Ellen's Food Rxs For Beautiful Skin!

                      Great Looking Skin From Food Sources! 

Courtney Cox is making the rounds, this past Friday she was on Jay Leno,
and today, she was on Ellen.
Of course the subject of cosmetic surgery, chemical peels
and aging skin came up.
Ellen who has a birthday coming up- admitted that she too, has
some body flaws. Ellen also knew that the skin on one's neck, 

elbows, hands and around the eyes is very thin, therefore aging more 
quickly.
If you are a decade or two younger than Ellen and Courtney and want to keep 

your skin looking it's best, eat some of the foods that'll keep your skin looking
10 to 15 yrs younger.

The Foods For Youthful Skin:
a) Go Nuts-
Some walnuts and almonds each day will give your skin a healthy
glow. Nuts contain essential fatty acids that keep skin cells fluid

and flexible.
b) Seafood-
A few salmon, trout or halibut dinners will give you smoother
and softer skin. Credit goes to the omega-3 fatty acids that hydrate
skin and flakes from blocking pores.
c) Soy Milk-
Drinking a cup of soy milk a day will help repair problem skin.
Soy milk has estrogen and it (estrogen) stimulates connective
tissue and regenerates your skin.
Important tip: Soy isn't for everyone, if it causes problems
for your digestive system, skip it.
d) More Liquids- 

Do you drink an adequate amount of water each day? 
Well, you don't have to drink 10 glasses of water each day,
get some liquid refreshment from melon, honeydew, watermelon, 

cucumber and cantaloupe. Keeping skin from drying out is very important,
so make sure to eat the above fruits and drink some water each day.
e) More Oil-
If you read our post- "Cougar Town's Rxs For Youthful Hands"
then you already know about the importance of oils.
Olive, walnut and avocado oils help keep skin moist, smooth
and plumped up. Use these oils to saute, stir-fry, in salads
and pestos and use it topically. Apply some to your body,
face, neck, hands, elbows and knees after a shower or bath.
f) Kiwi Please- 

Often overlooked as a fruit that can help keep smooth and blemish-free. 
One researcher says that 2 kiwis a day can help remove age spots
and moisturize skin from the inside out.
How powerful is Kiwi? A woman (a school teacher) wanted something
natural to help her prevent the number of colds she was bound to get
in the new school yr. 

A relative suggested Kiwi, she ate 2 a day, starting in Aug. and by
the end of Summer, noticed a few changes. The changes:
the undereye circles under her eyes disappeared and she didn't
have to cake her makeup on like she usually did. So, in addition
to helping her stay cold-free, she had a smoother and more youthful
complexion.

That's it- Although this list may not do much for Ellen
or Courtney, it's not to late for you... a 20 or 30 something.

Good Luck!
