Find out which foods help protect the skin from the sun

In addition to the regular use of sunscreen, it is possible to have the help of certain foods that have antioxidants and are rich in nutrients

Summer is synonymous with leisure, beaches and of course, very sun. With this, care with the skin should be redoubled, and, thinking about it, the nutritionist Priscila Gontijocoordinator of the Puravida Science Hub, explained that some foods have antioxidant action and several vitamins that help to neutralize free radicals formed by sun exposure. “Food is a powerful ally to protect the skin from the inside out, making it more resistant to the harmful effects of the sun,” he said.

“Rich in beta-carotene, an antioxidant that the body converts to vitamin A, these foods help to improve skin elasticity and protect against UV rays. Consume carrots, pumpkin and sweet potatoes in salads or refreshing juices,” he explained Priscilla.

Some red and citrus fruits, such as strawberry, raspberry, orange and acerola, are rich in vitamin C, which stimulate collagen production and fight free radicals.

Another food that has antioxidant compounds is green tea, which helps protect the skin from UV rays and reduces inflammation.

“In addition to including grilled, or lunch-baked fish for a light and rich nutrient meal, I also recommend supplementing omega-3 for better nutrient absorption,” said the nutritionist.

Coconut water, besides being a natural moisturizing drink, is also rich in electrolytes, which help keep the skin always hydrated and healthy, not to mention that it is super refreshing.
