Top 5 Beauty Foods for Fall

beauty-foodsEating a healthy diet and maintain a balanced lifestyle are essential for keeping your skin and hair looking young, and experts agree that there are certain foods that can make your skin glow and stay radiant season after season.

The Fall and winter months may call for some changes to your diet, so make sure you’re packing a nutritious punch into each meal with the following nine beauty foods:

1. Pears. Pears are a great Fall fruit to add to your diet, and can be enjoyed as a snack, dessert, or even as part of breakfast. Pears are rich in antioxidants and vitamins, and can be a great change of pace from your daily apple habit.

2. Walnuts. Walnuts are rich in alpha linoeic acid, an essential nutrient for maintaining healthy skin. You can sprinkle walnuts into your granola or oatmeal in the morning, or add it to muffins and other Fall treats for a boost of nutrition.

3. Pumpkin. Whether you enjoy it straight from the can or mix it into your baked goods, pumpkin is a great way to boost your nutrition count this season. Pumpkin is full of beta carotene and other antioxidants, and is a nutritious filler ingredient for muffins, cakes and other treats this season.

4. Dark chocolate. Bring on the dark chocolate to enjoy a dose of antioxidants – and a quick mood lift. The darker and purer, the better.

5. Spinach. Load up on the leafy greens this season to add vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to your weekly meals. Both fresh and cooked spinach have a number of health ahd beauty benefits, and you can incorporate this vegetable into almost any dish.

If your skin needs a refresher for the season, don’t miss out out on the chance to get gorgeous with an antioxidant facial or moisturizing body treatment. Many Orlando day spas are offering decadent treatments just for the Fall and winter season so that you can maintain that healthy glow.

Combine your spa regimen with a diet full of these top beauty foods to keep your skin glowing and healthy all season long!
