Shiny Hair
Eat mango, papaya, tomatoes, carrots and peas for a good dose of vitamin A.
Antioxidants found in vitamins E and C keep hair looking healthy and shiny.
Blueberries, nectarines, peaches, butternut squash and potatoes are all rich in
vitamin E.
Bright Eyes
Vitamin A and zinc aid the retinas in producing photosensitive proteins that
help the eyes absorb light. Grapefruit, watermelon and passion fruit are good
sources of eye-brightening vitamin A, and cabbage and sun-dried tomatoes
are high in zinc.
Healthy Nails
For strong, healthy nails, eat glow foods like Collard greens, turnip greens,
okra, kale and broccoli are rich in calcium, and dried apricots, raisins and
parsley provide iron.
