Skin
Around our mid-twenties, our skin starts to produce less collagen. Thanks to this, wrinkles, fine lines, and dark spots begin to show on our faces and bodies. If you’ve taken down all the calendars and tried stopping the clocks, you know this method of controlling time doesn’t work! No matter how many beauty products you put on, your diet impacts your skin. But in the wintertime, we can use some extra help!
Instead of creams, we recommend aging beautifully by slowing down the process of collagen loss and preserving current collagen levels. Much of how our skin functions come from our body’s production of hormones and proteins. So why seafood? By adding seafood to your diet, you can fuel the largest organ in your body, your skin, with beneficial nutrients like omega-3s, B vitamins, and amino acids. Fish have an ample supply of amino acids that act as building blocks for our existing collagen levels.
Eating seafood helps contain moisture in the skin. Your skin’s natural glow is affected more by what you eat than what you apply to it. The omega-3 in seafood protects your skin against UV rays, and recent research suggests fish oil can help reduce acne.
