If you want your skin to stay smooth, you should eat foods that have high quantities of vitamins A, B1, B6, C and D. Vitamin A and vitamin C are especially great at achieving smoother skin by preventing spots as well as other growths later on in life. It is also a good idea to eat lots of antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids as well as vitamins from fruits, vegetables and green tea as all of these substances will protect your skin from disease and keep it smooth.

When considering a grapefruit, pick a pink one, because pink grapefruit gets its pink-red hue from lycopene, a carotenoid that may help to keep your skin smooth. In a study published in 2008 in the European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics , researchers found that of the 20 individuals studied, those who had higher skin concentrations of lycopene had smoother skin.

Smoother skin was observed in women who consumed vitamin C foods  The lactic acid found in yogurt gently exfoliates the top layers of skin, which helps to clear up blemishes and discolorations. Vitamin E promotes softer, smoother skin while vitamin K improves elasticity. The best part is that you can get smoother skin without having to spend hours every day on skin care. Vitamin A: Proven to help reveal softer, smoother skin and enhance skin’s elasticity. Vitamins A and C are particularly helpful if you want smoother skin. They can also prevent spots and other growths from coming later in life .

Eating foods or liquid nutrition with these vitamins will result in better skin, and smoother skin… The benefits also include sweeter breath, whiter teeth, smoother skin, nicer nails, a sharper sense of taste, and more stamina. Fruit acids and vitamins minimize fine lines and wrinkles by gently sloughing off the top layer of skin, revealing the younger, smoother skin beneath.

Of course, the best way to get all of the above benefits is to supplement.  But you will want to find a way to supplement and have your body readily absorb the nutrients.  I have found the best way to do this is with liquid rather than tablet supplements.  With liquid supplements your body will absorb 98% or more of the nutrients, as compared to 30% of nutrient supplements in tablet form.  The answer is simple.  Either eat the natural skin smoothing nutrients with raw fruits and vegetables or receive the same nutrients in liquid form.

By giving our  bodies what they need for nutrition, skin or otherwise, we restore the equilibrium and support healthy cell growth and resistance to disease and slow down the aging process.
