What’s the fun in a skincare routine if you can’t eat it? Well, okay—it’s not that inedible cosmetics are entirely useless, but combining self-care and yummy snacks is definitely a preferred option. So next time you’re out grocery shopping, keep in mind these three foods that both your taste buds and your skin will enjoy.

Blueberries

Skin benefits: Filled with antioxidants, these delicious blue marbles are great for your skin. Blueberries promote collagen production, enhance skin texture, and protect against premature aging.

On the plate: Add a handful of blueberries to your morning yogurt or oatmeal, toss them into salads, or blend them into a refreshing smoothie. They also work wonderfully in muffin and pancake batters.

Avocado

Skin benefits: Packed with nutritious treasures, avocados work wonders to hydrate and rejuvenate the skin. The omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E help keep it soft and even undo acne damage!

On the plate: There are so many things you can do with avocado. From trendy avocado toasts and classic guacamole to rich salads, smoothies, and even chocolate mousse—go wild.

Salmon

Skin benefits: You might find the idea of using salmon for skincare purposes odd, but its abundance of omega-3 fatty acids, astaxanthin, and valuable vitamins make it ideal for the part. These nutrients help produce a radiant complexion and enhance skin elasticity.

It’s the season to be merry, but what you don’t want is a raging hangover the next morning. The best way to help that is by eating the correct food beforehand. It’s important to give your body a chance to recover quickly, rehydrate, and balance your blood sugar levels. Here are four foods to eat before you go out drinking.

Healthy Fats

Fatty foods stay in your stomach for longer which helps slow down the absorption of alcohol in your blood, but that doesn’t mean you should eat a lot of fried foods. Try to eat more healthy fats like salmon and avocados to feel full and ward off the hangover.

Foods That Support the Liver

Adding some turmeric, cinnamon, kale, lemon, and beetroot to your meal is a great way to help support your liver and if you will be drinking alcohol make sure to eat plenty of these.

Slow Releasing Carbohydrates

If you want to keep balanced blood sugar levels while you are drinking, avoid salty snacks as they can dehydrate you, and eat more slow-releasing carbohydrates. Olives, nuts, bread, and chickpea dip are all great for slowing down the absorption of alcohol and easing your hangover the next day.

Fruit

If you do wake up with a slight hangover then fruit is your best friend, it will hydrate you and replace the vitamins you lost. A smoothie with bananas will restore your electrolytes and fruits like watermelon will hydrate you, so throw it all into a blender and enjoy.

A baked fillet of salmon is one of the greatest delights you can enjoy as a pescatarian. It goes great with lots of things, but serving it with boiled potatoes and Hollandaise sauce is hard to beat. Here’s how to make this dish.

Ingredients:

  • 2 salmon fillets
  • Fresh parsley
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 1 pound of new potatoes
  • 2 medium eggs
  • 1 tablespoon of water
  • 1 large knob of unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Salt
  • Black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to a medium-high heat. Place your salmon in a baking tray on baking paper and drizzle some olive oil and a bit of lemon juice, and add some salt and black pepper to your fillets. Your salmon will need around 15 minutes in the oven.
  2. Meanwhile, peel any nasty bits on your potatoes and boil in heavily salted water for about 15 minutes. You will know they are done if it is easy to stick a fork in them.
  3. To make your Hollandaise sauce, begin by beating your eggs in a heatproof bowl, and mix in your water and lemon juice. Put your bowl over a pan of simmering water. Whisk the egg mixture continuously as you add your butter into the mix. Keep whisking until the sauce thickens. If you overheat the mixture, the eggs will start to scramble. Add salt to taste.
  4. Once your salmon and potatoes are cooked and your sauce is made, simply drain your potatoes, add some fresh parsley to your salmon, and you are ready to serve. This dish will go great with samphire or tenderstem broccoli which will add some freshness as well as color.

Omega 3 fatty acids have secured widespread recognition for their numerous health benefits and for good reason. Omega 3 is widely known for maintaining physical well-being and is associated with improving heart and brain health. Keep reading to find out why omega 3 is so good for you and a short list of food sources to incorporate into your diet.

Heart Health

Omega 3s are most commonly known as a heart disease preventative as they help lower triglycerides, reduce inflammation, improve blood flow, and reduce blood pressure. A great well-known, and delicious food source is fatty fish such as salmon and sardines. Aim to include at least two servings of fatty fish a week in your diet.

Brain Health

Omega 3s are also associated with lowering the risk of Alzheimer’s disease and improving overall cognitive function. A great source is fish oil supplements, fatty fish, or flaxseed.

Eye Health

Perhaps commonly less known is that Omegas are also associated with improving eye health by reducing the risk of age-associated degeneration in the retina. Increasing your intake of omegas has many positive effects, especially as you age. Aim for at least 2 servings a week of fatty fish, and sprinkle flaxseeds, chia seeds, or hemp seeds on yogurt, in smoothies, or in puddings for additional sources of omega 3s.

If you’re looking to take your health to the next level, superfoods can be a great way to do that. It is true that superfoods have become somewhat of a buzzword as of late, but beyond all the hoopla there really is a lot of merit to their nutrition content. So what exactly are superfoods, and why are they so incredibly healthy?

