How to Feed Your Skin Right Many people underestimate the benefits of healthy living, healthy eating, and proper exercise. Taking proper care of your body by combining the right foods with the right amount of positive activities in your life not only does wonders for your body - but for your skin as well. The overall health of your skin has been shown to be closely linked to your diet, level of activity, personal hygiene, environmental conditions and even sleeping habits. The following are some habits and tips for great looking skin. Proper Dietary Choices The saying goes "you are what you eat". This could not be truer when it comes to taking care of your skin. Dietary choices will have an effect not only on your overall health but your skin in particular. The skin is often the first indicator of good or poor eating habits. Choosing juice over coffee in the morning for example can help your skin since the latter dehydrates your body. Feed Your Skin Why are some foods better for the health of your skin? The answer is simple. They contain nutrients that are great for your skin. Here are a few: Fish contains natural oils that can help nourish your body and skin. Vitamin A is essential for the formation of healthy skin. Vegetables such carrots, sweet potatoes, broccoli, spinach, green peppers are a source of Vitamin A. Vitamin E helps promote great skin. Vitamin E can be found in grains and vegetable oils, as well as many nuts such as hazelnuts and almonds. Give Your Skin A Long Drink How do you do that, you ask? Simple. Make the drinking of water a daily habit. It doesn't mean that you should strap a water cooler to your back. It means that drinking 5 to 8 glasses a day will help maintain the skin's elasticity and suppleness. Can't fit them in? How about a glass in the morning, two at lunch, one in the evening and another before bed. You will be moisturizing from the inside out and your skin will thank you for it. Courtesy News Canada
