Flawless skin tipsYou are probably wondering if nutrition rules are available in determining the quality of your skin and if there are foods that can make our skin look like porcelain. Well, yes!Skin is not only the mirror of our state of mind, but also of our health. Color, texture and tone are the result of constant consumption of vitamins, minerals, essential fat acids, etc. No matter how much you care, no matter how many expensive creams you use, if you are healthy you can see it with you own eyes. Sugar and flawless skinStudies have shown that sugar makes us look old. Not only the fact that it gets us fat but also destroys the collagen fibers and elastin responsible for a fresh and firm skin. When we eat food rich in sugar (cakes, chocolate, juices, soft fruits, etc.) sugar get stuck to healthy protein fibers (collagen, elastin), adjusting the shape and properties. These causes, in turn, inflammation and damage in all body cells and molecules.It was also discovered that all food that contains as little sugar as possible, prepared with heat (barbecue, fry, in the oven), and that have a golden-brown crust are equally dangerous and cause the same reactions described above. The most dangerous foods are raw dairy products (especially cheese, butter), red meat, processed food, especially cereals and everything you cook in the oven, plus snacks and sweets of all kind. As a suggestion we should eat more vegetables and fresh fruit, fish, skimmed milk, raw nuts and seeds.

Carbohydrates that are permitted from time to time: canned or dried fruit, bananas and watermelon, ice cream, sugar and other sweeteners, bread from whole cereals.
