Friday: Health: Beautiful Foods!

Hey there, it’s Friday and for healthy-living this week I found in Seventeen foods that make you pretty and foods that can sabotage beauty.

Three foods to improve your beauty and body:
1) To get clearer skin try a salmon sushi roll and edamame. Salmon and edamame (soy beans) have omega-3 fatty acids, which are healthy fats to help soften your skin, protect against acne and clogged pores, and keep your eyes sparkly and bright.
2) To get a brighter smile try a strawberry-raspberry yogurt parfait. Yogurt and low-fat dairy are high in calcium and phosphorus, which help teeth stay shiny and strong and vitamin C, which will keep your gums healthy.
3) To get shiny hair try beef or tofu stir fry. Lean beef and tofu have iron, which makes hair shiny and soft and vitamin C from veggies like red pepper, which help your body absorb the iron.

Three foods to sabotage your beauty:
1) Too much sugar can make your skin oily and clog pores, which cause zits.
2) Too much sodium (French fries/Chinese food/soup) can cause puffy eyes and bloating.
3) Too much caffeine (energy drinks/coffee) can drain your body of moisture and make skin dry.
