Healthy Foods for Healthy Skin

Emme's Beauty & Makeup Tips

Besides good foods to put on your skin, there are also foods you can eat for your skin. Here are three major dietary skin-care requirements for moms:

  • Antioxidants. Antioxidants (Vitamins A, C and E) neutralize the damage we do to our skin each day and help prevent wrinkles. Found in: fruits, especially berries, and vegetables.

  • Omega-3's. Protects your skin from sun damage and aging. Found in: fatty fish like sardines, salmon, tilapia and cod, also in flaxseed oil.

  • Vitamin D. Strengthens your bones, muscles, nails, and eyes. Found in: leafy greens, milk, and fortified eggs, which are safer than the sun where vitamin D can also be found.
So yes, when it comes to your skin, you are what you eat. Treat your body as a temple, and your skin will shine like gold.
