Winter Superfoods For Nourished And Radiant Skin:
1. Carrots
According to the book ‘Healing Foods’ by DK Publishing House, “in addition to beta-carotene, lutein, and lycopene, carrots contain silicon, which promotes healthy skin and nails.” Carrots also contain vitamin A that may help fight acne, wrinkles, pigmentation and uneven skin tone.
Beetroot is a great source of vitamin C. By fighting free radical activity, vitamin C helps delay ageing and makes your skin youthful and radiant. You can use the root vegetable to make a variety of things. Beetroot soups and juices may help make a stellar addition to your diet.
3. Oranges
Oranges are a treasure trove of antioxidants. They are enriched with vitamin C and calcium. Vitamin C may do wonders for your skin. You can tuck into it with a sprinkling of chaat masala. You can drink a glass of fresh home-made orange juice too. Rubbing orange juice on the face helps de-clog skin as well.
4. Pomegranates
Pomegranates have high water content, which means they help hydrate your skin better. Pomegranates are also rich in vitamin C and a variety of anti-oxidants that help combat free-radical activity, which is responsible for deteriorating skin-health.
5. Guava
The crunchy fruit is immensely beneficial for your blood sugar levels. A good source of vitamin A, C, beta-carotene and lycopene, guava is replete with beauty benefits. You can eat it raw, blend it in smoothies, or make wholesome shakes.
