Vitamin A has antioxidant properties and maintains moisture for eyes, skin and mucous membranes. Vitamin E is essential for healthy, smooth and younger looking skin.

YOGURT
Since yogurt is a dairy product, all the benefits of milk also hold true for yogurt. Yogurt contains friendly bacteria, which aids in digestion, improves the immune system and (when used as a mask) can help hydrate and cleanse the skin.

GARLIC
The effects of garlic have been widely known for centuries, but only recently taken seriously by modern science. In studies, potent food has been shown to reduce blood pressure, lower cholesterol and even prevent cancer.

If you can’t stand the pungent smell or taste, take it in capsule.

CHOCOLATE
Alright already! So chocolate isn’t the most health-conscious food on the planet. However, chocolate does have positive effects on your mood by pumping up your ‘feel-good’ hormones (endorphins and serotonin), which help to give you an overall calm and pleasant feeling. And when you feel good, you look good. Now isn’t that a good excuse to eat chocolate?
