10 Foods For Healthy Skin
Healthy Skin Food #10: Carrots
Carrots are known to have beta-carotene, which gives the vegetable the orange or red plant pigment. Just like sweet potatoes, it has the same benefits. As beta-carotene is converted to vitamin A, it is an essential vitamin needed and an antioxidant that helps vision, immunity, and the skin.
Eating carrots and their added nutrients help repair skin tissue and protect the skin from sun damage. The skin has three layers and consumption of foods rich in antioxidants helps repair tissue internally, while protecting the skin at their outermost layer. Enjoying carrots raw in a salad or as a snack will help maintain that healthy glow.
