Skin Health and DHEA - Anti Aging Reno NV - Dr Ken Romeo

OPINION:   Dr Ken Romeo   775-870-6942

DAY #23

DHEA acts against the everyday damage to skin by maintaining skin immunity. DHEA preserves the ability of the skin to react to cancer-causing, skin destroying pollutants in air, food and water. (Hastings et al and Pashko et al)

Dr Ken Romeo - Anti Aging - Reno NV - A Fruit to Reduce the Signs of Skin Aging that Really Works!

OPINION:  Dr Ken Romeo   775-870-6942

A clinical study was recently conducted to determine whether oral supplementation with a fermented papaya preparation (FPP-treated group) or an antioxidant cocktail (antioxidant-control group, composed of 10 mg trans-resveratrol, 60 µg selenium, 10 mg vitamin E and 50 mg vitamin C) was able to improve the skin antioxidant capacity and the expression of key skin genes, while promoting skin anti aging effects.

The study enrolled 60 healthy non-smoker males and females aged 40-65 years, all of whom showed clinical signs of skin aging. The subjects were randomly divided into two

matched groups, and were administered Papaya or the antioxidant treatment of a 4.5 g/day sachet sublingually twice a day for 90 days in a double-blind fashion.

The parameters investigated were: Skin surface, brown spots, skin evenness, skin moisturization, elasticity (face), redox balance, nitric oxide (NO) concentration, and the expression levels of key genes (outer forearm sample).

As compared with the baseline (day 0) and antioxidant-control values, PAPAYA-treated subjects showed a significant improvement in skin evenness, moisturization and elasticity.

This finding suggests that orally-administered FPP showed a consistent biological and gene-regulatory improvement in the skin, as has also demonstrated in previous experimental and clinical trials testing other tissues, while common oral antioxidants had only a minor effect.

Dr Ken Romeo - Rutin. Skin Savior or Scam? - Anti Aging - Reno Nevada

OPINION:  Dr Ken Romeo   775-870-6942

Rutin, a quercetin glycoside is a member of the bioflavonoid family which is known to possess antioxidant properties. It can be purchased in tablet or cream form on the internet and in stores.

In a recent study, scientists aimed to confirm the anti‑aging effects of rutin on human dermal fibroblasts and human skin.

To examine the effects of rutin in vivo, rutin‑containing cream was applied to human skin. A double-blind clinical study was conducted in 40 subjects aged between 30-50 years and divided into control and experimental groups.

They examined the effects of rutin using a cell viability assay, senescence-associated-β-galactosidase assay, reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and by measuring free radical scavenging activity in vitro.

The test material was applied for 4 weeks. After 2 and 4 weeks, dermal density, skin elasticity, the length and area of crow's feet, and number of under-eye wrinkles following the application of either the control or the rutin-containing cream were analyzed.

Bottom line: Rutin increased the mRNA expression of collagen, type I, alpha 1 (COL1A1) and decreased the mRNA expression of matrix metallopeptidase 1 (MMP1) in HDFs.

The study verified that ROS scavenging activity was stimulated by rutin in a dose‑dependent manner and it identified that rutin exerted protective effects under conditions of oxidative stress.

Furthermore, rutin increased skin elasticity and decreased the length, area and number of wrinkles. The consequences of human aging are primarily visible on the skin, such as increased wrinkling, sagging and decreased elasticity. Overall, this study demonstrated the biological effects of rutin on ROS-induced skin aging.

According to WebMD, "RUTIN Side Effects & Safety: Rutin is LIKELY SAFE when taken by mouth in amounts found in fruits and vegetables. Rutin is POSSIBLY SAFE when taken by mouth appropriately in medicinal amounts for a short period of time. It can cause some side effects including headache, flushing, rashes, or stomach upset."

The HARF does not endorse any specific Rutin products.

Yours in Health!

Dr Ken Romeo – Anti Aging – Aspirin! A Best Buy for Exfoliation and Skin Health – Reno Nevada

OPINION:  Dr Ken Romeo  775-870-6942

123rf.com

I can’t think of a better profession than working in Anti Aging and Anti Inflammatory Sciences. There is no greater reward for a physician than to have their patients get healthy and watch them look and feel younger. Slowing, stopping and reversing the progression of cardiovascular, arthritis and diabetes is a reward unlike any other.

The advantage of seeing a professional anti aging practitioner is not only the custom results that become obvious very quickly, but also (given a knowledgeable practitioner) the client saves money by not purchasing marginally effective anti aging products.

