Skin Repair

Nutrition is important for health. An unhealthy diet can damage your metabolism, cause weight gain, and even damage organs, such as your heart and liver. But what you eat also affects another organ - your skin.


As scientists learn more about diet and the body, it’s increasingly clear that what you eat can significantly affect the health and aging of your skin.

Here is a list of the best foods that help to keep your skin healthy:

  • Fatty fish and Avocados –
  • Walnuts and Sunflower seeds
  • Sweet Potatoes, Capsicums Broccoli and Tomatoes
  • Dark Chocolate, Green Tea and Red Grapes

These foods are rich in Omega 3 Oils, Vitamin E and Vitamin C, minerals such as Magnesium, Zinc and Selenium and antioxidant compounds. These improve the elasticity, hydration and texture of the skin and may protect against sun damage and wrinkles.

Supplements
Hair, skin, and nail supplements commonly contain antioxidants such as vitamins A, C, and E, or Coenzyme Q10, as well as biotin, a B-­complex vitamin. The minerals manganese and selenium are often found in supplements marketed for healthy hair, along with fatty acids such as fish oil and flaxseed oil

In recent years, collagen supplements have become popular. Collagen is the most abundant protein in your body. It is the major component of connective tissues that make up several body parts, including tendons, ligaments, skin, and muscles.

Collagen has many important functions, including providing your skin with structure and strengthening your bones. Consuming collagen may have a variety of health benefits, from relieving joint pain to improving skin health. It plays a role in strengthening skin, plus may benefit elasticity and hydration.

As you age, your body produces less collagen, leading to dry skin and the formation of wrinkles.

Studies have shown that supplements containing collagen may help slow the aging of your skin by reducing wrinkles and dryness.
