As Good For The Outside As The Inside!
Spa treatments that incorporate food have gained popularity over the years. In this article, we will discuss “Fresh And Fruity Facials” that are great for your skin. This isn’t just hype; there are certain elements in food that have proved beneficial for the skin. Calcium, for example, is found in apples, bananas, dairy products, and nuts and has been known to improve bone and teeth development and promote healthy skin, hair, and nails.
When applied topically, calcium-rich foods hydrate and nourish dry, flaky skin. Another element, zinc, found in caviar, nuts, cocoa powder, and dairy products, is useful in anti-aging and tissue rejuvenation treatments. I have often recommended zinc to my clients who have undergone surgery in order for their skin to heal faster. Ingredients like cocoa powder, bananas, wheat, nuts, and ginger include potassium which helps with muscle function and metabolism. When these foods are applied to the skin, they alleviate dryness and enhance elasticity.
