Healthy Eating Advice for Super Looking Skin

Some Interesting Products:

I want to give you some simple dietary advice for a healthier, younger-looking skin. Apart from avoiding widely-used harmful chemicals in toiletries, eating a healthy diet containing wholesome, bio-available organic foods, is an important strategy in helping to ensure that you have radiant healthy-looking skin.

Skin care lotions and creams are great, but by adding certain important foodstuffs to your diet, you’ll not only look younger but you will feel better too. Below I’ve listed eight common food items that you can incorporate into your diet all of which will help erase lines, keep your complexion looking fresh and glowing and help give you beautiful skin.

1 Egg Whites

Egg whites have long been known as immunity boosters. Egg whites are also a great source of zinc. Zinc is an essential mineral that keeps the skin young, firm and vital. If you’re zinc deficient, all the skin care applications in the world won’t help cover unhealthy-looking skin.

2 Pomegranate

A glass of natural, pure pomegranate juice is helpful and tasty too, but try to have some pomegranate seeds as well - not just the juice. Pomegranate has high levels of Vitamin C whilst the juice in pomegranate seeds contains both ellagic acid and punicalagins. Ellagic acid is a compound that fights damage from free radicals. Punicalagins are a super nutrient that helps the body to preserve collagen. Collagen is the connective tissue that makes your skin look younger, smoother and softer.

3 Olive Oil.

Try to have at least one tablespoon of olive oil a day in your diet (great on a nice green salad). Olive Oil contains healthy omega-3s, which improve your circulation, leaving skin healthy and supple.

4 Watermelon.

Eat as much as you like of this. Watermelon is rich in Vitamin C, potassium and lycopene which help to regulate the balance of water and nutrients in cells. Hydration is the secret to vibrant, healthy, youthful looking skin and this super food will help to unlock your inner beauty.

5 Blueberries.

Blueberries are one of the best, so called, superfoods. They contain more fibre and antioxidants than virtually any other foodstuff. Eating up to half a cup a day can give you protection from skin damaging free radicals that occur with over-exercising, emotional stress and too much sun exposure. Blueberries prevent cell-structure damage that can lead to fine lines, wrinkles and loss of skin firmness.

6 Green Tea.

Try and drink at least one or two cups a day. Not only is this great for your general diet and help in boosting your metabolism, it contains catechins (incidently, they are found in chocolate, too) - an effective compound for preventing premature ageing and damaging effects of sun damage. Green Tea is rich in antioxidants that fight off free radical damage and may reverse the effects of ageing.

7 Oily fish.

Try and eat up to six medium portions of salmon, sardines or mackerel per week. They naturally contain omega-3 fatty acids which strengthen skin-cell membranes, and in turn help to hydrate the skin.

8 Spinach & Kale.

Eat your greens daily! These two superfoods contain vital phyto-nutrients that help guard against damage from the sun. They are loaded with beta- carotene and lutein, shown to improve skin elasticity and firmness.
