Beauty starts in the kitchen

You are what you eat!  Beauty starts in the kitchen from the inside out.

A few food facts:

6 leaves of romaine lettuce each day provides Vitamin A to revitalize your skin.

Eating red helps your skin from turning red - eat tomatoes!

1 cup of strawberries, 130% of Vitamin C.  Strawberries also help your skin from sagging. 

Apples (and their peel) help protect you from UVB rays.

Soy improves wrinkles and firmness (edamame).

Eggs contain 2 antioxidants that help to shield UV damage and provide hydration for your skin.

Dark chocolate hot chocoa rejuvenates your complexion.

I know what I'm eating today!!  Have a fabulous Friday!

Hi Happy,

I'm with you!  I am NO Martha Stewart by any means.  Although I can chop a few veggies and get the benefits of beauty in the kitchen.

Thanks for posting here.  You are always so enlightening and motivational!

Hugs, Cathy

Hi Jmille28,

I know!!  Usually most of these types of lists contain weird things you've never find in the grocery store much less want to eat.  I like all of these things so I was excited to post here and share.

I'm having a salad (love romaine) and strawberries!!

Thanks, Cathy
