Fresh, raw foods brimming with vital nutrients contribute to a healthy body. In addition to being safer, the benefits of raw ingredients far exceed those of processed, chemical-laden commercial beauty products. Making raw foods a part of your diet will help enhance both health and beauty, but they can also be used topically for skin and hair care. Does this Spark an idea?
Fruits
Antioxidant-rich fruits such as berries, apricots, prunes, grapes and avocados help keep skin looking young, while the silicon in apples, oranges and cherries will keep both skin and hair strong. Some, such as avocados, can be used topically to moisturize skin and add shine to hair.
Vegetables
Packed with minerals, vegetables such as cabbage, squash, bell peppers, spinach and cucumbers keep skin clear, smooth and soft.
Yogurt
Probiotics in yogurt help keep the digestive system healthy and healthier digestion leads to better absorption of nutrients and expulsion of toxins, which leads to clearer skin and overall better health. Yogurt can also be used topically to moisturize skin, lighten blemishes and condition hair.
Honey
Full of enzymes, antioxidants and minerals, honey's healing properties have been prized for thousands of years. Honey can help promote clear skin when eaten and can be used topically as a moisturizer and to heal wounds.
Olive Oil
Boasting at least four different antioxidants, olive oil can do wonders for the skin both internally and topically. Olive oil is an excellent skin moisturizer and an effective deep conditioning treatment for hair.
