We all have our own “breakout blacklists” for the foods we know will wreak havoc on our faces and cause an unsightly breakout at the worst possible moment, but do you have a go-to list of foods you should be eating too? Having a great complexion is about more than just avoiding the bad, you also have to seek out the good and feed it from the inside out. Here are five foods that can help anybody have more beautiful skin.
- Cheese. Who knew? Cheese is probably on your naughty list, but when eaten in moderation the Vitamin A can help build new skin cells, and the probiotics found in many varieties reduce inflammation and help the body absorb important nutrients needed for skin growth and repair.
- Brewer’s Yeast. Available in powder form (dissolves in water or juice) or pills, brewer’s yeast is rich in B vitamins that the body uses to grow bright new skin cells so it can slough off the old ones.
- Mackerel. Not the most common seafood, but healthy nonetheless, Atlantic mackerel (always avoid farmed fish of any kind) is an especially great source of powerful anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids and selenium, an antioxidant that fights the free-radicals that damage skin cells.
- Psyllium. This seed extract encourages skin to slough off and regenerate, plus some studies suggest it can help skin cells “stick together” better so skin appears firmer. Psyllium is found mostly in cereals, but is also available in powder form and can easily be sprinkled into shakes and sauces.
- Sesame Seeds. These seeds have high amounts of the antioxidant Vitamin E and can help your skin fight against the negative effects of sun damage. They’re also a good source of copper, which your body uses to make an even more powerful antioxidant called superoxide dimutase. Try sprinkling a 1/4 cup serving on a salad for both a flavor and a complexion boost.

LAXMI SAT ISABGOL Beneift of Psyllium husk( SAT ISABGOL) Psyllium may help with weight loss control. Also see an effective appetite suppressant called Diet Rx with no side effects. Psyllium is a wonderful bulking fiber for constipation. Another benefit of psyllium husk is that it reduces fecal incontinence. Psyllium helps maintain healthy cholesterol and blood lipid levels. In 1998, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration authorized the use of a health claim in the labeling of foods and dietary supplements containing psyllium husk. The health claim states that diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol that include soluble fiber per day from psyllium may reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering cholesterol. Psyllium may help maintain healthy blood pressure. Psyllium added to a traditional diet for persons with type II diabetes is safe, well tolerated, and improves glycemic and lipid control. Psyllium reduces radiation-induced diarrhea. Psyllium could be helpful for hemorrhoids since it softens the stools. Psyllium fiber is best taken in a dose of 1 to 5 grams with a meal, particularly if the meal has a low fiber content. You can mix half a teaspoon or a teaspoon of psyllium fiber with a glass of water, once or twice a day. I also recommend drinking a glass of water in the morning when you wake up.