They Boost Immunity

The first thing to note about superfoods is that they’re incredibly helpful when it comes to boosting immunity. Spinach and garlic, for instance, have plenty of antioxidants, which help strengthen your immune system, protecting your body against all kinds of illnesses in the process.

They Enhance Brain Function

When you eat delicious superfoods such as avocados, walnuts, and even something as delicious as dark chocolate, you’re actually enhancing the health of your brain. This is because these foods have fatty acids and antioxidants that improve cognitive function, not to mention focus and memory.

They Improve Heart Health

Finally, another excellent reason that superfoods are so good for you is that they do wonders for your heart health. Salmon, for instance, contains stores of omega-3, which helps lower your cholesterol, thus reducing your chances of heart disease.

Fatty foods stay in your stomach for longer which helps slow down the absorption of alcohol in your blood, but that doesn’t mean you should eat a lot of fried foods. Try to eat more healthy fats like salmon and avocados to feel full and ward off the hangover.

Foods That Support the Liver

Adding some turmeric, cinnamon, kale, lemon, and beetroot to your meal is a great way to help support your liver and if you will be drinking alcohol make sure to eat plenty of these.

Slow Releasing Carbohydrates

If you want to keep balanced blood sugar levels while you are drinking, avoid salty snacks as they can dehydrate you, and eat more slow-releasing carbohydrates. Olives, nuts, bread, and chickpea dip are all great for slowing down the absorption of alcohol and easing your hangover the next day.

Fruit

If you do wake up with a slight hangover then fruit is your best friend, it will hydrate you and replace the vitamins you lost. A smoothie with bananas will restore your electrolytes and fruits like watermelon will hydrate you, so throw it all into a blender and enjoy.

A baked fillet of salmon is one of the greatest delights you can enjoy as a pescatarian. It goes great with lots of things, but serving it with boiled potatoes and Hollandaise sauce is hard to beat. Here’s how to make this dish.

Ingredients:

  • 2 salmon fillets
  • Fresh parsley
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 1 pound of new potatoes
  • 2 medium eggs
  • 1 tablespoon of water
  • 1 large knob of unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Salt
  • Black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to a medium-high heat. Place your salmon in a baking tray on baking paper and drizzle some olive oil and a bit of lemon juice, and add some salt and black pepper to your fillets. Your salmon will need around 15 minutes in the oven.
  2. Meanwhile, peel any nasty bits on your potatoes and boil in heavily salted water for about 15 minutes. You will know they are done if it is easy to stick a fork in them.
  3. To make your Hollandaise sauce, begin by beating your eggs in a heatproof bowl, and mix in your water and lemon juice. Put your bowl over a pan of simmering water. Whisk the egg mixture continuously as you add your butter into the mix. Keep whisking until the sauce thickens. If you overheat the mixture, the eggs will start to scramble. Add salt to taste.
  4. Once your salmon and potatoes are cooked and your sauce is made, simply drain your potatoes, add some fresh parsley to your salmon, and you are ready to serve. This dish will go great with samphire or tenderstem broccoli which will add some freshness as well as color.

Omega 3 fatty acids have secured widespread recognition for their numerous health benefits and for good reason. Omega 3 is widely known for maintaining physical well-being and is associated with improving heart and brain health. Keep reading to find out why omega 3 is so good for you and a short list of food sources to incorporate into your diet.

Heart Health

Omega 3s are most commonly known as a heart disease preventative as they help lower triglycerides, reduce inflammation, improve blood flow, and reduce blood pressure. A great well-known, and delicious food source is fatty fish such as salmon and sardines. Aim to include at least two servings of fatty fish a week in your diet.

Brain Health

Omega 3s are also associated with lowering the risk of Alzheimer’s disease and improving overall cognitive function. A great source is fish oil supplements, fatty fish, or flaxseed.

Eye Health

Perhaps commonly less known is that Omegas are also associated with improving eye health by reducing the risk of age-associated degeneration in the retina. Increasing your intake of omegas has many positive effects, especially as you age. Aim for at least 2 servings a week of fatty fish, and sprinkle flaxseeds, chia seeds, or hemp seeds on yogurt, in smoothies, or in puddings for additional sources of omega 3s.

If you’re looking to take your health to the next level, superfoods can be a great way to do that. It is true that superfoods have become somewhat of a buzzword as of late, but beyond all the hoopla there really is a lot of merit to their nutrition content. So what exactly are superfoods, and why are they so incredibly healthy?

They Boost Immunity

The first thing to note about superfoods is that they’re incredibly helpful when it comes to boosting immunity. Spinach and garlic, for instance, have plenty of antioxidants, which help strengthen your immune system, protecting your body against all kinds of illnesses in the process.

They Enhance Brain Function

When you eat delicious superfoods such as avocados, walnuts, and even something as delicious as dark chocolate, you’re actually enhancing the health of your brain. This is because these foods have fatty acids and antioxidants that improve cognitive function, not to mention focus and memory.

They Improve Heart Health

Finally, another excellent reason that superfoods are so good for you is that they do wonders for your heart health. Salmon, for instance, contains stores of omega-3, which helps lower your cholesterol, thus reducing your chances of heart disease.
