Nutrition as a source of natural beauty

As mentioned, even a diet that is based on correct principles can directly affect the appearance of the skin, hair and the entire body. Simple changes in diet can lead to a dramatic improvement in appearance and health. After years of serving as a personal nutritionist for quite a few stars in Israel and around the world, some of the leading beauticians and even some plastic surgeons, I have gathered proven natural methods for proper skin and hair care.

One of the most important principles is to include in the diet foods rich in vitamins such as vitamin C, biotin and antioxidants. These components contribute to increasing collagen production, help reduce inflammation and delay the signs of skin aging. On the other hand, it is important to avoid processed food and reduce sugar consumption as much as possible. It is important to consume a protein-rich menu to maintain normal muscle mass, which combines lots of vegetables, healthy fats (such as: avocado, tahini, olive oil, nuts and seeds), a little fruit and a little complex carbohydrates.

Lemon adds vitamin C and encourages the production of collagen, which helps maintain the elasticity and shine of the skin, the lemon also helps satiety and also makes drinking easier for those who have difficulty drinking a lot of water.
• Metabolic drink: drinking a drink with cayenne pepper, lemon and apple cider vinegar in the morning helps to stimulate the metabolism and cleans the skin.
