Tips to Nourish Your Skin Naturally

 

As the time elapses, it keeps pulling out nourishment from the skin, making it look dull and tired slowly. This dullness occurs due to the formation of unstable molecules, known as free radicals, when your skin is exposed to elements like sun, wind, temperature, stress, and pollution during the day. These react with the skin to diminish skin proteins (collagen) and thus weaken the skin substrate to cause a slow & continuous ageing, which is not easy to realize till the results start showing in the form of sagginess and wrinkles. So, how do we stay away from this? Is it possible to prevent it? The answer is in a regular treat of nourishment for your skin that is rich in antioxidants.

Great Diet Mean Great Skin:

The skin is the external reflection of your internal health. Glowing, clear, moist skin is a sign of good diet, whereas pale, dry, oily or scaly skin may result when diet is not up to the standard. Luckily, the eating habit that works best for being healthy also helps to maintain the source of our youthful skin.

Natural Tonic for Your Skin:

Every nutrient has a role in sustaining healthy skin. Vitamin C helps build collagen, a strongly fibrous protein between the connective tissues in our body. Inadequate of this vitamin can cause loss of elasticity & skin strength, bruising, and poor healing of scrapes & cuts. Just a daily intake of a bowl of strawberries or a glass of orange juice gives the vitamin C you need. Vitamin D in milk may help in reducing the symptoms of psoriasis. A good healthy skin also needs the vitamin B, found in milk, wheat germ, and whole grains that helps to fasten wound healing and prevent dry, oily, or flaky skin. Water maintains the skin moist and regulates the function of the oil glands. Zinc in legumes, seafood, and meat assists in the healing of scrapes & cuts. Vitamin A in liver, egg yolks, and green vegetables & fruits, maintains epithelial tissues (membranous tissue covering internal organs and other internal surfaces of the body) such as skin, helps to prevent premature wrinkling, and sandpaper-like skin. The list of nutrients that supports the skin is almost endless.