Here’s an example:

Exfoliants not only help remove dead skin cells that weigh down and suffocate aging skin, but also stimulate the production of Glycosaminoglycans***, improve skin moisture, and boost the activity of skin-protecting antioxidants.

Exfoliants range in price from super cheap (which may be too harsh) to, “Honey, we need to take a second mortgage on our house to buy my anti aging products!”

I have found that the most effective – and cheapest – way to exfoliate the skin is to use regular aspirin tablets. (Don’t buy enteric coated aspirin for exfoliation. A bottle of 500 aspirin will cost you less than $10 and will last for up to a year depending on how many times you exfoliate your skin)

In a small amount of warm water, crush five 325mg aspirin tablets to create a paste, and then spread on your face and neck. Allow it to dry before rinsing it off with a soft washcloth.

Aspirin is not only an anti-inflammatory, but the salicylic acid in aspirin loosens dead skin, revealing fresher, softer skin. Exfoliation with aspirin is recommended to be used no more than once per week.

Exfoliation with aspirin works! It’s cost effective. It’s powerful.

BE SURE TO CHECK A SMALL PART OF YOUR BODY WITH THIS MIXTURE PRIOR TO USING IT ON YOUR FACE AND NECK.

BE SURE TO CHECK WITH YOUR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL PRIOR TO USE ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE ON BLOOD THINNING MEDICATIONS.

Yours in Health!

***Glycosaminoglycans: A family of carbohydrates that help with the maintenance and support of collagen and elastin.

Glycosaminoglycans primary role is to maintain and support collagen, elastin and turgidity (bounce) in the cellular spaces and keep protein fibers in balance and proportion. It also promotes the ability of the collagen and elastin fibers to retain moisture, therefore remaining soluble. In skin care products, they are essential to the epidermal & dermal cells metabolism and keeping the collagen and elastin of the skin in good condition. Glycosaminoglycans are important in the reaction of copper peptides to help repair wrinkles and scarring. Known as the water reserve of the viable epidermis and dermis, these carbohydrates are dependent on fluid intake. Glycosaminoglycans are also linked to the lymphatic system. (Source: PUBMED & WIKIPEDIA)

Dr Ken Romeo - Anti Aging Reno Nevada - Is Your Aloe Vera Too Old?

OPINION:  Dr Ken Romeo   775-870-6942

Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis M.) is used extensively in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products. Why? Aloe works!

www.123rf.comproducts.

We are exposed daily to Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. UV radiation induces damage to the skin, which in turn causes depletion of the dermal extracellular matrix and chronic alterations in skin structure.

Code word? Wrinkles and crow's feet!

A study was recently conducted which examined whether baby aloe shoot extract, which is from the one-month-old shoots of Aloe vera, and adult aloe shoot extract, which is from the four-month-old shoots of Aloe vera, have a protective effect on UVB-induced skin photoaging in normal human dermal fibroblasts.

Results?

It turns out that baby shoot extract may potentially protect the skin from UVB-induced damage more than adult extract.

But a larger question looms...

Has anyone ever seen a product label that states the age of Aloe Vera in the product? This, as well as most of science, remains a mystery.

Please write to me if you find one at the e-mail address listed below.

Dr Ken Romeo - Anti Aging - Reno NV - A Creamless Way to Reduce Crow's Feet!

OPINION:  Dr Ken Romeo   775-870-6942

"Scientists tested the efficacy of oral supplements astaxanthin, a well known remedy against wrinkles with a patented Rose Hip powder, Hyben Vital®, which is made from the seeds and shells of Rosa canina, on cell senescence, skin wrinkling, and aging." The results are statistically significant.

"A total of 34 healthy subjects, aged 35-65 years, with wrinkles on the face (crow's-feet) were subjected to a randomized and double-blinded clinical study of the effects of the rose hip powder, as compared to astaxanthin. During the 8-week study, half of the participants ingested the standardized rose hip product, while the other half ingested astaxanthin.

Objective measurements of facial wrinkles, skin moisture, and elasticity were made by at the beginning of the study, after 4 weeks, and after 8 weeks. Evaluation of participant satisfaction of both supplements was assessed using questionnaires.

See Source Below.

In addition, the effect of the rose hip preparation on cell longevity was measured in terms of leakage of hemoglobin through red cell membranes (hemolytic index) in blood samples kept in a blood bank for 5 weeks. Significance of all values was attained with P≤0.05.

