Beauty really does comes from the inside-out, and i am not waxing
poetic either–i am talking facts: You are what you eat, and if you want
to look ageless, it begins with the food you put into your gut. Lucky
for us, food science has evolved spectacularly in the last decade so
with a tiny bit of care, we can now design meals that will help stop the
clock.
I rounded up 5 of the most powerful superfoods that’ll make people
wonder whether you’ve just unlocked the fountain of youth. Here’s how
to eat your way to younger-looking skin.
Turns out there’s truth to your momma’s wisdom about the importance
of eating your broccoli. Broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables,
like cabbage and kale, help slow down the aging process because of there
powerful detoxifying properties, also helping to prevent cancer.
2. EGGS
This superfood is not only a powerful source of protein, but eggs are
loaded with choline, a powerful B vitamin that is proven to reduce
inflammation in the brain (inflammation in the body is one of the causes
of overall frailty and accelerates the aging process).
3. BEETS
This superfood is packed with iron which helps distribute oxygen
through the blood (and oxygen is life). The iron dilates blood cells
which helps promote circulation, resulting in radiant, dewey,
vibrant-looking skin.
4. BLUEBERRIES
This tasty fruit is rich with vitamin C and other antioxidants that are
not only crucial to collagen reproduction, but also fight against free
radicals that can wreak havoc on your skin and cause premature aging.
5. TOMATOES
A super ingredient known as lycopene found in tomatoes will fight
off toxins in the body and help strengthen teeth and gums. Lycopene also
helps to slowdown the breakdown of collagen, ensuring firmness and
elasticity while preventing wrinkling.
