1 . Red bell peppers
Red bell peppers are a tasty vegetable
that can be enjoyed either cooked or
raw. One red bell pepper contains more
than 100% of your daily vitamin C
needs . It also contains significant
amounts of dietary fiber and vitamin
B 6 . Moreover, it is rich in carotenoids
that can help prevent wrinkles and
increase blood circulation to your skin ,
helping it look more youthful . Due to
their carotenoids , red bell peppers are
also great to fight acne .
A red bell pepper is a perfect, low
calorie snack that contains about 30
calories and has a really satisfying
crunchy bite . Keep slices of red bell
peppers in the fridge, so you will always
have something healthy and tasty to
reach for when you are having a snack
attack . The fiber that a bell pepper
contains will help you to feel full longer
with very little calories . Plus , you will
have a flawless skin !
2.DARK CHOCOLATE
This is one of my favorite foods to eat every
day for perfect skin! Dark chocolate is rich in
antioxidants, fatty acids and flavanols that
promote glowing skin. The antioxidants in dark
chocolate will help reduce roughness in your
skin and protect it against sun damage.
Moreover, cocoa relaxes arteries, increasing
blood circulation that leads to healthier skin.
I usually buy cocoa powder or raw cacao for
less fat. And if you like dark chocolate, eat
your ounce of dark chocolate every day and
make sure you choose at least 80% cacao
content in order to avoid milk and added
sugars found in a traditional chocolate bar
3 . Salmon
Salmon is an excellent food to fight
stress , anxiety, and depression. Salmon
also provides most of your daily vitamin
D needs. And as you may already know,
Vitamin D is responsible for keeping
your heart, bones , colon and brain
healthy. It also helps prevent colon
cancer , anxiety, depression, heart
disease and bone disease.
Salmon is also rich in omega -3 fatty
acids that are excellent for fighting
inflammation , wrinkles and acne . Its
high omega -3 content also helps hydrate
your skin from the inside out .
Moreover , eating salmon keeps your
scalp hydrated and promotes strong,
healthy hair.
4.Coconut oil
Coconut oil is one of the richest
sources of saturated fat with about 90
percent of calories as saturated fat . It
contains lauric acid , a powerful
antibacterial and antiviral agent that
keeps away viruses, infections ,
inflammation and acne . Coconut oil is
also rich in essential fatty acids and
Vitamin E , which are perfect for keeping
your skin moist, soft, and wrinkle-free .
I use coconut oil as a body cream and
consume 1 tbsp. of raw coconut oil
every day. Coconut oil is especially good
for your thyroid. Plus, there’s
considerable evidence that this oil can
help lose weight . So many health
benefits , don’t you think ?
5 . Green tea
Well , so I know green tea is actually a
beverage, but tea leaves come from a
plant ! Even though I love black tea, I
drink green tea every day because I
know that it is a great source of
antioxidants and a unique amino acid,
L -theanine that helps relax your body
and lower stress .
When the tea is hot , the bionic brew
releases catechins , a kind of antioxidant
with proven anti-cancer and anti-
inflammatory properties . Green tea may
also reduce your risk of developing high
blood pressure . Drink 3 or more cups of
tea every day for better results
6 . Spinach
Spinach is a healthy and nutrient- rich
food you should certainly include in
your everyday diet. You may hate
spinach , but it is a wonderful source of
iron , folate , chlorophyll, Vitamin E,
magnesium , Vitamin A , fiber , plant
protein, and Vitamin C. Due to their
antioxidant abilities , Vitamins C , E , and
A are especially great for your skin .
Spinach contains antioxidants that fight
against all types of skin problems . Add it
to your everyday diet and see what
happens . By eating spinach, you’re just
cleaning your skin from the inside out !
7 . Seeds
Chia seeds , hemp seeds, sunflower
seeds , pumpkin seeds , and flax seeds
are all great for your skin. Pumpkin
seeds and sunflower seeds are both rich
in selenium, Vitamin E , magnesium and
protein. Selenium and protein keep all
wrinkles away , Vitamin E enhances
moisture in your skin and magnesium
lowers your stress levels. The healthy
Omega 3 fatty acids in flax, chia and
hemp seeds are perfect for fighting
wrinkles and acne . Plus , these seeds are
rich in protein .
Just sprinkle seeds right on top of your
salad or oatmeal and enjoy the great
taste as well as perfect skin. I like to add
seeds to a fruit yogurt , I think it tastes
even better . I also add raw pumpkin
seeds in my oh -so delicious smoothies .
And what are your favorite seeds? How
do you eat them ?
8 . Celery
Another food to eat daily for perfect
skin is celery . Many of us underestimate
this veggie, but celery contains Vitamin
K that keeps the blood circulation
healthy and helps to reduce high blood
pressure . This can reduce your stress
level , and as you know stress can cause
bad skin, migraines and even cancer .
Celery also contains natural sodium,
potassium and water, and can help to
prevent dehydration . I hope you know
that dehydrated skin means dryness,
flaking , wrinkles , and even breakouts .
Make sure you consume celery every day
or at least every other day. If you are
counting calories, don’t worry , celery is
very low in calories !
9 . Papaya
Papaya is a wonderful fruit which has a
rich history and numerous nutritional
benefits . It is very low in calories ( only
39 calories per 100 g !) and also
contains no cholesterol . So if you are
trying to lose weight , consider eating
papaya every day to maximize its health
benefits .
A great beauty food , papaya is low in
fructose and is excellent for digestion!
The antioxidant nutrients found in it ,
including Vitamins C and E and beta-
carotene, are great at reducing
inflammation and acne . Moreover ,
Vitamin C may also protect your skin
against sun damage.
10 . Carrots
Carrots are good not only for your eyes ,
but also for your skin. They are
especially good for clearing up
breakouts . Carrots are rich in vitamin A
and they help prevent the
overproduction of cells in the outer
layer of the skin . That’s where excess
sebum combines with dead cells and
clogs pores.
Another great reason to snack on some
carrots is because Vitamin A reduces the
development of skin-cancer cells. So
make sure you nibble on a half- cup of
baby carrots every day for perfect skin.
I love carrots and I think they make a
great snack.
You don’t have to eat all these foods
every day, but even some of them would
be great ! Be sure to avoid junk foods,
too much sugar, trans fats and refined
carbs for the best skin possible. Which
of these foods do you eat every day?
