The One Fruit You Should Be Eating Everyday Over 50 For Wrinkle-Free Skin

Founder of Five Star Skincare, Toby Dash, explained that avocados are a transformative gem when it comes to anti-aging. “Avocados are delicious and help to prevent and even reverse the process of aging.”

Not only are they great for anti-aging purposes, but avocados are also one of the best foods to eat if you want moisturized and blemish-free skin. Dash explained, “The main type of carotenoid found in avocados is called lutein. Lutein prevents UV skin damage. Chlorophyll is known to prevent free radical damage.” Free radical damage quickens the aging process so anything that can fight and prevent radical damage is a winner. Avocados are also rich in Omega-3, which helps  increase collagen production and helps keep your skin looking youthful. So, Dash says, “By eating an avocado a day, you will age slower!  FACTS!”

Of course, avocados can be enjoyed on their own, but to sneak avocado into your diet in more exciting ways – the options are endless.

Avocado toast is a go-to option, add it to your salad, indulge in that extra guac, make your smoothie creamier with avocado instead of banana, or even make a raw vegan pudding with avocado and cacao (if you’re feeling adventurous or really want to mask the taste if you’re not a fan). Your skin will thank you!
