SOME FOOD HABITS THAT RUIN YOUR BEAUTIFUL SKIN

We all want and cherish a beautiful skin. Just as there are foods that help improve the quality of our skin, there are also foods that ruin our beautiful skin.
It’s important you watch what you eat if you don’t want to ruin your beautiful skin.
Here are 6 food habits that ruin your beautiful skin
1. ALCOHOL
Excessive alcohol consumption isn’t good for your skin as it can lead to premature wrinkles, loss of collagen, elasticity, redness, dehydration and puffiness. Excessive alcohol consumption isn’t good for the skin as it leads to dry skin due to reduction in absorption of nutrients from foods by the skin.
2. REFINED CARBOHYDRATES
Refined carbohydrates like bread, juice, pasta, and candy isn’t good for the skin as they could lead to acne and wrinkles due to their tendency to spike blood sugar levels. Substitute refined carbohydrates with whole grains, protein and vegetables to protect your skin.
3. SUGAR
A diet high in sugar isn’t good for your skin as it degrades the quality of collagen leading to a skin which is more prone to wrinkling and sagging.
4. COFFEE
A high coffee consumption isn’t good for the skin as it leads to increased cortisol in the body. Excess cortisol in the body is bad for the skin as it causes fine lines and wrinkles in the skin. Moderation in the consumption of coffee is important.
5. SALT
Excessive salt consumption can lead to puffy eyes and dark circles. This is because excessive salt in the body causes tissues to swell, making your face seem puffy and tired. Minimize your salt intake if you want to protect your skin.
6. INADEQUATE HEALTHY FATS
Skipping good fats can lead to dry skin and wrinkles. Healthy fats such as omega-3 fatty acids are needed by the skin as they help the skin maintain hydration and prevent wrinkles. Foods such as fish, walnuts and soybeans provides the body with healthy fats.

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...

Mr. Riley was already there when they arrived, sitting on the sand, eyes closed in a deep meditation. He was shirtless, wearing camouflage-patterned shorts similar to the ones The Spellbinder styled the day he appeared on the beach and a pair of rubber diving booties with smiley face emojis scattered over them. You would have been more than amused if you saw him in them. An assistant rushed out of the billionaire’s home the instant he raised a hand toward the heavens, displaying the universal victory sign. Three crisp pages of paper were effic...

THE CROWN YOU CARRY: A Letter to My LOVELY Daughter FROM THE HEART OF A MOTHER

My Dearest Daughter, As the sun rises over the hills of Limuru, casting golden rays upon the dew-kissed tea leaves, my heart swells with pride, hope, and the wisdom only a mother can carry. You, my beautiful girl, are in school, and while the world sees a student in uniform, I see a queen in the making. I see the grace of your grandmother, the fire of your ancestors, and the promise of a bright African dawn glowing in your eyes. This Easter, God granted me the sweet joy of bonding with you—not just as a mother—but as a woman who has walked a little further on this winding road of life. You may not know it yet, but in those laughter-filled mornings and quiet evening chats, a legacy was passed on: not of gold or silver, but of values, vision, and virtue. Let me speak to your soul now, daughter of mine. Listen with your spirit. In this life, my sweet child, “a child who does not listen to the mother’s advice will sleep with the flies” — a Ghanaian proverb as old as wisdom itself. The worl...
