Under-Eye Circles
Are there any vitamins I can take to help eliminate dark circles under the eyes?
There are many causes for dark circles under the eye, including allergies, stress, fatigue, illness, weight loss, aging skin, smoking and hyper-pigmentation. Therefore, there is no one-size-fits-all vitamin solution to this cosmetic problem. Check with your doctor to see if you are iron deficient - sometimes that is the cause of these unsightly circles. Ensure you get enough vitamin C, vitamin E and zinc in your diet, or talk to a nutritionist about appropriate supplements. Some topical eye creams on the market contain vitamin K to counteract under-eye circles. The best advice is to get plenty of sleep and drink lots of water.
