do with the food and nutrients you put into your body.

help fight age related damage.

1. Strawberries
Strawberries have more anti aging vitamin C per serving than oranges or grapefruit.
people who eat foods rich in vitamin C have fewer wrinkles and less age related dry
skin than those who don't.
I would say strawberries are natural botox. ^^
Vitamin C fights free radicals, which damage cells and break down collagen, leading
to fine lines. For smoother, better hydrated skin, a natural berry mask once or twice a
week, and eat Vitamin C rich foods daily.
2. The olive oil
The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of olive oil don't just benefit you on
the inside they soften your skin, too.
When used topically, olive oil results in smoother, more radiant skin. Plus, consuming
olive oil, a staple in the healthy Mediterranean diet, provides antioxidants to disarm
free radicals and reduce inflammation.
3. Green tea
Curling Up to a cup of green tea does a lot more than relax you. Green tea is filled
with inflammation fighting antioxidants.
Drinking green tea may reduce your risk of skin cancer. And when you add a
generous squeeze of citrus juice, the tea's antioxidants get a boost of staying power,
so they remain in and benefit the body longer, rather than being digested quickly
and having much of the goodness go down the drain.
4. Avocado
While using avocado directly on the face is a popular natural beauty treatment, many
people have found that just eating avocado regularly can do wonders for their
complexion.
5. Salmon
Omega 3 fatty acids in Salmon specifically have been shown to help reduce
inflammation and signs of aging in the body.
These good fats also help protect against and repair damage from the sun, and are
responsible for the health and hydration of cell membranes, which are your skin's
gatekeepers, keeping toxins out and helping skin retain its healthy, soft, and supple
appearance.
