Nutrition & Your Skin

Can you eat your way to smoother skin? We all hear the old wives tales about chocolate giving you spots and drinking lemon and water giving you clear skin, but how much truth is there in what we eat and drink effecting our skin, and which advice should we follow in order to have good healthy skin?

The American Journal of clinical nutrition has proven that you really can eat your way to beautiful skin.  Over 4,000 women aged between 40-74 were studied and those who ate more foods rich in vitamin C were found to be less likely to have wrinkles while higher intakes of essential fats were associated with less dryness and thinning.  The researchers say vitamin C’s anti-ageing effects come from its strong anti-oxidant powers that play a role in making healthy collagen; the protein which gives our skin elasticity.  Great foods for vitamin C are citrus fruits, like oranges and grapefruits, strawberries, red peppers, broccoli, papaya, guava and kiwi. 
Meanwhile you can find the essential fats so crucial to youthful skin in nuts, whole grains, pumpkin seeds and wheat germ.

Will eating badly really make you spotty? Does eating chips make your skin greasy? There is no scientific evidence that eating unhealthy food such as fired chips and chocolate will give you spots, but it is self evident that a poor diet leading to lack of vitamins and nutrients does not make for a healthy glowing skin!  We like to think a little of what you fancy will do no harm in moderation, but you can’t beat the 5 a day fruit and veg rule and plenty of filtered water as the evidence does suggest that it keeps us younger for longer!
