Is there anyone who doesn’t want to look younger? Whether you’re fighting wrinkles and dark spots or simply nostalgic for the bright, energized complexion of your early twenties, there’s nothing wrong with working to rejuvenate your skin. For most of us, this entails a rigorous beauty regimen of hydrating cleansers, brightening serums and powerful face creams, with regular mask treatments used weekly. But even the most intense skincare routine can use a boost. You can easily strengthen your beauty game by simply introducing a few anti-aging foods into your diet. Here’s what to try:
Avocado
With a high level of anti-inflammatory properties and fatty acids, avocados are a powerhouse of anti-aging benefits. They can promote smooth and supple skin and deliver essential nutrients such as vitamin K, potassium and B vitamins. Plus, they can help you shed dead skin cells to leave your complexion soft and radiant.
Blueberries
Blueberries are one of the most powerful anti-aging foods because they contain an antioxidant called anthocyanin, which helps to protect against damage from sun and pollutants. This allows your skin to retain more collagen and maintain a stronger barrier.
Oranges
An excellent source of vitamin C, oranges offer amazing results to your skin when eaten regularly. They can promote the production of collagen, which boosts elasticity, keeping the skin firm and wrinkle-free.
Walnuts
Walnuts can repair skin cells and help retain moisture because they are rich in vitamin E. They are also a great source of omega-3, a fatty acid that promotes hydration and fights against wrinkles. Eating walnuts regularly can help detox your skin to maintain a healthy appearance.
