The skin is our largest organ and is affected by both external and internal factors. Get the best tips on how to keep the skin fresh and prevent premature aging. 

4 step to healthier skin!  
1. Stress less
2. Exercise regularly  
3. Sleep well  
4. Avoid alcohol 

The best foods for your skin!
1. Blueberries and other dark berries contain anthocyanins, which together with vitamin C promotes the growth of collagen.  
2. Green tea contains lots of antioxidants and catechins that inhibit collagen breakdown. It also has a good effect against cancer. 
3. Strawberries and blackberries contain ellagic acid, which protects the skin against UV light.  
4. Tomatoes and watermelon have lycopene which helps protect the skin against UV light.  
5. 70-percent dark chocolate contains lots of antioxidants and may reduce the amount of harmful free acid radicals. 
6. Oily fish is rich in omega-3 fat that binds protein.  
7. Dried apricots are packed with vitamin A, which renews the cells.  
8. Sunflower seeds, olive oil and avocados are full of beneficial vitamin E to keep the skin moist and prevent dryness.

P.s. 
Are you a vegetarian?
Make sure to get enough protein! Eat plenty of beans, lentils and high quality almonds. If you choose milk and eggs, the latter has a perfect composition of protein.  
Tip! When you make an omelet, mix in egg whites and you will get the extra proteins.
