8. Flaxseed
Robin Evans, MD, a board-certified dermatologist in private practice in Stamford, Connecticut, keeps her skin healthy and body well by adding flaxseed to her morning breakfast, often to a bowl of fruit, such as organic berries, papaya, and pomegranate.
“Flaxseed is rich in omega-3 fats and provides powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits, making it one of the superfood seeds everyone should eat. It’s great for the gut and helps as a vegetarian and natural way to encourage regular bowel movements as well,” Dr. Evans says.
