IT IS TIME TO GET SUPPLEMENT-AL!
Spa Kingston has been carrying supplements since Day 1 as part of our Acne Clinic program. Not to brag but we have found five incredible supplements that will help you achieve all your #healthgoals.
OptiZinc
Zinc is pretty dang important for you and most of us are actually Zinc deficient. Zinc is a trace element essential for growth and development, healing processes, and the manufacture of proteins and nucleic acids. It is also necessary for over 100 different enzyme systems in the body. When it comes to your skin, Zinc helps drive away acne and pesky zits. According to an article on Honey Colony, “In a Swedish dermatological study, doctors found that the severity of acne lesions decreased from 100 percent to 15 percent in patients receiving 12 weeks of treatment with zinc sulfate (taken orally)”.
Foods High in Zinc Include: Oysters, Spinach, Pumpkin & Sunflower Seeds, Lentils, Chickpeas, Chicken, Cacao
Co-Enzyme Q10
Coenzyme Q10 is essential to human life and anti-aging but many people haven’t even heard about it. As people age, or experience environmental stresses, their cells’ ability to produce coenzyme Q10 diminishes (usually around 25-30). Taking coenzyme Q10 aids in maintaining youthful levels of this vital substance that does so many incredible things for your skin.
Since it makes sure your skin cells are healthy, it repairs any damage therefore re-energizing your skin, making it appear more youthful and less dull. It also helps to protect against photo-aging (aka premature aging due to sun overexposure). If these facts weren’t enough to make you race to Spa Kingston to purchase these softgels, Coenzyme Q10 also stimulates collagen production to prevent wrinkles and leathery skin. This antioxidant is helping you make more collagen so CoQ10 is a skin saving essential.
Foods High in Co-Enzyme10 Include: Tuna, Beef, Chicken, Sesame Seeds, Peanuts, Broccoli, Oranges
Omega-3
Omega 3 is one of the most popular, highest selling supplements on the market; but do you know if your Omega 3 supplement is potent or full of fillers? The Omega-3 Supplement we carry at Spa Kingston meets the highest Potency, Purity and Performance standards on the market today.

PB8
Did you know that each and every human has a tiny world living inside of them? The inhabitants of this small “world,” are generally bacteria, and have a lot to do with the health and function of your gut! Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that support intestinal health and the body’s immune response. They also have some pretty amazing skin benefits!
When our gut is not healthy, and there are more bad bacteria than good bacteria, several problems can arise including chronic inflammation, which is a cause of acne and other skin issues. If you are looking to clear up your skin, you have to start with your gut!
Foods High in Probiotics: Yogurt with Live Cultures, Kefir (similar to yogurt), Kombucha, Miso Soup, Apple Cider Vinegar
Vitamin D3
Often nicknamed the “Sunshine Vitamin”, Vitamin D3 is typically produced in the skin as a response to sun exposure. But laying at the beach isn’t your only way to get your Vitamin D intake, we have the perfect D3 supplement for you at Spa Kingston.
D3 is extremely important for your immune system, teeth and bones and is the key to beautiful skin. This nutrient helps to reduce acne, boost skin elasticity, stimulate collagen production, and enhance your skin’s natural radiance. D3 also minimizes expression lines and the dark spots and pigmentation that can appear with age.
