Beat Dry Skin

Cold winds…long dark nights—these are all the signs that winter is here. Also what reminds most of us that winter is here is dry, itchy skin! In the winter months skin doesn't retain moisture as well as it does in the summer humidity. Your entire body seems to get dry, itchy and dull in winter. So, it is very important this time of year, to make sure you moisturize and take extra special care of your skin.


Start from within - healthy skin starts with good nutrition. To get and keep your skin in the best shape, make sure you add foods rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids (EFAs) to your diet. These foods are rich in nutrients that protect and moisturize your skin.


Foods such as, spinach, broccoli, berries, and romaine lettuce, should be added to your "skin" diet because they are antioxidants, high in vitamins A, C, and E. They will help to improve the health of your skin by affecting the production of collagen, and protecting against cell damage.


Salmon, olive oil, flaxseed, raw pumpkin seeds, and almonds. These foods are high in essential fatty acids and will help your skin become softer.


Finally, we've heard it all before, add more water to your diet, but do you do it? Try to work your way up to drinking at least two liters everyday. You may add a multiple supplement to your diet that has, Vitamin A (as beta-carotene), Mineral-buffered vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Omega-3's if you know you're not getting them from the foods you eat.

To keep the moisture that you have added from within I highly recommend
