First thing you should do to have a glittering skin is to make your skin cells beautiful. You cannot get what you want if your skin cannot get enough nutrients. Instead of covering and moistening your face with cosmetics, you can begin a life with a beautiful face by filling your shopping basket with these foods.

ALMOND

I have great news for you! Almond is not a dried nut, but a seed. It is also a source of Vitamin E that protects you from sunlight. A research has been made on some volunteers: they had 14 milligrams of vitamin by eating just 20 almonds, and they were affected from the ultraviolet lights less than the ones that didn’t get any vitamin. According to Jeffrey DOVER, a professor from Yale University, Vitamin E protects the skin cells from ultraviolet lights and from the effects of free radicals that cause cell breakdowns.
An Alternative: Two tablespoons of peanut-butter; half bowl of broccoli.

CARROT

You can define carrot as a magic wand that is beneficial for eyes and that is a cure for zits. It is also a source of Vitamin A. Dermatologist Howard MURAD indicates that carrot can hinder overproduce of some kinds of cells under sub-layers of skin, and this means dead cells and skin-fat combine to cover the pores. Another reason to eat carrot is that Vitamin A reduces the development of cancerous cells. That’s why you can start eating 16 small carrots everyday.
An Alternative: A glass of milk; a slice of cheddar cheese.

BITTER CHOCOLATE

This is a cure and we all need it. Bitter chocolate includes the antioxidant flavonol and this removes some skin problems and wearings that arise because of sunlight. The researches conducted by Journal of Nutrition have proved that a group of women, who get 326 milligram cocoa with flavonol, have a better skin texture than the ones that don’t get any cocoa. Moreover, the same women are affected from ultraviolet lights less then the other ones. All you have to do is eating some chocolate which includes flavonol.
An Alternative: Berry, cranberry, cherry and raspberry.

FLAXSEED

This smart seed includes omega-3 fatty acid and this removes stains and wrinkles around our face. The British Journal of Nutrition has stated that the people who had 2 grams of omega-3 had fewer rashes and allergies than the ones who didn’t get any omega-3. These lucky ones also had better skins. Put some on your oatmeal in the mornings and some more on your vegetables in the evenings.
An Alternative: Flaxseed oil (put one tablespoon on your sautéed vegetables), salmon fish (110 gr.), walnut (28 gr.)

GREEN TEA

How does green tea affect your metabolism? Drink hot, and then it discharges an antioxidant called catechine, and besides removing some infections catechine also prevents cancer. The hotter the tea is the more catechine it has, so you had better drink it hot. According to researches, drinking 2-6 glasses of tea not only prevents skin cancer, but also removes sunspots.
An Alternative: White tea.

SAFFLOWER OIL

Safflower oil has omega-6 fatty acid, and this acid is the key for moistening dry and allergic skin. This helps cell walls be flexible and this means enough saturation of water into the skin. Scientists also suggest that this oil can even protect the skin with eczema.
An Alternative: Soybean or corn oil.

SPINACH

You can get armour against cancer by eating this green vegetable. International Journal of Cancer suggested that consumers of green-leafy vegetables are in danger of skin cancer 50% less than the ones that don’t consume any. This makes us think that folic acid protects cells and repairs DNA damages. It supports the refreshment of cells. Drayer indicates that this prevents the development of cancerous cells. While making Popeye more powerful, spinach water is also absorbed by cell membrane and this makes our skin wrinkle less, be more flexible.
An Alternative: Black cabbage.

SWEET POTATOES

It is not only sweet but only a source of Vitamin C that removes wrinkles on face. Dover suggests that it is the heart of collagen production and adds: “The more collagen you get, the less facial wrinkles you have.” Furthermore studies of The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition indicated that the people that consumed 4 milligram of Vitamin C a day for 6 years reduced the amount of having wrinkles by 11%.
An Alternative: Carrot, orange juice (170 gr.)

TOMATO

It certainly makes salads beautiful, but if you eat it cooked this small red food also protects your skin perfectly. Here is the answer for the question “why”: lycopene, the phytochemical that makes tomato red, protects your skin from aging caused by ultraviolet lights. If you cook vegetables they protect you from ultraviolet lights more. Half a cup of hot tomato or paste sauce has 15 milligram lycopene. In conclusion, getting this daily dose doesn’t let you become red, like a tomato.
An Alternative: Watermelon (1/16 of a whole)

TUNA FISH

Put a miracle into your favourite sandwich. If you ask “how”, the answer is selenium. This is a food that supplies elastin, and elastin is a protein that makes your skin smoother and more beautiful. Ultraviolet lights make free radicals appear and these free radicals harm your cells. However, this antioxidant prevents this. Isn’t this excellent? You just consume 85 grams and do nothing; it does all for you…
An Alternative: Brazil nut (12 pieces), turkey (a bowl of)

THE CONCLUSION IS AN EXCELLENT SKIN.
