The most effective answer to staying beautiful can be found in the grocery store-in fruits, vegetables and other healthy foods that are perfect to add that glow to your face; and also keep you slim and supple. Go on, add all these to your weekly diet.
LEMON
Begin your day with some lemon juice to clean out the toxins and keep the skin blemish- and acne-free. This will also give a big boost of vitamin C to make your skin baby soft. Lemons improve bowel movement too, which keeps constipation at bay, a common cause of pimples, spots and super-oily skin.
Eating Cue: Drink lemon juice with warm water and 1 tsp honey every morning
Orange
If you want to keep those wrinkles away, then eat oranges. The secret lies in its high vitamin C content (one orange meets your daily requirements), which is an effective anti- ageing antioxidant.
Eating Cue: Just peel and eat.
Yoghurt
Yoghurt helps in the production of collagen, which reduces signs of ageing and also delivers probiotics that help prevent acne.
Eating Cue: Have a cup of yoghurt with your lunch every day. Or snack on it in the evening paired with a fruit
Wheatgrass
Wheatgrass works as a fabulous tonic for your skin. It boosts the immune system and detoxifies the blood, which reflects as healthy and glowing skin.
Eating Cue: Add to your salads and drink its freshly prepared juice
Coconut Water
Coconut water is loaded with potassium (delivers four times more than a banana), antioxidants, and cytokines, which boost circulation, help clear the pores and make the skin lustrous. No wonder in Hawaii they call it ‘Noelani-dew from the heavens.
Eating Cue: Drink coconut water every evening.
Amla
Amla helps to detoxify the liver and aid digestion. It is also a good source of vitamin C and other minerals that are good for the skin.
