There are certain foods in this world that have benifits that you look past. If you are looking to add some benifits to your diet, check out these foods to help yourself keep looking fabulous!
Strawberries: These help keep your teeth healthy and your heart strong! They help fight the bacteria that contribute to tooth decay and gum disease. These red berries carry the most anthocyanins which are a protective factor.
Carrots: We all know carrots are good for our eyes, but they also give your skin a radiant glow and can imporve your memory! The orange and yellow pigments can create an au naturel tan. Make sure to not eat too many or your skin may make you too yellow or orange. Carrots contain luteolin which can reduce inflammation and can give you a better spatial memory.
Green Tea: I help myself to a cup of green tea a few times a week because not only can it fight bad breath but it allso tamps down inflammation. Tea contains antioxidents that can help destroy the growth of bacteria that cause bad breath.
Coffee: Coffee can protect against skin cancer! Drinking a single cup daily may lower your risk of skin cancer. Decaf however doesn't seem to offer the same protection. Moderate coffee drinking may also reduce the risk of memory loss.
Tofu: This power food can keep wrinkles at bay and improve cholesterol. Soy may help preserve skin-firming collagen because it contains a lot of isoflavones. Soy protein is said to lower cholesterol by helping the liver clear more LDL from the body.
Salmon: Salmon protects your eyes, can improve your mood, and tastes great! Omega 3 fatty acids in fish are key components of the nerve cells in the retina. Omega 3s also can alter the brain chemicals linked with mood and can release in response to pleasurable experiences.
Try improving your life and adding these foods to your diet!
