Dark Circles Under Your Eyes?

By Tony Lee

Having dark circles under your eyes is a very common and distressing condition. Many people believe that they are caused by not getting enough sleep, and in fact that is the main cause. You've probably experienced sleepless nights caused by a personal, work or financial situation. A few days later you notice a change to your facial appearance in the form of dark discoloration under your eyes. More than likely, lack of proper sleep is the cause.

But if you’re the type of person who enjoys at least 8 hours of restful sleep and dark circles still haunt you, there may be issues a simple as nutrition involved. There are many other reasons that this condition could affect you and although lack of sleep ranks number one, it could be as simple as a vitamin deficiency.

Age is a factor that we cannot escape. As we reach the age of thirty, the amount of collagen and elastin fibers that the body produces starts to slow down. These fibers are responsible for giving our skin its firmness and elasticity. Puffiness or swelling under the eyes can also cause darkness in the skin area under the eyes. This is simply a side effect of aging and may or may not disappear.

Vitamin deficiencies should never be overlooked when it comes to having dark circles under your eyes. Many dermatologists have recently discovered Vitamin K to be successful on the reduction and treatment of dark circles under the eyes. Vitamin K in a cream or topical solution can be applied to the affected area. Vitamin B-3, also known as niacin, can also be helpful in reducing the effects of this condition.

One other recent discovery that doctors have focused on is iron, or the lack of. In fact many physicians claim that the appearance of dark circles can be attributed to a bad diet or unhealthy eating habits.

Perhaps this is a reminder to all of us that nutrition is just as important as sleep!
