4 BEST FOODS FOR A HEALTHY SKIN

  • Nov 14, 2020

What you have on your plate dictates how healthy your skin is, how you look etc. Sure there are some other factors like genetics, lifestyle, and environment that play a part, but the food you take in is also major factor in deciding whether you have a clear, youthful-looking complexion.

Here are some best foods to keep your skin healthy and glowing. 

Oysters are your skin’s best friend. They are loaded with zinc which is known for preventing many skin ailments such as acne, scalp conditions, boils, ulcers, and diaper rashes. 

Zinc is a mineral with big ‘’beauty’’ benefits because it renews and repairs the skin. It also helps to create collagen, which provides structural support in the skin. It helps in enhancing immunity as well. 

Tomatoes have an antioxidant called lycopene which helps to protect your skin from UV damage from sunburn. Blueberries are like green tea and red wine, extremely rich in antioxidants, which target the free radicals that are destroying the skin cells. Sweet Potatoes can keep your skin clear, smooth, and young-looking. 

Orange-fleshed sweet potatoes are rich in beta-carotene, an antioxidant that converts to vitamin A in your body, which is in charge of producing new skin cells and shedding old ones. Strawberries are one of the world’s healthiest foods. 

Strawberries are rich in nutrients that our skin loves to dine on. With a high content of alpha-hydroxyl acids, strawberries help slough off dead skin cells, increasing natural skin renewal by revealing the new youthful skin underneath. Strawberries also contain ellagic acid, which helps protect the skin from UV rays.

The food you take in is also a major factor in deciding whether you have a clear, youthful-looking complexion.
