4. Collagen
Collagen is one of the essential skin proteins. It is also found naturally in joints and eye fluid. Collagen starts to decline in the body as you approach 30 years of age. No wonder there is a huge market for collagen-containing anti-aging creams and skin products!
Nature has provided us with a host of foods that help our body synthesize collagen.
Examples are: egg whites, fish, chicken, bone broth, leafy greens, citrus fruits, berries, bell peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, kiwi, pineapples, mangoes, guavas, garlic, cashews, beans, and other foods that are rich in Vitamin C.
