Our skin is an organ, and just like any other organ within the body, it requires special nutrients to maintain its optimal health. Continue reading see which 8 foods to eat for beautiful, glowing skin.
1. Salmon
Wild caught salmon is rich in vitamin D, selenium, omega 3s, and B vitamins. These nutrients help your skin repair itself, retain moisture, and boost collagen production.
2. Oysters
Oysters are an excellent source of zinc, copper, selenium, B12, and collagen. Zinc is often used in the treatment of acne and is most bioavailable in an animal source like oysters, especially when balanced with copper.
3. Eggs
Eggs are rich in vitamins A, Bs, D, K, selenium, and omega 3s. Eggs also contain lutein and zeaxanthin, which help protect against UV damage. Just be sure to consume high quality, pasture raised eggs when possible.
4. Liver
Liver is nature's multivitamin. It is especially high in vitamin A, Bs, choline, zinc, and copper. If you want clear, glowing skin, liver is the ultimate skin-loving superfood!
5. Blueberries
Blueberries are full of antioxidants, vitamins K and C, manganese, and can also help to reduce acne. Their antioxidant profile promotes collagen production and wound healing, and protects against environmental damage.
6. Avocados
Avocados are an excellent healthy source of fats, and they are rich in vitamins C and E. Avocados can help reduce wrinkles, sun damage, and acne while boosting collagen.
7. Olive Oil
Extra virgin olive oil is another great source of healthy fats rich in powerful antioxidants and vitamins E and K. These antioxidants are very bioavailable and fight inflammation within the body that can lead to issues like acne.
8. Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes are rich in vitamins A, C, B6 and manganese. Vitamin A is retinol, which is great for cell production and growth. Be sure to pair sweet potatoes with a fat to ensure the body absorbs the vitamins properly.
