Did you know that the habit of consuming fruits and vegetables is actually an overwhelming advantage, both for health and skin?

In a report published in the journal Evolution and Human Behavior, they mentioned that people who have skin glowing (glowing) typically have fairly high levels of carotenoids in the body.
Carotenoids can be found in fruits and vegetables such as peppers, spinach, mango, pumpkin, corn, apricots, tomatoes and melons.
"Dark-colored fruit such as tomatoes, carrots, or moleon contains powerful antioxidants such as carotenoids that can make skin look shiny and healthy. These antioxidants can also protect the skin from the dangers of sun exposure," says nutritionist Paula Simpson.
Study leader Stephen Dr.Ian said, people in Western countries usually do the activity in the sun to get tan skin color. And by eating fruits rich in carotenoids, the result can be the same.
He explained, fruits and vegetables full of synergy of nutrients, enzymes and antioxidants that promote the production of new skin cells that are more healthy. "New skin cells are produced every five weeks and slowed down with age. If we are diligent in taking the right nutrients, cells of the skin will be healthier," he said.
