Women Are Swapping Their Boring Water For This Ice Pop Electrolyte Mix!
1. Berries
Perhaps the least surprising food on our list? Berries. Whether your berry of choice is blueberries, strawberries, or blackberries, all berries are amazing or your skin because they contain antioxidants and flavonoids that help neutralize skin cell-damaging free radicals. This sweet food also helps being oxygen to the cells. As Zara points out, two key reasons our skin could be showing signs of aging is because it isn’t getting enough hydration or oxygen. Eating berries helps with both. Throw a few in your smoothie or eat them in Greek yogurt or oatmeal.
2. Mushrooms
Mushrooms like chana and reishi can help with anti-aging and give you “the botox-looking effect.” These mushrooms are rich in antioxidants and have anti-inflammatory properties that can calm skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Reishi mushrooms even have adaptogenic properties and can balance the body’s hormone levels and stress responses, which can keep your skin clear. You don’t necessarily have to eat mushrooms whole, either. There are a number of powdered mushroom supplements that can be added to smoothies, water, and even coffee.
3. Palo Azul Tea
This tea is “amazing” because it’s high in flavonoids and antioxidants, plus it boasts detoxifying properties that help cleanse the liver and kidneys. This anti-inflammatory tea is known to aid in digestion and blood sugar regulation and can keep skin clear, smooth, and more youthful-looking.
Break up the monotony of your usual green tea and try a soothing cup of Palo Azul tea for health and skin benefits.