In the double-blinded study, the rose hip group showed statistically significant improvements in crow's-feet wrinkles (P<0.05), skin moisture (P<0.05), and elasticity (P<0.05) after 8 weeks of treatment.

A similar improvement was observed for astaxanthin, with P-values 0.05, 0.001, and 0.05. Likewise, both groups expressed equal satisfaction with the results obtained in their self-assessment. The rose hip powder further resulted in increased cell longevity of erythrocyte cells during storage for 5 weeks in a blood bank.

The results suggest that intake of the standardized rose hip powder Hyben Vital® improves aging-induced skin conditions. The apparent stabilizing effects of the rose hip product on cell membranes of stored erythrocyte cells observed in this study may contribute to improve the cell longevity and obstructing skin aging."

Cell longevity is essential for good aging.

According to WebMD, the side effects and safety are:

Rose hip is LIKELY SAFE for adults when taken by mouth appropriately. Rose hip is POSSIBLY SAFE when applied to the skin appropriately, short-term.

Rose hip can cause some side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, heartburn, stomach cramps, fatigue, headache, inability to sleep, and others. Inhaling rose hip dust can cause an allergic reaction in some people.

Special Precautions & Warnings:

Pregnancy and breast-feeding: There is not enough reliable information about the safety of taking rose hip if you are pregnant or breast feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid using amounts larger than those found in food.

Bleeding conditions: Rugosin E, a chemical found in rose hip, might slow blood clotting. Taking rose hip might increase the risk of bleeding in people with bleeding disorders.

Diabetes: The vitamin C in rose hip might affect the control of diabetes, but not all experts agree on this.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD deficiency): Large amounts of the vitamin C in rose hip might increase the risk of complications.

Kidney stones: Large amounts of the vitamin C in rose hop might increase the risk for kidney stones.

Iron-related disorders such as hemochromatosis, thalassemia, or anemia: Use rose hip with caution if you have any of these conditions. The vitamin C in rose hip can increase iron absorption, which could make your condition worse.

Sickle cell disease: It is rare, but the vitamin C in rose hip might make blood more acidic, and this could bring on a sickle cell crisis. It’s best to avoid use.

Surgery: Rugosin E, a chemical found in rose hip, might slow blood clotting. There is concern that rose hip might cause bleeding if used before surgery. People taking rose hip should stop at least 2 weeks before surgery."

Dr Ken Romeo - Anti Aging Protocols for Children? - Reno Nevada

OPINION: Dr Ken Romeo   775-870-6942

Anti aging protocols for children? You've got to be kidding me?! Yet, an anti aging protocol for children may be just what the doctor ordered. Read on...

Cosmeceuticals are products that cause physiologic changes to the skin. They are used for aesthetic purposes and are a popular alternative to plastic surgery for anti aging treatments.

rf123.com

Studies of cosmeceuticals in pediatric populations are few and far between and the safety of using cosmeceuticals on children and teenagers should be a major concern.

The FDA does not recognize cosmeceuticals so the stringent regulatory requirements as in pharmaceutical production do not exist. Manufacturers of cosmeceuticals are virtually unregulated in terms of marketing. As far as published research in the pediatric population on the use of cosmeceuticals? You've got to kidding me.

As of this writing, I could find NO safety and efficacy study existing regarding cosmeceutical use in young children and teenagers. Virtually all studies on cosmeceuticals have been performed in women with varying degrees of skin aging.

The cosmeceuticals most likely to be used by younger children and teen agers are moisturizers and sunscreens.

And do teen agers worry about their skin? Of course they do!

As the popularity of anti aging cosmeceuticals grows, I suspect that anti aging practitioners will encounter more and more beauty-conscious teenagers using cosmeceuticals for preventive rather than restorative purposes.

At the very least, sunscreen use by children should be considered mandatory for early skin protection from the sun's damaging rays.

The increased understanding by scientists of the mechanism underlying skin aging forms the scientific basis for cosmeceutical use - free radical formation, the effects of declining hormones, and ultraviolet radiation. This knowledge prompts cosmeceutical manufacturers to use retinoids, botanicals such as soy isoflavones to construct skin moisturizers and sunscreen.

Anti Aging practitioners should become familiar with the use of common cosmeceuticals used by children and teenagers. Let's face it, more and more children will be exposed to cosmeceuticals and may experience side effects such as contact dermatitis and skin irritation.

