Look at your face and the overall condition of your skin to help with determining the type of anti-aging supplement or product you need. Use natural lighting or a mirror that has "outdoor" or "natural" lighting as a setting when examining your skin for the truest appearance of your skin. Observe if your skin is dry, oily or normal to help with choosing the right anti-aging supplement. Take in to account your own age as well as how often you are willing to take the supplements each day.

2
Visit a well-known vitamin or herbal health food store to browse for anti-aging supplements. Ask a customer service associate for help and advice on the anti-aging supplements available in the store. Request brochures or facts about the supplements, including ingredients and any health risks each product poses.
-
3
Check the anti-aging supplement's ingredients to ensure you are not allergic to any of the active ingredients in the product, as this will cause skin irritation or an allergic reaction.
-
4
Verify the anti-aging supplement is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) by locating a "FDA Approved" stamp on the supplement's outer box. Alternatively, read through each ingredient included in the supplement before purchase if it boasts "all natural" ingredients only.
-
5
Look for a guarantee on the product you are purchasing, generally located on the outside of the packaging or box of the supplements. Purchase only supplements with a money-back guarantee if you are not satisfied with the supplements.

Tips & Warnings
Check with each nutritional or vitamin store's own return policy, as each company's return and money-back policies vary.
Nothing works in isolation. All four aging components are interrelated so you can't take isolated does of certain nutrients in an attempt to tackle just one or two of them. This won't work! All four must be addressed simultaneously
Resveratrol is an expensive ingredients. Companies try to sneak it in with ineffective low potencies (5-10%). Look for at least 40% potency.
L-Glutathione must ONLY be included in the "REDUCED' form. In the 'Regular' form the molecular size is too big and will not pass through the intestinal walls into the blood stream.
Both L-Glutathione and SAMe are severely damaged/destroyed by any contact with stomach acid. So any tablet containing them needs to have an ENTERIC COATING. The multi nutrient health supplement I use is the only supplement in the market I've found which contains these ingredients and is enteric coated.
