Get Glowing Healthy on the Inside
To neutralize free radical damage it is favourable to have
an antioxidant system of vitamins, minerals, essentially fatty
acids, and enzymes working for you. A diet that includes antioxidant
rich, raw foods (such as avocado, sweet peppers, berries,
melons, green leafy vegetables, oranges, squash, tomatoes
and pineapples) is key to glowing healthy from the inside-out!
Remember to eat foods rich in essential fatty acids: freshly
ground flax seeds sprinkled over your salad or in a smoothy,
avocado in a salad or blended soup, or virgin olive oil mixed
with some lemon juice to create a flavourful dressing.
Collagen gives skin its firmness and elasticity. Without
collagen skin sags, wrinkles, and looks aged. Avocado has
substances that are high in vitamins A, D, and E. Rich in
essential fatty acids avocados help prevent damaged skin.
 There
are two essential fatty acids:
Alpha-Linolenic acid (LNA) or Omega 3 is found in abundance
in hemp seed, flax seed, pumpkin seed, walnuts, and dark green
leaves.
Linoleic acid (LA) or Omega 6 is found in abundance in safflower,
hemp, walnut, pumpkin, sesame, sunflower, and flax.
