Nature has provided us with many natural foods which are good for various ailments of the body. I have selected the following foods which are extremely useful for a youthful well maintained skin. The skin should stay wrinkle free , without blemishes or acne , taut and full of vigor. To maintain and encourage your skin to stay youthful , the following foods are useful. They are normal everyday foods and you will be surprised how much they can benefit your skin.
Oranges contain vitamin C which is most essential to protect your skin from harmful ultraviolet rays . This Vitamin helps in preventing wrinkles by producing collagen in the skin. Eat one whole fruit ( not just juice) everyday, regularly for beneficial effects.
Sunflower seeds contain essential fatty acids which help skin secrete natural oils that lubricate it and prevent water loss. This helps keep skin soft and supple, improve hair texture and reduce blackhead formation . Take three teaspoons twice a week or use sunflower oil to cook your food in.

The real myth here is that diet isn't linked to acne. What dermatologists tell you is not based on facts. It's just pure dogma in the medical community. In the sixties they did one seriously flawed study that concluded that chocolate didn't cause acne. That study was so flawed it would never have been published today. In terms of science it didn't prove anything. And until early 2000 that was the only study with diet and acne. And from that one study derms have said for decades that diet has nothing to do with acne. Diet has everything to do with acne. For people who are prone to getting acne diet is often one of the biggest factors. Some foods that can cause acne - Eating too much fat - Refined carbohydrates - Dairy products - Caffeine - Processed foods The best food for clear skin - Fruits - Vegetables - Whole foods in their natural state (stay away from the processed garbage)

A good diet including plenty of fruit and vegetables, drinking plain water and not too many late nights. Try not to drink too much alcohol as it dehydrates the skin. dry skin as well as oily can give you spots. I dont have bad skin but not bad and rarely use soap on my face cos if i do i have to back it up with cream otherwise it feels dry and taut. Ps. i've heard jelly is good for your hair and nails.

Increase your vitamin C and E and include more water in your diet. At least 8 glasses a day. Try oranges and decrease foods with sugar.

Lots of vegetables, especially green ones and lots of water. Avocado is particularly good for skin. Also it's about what you don't eat. Sugar feeds skin bacteria so stay away from it as much as you can.
