Rev Up Your Beauty With These Super Foods!

Discover better looking skin, hair, and nails through the foods you eat.  Often, we may miss those super foods or not eat enough of them to see beautiful results; however, there are several ones that should be on your list.

Almonds are loaded with vitamin E to help keep your skin hydrated.  In fact, some studies show that eating almonds can help prevent gray hair!  How much should you eat?  Try about three at a time as a snack to a small handful.

Carrots are the second beauty food.  They are loaded with beta-carotene (vitamin A) for glowing skin and pretty eyes.  You can eat as many of them and never worry about overdoing on the calories either.

Tomatoes are way up on the list also.  They are packed with lycopene, a powerful antioxidant.  Adding tomatoes to your diet will make your skin radiant and help fight sun damage.

Spinach is another helpful beauty food. Eating lots of dark leafy green spinach has plenty of antioxidants as well, which fight free radicals.  Another plus about spinach is all the vitamin A and zinc it has that will help any acne problem.

These are just a few of the top contenders to help keep you gorgeous!
