Cell turnover is the continuous process of shedding dead skin cells and subsequently replacing them with younger cells. This essential process makes our skin look shinier and tighter, and gets rid of fine lines and wrinkles more quickly.

Medical researchers have recently demonstrated that cellular turnover is controlled by the gut, its microbiome, and nutrient absorption. Simply put, when your gut starts aging, the digestion and nutrient absorption slow down. As a consequence, the cellular turnover slows down and your skin starts aging too.
