Green smoothies
Have become a bit of a
trend in recent years and for good reason. Consuming one each day can
significantly benefit your health and the look of your skin.
By including leafy greens, carrots and
berries into a morning smoothie, you are consuming antioxidants, beta carotene
and vitamin K. The result? A decrease in inflammation within the body, which is
a primary cause of many skin conditions; minimized underage circles.
Why Blueberries Rock
Blueberries, the fountain of youth! So
delicious and packed with healthy benefits for your skin. They are loaded with
antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, and are a great source of fiber. They are
also a nutritional powerhouse. When you think of anti-aging and keeping your
skin healthy, you need to think of the foods you’re putting into your body.
Make sure blueberries are a part of your daily routine. Use them in your
cereal, pancakes or smoothies. They’re also great added to salads.
The Vitamin C in blueberries, fights free
radicals which damage your skin cells and break down collagen. Loosing collagen
leads to wrinkles and nobody wants those. The antioxidants in blueberries protect
you from premature aging and give your skin a more youthful and softer
appearance. Free radicles are harmful to your body and they can damage the
collagen which is there to keep your skin firm and healthy.
Making sure you eat foods rich in
antioxidants will help to increase circulation which results in glowing skin.
Besides the fact that blueberries are simply delicious, they are crucial for
collagen production and guarding against skin cancer.
Everyone wants to look younger, so add
those blueberries to your diet. They can keep you looking younger and feeling
younger, both physically and mentally. And something else to keep in mind –
blueberries can put you in a good mood and keep those stress levels in check!
The Benefits of Running
Who would have thought that running, as
well as any exercise could be great for your skin. Running promotes healthy
circulation and when the circulation is moving, it helps to keep your skin
looking healthy and vibrant. Exercise nourishes skin cells and keeps the blood
flowing throughout the body, including the skin. Running also helps with stress
and when stress is reduced, certain skin issues like acne and eczema can
diminish.
If you’re a runner, one of the many things
you need to be aware of is damage from the sun. Those who love to run are out
morning, noon and night, as well as throughout the year, whether in the heat of
the sun or coldness of the winter. No matter when you run, protection from the
harmful UVA and UVB rays is extremely important, and believe it or not, those
harmful rays can affect your skin even in the coldest of winters. Sunburns will
increase your risk for skin cancer and can quickly age your skin. So, not only
protect your body by wearing appropriate clothing, eyewear and shoes, but make
sure you have the appropriate sun protection.
As mentioned before, running gets your
circulation moving and when that happens you also sweat, or for us women,
glisten.
It’s important after running to get in the
shower to remove the bacteria that sweating causes. TréSkinRX’s Purifying
