Is Your Diet Giving You Wrinkles?

Wrinkles may be an inevitable part of aging, but that doesn't mean fighting them is useless. Protecting your skin from UV radiation is the most significant thing you can do to prevent wrinkles, sagging, and brown spots. Some people try chemical peels, Botox, dermal fillers or surgery. But those efforts are all done from the outside. What about protecting your skin from the inside?

Studies show that what you eat, or don't eat, has a definite effect on your skin. So although a new diet won't clear away all your wrinkles or halt skin aging, nutrition can make a huge difference not only in how you look, but also how you feel.

One recent study revealed that people whose diets are rich in vegetables, beans, olive oil, nuts, and whole grains are less likely to wrinkle than those who feast on red meat, butter, and sugary foods. 

Experts suspect that the antioxidants contained in fruits and vegetables may help keep wrinkles at bay by reducing the amount of damaging free radicals produced by skin cells.

To help achieve a healthy, youthful glow, turn away from the sun and instead turn to carotenoid-rich foods such as cantaloupe, apricots, carrots, sweet potatoes, and other fruits and vegetables that have deep green, yellow, orange, and red hues.

I also recommend Juice Plus+, which is 17 different fruits and vegetables in a capsule to provide extra protection for your health and skin rejuvenation.
