FOOD FOR SKIN : EATING FOR BEAUTY


“Let food be thy medicine, and let thy medicine be food.” Hippocrates 

Our skin care is formulated with a high concentration of antioxidants, supplementing it by adopting a high antioxidant diet will slow down the aging process. The great news is that it will also help you maintain a healthy weight, protect your heart, elevate your well being and affect your mood. 

In other words eating to beautify your skin will help your overall health.

Inflammation and Oxidation are the two processes that will make you age faster and are also linked to many diseases. Inflammation is your body’s defense mechanism to the presence of a dangerous substance in your body.

This immune system response is life saving but also has terrible side effects on your skin, by creating free radicals (also called Oxidation) that accelerate the aging process.

Free Radical trigger in your diet:
  • Processed food
  • Alcohol
  • Artificial Chemicals
  • Refined flour
  • Sugar
  • Saturated fats

ANTIOXIDANT : THE ANTIDOTE TO FREE RADICALS

Plants are the only real source of antioxidant, except for Fish which is high in vitamin E. Plant foods also have a very low amount of calories compared to Animal food, so if you want to maintain a healthy weight, plant-based food is also a better choice.
Getting your antioxidant from unprocessed organic food is the most efficient way since they are in their natural state therefore truly bio-available and more easily absorbed by your body, than in supplements.

CHAMPION ANTIOXIDANT: Vitamin C, Beta Carotene, Vitamin E

To maximize the healing power of these potent foods, try when possible to eat them raw or lightly steamed.
