When Winter comes, dry skin comes along with it. Since there's less humidity is the air, my skin gets so uncomfortable and itchy. Besides using a rich moisturizer [1], turning down the heat, and using a humidifier [2], eating these foods can also help improve dry skin.
- Foods that contain omega-3 fatty acids: salmon, flaxseed [3], tuna, avocado [4], nuts
- Foods that contain zinc [5]: oysters, crab, beef, and beans. Zinc helps heal wounds.
- Foods rich in sulfur [6]: garlic, onions, and eggs. They help to keep your skin smooth.
- Water. Not sure how much you need? Then check out Fit's Calculator [7].
- Avoid caffeine and alcohol. These diuretics will suck your skin dry.
