Nutrition For Dry Skin


Olive Oil For Dandruff- Fact or Fiction?

The type of food that provides excellent nutrition for dry skin is, based on my personal experiences and research, that of a lower protein with plenty of fruits and vegetables diet.

After reading up on many medical journals, magazines and searching on the internet for various dry skin care tips and nutrition advice for dry skin, I switched to a lower protein intake, with the aim of improving my skin texture.

Here's a list of food that works for my dry skin.

  • Broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower

  • Toufu, beans

  • Oily fish sucha as salmon and mackerel ( I love fish! )

  • Garlic, onions, eggs, asparagus

  • Oranges, strawberries

  • Water, and plenty of them

  • Wholemeal breads

  • Seeds and nuts

And here's a list of things that I avoid (Bad for dry skin).

  • Fried foods

  • Processed vegetable oils

  • Sugar, caffeine, tea, soft drinks

  • Dairy produce such as milk and cheese

  • Smoking

Within weeks of making more effort to eat more greens and fruits, my dry skin has clear up significantly. Drinking more water also helps. For starters, I suggest you start writing down the meal you have taken, say over a week.

From there you'll start to see your meal intake pattern. Make use of the list to make healthier choices for yourself, adopt the right dry skin diet and choose only food that will not worsen your dry skin
