of the body to eliminate free radicals and toxins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a fat-soluble vitamin, facilitating its penetration into skin cell membranes and consequently contributing to extra protection for our body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vitamina-a\"><strong><strong>Vitamin A<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most people get vitamin A from eating meat, fish, carrots, sweet potatoes and green leafy vegetables. By taking it in summer, you'll prevent sun damage to your eyesight and help you see more clearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also plays an important role in the body, keeping bones strong and skin healthy, helping to maintain that colour we get in summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vitamina-d\"><strong>Vitamin D<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Believing that we don't suffer from a lack of vitamin D in summer because we spend more time in the sun is a mistake. By using sunscreen (a must for skin health) we prevent sunburn, but we create a barrier that makes it difficult for the body to absorb this substance. The absorption of calcium and phosphorus also increases with vitamin D intake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its consumption is also important for supporting the immune system and contributing to better muscle function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is found in most meats, fish, eggs, tofu, cheese and milk.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summer has arrived stronger than ever!
