Fresh and toned skin is not only the result of the chemical magic of creams and serums, but also a whole range of well-established factors: a decent environment, a healthy pace of life and even the ability to think positively. Not least is a balanced diet that helps maintain healthy skin from the inside out. We tell you what products should be included in it in order to overcome the most unpleasant problems.
Problem: dryness and dullness
Foods high in omega-3s will help here. Include fish in your diet ─ salmon, tuna or trout are fine. The trace elements in them will help to retain moisture inside the skin. If you are not a fish lover, then look for help with avocados, walnuts, and flaxseeds.
Also, to get rid of the constant feeling of tightness and flaking of the skin, add a tablespoon of sunflower oil to salads. The linoleic acid it contains is essential for cells to regenerate and maintain water balance.
Problem: redness
Peppermint is anti-inflammatory, so pay close attention to it if you're worried about red spots on your face. Add a few mint leaves to your tea every day and you will notice the results in a couple of weeks.
For the problem of red spots, whole grain or rye bread is also indicated, which is rich in vitamin B3, known for its ability to eliminate redness.
Problem: cellulite
Drink as much green tea as possible to get rid of these nasty dimples in your buttocks, sides, or stomach. It contains catechins and polyphenols - antioxidants that remove harmful toxins from the body and normalize water balance.
If every morning you drink not instant, but ground coffee, then rejoice ─ you have at your disposal the best remedy for cellulite of all times and peoples. Take used coffee grounds, mix it with a little of your favorite shower gel, add a couple of drops of body oil and scrub all problem areas with it. First, get baby-like smooth skin. Secondly, provide blood flow to the right places, and there it is not far from short shorts.
