BEST FOODS FOR A HEALTHY-LOOKING CLEAR SKIN

 A flawless complexion is what many people dream of having; however, to some, this has turned to a nightmare after their efforts of buying expensive creams in a bid to achieve a clear skin have gone to the ruins.

Glowing and Clear skin is not merely applying different creams on your skin, but also checking what you eat. Eating a clear skin diet is the most effective way for you to get glowing, flawless skin.

Below we have highlighted the best foods that have proven to be the best when it comes to acquiring a healthy and clear skin.

Leafy Greens

Your skin needs vitamins A, which are suitable for preventing dry and flaky skin, vitamin C, which shields your skin against sun damage, vitamin E, which fights against inflammation, and vitamin K, which increases blood circulation and coagulation.

You can get all this from leafy greens like kales, spinach, collard greens, and also in broccoli and Brussels sprouts.

Spinach is also full of zinc, which helps prevent acne breakouts, and zeaxanthin is an antioxidant that helps even the skin tone. So if you will let your plate have plenty of these vegetables, you will realize your dream of having a clear skin.

Beetroot

It might be 'stainy', and it might taste nasty at times, but the skin-clearing elements it contains makes it one of the best foods for clear skin. Beetroot is rich in vitamin A, potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, and vitamin E, which are essential for epidermal health and healing.

Collectively, these nutrients help the skin eliminate harmful elements and lowers cholesterol levels in the body.

You can blend beetroot in juice with other fruits, or you can add it to your salad.

 Water

Okay, don't give that look because I know water is food and one of the fundamental elements for achieving a glowing and flawless skin.

Water helps your body flush out toxins replenishing your cell, and maintaining the skin moisture. So make sure you drink eight glasses of water to have clear skin.

Fish

Fish is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, unique in the development of healthy skin.

These fatty acids reduce the production of inflammatory substances hence decreasing clogging in pores, preventing acne and the formation of wrinkles, and also protecting the skin against sun damage.

Snapper has an added advantage as it also contains the mineral selenium, which can reduce the risk of sunburn and promotes an even skin tone.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes also fall under the best foods that will see you have clear skin. It is rich in vitamin C, which helps the skin to be firm and taut by assisting in collagen production.

It also contains a red pigment called lycopene, which stimulated skin circulation.

CONCLUSION

Now that you know the best foods that help make your skin clear, it's now time to try them out.

But remember, changes will not be seen instantly, patience, and doing the right thing will give you positive results within two to three weeks.

To prevent your skin from getting damaged again, let this clear skin diet be a long term practice.
