Is it possible to eat for beautiful skin?

The nutritionist answers: It has no proven effect

“Today we don’t have direct nutritional advice for improving skin. What matters is a nutritious diet and plenty of fluids. Plus, as I write, there are supplements that are said to be able to positively affect the skin.

Collagen is a protein that builds hair and nails and makes skin soft and smooth. Collagen production decreases as we age, leading to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and reduced sagging skin. Studies have not yet proven that collagen can be taken for better skin, although a lot of research is currently underway.

You’ll find collagen in meat, soy products, red berries, vegetables, and nuts. Vitamins A and C can boost collagen in the skin. Invest in fruits and vegetables and you’ll see if they have an effect.

Collagen supplements are harmless if you want to try them, but I would probably advise you to try the diet first.”
