Foods That Promote Beautiful Skin


Many women and even some metro men often stop me in the street and comment on how youthful my skin looks and I just... WAKE UP! OK so that never really happens. So what can we do to improve the health of our most obvious feature.


Our skin is the largest and most clearly seen organ in the body which also reflects our health status of what is happening within. 


Applying external skin products can help improve how our skin looks and feels but we can also treat our skin to the best beauty therapy from the inside with great nutrition and some key lifestyle tips. 


It won't be instant but will be sustainable for months and years and even better, all of your internal unseen organs will benefit & love you more. 


Lets start with what to eat and do less of and get into the good stuff at the end. 

Eat & Do Less:
  • Meat, especially sausages - no need to become a vego, just cut down a comfortable amount
  • Omega 6 fatty acids - Margarine & Sunflower oil
  • Poor nutritional foods in general
  • Smoking
  • Direct Sunlight - mild amounts of sunlight are essential but hours in the hottest part of the day without coverage will definitely damage your dermal skin layers over time
Eat & Drink More:
  • Carrots 
  • Tomatoes
  • Dark Berries - blue, black, mul
  • Elderberry Juice (who's ever heard of that?)
  • Sourberries (huh?) - for Vitamin C
  • yoghurt (natural)
  • Greens - Spinach, broccolli, rucola, cucumbers
  • Green Tea
  • Fibre - Wholegrains 
  • Nuts and seeds
  • Omega 3's - Walnut oil & Grapeseed Oil
  • High protein foods - fish, eggs
  • Juices, fresh citrus and combinations
  • Water - up to 2 litres a day
Notice the emphasis on fresh vegetables & fruit? Pick your best 3 foods from the list and let's start glowing!
