The latest skin super food – why you should eat Watercress everyday

In our constant quest to keep up with the latest skin super foods we came across a great article in this month’s Good Housekeeping magazine worth sharing with you all.

According to GHK – the one food we should all be eating to guarantee a smooth complexion is watercress.

A new study has shown that eating 80g of watercress a day can improve the appearance of a whole host of skin concerns, including wrinkles, texture, pores, sun spots and redness.

The secret lies in watercress’s high concentration of vitamin C and beta-carotene – which, says Dr Sarah Schenker, a nutritionist and the overseer of the study,

cannot only help to slow down the ageing of our skin, but may actually reverse some of the effects of damage’.

Much like the GHK team, here at Pai we believe amazing skin starts from within – so if you’re struggling to get your complexion under control take a look back at our top posts on the do’s and don’ts of a good skin diet and supplement regime:
