2. Fish and Shellfishes

Fishes are a great source of the essential omega-3 fatty acids that are usually not produced by the body. These omega-3 and omega 6 fatty acids are super healthy for our skin but our body can not produce these. Therefore, you need to get omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid from supplemented foods. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids promote healthy skin and prevent the production of inflammatory substances. Thus these also prevent the formation of wrinkles and acne and also help against sun damage.

Some fishes like Snapper fish contain a special type of mineral selenium. Selenium can reduce sunburn and also promote damaged skin conditions. At least eat two servings of fishes per week so that you can get the recommended dosage of omega 3 fatty acids.

Special Mention: Water

Well, the amount of liquid we should consume every day is still creating a lot of debate.
