I’m not a doctor or health care professional, but I have had some experience with getting healthier skin. The first step to healthier, better-looking skin is re-assessing your diet. What we eat has a huge impact on the health and appearance of our skin, which is your body’s biggest organ and needs healthy food!
While many people have certain foods that cause acne flare-ups or a bad complexion, these are very individual and it can take some time to figure out if any foods have an affect on your skin. Healthy-skin foods are rich in antioxidants, healthy fats and lean proteins. Make sure to eat a lot of vegetables and fruits, which hydrate your skin.
With that in mind, here are various lists on the healthiest foods for your skin. From the Mayo Clinic: Carrots, apricots and other yellow and orange fruits and vegetables Blueberries Spinach and other green leafy vegetables Tomatoes Beans, peas and lentils Fish, especially salmon Nuts From iVillage: • Fish contains oils that will help nourish your skin. This diet includes fish options at lunch and dinner to add luster and softness to your complexion.
€¢ Ground flaxseeds are an excellent source of omega-three fatty acids, which promote good skin health. This meal plan adds flaxseed to your breakfast cereal for a healthy start to your day. €¢ Vitamin A is essential for healthy skin.
This diet includes plenty of dark orange (carrots, sweet potatoes, winter squash) and dark green (broccoli, spinach, kale) vegetables -- all of which are high in vitamin A. €¢ Vitamin E helps promote great skin, which is why this diet includes nuts such as hazelnuts and almonds -- which are high in vitamin E -- as snacks. Here is a sample menu from iVillage for a skin-healthy diet: “BREAKFAST

For zits, try using Burt’s Bee’s Blemish Stick. It can take some time to find the right products for your skin. If you still have trouble after a few months, it might be a good idea to consults a dermatologist.

A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
