BEST ACNE FACIAL OROVILLE 916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC
Clear skin begins with a clean diet. Although, it may take years to completely embrace healthful eating habits, juicing is a great place to start. Here are the top 12 fruits, vegetables and herbs for juicing that promote healthy clear skin.
Cranberries: Here's an old wives' tale that actually has some research behind it: cranberries contain a compound called proanthocyanidins, which can help prevent UTIs by getting bacteria out of your urinary tract.
Kale: This vegetable is full of health benefits, including iron and folate. If kale is a bit intense for you, try spinach instead: it's easier to blend smoothly because it's not as tough, and it's a bit sweeter.
Pineapples: This tropical fruit is said to help with protein digestion, thanks to the presence of an enzyme called bromelain.
Blueberries: These little blue berries are filled with antioxidants, the kind that make wine good for our hearts. Other berries like raspberries and strawberries are also a healthy choice for juices.
Cabbage: Surprised? Cabbage is actually a popular juice ingredient due to its water content, its low cost, and its vitamin C and folate.
Celery: You may have written celery off, but it's actually a good way to get extra potassium in your diet, and its high water content makes it an ideal vegetable for juicing.
Carrots: The humble carrot is popular for a reason other than its great taste: it's full of beta-carotene, which our bodies turn into vitamin A. They're also a good juice base because their natural sweetness can help to mask stronger-tasting ingredients like kale or wheatgrass.
Wheatgrass: Ever wonder what those grassy tasting shots are supposed to do for you? These grasses contain vitamins like C, E, and K. It's hard to digest, though, because of its high cellulose content: start small when adding it to your diet.
Lemon: Nutritionists say that lemons are an alkalizing fruit that will help to counteract the effects of acidity in the body. They also contain vitamin C, which will help with the absorption of non-heme iron from vegetables like spinach and kale.
Beets: Beets are sweeter than you might expect them to be, making them a delicious choice for juices and smoothies. They're also a good source of antioxidants, including lutein and zeaxanthin. Include the beet leaves when you're blending the veggie up: they've got iron, calcium, and beta-carotene!
Cucumbers: This fruit is perfect in the summer as a refreshing, cool-tasting base for juices and smoothies.
Stinging Nettles: Stinging nettles don't feel very good against your skin, but they're good in your belly: they contain iron, vitamin C, and potassium, among other nutrients. You can also boil them to make an infusion and drink it like tea.
Consuming foods or bevies that are cultured with good bacteria can improve digestion and skin that is riddled with acne. L. acidophilus is a milk fermenting bacterium that has the ability to colonize the gut wall under the right conditions. Bacteria, good or bad, are usually killed by hydrochloric acid, bile or body temperature that isn't warm enough to encourage their growth, but they still provide the perk of making antibiotics that destroy and displace dangerous microbes. A probiotic every day helps keep acne at bay!
