What foods do you eat to help keep you looking great?
I am completely with you in enjoying these foods. Yum, and healthy too.
ReplyDeleteToday at Whole Foods I bought my husband and I assorted nuts in the shell, a super tasty and healthy snack. And may I mention Dove dark chocolate too, which I read in Prevention magazine is recommended!

The new tooth whitening strategy didn't work - the strawberry pips got stuck in my bridge :(
ReplyDeleteI eat blueberries (daily) and Brazil nuts (in moderation) as part of my healthy diet. I trained to be a nutritionist at one point so I am into all this stuff big time. I bore Hubby to death about what is in his food. he looks good on it though so he shouldn't complain!
Yo can't go wrong with any brightly coloured vegetables or fruit so well done. Keep it up!
XOXO
Strawberries and whitening.... hmm had no idea. Interesting post
ReplyDeleteSalmon for collagen (skin & connective tissue.
ReplyDeleteI eat a wide variety of fruits and vegetables and drink plenty of water. No meat or seafood. I did not know strawberries helped keep your teeth white. It is strawberry season down here so I will have to get some and add more to my diet!

ReplyDeleteDearest Celia,
ReplyDeleteWe both (Pieter and I) are a strong believer in Avocado as an improvement for your skin. We eat one half avocado almost daily at breakfast time. Just scooping it out. Costco has the best so we always buy when we get there.
Cranberries do have some super power as well, they're very good for your teeth and for your urinary tract. In general we splurge on veggies and fruits. Fish instead of meat or even vegetarian meals.
This was a very interesting post!
Love,
Mariette
The lobster is a yes. But the strawberry's and Sweet potatoes have to go. Any other suggestions? I don't like the taste of those.
