Avoid Diets

To have beautiful skin you must make sure your diet is rich in certain foods. The problem with this is that the nutrition required by the skin is often at odds with that of the body seeking to be slimmer.

Dairy products
We know about the benefits to the skin of the bifidus group of bacteria. These aid the digestion so eliminating spots, and they encourage the absorption of the B group vitamins, which are vital for a healthy complexion. If you have given up cheese, cream cheese and yoghurts then you must be sure to replace them with food supplements rich in bifidia bacteria.

Cutting out fat
Perhaps you are cutting out fat from your diet in order to lose weight? This makes sense as far as your figure goes but not unfortunately your skin. Fats are absolutely essential components of the cell membranes and if they are deficient the cells harden, the skin dries out and wrinkles appear. In this case the best thing to do is increase your consumption of vegetable oils. A spoonful of olive, corn or groundnut oil in your salad is enough to help restore the cutaneous barrier. Eating oily fish is also important for the fatty acids they contain. If you are following a very strict diet make sure, nonetheless, that you take enough supplements containing oils: fish, borage, evening primrose oil for example. These are low in calories but excellent for the skin.

Some Facts about Skin Diet

• If you don't eat dairy products take food supplements containing bifidus bacteria.
• If your diet prohibits the consumption of fat, take oil capsules (evening primrose oil, borage or fish).
• If you are following the low-calorie diet make sure you top up with a course of vitamins and minerals.
