You can opt from nicotine and avoiding excessive sunlight, but the secret to a healthy skin in the food that you eat.





"Wrong choice becomes the cause of inflammation even at the cellular level, says dermatologist Nicholas Perricone, author of Forever young (Forever young), in which he talks about how proper nutrition can help you to look younger than their years. And although you can't see it, the inflammatory processes lead directly to wrinkles, sagging and premature aging of the skin".

Here's what you need to eat to prevent this:

Sweet potatoes (yams)

Beta-carotene, which makes these tubers orange, allows to maintain the pH balance of your skin balanced, it helps to fight dryness, promotes cell renewal, resulting in the skin becomes more smooth.





Wild salmon

The pigment that makes the fish pink, astaxanthin, is a powerful enemy of free radicals — unstable molecules that destroy cell membranes and DNA and cause skin aging.

The study showed that eating one serving every five days can prevent actinic keratoses – ugly rough appearance of the spots are the precancerous condition.

Tomatoes

The red pigment of the fruit, lycopene is a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from the harmful effects of the sun like sunscreen, but from the inside. To better absorb lycopene, eat tomatoes with olive oil.

By the way, in itself is olive oil good for your hair and face if you apply it topically.

Citrus

Vitamin C is essential for building collagen — an important component of young skin, which begins to break down after twenty years. Citrus fruits also contain bioflavonoids, which protect skin from UV rays and help prevent cell death.

Leafy greens

Spinach, Kale and other greens contain lutein, which protects skin from inflammation caused by the sun, and the appearance of wrinkles.

Stay away from white products

Need more reason to exclude from the diet of white bread, pasta, rice and other products of refined grains? They quickly disintegrate into the final product: sugar.

Once in the blood, sugar connects to a protein and forms the end product of glycation, which is the reason that the collagen becomes inflamed and stiff, leading to wrinkles.

Why food is always better than pills

"The products there are so many components that have not yet been studied. Is very likely that these unknowns work synergistically, bringing greater benefit than that which you can get by taking supplements." — Nicholas Perricone, a dermatologist.

Alcohol has its benefits
