SKIN SUPERFOODS OF THE DAY

Our body naturally makes collagen by breaking down protein into amino acids however sun exposure, poor diet and alcohol lower our body’s ability to produce collagen, so it is important to avoid these habits and protect the collagen you have.

 

BREAKFAST: BERRY ANTIOXIDANT SMOOTHIE

Blueberries & antioxidants. Antioxidants protect your skin against free radicals, the molecules that damage your skin. Free radicals can be produced by stress, inflammation, environmental pollutants and chemicals. Neutralising their impact by consuming antioxidants is vital for protecting your skin. Antioxidants can also brighten skin, calm irritation and even work to smooth fine lines. They also contain significant amounts of the skin friendly element: zinc.
