Japanese researchers have found that vitamin C can thicken skin by switching on genes that boost skin cell growth, helping reverse age-related thinning.
Vitamin C works by reactivating DNA through a process that lets cells regenerate more effectively.
It does so by promoting the removal of methyl groups from DNA, in a process known as DNA demethylation.
When a TET enzyme inhibitor was applied, these effects were reversed, confirming that VC functions through TET-mediated DNA demethylation.
This suggests that VC may be particularly helpful for older adults or those with damaged or thinning skin, boosting the skin's natural capacity to regenerate and strengthen itself.