Again, the use of sunscreens is a MUST for children!

The safety of our children should be a consideration by both parents and anti aging practitioners alike.

Yours in Health!

Dr Ken Romeo - Anti Aging - Reno Nevada - Papaya vs. A Custom Antioxidant Elixir in Anti Aging

OPINION: Dr Ken Romeo  775-870-6942

It's about time!!!

A study was conducted showing the anti aging effects of  oral supplementation with a fermented papaya preparation versus an antioxidant cocktail consisting of resveratrol, selenium, vitamin E and vitamin C. The study aimed to compare the improvements in skin antioxidant capacity and the expression of key skin genes. The purpose? To measure skin anti aging effects.

The study enrolled 60 healthy non-smoker males and females aged 40-65 years. Each study enrollee showed clinical signs of skin aging. The study was double blind and the papaya vs. antioxidant cocktail was given sublingually twice per day for a total of 90 days.

The study parameters investigated were:

• Skin surface brown spots
• Skin evenness
• Skin moisturization
• Facial elasticity
• Oxidation
• Nitric oxide levels
•  The expression levels of key genes (outer forearm sample).

When compared with baseline, the papaya group showed a significant improvement in skin evenness, moisturization and elasticity.

Levels of MDA (Malondialdehyde) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) were also studied. Both MDA and SOD are markers of oxidative stress. Essentially, the more of these two substances, the better in terms of slowing free radical levels in the body.

Both group's levels MDA and SOD skin concentrations improved, but only the papaya group showed a higher SOD level and a significant Nitric Oxide increase

These findings suggest that orally-administered papaya showed a consistent biological and gene-regulatory improvement in the skin while common oral antioxidants had only a minor effect.

Quercetin - Anti Aging - Reno Nevada - Dr Ken Romeo

OPINION: Dr. Ken Romeo   775-870-6942

dreamstime.com

Our skin performs a multitude of functions. It protects us, it aids in metabolism and regulates many body functions.

However, the skin is under constant attack from continuous exposure to oxidizing and inflammatory agents including the sun and outdoor environment.

These sources of inflammation most likely overload the skin's auto-defense capacity.

To strengthen the skins defense mechanisms against oxidation and inflammation, supplementation with bioflavonoids and antioxidants is a promising strategy.

Quercetin is a flavonoid that is a very effective antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. To me, Quercetin is a candidate of first choice for skin supplementation to decrease damage. Quercetin can protect cells from UV irradiation and support skin regeneration in wound healing.

The problem with Quercetin is its poor solubility and limited skin penetration.

However, a number of formulations have been marketed which increase its dermal penetration. These formulations can be purchased on-line but the price isn't cheap. Quercetin topical formulations and lotions from conventional emulsions to novel nanoformulations in terms of skin penetration enhancements are readily available for use.

Younger looking and well protected skin are a key to a healthy and a complete anti-aging regimen.

Neither I nor HARF endorses any particular Quercetin formulation that is available in the market today.

Yours in Health!

The Royal Skin Treatment - Anti Aging Reno Nevada - Dr Ken Romeo

Opinion: Dr. Ken Romeo  775-870-6942

Royal jelly is a product of the honeybee that has been used in Chinese Medicine for over a

alibaba.com

thousand years. Royal Jelly contains proteins, carbohydrates, fats, free amino acids, vitamins, and minerals and I believe that it is an excellent addition to an anti-aging protocol that focuses on skin health and energy.

Royal Jelly when used medicinally is said to have antitumor, antibacterial, and wound-healing properties.

It was shown (by Dr. HM Park, Department of Medical Science, Kyung Hee University, Seoul, Korea, J Med Foods, 2011) that Royal Jelly enhances the migration of human dermal fibroblasts and alters the levels of cholesterol and sphinganine in in-vitro wound-healing in addition to regulating skin photoaging following exposure to ultraviolet-B radiation. (Note: During the experiment a dietary supplement of 1% Royal Jelly extract was used.)

In his study, Dr. Park also measured the effects of Royal Jelly on ultraviolet (UV)-induced photoaging of the skin and the results were outstanding.

It is my personal conclusion that Royal Jelly may potentially protect the skin from UVB-induced photoaging by enhancing collagen production. If I am right, Royal Jelly is an excellent choice for people seeking to mitigate wrinkled skin and an essential part of an anti aging skin program.

Neither I nor the HARF endorse any particular Royal Jelly product that is for commercial sale.
