Eat Your Way to Being Beautiful & Healthy!

Foods that you can eat to get better skin and more!

Taking care of your skin is from the outside in, as well as the inside out,” says Dr. Joely Kaufman, a dermatologist who participates in aging research and is an assistant professor at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. “A good skin care regimen involves both topical and dietary regimens.” The most obvious sign of the beauty foods movement has started appearing on store shelves. Here’s What to look for!

OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS

Helps: Keeps Toxins out and Nutrients in and protects against sun damage

What to Eat: wild salmon, walnuts, flax, canola oil, soybeans and sardines

Cranberries, black and green teas, even raisins

Helps: stop bacteria from clinging to the teeth, blocking the formation of damaging plaque deposits

Vitamin A

Helps: promote Healthy Hair

What to Eat: Spinach, broccoli and Swiss chard  

 
*Keep in Mind, Try to use WHOLE FOODS and NOT SUPPLEMENTS*
If you rely on supplements as part of your healthy beauty regimen, think again. Recent research suggests it’s better to get your nutrients from whole foods, not pills. In an academic review published in Nutrition Reviews last year, University of Minnisota public health professor David Jacobs concluded we derive more benefits from eating whole foods rather than isolating nutrients for supplements or fortifying foods with them (vitamin C or calcium added to orange juice).

It’s the synergy between vitamins and nutrients in naturally occurring food that creates the optimal benefits, Jacobs believes.

Jacobs isn’t against supplements; he believes they’re beneficial for people with deficiencies and other medical needs. But most people should get their nutrients from food, he said. “The totality of the diet is what’s important. What we’re eating — plant or animal — previously was a living organism and the closer it is to that form, the better.”
