Tanu Arora, Head Of Department - Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics, Aakash Healthcare Super Speciality Hospital, and Zodi, senior dietician, Indian Spinal Injuries Centre, have a few suggestions:
- Include certain foods in diet which are rich in vitamins like riboflavin, niacin and cyanocobalamin. Exclude poor quality of food which causes inflammation and ultimately affects skin.
-
Hydrate the body so as to remove the toxins from the body.
-
Skin collagen gets damaged when there is high consumption of sugar and processed carbohydrates, while foods like fruits and vegetables are good for skin.
-
Deep fried food can add to inflammation. On the other hand, vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low fat dairy and lean protein can help fight inflammation.
-
Lettuce, broccoli, spinach, tomato, watermelon, grapefruit, guava, salmon, chickpea, oat meal and brown rice help in curbing inflammation.
-
A long way to preventing wrinkles is to eat food items like carrots that are loaded with vitamins.
-
Almonds and walnuts are rich in Vitamin E and help to fight skin problems.
-
Green tea has powerful anti-oxidants to protect skin from damage.
-
Yogurt has probiotics that nourish skin from inside and outside.
-
Honey is hygroscopic in nature.
-
All berries are healthy anti-oxidants. They kill radicals that are in bodies, damaging DNA and cells and causing premature ageing. Berries can fight damages caused by environmental pollutants and toxins.
-
Turmeric acts as anti-oxidants.
-
Alcohol should be avoided as it creates free radicals which damage cells and accelerates ageing.
