The best sources are blackcurrants, blueberries, broccoli, guava, kiwi fruits, oranges, papaya, strawberries and sweet potatoes

3.Omega-3

4 WORST FOODS FOR YOUR SKIN

>With the skin being your largest organ, the skin performs three main functions: protection, regulation and sensation. It is very important that we pay attention to our skin. Getting a healthy skin isn't all about using the best and expensive lotions there is, it’s also about eating the right foods which internally will make your skin healthy and youthful to last you a lifetime. When you go through this blog /site, you will realize I have quite a few articles on how to maintain a healthy skin in an organic way see http://webfuntaiment.blogspot.com/2017/02/how-to-get-youthful-skin-using.html,
Today we look at 4 worst foods for your skin.

1. PROCESSED BEVERAGES, ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS, COLORING AND FLAVORINGS
The term Processed food applies to any food that has been altered from its natural state in some way, either for safety reasons or convenience.
Most processed foods especially fruit juices just to name a few that we see on the market does not actually contain real fruits juice, these beverages are just water, lots of sugar, artificial color and flavor. Eating the real fruit like pawpaw and coconut will actually benefit your skin than buying processed pawpaw or coconut drink which might have no nutrients all.
Not all processed food is a bad choice. Some foods need processing to make them safe, such as milk, which needs to be pasteurized to remove harmful bacteria. Other foods need processing to make them suitable for use, such as pressing seeds to make oil.



2. PROCESSED MEAT
With industrial farming methods, animals are frequently fed a Dosages of growth hormones steroids, and inorganic antibiotics.  These farm animals aren’t fed their natural herbivore diet, but rather are stuffed with chemical foods to make them fatter and grow faster, not healthier. When we eat these animals, by default, we get a dose of their diet. These compounds can create hormonal imbalances in our bodies, which can lead to acne and inflammation. Additionally, animal meats in general are more difficult on our digestive systems, and if we aren’t getting enough water and fiber in our diets, meats can get stuck in our digestive system, where they decay and cause us to fall sick.


3. NON-ORGANIC FOODS
Non-organic food can contain pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and other chemicals which 80% of the time is and can be harmful to our health and effect show symptoms on our skin. Certain pesticides and fertilizers have been found to have links to a variety of diseases and health conditions. Our bodies don’t recognize these chemicals and they often create an inflammatory response. Eating organic foods provides your body with necessary nutrient which are the building blocks of a healthy complexion that our body needs, the better our skin will look and perform.




4. HYDROGENATED FATS AND FRIED FOODS
What is a hydrogenated fat?
Hydrogenated fats are unnatural fats that are detrimental to your health. Food fats naturally occur in three general types: Saturated (e.g., butter, lard, coconut oil) Monounsaturated (e.g., olive or canola oils) Oils that sit and are used over again, like the vat your French fries are cooked in, are really bad, because these fats are thicker and don’t detox from the body. They can contribute to heart disease, poor circulation of the blood and a weakened metabolic process. Since healthy skin requires healthy circulation and metabolism, weak systems can lead to a lack of oxygen in the skin, slowing the collagen and elastic syntheses necessary for youthful radiance.

6 FOODS YOU SHOULDN'T REFRIGERATE



When it comes to storing food, there is always conflicting advice. we like to treat the fridge as a safe-haven for all things food and drink, You might have grown up seeing your mum put all kinds of in the fridge - only to be told by a friend or YouTube  years later that that's not right. Putting these foods into the fridge won’t cause you any harm; however, it can certainly cause a nuisance for your palate as textures and tastes become ruined to avoid removing the taste from your food, here are some seven foods you shouldn’t put into the fridge. Let me know if you agree or disagree with the advice given 



No.1 Bread
Breads don’t tend to do that well being stored in the fridge .Bread dries out and goes stale much more quickly in the fridge, which isn't what you want when you bite into your lunchtime sandwich.
Try storing it in a cool, dry place. A bread bin or bread bags would be a good start.






No.2 Tomatoes
The biggest problem with storing tomatoes in the fridge is that the cold temperature begins to play havoc, altering the taste and texture
Refrigerating tomatoes actually damages the membrane inside the fruit
Have u ever had a salad with that tomato that tasted bit watery and icy, Chances are those tomatoes have been in cold storage for a while.
There’s no need refrigerating tomatoes if u will use it in a few days. Leave it on the counter and it will develop more flavor over that few days.



No.3 Onions
Apparently onions do best in dry, well-ventilated areas. What's more, if they're in the fridge they could taint the taste of your other groceries. Remember to keep them in a dark place or they'll start sprouting







No.4 Potatoes
Potatoes are the one food you should never, ever store in the fridge .the cold temperature generally starts to break down the starch within potatoes; therefore, refrigerating it will leave you with a sweet or gritty potato, which rarely tastes good at this stage no matter what you do with it.






No.5 Avocado
There's nothing more annoying and depressing than an unripe avocado. Well, keeping it in the fridge isn't going to help. Apparently the cool temperature hinders the ripening process. Avocado is from tropical climates and their cells have no natural defense against the cold
I recommends you keep them in 'brown open bags' to ripen





No.6 HONEY
A 1000 year old honey, will still be as fresh as the day it was harvested –honey a naturally preserved food. Putting honey into the fridge will increase the speed of the sugar crystallization which turns it into an almost dough-like form, making for a hard time to scoop out.
