With summer being in full swing, soaking up some much-needed sun is likely on all of our minds. From getting outside for regular walks to heading to the beach for summertime fun, it’s also a great time to start thinking about ways to protect the health of our skin.
We’re breaking down how to support skin health from within to give you stronger and more radiant skin that will glow all summer.
3 Ways to Get Healthy Summer Skin
#1 Healthy Skin Starts With Clean Eating
We have to eat clean in order to get that healthy summer skin we’re all after. From boosting our intake of healthy fats for adequate skin hydration to enjoying plenty of antioxidants and healthy inflammation-supporting foods, a nutrient-dense diet is the first step in healthier skin.
Here are some skin-friendly foods to enjoy for that radiant glow.
- Avocados
- Salmon
- Walnuts
- Bulking up your intake of foods rich in betacarotene like sweet potatoes, carrots, and spinach may also be able to help protect skin cells from sun damage!
#2 Collagen is Essential
While we’re on the topic of healthy eating, let’s talk about collagen. Collagen is the most abundant protein found in the body and is most well-known for keeping our skin looking young and healthy.
Collagen helps strengthen our skin as well as boost elasticity and hydration. The tricky thing about collagen is that as we age, we start to produce less — leaving us prone to dry skin and contributing to premature aging.
The good news is that it’s super easy to incorporate into your supplement routine. By adding a scoop of our Earth Echo Collagen Peptides to your daily mug of coffee, Cacao Bliss, or blended into your smoothie, you can give your skin the collagen boost it needs for that youthful-looking summer glow. *
