Wissenswertes über "Dark circles"
Dark circles are dark discolourations under the eyes that can be caused by various factors.
Circles under the eyes are dark discolourations under the eyes that can be caused by various factors. They occur when the skin under the eyes becomes thinner, blood vessels are more visible or fluid and pigment accumulate under the skin. The causes are varied and range from genetic predisposition, lack of sleep and stress to nutritional deficiencies or impaired blood circulation.
A common reason for dark circles is lack of sleep, which impairs the oxygen supply and regeneration of the skin. Stress, excessive salt intake and alcohol can also affect blood flow to the fine capillaries under the eyes and increase dark circles. Insufficient hydration can also lead to poor microcirculation, making the skin dull and blood vessels more visible. In addition, dark circles can be a sign of nutrient deficiencies, particularly iron deficiency, which leads to a reduced oxygen supply to the tissue.
There are various approaches to treating dark circles. Sufficient sleep quality and a balanced fluid balance are essential to regenerate the skin and improve blood circulation. Cooling eye masks or compresses with green tea and caffeine can help to reduce puffiness and constrict the blood vessels. Antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E and polyphenols promote skin elasticity and reduce oxidative stress, which contributes to skin ageing.
Lactoferrin is increasingly being studied in naturopathy as it has anti-inflammatory and cell-protecting properties that can have a positive effect on skin health. Collagen, Hyaluronic acid and Omega-3 fatty acids help to moisturise and firm the skin, while a healthy diet rich in phytonutrients improves microcirculation.
In the long term, a nutrient-rich diet, good sleep hygiene and targeted skin care help to minimise dark circles and strengthen the skin structure. Anyone suffering from chronic dark circles should have possible causes such as iron deficiency or allergies clarified in order to counteract them in a targeted manner.
