Logic dictates that it would be better if you could take care of your skin from inside out and not merely from the outside. Apparently that’s the hot thing now.

If the idea of basking in the sun makes you immediately think of sunscreen, that’s what people usually do, right? Well, the new thing is a dietary supplement dubbed R.G. Skin Revitalizer.

As you can guess from the name, it’s from the tropical “superfruit” Gâc, from which oil is extracted, and full of carotenoid antioxidants. Even if you’re not a health nut, you should know that carotenoid antioxidants not only make your immune system stronger but helps skin rebuild itself from damage and makes it stronger.

The fruit called Gâc (pictured above) can be as large as a cantaloupe. It grows on vines and can be found from South China to North Australia, but particularly Vietnam. It is commonly grown in home gardens.

Best of all, apart from the usual benefits of eating fruits as part of one’s daily diet, this particular fruit also nourishes one’s skin that does not merely work at the surface, but literally from the inside out. And may I add, this can’t be found in diet pills.

Now one could rightly ask, there are other, more established fruit supplements such as noni, mangosteen and acai. What is the big deal with Gac then?

First thing, is RG is oil, not juice. Being an oil has its advantages: fat soluble nutrient digestion is assisted by natural fruit oils. Meaning to say, the other fruits and vegetables might be equally rich in carotenoids, but because they come in juice form, they are hence almost devoid of fat, and this could limit the human body’s ability to absorb some of these nutrients.
