Healthy Diet

Everyone knows to stay healthy and have healthy skin, nails, teeth, hair etc you need your 5 potions of fruit and veg a day and your meat and dairy, the ‘well balanced diet’ etc, but here are a few more unusual ones you could try!

Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple Cider Vinegar is meant to contain enzymes that help get rid of dead skin cells, which will help the look of your skin, and helps the digestion of food. Supposedly it helps break down fat and has healing qualities but I think this is probably a fallacy!! How you’d get this into your diet on a regular basis poses a bit of a puzzle though!!

Carrots

Ever bought a skin product because it contains Retin A? It is meant to prevent premature ageing of the skin. Well carrots give the same effect.

Citrus Fruits

Produces collagen inside the body which helps your skin cells hold together. People try to add collagen to their skin but I don’t think it works as well as eating fruit and drinking juice.

Garlic

Another one to help with your wrinkles. Pretty much makes your breathe smell though, but that’s the cross you have to bare where beauty is concerned.

Wheat Germ

This is a good one if you are plagued with spots. Add a couple of spoonfuls into your breakfast in the morning. Sorted!
