Believe me. I am 83, I take all of these supplements, plus Dr Sinclair's suggested Resveratrol and NMN, and I follow a good, non processed food diet, and I absolutely have not a wrinkle on my face. I'm the surprise of any doctor.
Thanks for your suggestions Dr Amir, Sir, You are spot on.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Mr Karam can you make a video regarding any facial creams containing Estriol or Estrodial which are flooding the internet right now targeting menopausal women who are such easy targets since any woman going through this phase of life can be very desperate and vulnerable. It is a real important topic. Nobody should bull shitted during this already challenging time in women lives. THANK YOU.

Please do a video on menopause and hormones and wrinkles, weight gain, body speeding up aging process. I know there’s a lot of concern about breast cancer and taking hormones in menopause. But I just heard something about all those studies being done ages and ages ago and the studies weren’t done correctly, so they really didn’t know if May have been candidates for getting cancer anyway. So please do a video on when a person should start taking hormones and when it may not be the best thing or if there’s a better alternative to this, and who am I person might go to to start hormone therapy. Because I’ve heard that most gynecologist don’t really know much about menopause at all. That’s the least studied portion of OB/GYN so what kind of education should a person be looking for when they’re looking for a doctor to start hormonal therapy with? As always, your videos are so informational thank you so much.

I think what you’re doing is wonderful. You help so many young and older. Thank you!

Dr. Karam, this is one of your best videos. I believe there are things women and men should do before having any plastic surgery done. One of them are all the things you talk about in this video. It's important to eat right, take vitamins and supplements, exercise, and be consistent with skin care. There is another thing that is important and that we need to consider in the equation, and that is our teeth because our teeth have to do with our wellness, ex: internal organs one being, heart for example. Getting back to why this should be addressed before having plastic surgery is because we need to be consistent with the care of our teeth. If we are not brushing twice a day for approximately 2 min a day, getting dental checkups we need to ger on the band wagon with this. You don't want yellow, rotten, crooked teeth before considering plastic surgery. Take care of your teeth and all things Dr. K speaks about in this video first.

Vegan for 10 years (for the animals) and doing great at 59 - The best I’ve ever felt. Only supplements is B-12 occasionally. 🌱

I do everything that Dr. Karam says. Except I make my own bone broth fot the last 15 years. I am 49. People say I look like I'm in my mid 30s. Bothers me a little. It was late 20s for a while. I contribute a lot of it to weight training since I was 17. But I'm sure everything else has helped - skin care, diet. Gave up alcohol, ultra processed food and sugar a few years ago. Make my own food. Too much crap out there. Most importantly my body feels good. But now I've entered perimenopause/ menapause. Trying to learn how to navigate this next level of life.

Very informative, nice delivery which steers you on the right path to great skin from the inside/out.

I watch these videos while I do my cardio! Dr. Karam is a wealth of information, the videos are greatly appreciated. I am 45 and along with all the common sense choices- sunscreen, no smoking, no drinking, exercise - I've been taking these supplements for years and they work. When I'm ready for my FL, I'm getting on a plane to see Dr. Karam!

[EllaSHeath]

I loved it!! This was such a helpful and needed video, Dr. Karam! I am equally passionate about nutrition and skincare and I find it odd that, in some communities, the two topics are completely disjointed and sometimes even taboo. We are ONE system designed to operate in sync. I love your holistic approach to beauty and commitment to health.

[KubasRevs]

I’d only add silica supplements to the list. Very helpful with building and maintaining good collagen framework

This is why I like Skin School Dr. Karam. I've taken Vitamins for years but never thought about it being in any way to skin health. I can't take anything with biotin in it because it counter acts my thyroid meds that I must take because of thyroid cancer. Bone broth is great in one's diet. A lot of the foods you listed are in my diet and that makes me feel great. Thank you so much Dr. Karam for this great video.

I'm a vegetarian/vegan and so not much to no collegian. Still my skin is smooth, no wrinkles. Nobody thinks I am my age. They usually think my son is my boyfriend (poor him!).
I think eating healthy, drink tea, no smoking, no alcohol and beware of the sun will do way more than any supplement. Just my thoughts... LJ

[JamieHughes-xy]

Thank you so much for including vegan vegetarian options!

[hdwhxid]

Really wish you could recommend certain brands of vitamins & supplements. It would help SO much!!

[kerry]
