Want to know the ultimate diet for glowing skin

Glowing skin is every woman's desire, flawless skin, whether publicly known or secretly and they would go to any length to achieve blemish free, clear complexion. However, there are a number of factors such as the scorching sun, stress both emotional and physiological, hormonal imbalances and even everyday pollution that prevent your skin from achieving the desired levels of perfection. You could try a million different products, methods or even hacks to get soft and supple skin, especially one with that natural healthy glow, but none of them is going to help unless and until you start eating and drinking healthier. I can't say eat green and drink clear only, that would lead to sugar and happiness withdrawal, we would then have very grumpy females walking around and PMS hormonal moods are enough grump to handle. The way to glowing skin, quite like the way to a person’s heart, is truly through the stomach!

Your dietary habits impact your overall health and your skin is equally affected, perhaps the most affected by what you eat. I have the experience and scars to prove, 3x Hot Korean noodles sent my skin into pure turmoil and eating burfee for a month made me break out on my nose and forehead for weeks on end. Having a healthy stomach, bowel movement, gut and liver are imperative to having clear, unblemished skin, amongst a host of other health benefits. Although our diets and the generic and overly processed food can be blamed for diets falling off the wagon or for diets not being effective enough. It 8s important to note what goes into your body and their genetic composition. Well I know the phrase 'genetic composition' may sound daunting and seem like you need to read novels before choosing each item you decide to consume. But, that is not the case, a few phrases make all the difference, namely; organic, free range, etc. Basically, you need to follow a diet for glowing skin. Here’s a list of some of the foods that can aid you in acquiring the perfect skin and complexion within a few days... Yogurt for skin

Yoghurt is easily the best food for glowing skin. Most of the skin ailments that we have are caused on account of having an unhealthy stomach, bowels and gut. Yoghurt is known to contain probiotics that aid in the process of digestion, thereby ensuring that problems such as breakouts and skin dryness do not bother your radiant flawless complexion. Consume as much yoghurt as you like, after every meal and with smoothies and fruits salads, but take into consideration the sugar levels and fat content if you weight conscious. As the Turks would say, yoghurt is the cure for absolutely everything! Green Leafy Vegetables for skin

Nothing says "Hello good skin" like a bowl of fresh, green leafy vegetables. Whether it is spinach, coriander, parsley, or broccoli, these viridescent leaves are full of antioxidants and other essential nutrients and vitamins that help your skin retain its brightness and youth. There are so many versatile ideas to explore with these garden-fresh ingredients, from soups, salads, or sandwiches, and if you’re more of a fan of traditional Indian cuisine, the good old ‘ Saag Bahji' or ‘Palakoora Vepadu’ are just as beneficial for your skin, and arguably, much more delicious. The road to glowing skin can really tantalize your taste buds and get you to ‘eat your greens’. Fruits for skin

From citrus fruits, to papayas and avocados, fruits are absolutely indispensable to the cause of unblemished skin. There’s a number of different fruits out there with a multitude of different benefits for your skin. Mangoes help your skin retain and improve its elasticity while bananas can help prevent a premature occurrence of wrinkles. The vitamin-C present in citrus fruits help in collagen synthesis, but it also protects your skin and even repairs any damage that might be caused by the scorching sun. Papayas, on the other hand, are excellent skin cleansing agents and help your skin in shedding old dead cells. The super fruit is, ‘the avocado’, is rich in healthy fats and vitamin-E and can help remedy a number of issues such as skin damage, acne, premature wrinkles, moisture retention and having dreary-looking skin. Cherries, berries, apples and kiwis are the key to clear complexion that you’re looking for, you’ve got to have them all! Turmeric for skin

When the question, "what to eat for glowing skin?", arises turmeric is easily the most age-old answer. Every recipe in an Indian household have turmeric in them. Antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, ‘anti-all bad things’ superhero of an ingredient is one you can add to everything right from your soups to your smoothies and even face masks. The curcumin present in turmeric helps fight any bacterial infection both inside and outside your body, whether the turmeric is ingested or applied externally. In your quest to attain the perfect glowing complexion, it certainly does make sense to add turmeric to almost everything. Aloe Vera for skin

Aloe Vera is one plant that you’ll find in just about every home except mine. This succulent plant is known to remedy almost all skin problems out there, especially in the case of any skin inflammations. On account of such anti-inflammatory properties of the hormones present in it, aloe vera can provide your skin with relief from a number of ailments, whether the gel is applied externally on the skin or its extract is consumed in the form of juice. Although, aloe vera may not agree with everyone, like it doesn't seem to with me. I tend to break out in hives if I ingest aloe. So I would suggest testing it out first before regular use or consumption and plaase do not consume the gel directly. Green Tea for skin

When we think detox yhe first thing that comes to your mind is green tea. Green Tea, especially of the Matcha kind, are full of natural antioxidants, rich in the phytonutrient known as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and is extremely efficient in protecting your skin from the harmful free radicals that are majorly responsible for skin problems such as dark spots and premature ageing. Since green tea also helps lower levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the hormone responsible for your acne issues, it is also extremely efficient in keeping your skin clear and blemish free. Water for skin

Your body compoaite is more than three-fifths of just h2o, there is no way that you could not pay attention to its consumption in pursuit of your skin’s health. No matter your skin type, your skin needs water in order to remain fresh, supple and glowing. The water retention capacity of your skin decreases with age and hence, it is even more essential that you consume adequate amounts of water on a daily basis. Not only does a water flush out all the toxins from your skin, but it also provides your skin with that natural glow and even keeps wrinkles away. It is highly recommended that you keep a bottle of water with you at all times and keep sipping on it at regular intervals. If plain old water isn’t good enough for your palate, you can always add cucumbers, some mint and a hint of lemon to it so as to make yourself a pitcher of flavourful skin detox water. Pomegranate for skin

Did you know that eating pomegranate is a great way to fight a number of skin problems and keep your skin looking young and radiant? This is because, this tropical fruit is a rich source of antioxidants that prevent damage to the skin caused by free radicals in the environment. It is also one of the best sources of natural vitamin C that helps produce the necessary amounts of collagen , which is one of the main requirements of keeping your skin healthy and young for a longer period of time. Cucumber for skin

One of the best foods you can eat to achieve healthy, clear and youthful skin has to be cucumber. This is because cucumbers contain silica, which is a type of collagen and helps in fighting the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. Additionally, cucumbers also provide a boost of vitamin K and C, both of which work to brighten tired, irritated and puffy looking skin. It also contain vitamin A, which is also known as retinol, and this makes it one of the best foods to consume to fight all signs of ageing.
