Proper nutrition will help maintain the beauty and youth of your skin. This was stated by cosmetologist, dermatologist Kristina Malkina, the Izvestia newspaper writes.
The doctor noted that food should be varied. “The wider the diet, the more beneficial substances that prevent cell aging enter the body,” Malkina explained. According to her, the daily diet should always contain healthy fats, vitamins, macro- and microelements, as well as proteins and carbohydrates.
To maintain youthful skin, she advised adding green vegetables and fruits to your diet – spinach, broccoli, kiwi, avocado, and berries rich in antioxidants. These products contain vitamins C and E, which improve blood circulation and promote collagen production. They also help fight free radicals that cause skin aging.
In addition, you should lean on fish – salmon, tuna, mackerel and sardines are sources of omega-3 fatty acids, which fight inflammation, stimulate cell renewal, and maintain skin moisture levels. Almonds, walnuts, flax and chia seeds are also very good for the skin, as well as beans, lentils and chickpeas, which contain large amounts of protein and antioxidants that promote skin rejuvenation.
Finally, whole grains – oatmeal, buckwheat, brown rice – help remove toxins from the body and maintain healthy skin. It is also important to drink more clean drinking water, which helps keep the skin hydrated and young, the doctor noted.
