Beauty Is Skin Deep!
Everyone wants great skin ! In today's world, supple skin,
a healthy glow and a blemish free complexion are a great
asset and diet plays a major role. Introducing a new class
of foods to protect and improve skin. Here are the six skin
care secrets that can rejuvenate and revitalize your
skin……the natural way.
WATER – THE MOST IMPORTANT SKIN NUTRIENT Water is a very
low-cost way to improve your skin quality, and the effect
is fast. Just one week after increasing your water intake
you can see fewer wrinkles and minor blemishes. Water has
two functions that lead to better looking skin. First, it
helps flush toxins out of your body which can show up as
blemishes on the skin. Second, it plumps up the skin so
wrinkles don't form or are less noticeable. Drink plenty of
water.
VITAMIN C – THE SUPERSKIN VITAMIN. Vitamin C rich foods
such as citrus fruits (oranges), strawberries, tomatoes and
cabbage, and this vitamin is critical to the formation of
collagen - a key element of the connective tissue that
keeps skin firm and prevents it from breaking. This leads
to more resilient skin. This is something simple you can
try at home - toss in a few sliced pieces of oranges, pears
or strawberries in a little lemon juice and sweetener for a
refreshing slush. Combine with some yoghurt in a blender
and you get the world's best smoothie!
VITAMIN B3 – NIACIN.- THE SKIN REJUVENATOR Meat, fish,
poultry, legumes and grains are rich in Niacin, an
essential nutrient for skin. Chicken in particular,
provides a complete array of amino acids to fuel the growth
of fresh new skin cells.
VITAMIN A FOR A+ SKIN TEXTURE
Papaya's and yellow-dark green vegetables such as carrots
provide a nice beauty boost because vitamin A is one of the
vitamins that most directly contribute to keeping skin's
texture youthful. You could say that a carrot a day -
loaded with fiber and beta carotene (precursor to vitamin
A), plays an important role in maintaining smooth, healthy
skin and keeps blemishes away! Try carrot juice, instead of
orange, at breakfast once in a while.
FIBER – SUPER SKIN IS ALWAYS STRESS FREE. Studies suggest
that oats and some cereals include fiber help to balance
blood sugar level and even control stress levels. And any
stressors can precipitate skin eruptions. Less stress helps
in improving skin tone. Choose oatmeal or oat-based cold
cereals for breakfast a few times a week, and wheat / oat
enriched breads and muffins. Here is a great tip -
Tomatoes are year round skin helpers, because they provide
all of the above mentioned nutrients in one easily
available source.
MORE FOODS FOR SUPER SKIN.
One cup of low-fat yogurt is enriched with an ample amount
of protein, zinc, folacin, B12 (important for healthy blood
and skin tone) and riboflavin, important for providing
energy to skin cells. A single serving of potatoes (6-8 oz)
provides an ample amount of vitamin C, B vitamins,
especially folic acid, iron, copper, niacin, and fiber.
Whole-grain breads, available at health food shops are rich
in fiber, zinc and B vitamins.
So now that you know all the facts, start eating healthy
today! Beauty doesn't lie in the hands of the beholder, it
lies in the hands of the smart eater !
