The Brain-Beauty Connection
Before we are born, when we are in an embryonic state, the layer of cells that eventually develop into skin are also responsible for making brain cells. Therefore, what is healthy for the skin is also important to the brain. Conversely, what is harmful to the skin is also detrimental to the brain. A perfect example of this is a low-fat or non-fat diet. It has been shown that a lack of essential fatty acids and the proper fats leads to dull and wrinkled skin. In addition, a deficiency of such essential fats results in lowered brain function and depressed mood.
