Eating Carrots for Beautiful Skin
Carrots are a powerfood that has important vitamins like vitamin A that benefits our skin. The word "carrot" comes from the greek word "karoton" which is where we get beta- carotene. Beta-carotene is the substance that makes carrots orange and it acts as an antioxidant. Consuming antioxidant are a necessary tool for radiant skin and fighting the signs of aging.
Deficiencies in vitman A can cause dry skin, hair, and nails. If you're experiencing excessive dryness a vitamin deficency could be the reason and no amount of cream, conditioner etc.. will help solve that. Try eating more carrots and if that doesn't help ask your doctor about testing for vitamin deficiency. Vitaman A also prevents premature wrinkling, blemishes, acne, and uneven skin tone.
The nutrition in carrots are encased in protein sacs that have to be broken down by heat or mechanical action like proper chewing juicing and grinding.
Check out my favorite carrot soup recipe.
You can also make a super easy carrot facial mask. Here's the simple recipe.
Easy Carrot and Honey Facial Mask
1 Large Carrot
2 Teaspoons Honey
Grate or boil 1 large carrot until soft enough to mash ( make sure to let cool completely before apply to face if you choose to boil it. ) then add honey. Leave on 15 minutes then rinse.
If you have blemishes try our potent Blemish Minimizing Serum it's packed with great ingredients like tea tree oil and vitamin A, E, and C which helps calm down breakouts.
