Eat Your Way To Beautiful Skin

You probably know her or have admired her in a magazine: the girl with flawless skin. You may envy her genetically blessed complexion while cursing your own cellulite/eczema/acne (insert skin complaint here), but the genes that govern your skin’s appearance are the same ones possessed by the girls on the cover of your favourite magazine.

So how do you have beautiful skin too?

Probiotics for Healthy Skin

Probiotics contain health-promoting bacteria, also known as microflora, which are naturally found in the gastrointestinal tract of healthy people. Microflora work by adhering to your gut wall and “policing” potentially harmful microbes so they can’t multiply and thrive. Beneficial bacteria promote healthy digestion and they can manufacture some vitamins including the B-group vitamins so they help to decrease the risk of nutritional deficiencies.
