Numerous food and health evidence has hinted at using diets for healthy skin. But what should that diet include?
It's at these times that you remember that hard to forget old saying of 'you are what you eat' and few can argue that a prolonged, inadequate diet can lead to all sorts of health problems.
Just witness the dramatic rise in obesity levels.
Where skin health is concerned there is much evidence which supports the notion that you'll have more energy and younger looking skin if you consume more vegetables, fish and olive oil.
Consider wintertime and how many of us feel during the winter, when we lack the energy to do a lot of things and our skin is often the first to show signs, it feels dry, even when moisturized. This is a signal to try to balance acid and alkaline balance by increasing your intake of alkaline foods, and reducing sugary and white flour products.
Researchers have commented on how a diet of biscuits, soft drinks and ice cream coupled with processed meats and milk products, seems to give way to extensive skin wrinkling and premature aging.
When you are feeling run down the general nutritional advice is not to reach for sugar and carbs.
By the way, alkaline foods include dark leafy greens, carrots, cabbage, green beans, peppers and spinach. Even some foods you would imagine being acidic like lemons and grapefruit become alkaline once your body breaks them down.
Follow some of these pointers and you could get glowing skin, improved hydration and maybe even lose a few pounds.
