Superfoods for Superskin

While we continue to slather on creams, a growing body of evidence is pointing to the fact that the path to younger-looking skin might just be through your stomach. “Nutrition and diet has a huge impact,” confirms Dr Vicki Kotsirilos, founder of the Australasian Integrative Medicine Association. “Science shows that high-GI foods contribute to skin problems such as acne and eczema—a low-GI diet with less-processed food is better for your complexion.” Nutritionist Dr Joanna McMillan agrees: “There’s little point spending money on topical products if you’re not feeding skin from the inside-out.” Make the most of your skin-stomach connection with these surprisingly powerful superfoods.
