Skin Food: Carrots
Carrots are extremely high in beta-carotene, which is a form of vitamin A. Beta carotene is perhaps one of the best antioxidants that prevents aging by reducing the degeneration of cells so you can maintain a youthful look. Vitamin A is also good for the growth of tissues, improved vision, healthy bones, and healthy teeth.
The vitamin A and carotenoidantioxidants found in carrots support cellular turnover which can help improve skin tone and acne by keeping pores clear.
The vitamin C you’ll find in carrots will increase the amount of collagen in the body and collagen improves skin’s elasticity to prevent wrinkles and deflect the typical signs of aging.
Carrots are also high in potassium, which helps keep the electrolytes in the body balances, reduces acne, and increases the growth of healthy, new skin cells. Potassium can also relieve you of scarring as well as the dark spots so often seen in aged skin.
