Eat your fruits and vegetables.
Everyone knows that fruits and vegetables are very healthy, but did you know that they can also contribute to improving your skin and making you look younger than you actually are? Yes, an apple a day can keep the doctor away, but it can also make your skin look fabulous.
Plus, they’re very delicious, which is a bonus. Red fruits in general, such as strawberries, apples, cherries, watermelon, and red vegetables such as tomatoes are known to protect your skin against UV rays, thanks to lycopene.
Lycopene is a carotenoid that will help you prevent wrinkles and dark spots after sun exposure. So, fruits and vegetables are not just healthy, they’re also anti-aging, so it’s important to include them in your day-to-day lifestyle.
Also, eating them will promote longer, healthier life, and prevent cognitive problems.
