You are what you eat! We’ve all heard it before but it’s true. What food you put in your body has an impact not just on your health, but also the look of your hair, skin, and nails. Eating the right foods means your body is getting the nutrients it needs.
If you are looking for smooth healthy beautiful skin, the first place you need to start is your diet. Sweet Potatoes are a great source of vitamin A and beta carotene!
These tasty tubers are not only delicious but they’re super healthy and are a great for dry skin remedy. “This root vegetable—don’t forget to eat the skin—packs a double dose of skin-protecting nutrients, including vitamin A and beta carotene,” says Alex Roher, MD, a physician in San Diego. Why it works: Vitamin A aids in skin repair, while beta carotene strengthens the skin’s protective barrier, helping to moisturize and plump up skin cells.
