Ten healthy habits to better looking skin

Contrary to what you think, your skin needs healthy oils. But it requires those healthy oils that help promote shine. In comes the avocado, which not only serves for a fabulous mask, but its rich flavor and promotes hydrated, firm and flexible skin. Additional healthy oils can be found in nuts, seeds and fish.

Did you know that your body converts the proteins you consume into collagen and keratin for the skin? If you are a fish lover and you eat salmon, sardines and tuna — you are on the right track! You can even add other proteins such as legumes (including lentils and chickpeas) to your menu.

Eggs are another component that can't be missing in your diet because they are rich in vitamin A, selenium and zinc. These desired nutrients help you avoid sun damage on the dermis and also on the innermost layers of the skin. They also help accelerate the healing of wounds caused by an injury.

Talking about skincare cannot be without the discussion of vitamin E. It's a very necessary micronutrient because it works as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that prevents wrinkles, sagging and cancer. It works with vitamin C to strengthen cell walls. You can find it in extra virgin olive oil, as well as in eggs and avocados.

The skin requires a lot of vitamin C and omega 3 fatty acids as it ages due to her aiding in the production of collagen and how they help with sun protection. They also provide the body with powerful antioxidants that reduce the probability of having cancer. What foods can we go to for them? Think green: spinach, kale and chard.
