We all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but not everyone realizes just how important it can be. Most people are aware of the health benefits of eating a balanced, nutritious breakfast, but did you know that breakfast can be beneficial to your skincare too?
Our skin reacts to foods we eat just like our bodies do, so eating healthy foods with plenty of vitamins can keep you looking refreshed, relaxed and rejuvenated. And there are a few breakfast foods that can give you powerful results.
Oranges
Providing you with plenty of vitamin C and boosting your body’s collagen levels, oranges are powerful for your beauty game yet no fuss when it comes to food prep. Eating oranges can help your skin build and repair itself, leaving you with a bright and younger-seeming complexion.
Yogurt With Blueberries And Chia Seeds
Yogurt is a great and easy breakfast food, and paired with blueberries and chia seeds, it’s basically a spa day for your skin. The calcium and probiotics in yogurt promote an overall healthy glow, while blueberries contain high amounts of antioxidants that protect the skin from free radicals. Chia seeds fight inflammation.
Avocado Toast
Avocado toast is already everyone’s favorite breakfast, but it’s also one of the best meals you can have for your skin. Avocados are high in vitamins C and E, which protect the skin and promote a brighter tone. They also have antioxidants that help maintain elasticity and radiance.
Overnight Oats With Nuts
The antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties in oats keep the skin hydrated and help it to repair and regenerate itself. Eating overnight oats with nuts can help you reap the most benefits as you can from oats, plus nuts contain vitamin B that help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
