Top 8 Foods For Glowing Skin

By awakeorganics

Awake Organics How to Feed Your Skin This Winter. Natural, Nutritious Ingredients for Beautiful Glowing Skin. Made in England.

How To Feed Your Skin

Although it’s necessary to take care of our skin from the outside throughout the winter months, it’s equally important to care for our skin from the inside. It’s easy to cozy up with a warm meal and decadent sweets, but what we digest translates to our skin, painting a picture of our internal health. Holistic Nutritionist, Anise Thorogood, Love & Garnish, emphasizes how eating a balanced diet of whole, fresh, clean, and seasonal foods is the first step in seeing a radiant and healthy complexion.

We all have our favourite products and routines that work for us, but beautiful skin also comes from within. The most important factor is hydration. Those eight to ten glasses of water per day are no joke. Without adequate hydration the skin cannot maintain its flexibility and will appear dry, cracked, and dull. If you find it difficult to drink plain water all day long, try adding a few slices of lemon. It not only tastes refreshing, but lemon supports your liver’s ability to expel toxins from the body so that your skin doesn’t have to – keeping you blemish free.

Anise also recommends avoiding too many sugary drinks, caffeine, and trans and hydrogenated fats that all work to dehydrate the skin and hinder liver function. When added to your diet over time, superfoods can drastically improve your healthy, natural glow. See our list of superfoods that promote amazing skin benefits below and get ready to show Mother Nature who’s boss by taking care of your health and your skin naturally from the inside out.

Vitamin D: Encourages cell growth and helps absorb calcium which aids in bone growth.

8. Fermented & Prebiotic Foods

Fermented foods are needed for healthy gut flora which boosts immunity, helps break down food so that nutrients are taken to the cells efficiently, produces B vitamins, and helps excrete toxins (rather than excreted through the skin).

Prebiotic foods such as cabbage (sauerkraut – learn how to make it here) and asparagus are good for healthy gut flora so the good bacteria can flourish.

🥥 COCONUT OIL. It's one of the superfoods that 🥥 COCONUT OIL. It's one of the superfoods that has lost some of the limelight as of late, but it is pretty darn hard to beat when it comes to hair benefits. 
.
HERE'S WHY
🥥 oil is brimming with essential fatty acids that deliver a healthy dose of moisture, penetrating the hair shaft and helping to repair stressed hair strands.
.
🥥 oil also has mild antipruritic, antiseptic and keratolytic (compounds that break down the outer layers of thick skin) properties. It is widely recommended for treating scaly skin disorders of the scalp such as psoriasis, eczema, seborrhoeic dermatitis and dandruff. 
.
I really love it to help condition my natural silver hair but I used to saturate my hair with Coconut oil when I had bleached highlights too. It pretty awesome stuff!

Your scalp is literally ground zero for the state of your hair. So, let’s start there.
.
A healthy scalp is the terrain on which your hair will flourish, yet it is so often overlooked when it comes to our haircare routines.
.
When your scalp is balanced, unclogged and stimulated, you are setting the stage for optimal hair growth and condition.
.
Don’t forget that your scalp is just like the rest of your skin in the sense that it absorbs what you massage onto it. It makes sense to choose products with healthy ingredients that serve a purpose; improving scalp health with regular use, soothing, hydrating, relieving itchiness and giving dry strands a moisture boost.
.
Our exciting, root-stimulating scalp scrub will revitalise your haircare routine.
.
Used pre-shampoo, twice a week, this vibrant fuchsia scrub invigorates hair roots, exfoliates and preps the scalp for optimal hair growth.
