Feed Your Skin: How to Eat for Healthier-Looking Skin
We know food as fuel: Nutrients converted into energy to keep our bodies moving and our brains focused. What if pastured proteins like corn and soy free chicken or grass fed beef could also nourish your body from the inside out, leading to healthier, more radiant-looking skin?
If it sounds simple, it’s because it is! Real food delivers real
nutrition, and your skin, the body’s largest organ, is the first to feel
and see the difference.
Why a Nutrient-Dense Profile Matters
It’s hard to beat the nutritional profile of pastured proteins compared
with conventional farm-raised meats you’d find at a grocery store. Take
healthy omega-3 fatty acids and their less healthy sibling, omega-6,
for example.
Both are essential nutrients the body needs to
function, but an unbalanced omega-6-to-omega-3 ratio can lead to
inflammation and other health conditions.
Most people tend to do
well in the omega-6 department, as it's often found in seed oils and
fried foods. When conventionally farmed chickens are fed a corn and soy
diet, those high levels of omega-6s get passed on to you.
However, independent studies have shown that fresh corn and soy free chicken raised on natural forage have 50% less omega-6, for a more balanced ratio you don’t have to think twice about.
Nutrients Healthy Skin Loves
- Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Potent antioxidants help neutralize free radicals that cause premature aging and inflammatory conditions, resulting in calmer, softer-looking skin.
- Collagen Production: A structural protein that promotes smoother skin and stronger joints is found in animal and seafood products, including bone broth, fish, and poultry.
- Fat-Soluble Vitamins: Powerhouse vitamins like A, D, E, and K support skin health, from a resilient skin barrier to cellular repair, and are found in 100% grass fed and finished beef.
