Your Diet Will Affect Your Skin's Health!
The first step in looking younger begins with what you decide to put
into your mouth. Following an anti-inflammatory diet can combat the
effects of sugar-aging inflammation, a process that causes skin to
become less flexible which leads to stiffness and wrinkles. An
anti-inflammatory diet is protein adequate without a lot of fat, is
rich in vegetables and includes a touch of essential fatty acids (EFAs).
The proper diet will help your skin just as much as any anti-oxidant
cream or lotion.
Nicholas V. Perricone, M.D.
Most people think of a diet as being appropriate only for weight loss,
however eating the right kind of foods and following a proper diet
will put you on the fast track to a healthy body and healthy skin
regardless of whether you want to shed pounds.
Not too long ago, the FDA outlined a diet that recommended Americans
load up on carbohydrates and limit their protein. After years of
research from doctors and nutritionists, though, the four basic food
system and the impact it has on our health is being altered. The best
diet for staving off everything from visible effects of aging to heart
disease and cancer is to eat large amounts of protein, make good
choices about carbohydrates, and choose fruits and vegetables rather
than refined processed foods for the sugar fix our body craves. The
anti-inflammation diet accomplishes all of these goals.
By curbing the carbohydrates in our diet we will reduce the level of
insulin and sugar in the body. While consuming carbohydrates the blood
sugar rises and insulin is secreted to keep that sugar under control.
The insulin pushes your cellular metabolism into a mode in which it
produces inflammatory chemicals and encourage s your body to store
fats.
By stimulating the inflammatory chemicals in our body we kick-start
the aging process. There are carbohydrates that do not cause your
blood sugar to rise to unhealthy levels such as asparagus, beans,
broccoli, blueberries, cabbage, cantaloupe, peaches, pears, spinach
and most non-starchy vegetables. These foods should make up the
majority of your carbo intake so that you avoid the "spikes" in blood
sugar level that you receive when eating carbohydrates such as corn,
potatoes, and pasta.
One particular type of protein that should be a part of your diet is
fish! There's a reason why it's called brain food- it's intelligent to
eat it! Certain types of fish are loaded with a nutrient that fights
inflammation: omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFAs). Omega-3's EFAs
have the ability to dramatically reduce the body's production of
inflammatory compounds including some omega-6 EFAs (which can cause
inflammation if not taken from the proper food source). Balancing
omega-3 EFAs and omega-6 EFAs is essential in maintaining excellent
health.
With your anti-inflammation diet in place, you can have meals that
will improve your skin's glow. Eating fish that are rich in omega-3
like salmon, herring, snapper, bass, and trout combined with
vegetables like romaine lettuce, broccoli, spinach, green beans, and
cauliflower plus adding fruits like raspberries, strawberries, melon
and cantaloupe can lead to a healthier skin composition. Oh, and by
the way, you may also wind up preventing disease and becoming
healthier as a result!
