• Fine lines and wrinkles caused when an excess

intake of sugar and simple carbohydrates like white

bread and baked goods are consumed. Causes

AGES to be produced

• AGE’s destroy antioxidants which protect us against

free radicals and help to fight inflammation.

• Excess sugar also signals your hormones to make

your skin glands work in overdrive, creating blocked

pores and oily skin.

AGES – ADVANCED

GLYCATION END PRODUCTS

ALKALINE + ACID FOODS

• If the organs are compromised as a result of an

acidic diet, then it can lead to eczema, dermatitis,

rashes and breakouts.

• The standard Australian diet is primarily composed

of acidic or acidifying foods such as meat, cheese,

grains and cereals, sugars and stimulants like

tobacco, coffee, tea and alcohol.

• Alkaline foods such as vegetables, are eaten in

much smaller quantities and their alkaline content is

insufficient to neutralize surplus acids, which leads

to an acidic pH in the body.

10 TOP SKIN FOODS

LUKBEAUTIFOOD.COM

SKINFOOD

#1 Beetroot

z www.lukbeautifood.com z

Beetroot can support your liver and help flush your lymphatic system which can whiten your eyes. As a natural colon cleanser

beets can remove toxins and congestion from your body to clear your skin. Skin-loving minerals including iron, potassium and zinc

help cell regeneration and the antioxidant betacyanin will help alleviate a red puffy complexion by fighting inflammation.

SKINFOOD

#2 Papaya


Papaya is one of 2 fruits that contains the digestive enzyme papain, valuable for aiding digestion, and a healthy digestive system

means smooth, clear skin. The antioxidant vitamin C helps restore skin elasticity by helping to manufacture collagen your skin

cells scaffolding, without it your skin collapses and wrinkles form. And the orange colour shows vitamin A is present – a fabulous

fat soluble vitamin known for preventing dry skin.


SKINFOOD

#3 Parsley

Parsley & parsley seeds have been credited with being a potent detoxifier and diuretic, helping to prevent bloating and water

retention by flushing out the kidneys. It works by blocking the re-absorption of sodium and potassium causing more water to flow

via osmosis. It is rich in skin loving vitamins A, C & E and minerals such as folate and iron to help maintain a healthy glow and

smooth soft skin.


SKIN FOOD

#4 Lemons & Limes

A fabulous every day beauty food you can fight wrinkles and cellulite with. Vitamin C is a co-factor in the production of collagen,

without it your skin will collapse and form lines. Make sure you consume the rind as it contains the essential oils that are believed

to dissolve and detoxify the old solidified fatty skin cells (cellulite). The best time to eat low sugar citrus (lemons, limes &

grapefruit) is in the morning on an empty stomach.


SKIN FOOD

#5 Darky leafy Greens - spinach, watercress, rocket

Dark Green leaves are top wrinkle fighting vegetables due to the high beauty nutrient content of Vitamin A,C, K, calcium, iron, fibre

and iron. Iron is important for firm, tight skin as it allows your skin to repair and regenerate properly by carrying more oxygen to the

tissues. The rich source of vitamin A promotes soft, smooth healthy skin by allowing for proper moisture retention. Highly alkaline,

dark green leaves help cleanse and neutralise acidic waste in the blood & lymphatic system. Cleansing waste helps prevent toxic

overload, a pre-curser to skin outbreaks.


SKIN FOOD

#6 Sprouts

Sprouts are live food, estimated to contain upto100 times more enzymes that the comparative grown, uncooked vegetable,

enzymes help to even out skin tone. Fenugreek sprouts as an example are a rich source of antioxidants that can delay ageing

signs like wrinkles, crows feet and fine lines. They are known to cool the digestive system and relieve constipation which is one of

the reasons behind acne thus effectively helping to attain a smooth, blemish free skin.


SKIN FOOD

#7 Onions & Garlic

Onions are fabulous for digestive health and detoxification which creates clear glowing complexion. They contain the pre-biotics

fructans and have potent anti-bacterial properties to stimulate the activity of good bacteria. Flavonoids stimulate the production of

glutathione - the most important and powerful antioxidant the liver uses for detoxification. Garlic has proven anti-inflammatory

properties and has been used to relieve psoriasis.


SKIN FOOD

#8 oats

Rich in fibre and beta-glucan that regulate blood sugar levels and therefore reduces the glycation (breakdown) of elastin &

collagen – 2 key proteins that provide the elasticity and scaffolding to skin. Being high in fiber, they play a key role in a long-term

anti-cellulite program. Fiber helps move and clear out toxins that will be released from fat cells, so that they don’t re-circulate

around the body and turn into cellulite.


SKINFOOD

#9 Ginger & Turmeric

Turmeric and ginger help stimulate the circulation, reduce inflammation, aid digestion, elimination and boost the immune system.

The antioxidant gingerol which fights skin damaging free radicals can help promote a brighter, firmer more youthful appearance

whilst the active curcumin in turmeric fights skin-inflammation . So, if you suffer redness, rashes or skin puffiness, turmeric is one

of the best known remedies used to reduce the recovery time of various skin afflictions.


SKIN FOOD

#10 Brassica family eg Kale & Cabbage

Kale is a major body strengthening food packed with a plethora of nutrients in extremely high levels. Its high fibre makes sure you

are expelling wastes and components that assist the detoxification process. Like traditional cabbage it contains sulphur to create

enzymes to help your liver detoxify cancer causing issues in your body.
