For the most part, looking your best starts with what you put in your body. Drinking enough water, taking the right supplements, and eating smart all can help you achieve younger looking skin. Specifically, changing to your diet can make a real difference in your appearance.

To make it easier to figure out what to eat to look your best, we spoke to Angela Caglia, celebrity facialist and anti-aging expert, about foods that can help you look younger. She explains, “Eat foods high in saturated fat, salt, or sugar, and your skin tends to make you look 10 years older. Conversely, eat a diet low in fat, sodium and sugar, with copious amounts of fruit and nuts, vegetables, and lean protein, and watch the compliments about your youthful appearance pour in.”

Eating more blueberries is a great way to give your skin a more youthful look.

 

Caglia explains the benefits of this powerhouse fruit: "Despite their diminutive size, pack a wallop of a punch when it comes to their concentration of antioxidant compounds, the literal shield that protects you against anti-aging free radicals."

Kale is another great food to incorporate into your regular diet to give your skin a youthful glow.

 

Caglia explains its health benefits: "It may not taste that great, but it's a dynamo for its power-packed cocktail of antioxidants to fight those free radicals. Mixed with fiber, potassium, vitamin C and vitamin B6, it’s a detox for your skin."

Salmon is another nutrient-rich ingredient that can help you look younger.

 

Caglia explains, "Salmon is loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, which help moisturize the skin and reduce inflammation and keep that dewy, youthful glow intact."

Caglia also loves almonds for their powerful effect on the appearance of your skin. She explains, "Almonds are rich in the antioxidant vitamin E, which may help protect cells from damaging effects of free radicals, caused by pollution, UV rays from the sun, and other factors."

 

Caglia continues, "They also contain zinc, which contributes to the integrity of healthy skin."
