Meal planning for healthy skin

Image
By Shirlie Jones
A skincare meal plan needs to incorporate anti inflammatory and nutrient rich foods.  Foods like avocado and salmon will improve your skin from the inside out.  Lotions and creams may improve your skin, but how your skin looks on the outside is also influenced  by what is happening inside your body.  Increasing the intake of certain foods will promote healthy skin.  Keeping down inflammation will impact skin health in a positive way, especially for conditions like eczema, psoriasis and arthritis.


Healthy Skin Bonus: Salmon is full of healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which research shows decrease inflammatory markers. Be sure to aim for two 3-ounce servings per week of omega-3-rich fish like salmon, albacore tuna, herring and sardines. Nervous to cook salmon at home? Check out our Ultimate Guide to Cooking Salmon for tips and recipes to help you integrate salmon into your weekly menu.
