Omega Fatty Acids Offer Many Beauty Benefits

Your diet is important for every system in your body, including your skin.  Eating a balanced diet is essential for overall health and wellness yet some foods are more beneficial for your skin than others.

One of the most popular “foods for the skin” and overall health are those foods containing high levels of omega fatty acids.  Also known as EFA’s or essential fatty acids, these omega 3s are found in foods like fish including wild salmon, tuna, and halibut as well as flax seeds and oil, avacados, and grape leaves.  They provide benefits for the skin such as improved circulation, reduced inflammation and redness, increased hydration, and even help to delay the physical aging process.

Deciding where to get your Essential Fatty Acids is important.  Fish is often farm raised with antibiotics or can contain mercury which can cause hormonal challenges so we recommend you opt for organic sources of fish.  In case you don’t enjoy eating nuts or fish, there are other options to get omega fatty acids in your body internally.  Most health stores offer fish and nut oils in capsule or liquid options which are much more palatable.   Read the label for dosages so you don’t drink too much and look closely to make sure no synthetic fillers are used.

These amazing omega 3 fatty acids achieve beautiful skin both by being eaten and by being used topically.   Skin care products like those made by Sevani utilize essential fatty acids in their natural and organic skin care creams and serums to make reaping the benefits of EFAs easy.  Look for ingredients like Argan Oil, Evening Primrose Oil and Kukui Nut Oil to get the best natural omega 3 fatty acids for your skin.

Through eating the right types of food you are able to look good outside as well as inside. However, you also should combine eating these beneficial foods with other important daily habits. Try drinking plenty of water. This way, you can rehydrate yourself from the inside out to help prevent dry skin and encourage a youthful glow. You should also add exercise as well as daily meditation to you improved diet in order to facilitate your pursuit of a healthier and more beautiful you.
