It requires certain enzymes, vitamins and minerals to ensure that the rebuilding process is done properly. There are a few small steps you can take immediately to improve the health and appearance of your skin and hair. Skin repairs itself at a pretty rapid pace, so you can expect to see improvements within a month of adding the following to your diet:
· Vitamin/Mineral Supplement: Begin immediately by adding a good multi-vitamin/multi-mineral supplement to your daily diet.
· Antioxidants: Add an antioxidant supplement (A, E, C, selenium or equivalent).
· Oils: Replace your salad oil with olive oil immediately, and change your cooking oil to coconut oil. (Polyunsaturated fats like canola and soybean oil commonly used today oxidize at a lower temperature – this means that they throw off free radicals at body temperature, which cause cellular damage and accelerate aging.)
· Vegetables: If you aren’t already, add at least one very large serving of dark leafy green vegetables, one serving of yellow vegetables and one of dark red vegetables per day. This will add important enzymes, phytonutrients, minerals and fiber. The easiest way to do this is to insist on one large salad of romaine and RIPE tomato with carrots to nibble on the side – and don’t forget to use olive oil for dressing. A squeeze of lemon goes nicely with this, and the combination of olive oil and lemon helps balance liver enzyme function as well.
· Eggs: Protein is vital to cellular regeneration. Although carbohydrates can give you energy, and in the long run your body can use vegetable proteins to synthesize human proteins, only eggs contain every single amino acid necessary to rebuild human cells. Unless you are allergic, add one or two eggs to your menu every day. You can hard boil and chop it over that salad.
· Yogurt: In addition to the protein it adds, yogurt also adds calcium and important digestive enzymes to your diet. Add at least one serving of live-culture yogurt daily. It’s cheap, it tastes good and it’s good for you – what more can you ask for? Full fat yogurt is preferable, since the low-fat kind is usually filled with food starch for texture and adds empty calories. Avoid the kind with lots of added sugar if you can, since sugar has little to no real long-term nutritional value.
Hydration
Your body needs enough water to carry nutrients and enzymes throughout your body. A good habit to start with is drinking 32 to 64 ounces of clean water every day.
Sleep
Getting enough sleep is crucial for both appearance and overall well-being. Sleep allows the body to repair and renew itself, balance hormone levels, and produce mood and pain-controlling chemicals. Adequate sleep not only helps one look good but also feel good, providing a positive perspective and reducing insecurities.
Adequate Sleep
It’s important to get enough sleep, with experts recommending seven to nine hours per day. Some suggest aligning sleep duration with 90-minute sleep cycles, either 7.5 or 9 hours per night. Experiment with different durations based on your schedule and choose what makes you feel best, whether it’s 7.5, 8, or 8.5 hours.
Napping: A Natural Habit
It’s natural for humans to take naps. Babies, small children, and the elderly follow their natural biological cycle by napping. Studies show that our hormones follow a pattern, making the afternoon the ideal time for a nap. That sluggish feeling in the afternoon isn’t just from lack of sleep, a heavy lunch, stress, or overwork – it’s your body’s way of signaling that it’s time to rest. If possible, take a two-hour nap in the early afternoon on weekends instead of sleeping in. Your body will thank you. Even just resting in a cool room with your eyes closed and clearing your mind can be beneficial.
