Products are white.
There are so-called white products, these are: noodles, pasta, rice, potatoes, sugar and white bread. These products are mostly simple carbohydrates. And simple carbohydrates are digested very quickly, which increases the level of insulin. When this level falls, you feel hunger, and you want to eat sweet.
But these same simple carbohydrates form the basis of a daily diet. Prefer simple carbohydrates a moderate amount of complex, such as whole wheat bread, pasta of their solid wheat varieties and brown rice. Foods containing complex carbohydrates take longer to digest and will not lead to a sharp rise in insulin.
Seafood.
The beauty of the skin depends on two very important fatty acids: Omega-3 and Omega-6. Virtually the only source of them is sea fish and seafood - these foods should make up your diet.
The advantage of these acids is that they are able to prevent and eliminate various inflammations on the skin (which leads to purification of the pores), to treat acne. Similarly, with a moderate use of these fats, the skin is hydrated from the inside and nutrients are supplied.
Olive oil.
Many young women hoping to acquire a slender figure refuse from fat, which leads to skin problems on the face. These women have dry, flaky skin on the face and body due to inadequate intake of fats. In the case of consuming fats less than 20 g., The skin is not capable of moisturizing itself, and the body does not absorb most vitally important vitamins. For example, vitamin A, which is used to prevent aging. And these important 20 grams are contained in 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Vitamins and minerals.
Some vitamins have properties that allow you to look younger and slow the aging process. For example, A and E. After all, these vitamins contain most creams from wrinkles. Giving the skin beauty and elasticity and slowing down the process of its thinning, they prevent early appearance of wrinkles. A large number of these vitamins are contained in the above-mentioned sea fish, nuts (almonds and walnuts). But there is one minus in nuts, they are very caloric. But you can eat a few pieces a day (raw) or a small handful.
Also, another danger to the skin, which is the cause of skin aging, is the formation of free radicals in it. They are formed under the influence of the sun and bad ecology. But there are antioxidants that can rid the skin of free radicals. One of the best antioxidants is vitamin C and selenium. A lot of vitamin C is found in fruits (citrus fruits) and vegetables green and yellow. Also, vitamin C is able to stimulate cell renewal and skin production of collagen. And collagen, in turn, makes the skin supple and elastic, which slows the appearance of wrinkles. Selenium is found in soy, onion, bran, nuts. In meat, eggs and fish - in a smaller amount.
Insufficient intake of iron leads to the fact that your lungs do not have enough oxygen. Obviously, it is harmful to the skin. Meat contains a lot of iron. But to get all the necessary substances for the skin, you should take vitamin and mineral complexes.
Moisturize the skin from the inside.
Drinking plenty of water will keep your skin fresh, healthy and clear. It is water, green tea and natural juices. In black tea, soda, coffee contains caffeine, and it spoils the complexion, and a diuretic, which removes liquid from the body.
