I've never had bad acne or anything, but my skin is "difficult." Oily, dry, blotchy, you name it. I know a lot of people will tell you that the quality of your skin has nothing to do with the food you eat, but for me that's just not true. My skin responds SPECTACULARLY to a healthy diet!

So anyway, in my e-mail inbox I got this list of 50 healthy foods that are supposed to help your skin, and thought I might share it with you. I know most of you aren't teenagers any more, but that doesn't mean you can't benefit!

So, here they are (get ready to copy, paste, and print!):

Almonds
Apples
Artichokes
Asparagus
Barley
Beans (dried and fresh)
Bean sprouts
Berries
Bok Choy
Brussels sprouts
Cabbage
Cantaloupe
Cauliflower
Celery
Cherries
Chickpeas
Chinese cabbage
Cucumbers
Eggplant
Endive
Fish & shellfish
Flaxseed
Green bell peppers
Hazelnuts
Honeydew mellon
Kale
Kidney Beans
Lentils
Macadamia nuts
Mushrooms
Oatmeal
Olive oil
Olives
Oysters
Pears
Pecans
Pinto beans
Pumpkin seeds
Red bell peppers
Romaine lettuce
Salmon
Snow pea pods
Soy products
Spinach
Sunflower seeds
Tomatoes
Turkey
Turnips
Yogurt

Thanks for the list!! Further re-affirming the bennies of good eatin'!! :up:

great info 108...
my skin is always looking its best when i am eating right and especially when i am drinking my water!
even a few days off plan with some greasy food in there and my skin always breaks out.
hugs bell :)

I agree and I have to add that getting in the proper amount of water daily has REALLY done wonders for my skin. I use lotion, but very sparingly (at almost 40 no less) because my skin is always hydrated because I take in a good amount of water daily.
Healthy eating + water can only do good things for you! :up:
