Before this lifestyle I used to use a lot of anti aging creams & masks and etc! My skin always felt dry and stressed and even dull! I caked on the makeup and hid the baggy eyes but I didn’t feel great!!

When I started eating more nutritious foods I started to seeĀ a huge difference in my overall appearance! and the saying ” You are What you eat” finally made sense!

I feel like this one is pretty obvious if you are plant based, you know you can get SO MUCH Omega-3 from Chia seeds and they are easy to digest! Ā Chia seeds also fight wrinkles! Eating more foods packed with omega-3 fatty acids helps support your skinā€™s structure and reduces the appearance of Fine lines!

Ā I put a spoonful of these in my smoothies every morning, It helps me stay full as well!


 

5. Walnuts
