Between the obesity rate being on the rise, GMOs sparking
all kinds of controversies, and local food regaining some footing in the
marketplace, food is constantly in the news.
It is wonderful that this issue, the food we eat, is getting some
serious attention. For too long
consumers have turned a blind eye to the artificial ingredients, preservatives,
and chemicals in not only processed food, but fresh produce as well. Since food plays a major role in the health
of the body, the quality of the food we eat can correlate with the quality of
our health. Every system is affected by
food, including the skin. Adding
OroGold cosmetics to your daily routine is going to help your skin look better,
but to have it looking its best, you need to have a healthy diet in addition to
using Oro gold products.
Yes to Fruits and
Vegetables
The first thing you should do to revamp your diet and make
it more skin friendly is to increase the number of fruits and vegetables you
eat during the day. These food are where
you are going to find a lot of essential minerals, vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants. Vitamins and minerals do everything from help
your body remove impurities to boosting metabolism. Antioxidants are extremely important to your
overall health as well as keeping your skin in excellent condition. They are responsible for counteracting and removing free radicals in the body.
When molecules split, they are usually left with a stable
number of electrons. If the electron are
not stable, it becomes a free radical and begins stealing electrons from the
molecules around it, turning them into free radicals and the cycle continues. That is unless there is an antioxidant there
to stop them. Antioxidants can give up
their electrons without becoming unstable, which puts a stop to the cycle. Since free radicals have a direct effect on
the appearance of the skin, you should really boost your intake of blueberries,
grapes, and avocados. The daily serving recommendation
is two servings of fruit and two servings of vegetables every day. To get the most out of this food group, eat
a variety throughout the day. It will
curb your appetite while delivering beneficial properties to your skin and
body.
No to Sugar and Salt
You don’t have to cut out all sugar and salt. Actually, a small amount of these things can actually
help the body. But in excess, they make
your body work less efficiently and are a major weight gain factor. By simply cutting out your daily soda, you
would see a big difference. Refined
sugars are quickly processed by your body, with little nutritional value, which
makes you hungry again almost immediately.
Salt causes your body to retain more water. Be aware that processed food has a notoriously
high amount of sodium. So after
ordering your Oro Gold cosmetics from the Oro Gold store, head the grocery
store to stock up on fruits and vegetables, and try not to be tempted by the
potato chips and soda.
