3 Organic Foods That Can Transform Your Complexion
Beauty also comes from deep within you.
Organic beauty isn’t just about applying natural products to your skin. It is also important that you look after your health, using other natural means as well. The three natural ingredients listed below can work wonders and show your best skin.
Mushrooms – For Anti-Aging
Mushrooms contain vitamin D. Vitamin D has the effect of lengthening what are known as 'telomeres' found on the ends of your cells. The telomeres act as 'caps' on either end of the DNA and they are there so that we can lose some of the ends of our DNA without it adversely effecting our health. Because of these caps, we don't start deteriorating until we reach a certain age and some experts believe that vitamin D may be able to add a little more time on the clock. Not only that, the Vitamin D plays an integral role in regulating hormones and it can help to ensure that you have the right balance of anabolic hormones that help rebuild and repair the tissues in your body. And we all know the effect that a hormone imbalance can have on skin… remember those skin eruptions you had as a teenager?
Valerian Root – For a Vibrant Complexion
Valerian root is a natural muscle relaxant and it is most often used as a sleeping aid. When you sleep, your body does its best to repair and heal damage - seen and unseen - that was done during your day - this includes any damage to the skin. We all know that we get bags under our eyes when we don't get enough sleep and in the long term this can be even more devastating. When your body get proper rest, it does so much to keep your skin looking fresh and healthy. When a person is tired, it shows.
Fish – For Amazing Benefits Across the Board
Fish can help improve your health in so many ways. Fish is not only a reliable source of lean protein and it is also the best source of omega 3 fatty acids (oily fish in particular). Whether you go for krill, salmon or tuna, it doesn't matter – either way you'll get omega 3 which will help to make your skin more dewy, supple and flexible. These changes in your skin happen because the Omega 3 help increase your cells' membrane permeability.
Better yet, omega 3 appears to increase production of telomerase – an enzyme that can actually increase the length of your telomeres. Researchers have found that those with omega 3 indexes of less than four percent actually age quicker than those with higher scores.
So... Fish, Yeah!!
