Achieve Radiant, Resilient Skin from the Inside Out
Skin is our largest organ, intricately tied to detoxification, gut health, hormone balance, mitochondrial function, and the integrity of the connective tissue matrix. At Tree of Light Health, we believe true skin health begins from within. This protocol provides a holistic path to support your skin's structure, hydration, elasticity, and repair using science-backed supplements and therapies.
Key Supplements for Skin Health
1. Collagen MB by Systemic Formulas
Collagen MB is a professional-grade, multi-source collagen blend that includes Type I, II, III, V, and X collagens to support skin elasticity, hydration, and structural resilience.
Key Benefits:
• Improves dermal thickness and reduces wrinkles
• Supports wound healing and skin regeneration
• Contains added cofactors like hyaluronic acid and glycine for optimal matrix formation
Suggested Use: 1 scoop daily in water, smoothie, or tea.
2. BioSil – Collagen Generator (Silicon)
BioSil activates the body’s natural collagen production through choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid (ch-OSA®), a bioavailable form of silicon.
Mechanisms of Action:
• Enhances collagen, elastin, and keratin synthesis
• Improves skin firmness and reduces fine lines
• Strengthens hair and nails
Suggested Dose: 2 capsules daily or as directed.
3. Phosphatidylcholine Liquid (PC)
Phosphatidylcholine is a critical component of healthy cell membranes, supporting both skin barrier function and detox pathways through liver and bile health.
Benefits:
• Promotes supple, hydrated skin
• Supports liver detoxification and bile flow (important for hormonal skin issues)
• Aids cellular repair and mitochondrial health
Suggested Use: 1 tsp daily with food, or as directed.
4. Alpha Base with Iron – Multivitamin + Antioxidants
This professional-grade multivitamin provides full-spectrum support, including key antioxidants like vitamins A, C, E, zinc, selenium, and B vitamins.
Skin Benefits:
• Combats oxidative stress
• Supports cellular repair and collagen synthesis
• Aids methylation, detoxification, and energy
Suggested Use: 4 capsules daily with meals.
5. Liposomal Vitamin C
Liposomal delivery ensures high bioavailability, essential for collagen production, skin immune defense, and antioxidant protection.
Key Benefits:
• Stimulates fibroblast collagen production
• Protects skin from free radical damage
• Reduces hyperpigmentation and inflammation
Suggested Use: 1 tsp (1,000 mg) daily or more under supervision.
6. Glycine
Glycine is one of the three amino acids needed to make glutathione (the body’s master antioxidant) and is essential for collagen structure.
Skin-Specific Benefits:
• Promotes skin repair and elasticity
• Enhances detox and gut health
• Supports sleep and relaxation (crucial for repair cycles) Suggested Dose: 3–5 grams daily in water or tea.
7. MSM – Methylsulfonylmethane
MSM is a sulfur-rich compound that supports collagen cross-linking and cellular detoxification.
Mechanisms:
• Boosts glutathione production
• Reduces skin inflammation and improves clarity
• Improves collagen formation and elasticity
Suggested Dose: 3,000–7,000 mg per day depending on tolerance.
8. Advanced Carnosine – Repair (Oral)
Carnosine is a powerful anti-glycation compound that protects skin from AGE (advanced glycation end product) damage, a key factor in aging.
Benefits:
• Slows skin aging by protecting collagen from sugar damage • Supports cellular longevity and repair
• Combats oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction
9. Carnosine Skin Cream (Topical)
Pairs beautifully with oral carnosine. Topically protects and nourishes delicate skin.
Suggested Use: Apply 1–2x daily to fine lines, sun-damaged, or irritated areas.
Other Therapeutic Strategies
Red Light Therapy (660–850 nm)
Red and near-infrared light supports mitochondrial energy production in skin cells and enhances healing and collagen synthesis.
Benefits:
• Boosts ATP production
• Reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and inflammation
• Enhances topical product absorption
Use a high-quality home panel or professional unit for 5–20 minutes daily.
Sunlight & Vitamin D
Natural sunlight in moderation promotes vitamin D production and skin microbiome balance. Consider supplementing if levels are low.
Skin Microbiome Support
Healthy skin flora can prevent breakouts, rashes, and sensitivity. We often recommend gentle, topical probiotics, and avoid harsh soaps.
Addressing Fungal Skin Components
Some chronic skin issues are fungal in nature (especially when itchy, flaky, or circular). We offer gentle topical antifungal solutions and internal herbs like berberine, oregano oil, and undecylenic acid. Work with your practitioner for proper evaluation.
Detoxification & Skin
Because the skin is a detox organ, internal toxicity often shows up externally. Acne, eczema, and rashes are frequently signs that the liver, lymph, or GI tract need support.
Please reach out to us for our comprehensive detox protocol.
Key Detox Support Strategies:
• Binders: Activated charcoal, chlorella, or GI detox blends to trap toxins
• Drainers: Herbal support for lymph (burdock, echinacea, dandelion)
• Foot Detox Baths: Stimulate drainage every 3–4 days • Infrared Sauna & Coffee Enemas: Enhance phase I & II liver detox
• Hydration & Electrolytes: Water with trace minerals between meals
Final Thoughts
This protocol is ideal for:
• Dry, aging, or dull skin
• Wrinkles, collagen loss, or scarring
• Acne, redness, and skin inflammation
• Overall skin rejuvenation and resilience
As always, we recommend an integrative skin workup that includes dermatology when appropriate. However, we’ve found these natural and holistic supports remarkably effective for many of our patients.
