Preventing stretch marks naturally

Victoria Greaves, nutritionist, on preventing stretch marks naturally

Zinc and vitamin C supplements can help prevent stretch marks. This is because they're essential in the development of collagen, a component of connective tissue. If you're deficient in either of these, you're more likely to get stretch marks. Try 500mg of vitamin C ? choose one with bio-flavanoids - twice a day, and 15mg of zinc daily.
