By now, we should all be aware that there are certain foods that can help us treat our skin from within, and aid us in maintaining a naturally healthy complexion. It is important to remember that although Aesthetic procedures can help rejuvenate and re-awaken your natural good looks, It is important to supplement your skin care routine with a balanced diet to promote longevity and youthfulness.

There are several types of food good for skin maintenance. These foods are high in essential fatty acids such as Omega 3 and Omega 6, which help suppress the type of inflammation that results in saggy skin, blotchy skin patches, wrinkles, and fine lines. Some skin enhancing foods that are high in these essential fatty acids are: Almonds, Flax Seeds, Tuna, Salmon, Avocado, Legumes, spinach, broccoli, kale, and many others.

Start your day with a Green Veggie / Flax Seed / Avocado smoothy, or end your night with a delightful Sesame Crusted Salmon Filet, and better your skin from within.
