Causes and treatments for dark circles around children's lips

Some parents pay a lot of attention to their children's appearance, and they strictly control their children's bodies from diet to exercise. But even so, some unexpected situations cannot be avoided. For example, if a child is too weak, or due to other external factors, his lips may turn black. The following introduces some reasons for blackening. Parents can compare their children to see if they have the following characteristics.

1. Causes of black circles

1. Poor blood circulation in the body causes black spots around the lips

The dark circle around the lips indicates uneven skin color, which means that the child's qi and blood circulation is not good enough. You should pay more attention to sleep in your daily life. It is best to enter a deep sleep state between 11pm and 1am every day.

2. Poor digestive system causes dark spots around the lips

Dark lips may also be caused by a poor digestive system, so try not to eat all kinds of sweets and fried greasy foods. There are also relatively cold and raw foods. They will only make the child's body produce more moisture.

3. Excessive lip hair causes darkening around the lips

Girls have a lot of sweat hair on their lips because of the imbalance of estrogen androgen in their bodies. Taking medicines or foods containing sex hormones will promote the growth of lip hair. If this is the case, you can balance your endocrine system by properly supplementing with plant estrogens such as soy isoflavones.

2. Diet conditioning methods

1. Eat less foods rich in tyrosine

Because tyrosine is the basic substance of melanin. In other words, melanin is converted from tyrosine through the action of tyrosinase. If the intake of tyrosine is less, the basic substance for synthesizing melanin will also be less, and the skin will become whiter.

2. Eat more foods rich in vitamin C

Chemical experiments have shown that the series of reactions that form melanin are mostly oxidation reactions, but when vitamin C is added, the formation of melanin can be blocked. Therefore, eat more foods rich in vitamin C, such as sour jujube, fresh jujube, tomatoes, sea buckthorn, citrus, fresh green leafy vegetables, etc.

3. Pay attention to the intake of foods rich in vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant in the human body, especially a fat antioxidant, which can inhibit the peroxidation of unsaturated fatty acids and other unstable compounds. The lipofuscin in the human body is a peroxide of unsaturated fatty acids. Vitamin E inhibits their peroxidation, thereby effectively resisting the deposition of lipofuscin on the skin and keeping the skin white.
