Diet according to your skin type

To regain youthful and plumped skin
The ideal way to regain youthful skin is to favor fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants in your diet! As you already know, antioxidants help fight against the premature aging of cells in our body. They act by absorbing free radicals which are the cause of skin aging. The more antioxidant-rich products you eat, the more effective they are! To better understand, here are the foods to add to your diet: spinach, chard, peppers as well as red fruits such as strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, pomegranates… As a bonus, red fruits give a radiant complexion .

For those with dry skin
To regain hydrated and supple skin, drink at least 1.5 liters of water a day to provide natural hydration to your skin. In addition, dry skin is very thin and is often subject to faster skin aging.

For those with combination to oily skin
It is essential for combination to oily skin to avoid consuming dairy products and industrial sugars! We explain why: once in the body, dairy products are transformed into androgen and testosterone in our body. Testosterone increases the production of sebum, which causes the appearance and inflammation of pimples. In addition, too much sugar consumption increases the glycemic index and increases blood sugar levels. In order to regulate this high sugar level, the body produces insulin which stimulates the production of sebum and therefore the appearance of imperfections! As you will have understood, you must try to reduce your consumption of cakes, chocolates, sodas, pastries, rice, pasta and dairy products. Also try to reduce your consumption of cold meats rich in saturated fatty acids which tend to cause inflammation of pimples! Obviously, it is not a question of adopting a strict diet, because it is important to have fun.
However, you have to limit their consumption and understand which foods cause pimples to appear on your skin. If we have one food to recommend, it’s beets! Thanks to its detoxifying effect, it promotes the digestion of food and eliminates all toxins from your body. you have to limit their consumption and understand which foods cause pimples to appear on your skin.
