Estate Planning & Elder Care Firm of Michigan - October 2024

Sudoku

People have employed lasers, chemical peels, injections, and facelifts in the war against aging skin. While these more extreme measures can be temporarily effective, they can be hard on the wallet and much more cumbersome than natural remedies. Another tool in our arsenal against the effects of aging is our diet. Since our skin ages more like milk than wine, it only makes sense that we eat more fruit (as well as herbs and vegetables). Here are four skin care superfoods that can boost skin health! Blueberries One key ingredient to healthy skin is antioxidants, which help protect skin cells from aging and can even help minimize wrinkles. Fortunately, blueberries are full of antioxidants, such as anthocyanins and flavonoids. They also contain a healthy amount of vitamin C, which has been proven to improve skin firmness. Dark Chocolate Who knew delicious desserts could contribute to healthier skin? Unlike milk chocolate, dark chocolate contains antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that help improve the texture and radiance of your skin. I guess it’s time to give in to the dark side! Kale It won’t kill you to eat kale. In fact, kale is one of the most nutritious foods out there! Best of all, it is full of antioxidants and vitamins to make your body’s biggest organ (your skin) look new again! If you have an aversion to eating greens, you should know that kale also comes in purple varieties. Thyme Everyone has heard of herbal remedies, and one herb in particular has some proven benefits for rejuvenating skin. According to research published in the scientific journal Nutrients, thyme is full of antioxidants, minerals, and vitamins that can help contribute to healthier, smoother skin.
