A lifestyle that is health conscious, and nutritious will delay aging and save you money. I will be dishing out a sweet guide to five delicious foods that work wonders for your skin and for your taste buds.
Dark chocolate
Mhm, my favorite healthy skin food to snack on. High quality dark chocolate with simple ingredients,(yes, read the label) is high in antioxidants, and flavonoids. It will protect your skin from damage and give you youthful skin, but remember to eat in moderation.
Sweet Potatoes
Indulged yourself in this tasty and hearty sweet treat. They are loaded with beta-carotene (that’s the good stuff that turns into vitamin A). Vitamin A is crucial for maintaining healthy skin, promoting cell turnover and radiance. Let your skin savor the sweetness in the main dish.
Yogurt
Yogurt had to make the list for its diverse sweet uses and your guts new BFF. Probiotics live in yogurt promoting a clean and clear gut, for a clean and clear skin. Yes, the connection is that strong. You can add yogurt to anything or add anything to yogurt like honey to make it sweet.
Colorful Fruits
Berries, citrus fruits or watermelon and much much more are beyond rich with antioxidants (don’t let anyone fool you into thinking they are high in sugar, they are but your body needs that sugar and everything that comes with it). They are nature’s sweet skincare, and you can’t eat enough of them.
Nuts & Seeds
Crunch away for a skin loving boost. Nuts and seeds are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin E and zinc. They are essential for the structure and protection against aging. They contribute to skin elasticity and ward off pesky premature lines. So crunch away in moderation.
