food for a healthy snacksIt has been always stressed by experts how important eating is not just for our body and silhouette but as well as for our beauty. Just like smoking or too much chocolate can ruin the complexion and damage the teeth, certain foods encourage the healthy growth of nails and hair, or focus on ridding the face of spots and even wrinkles. Some of them also make great snacks. Like for instance you were at work, with hardly enough time for a proper mini-break for a snack, there is still hope for us to eat something that is good for our body and our health.

Kiwifruit is perfect in this sense, Glamour magazine explains, citing the words of Lisa Drayer, M.A., R.D., an expert beautritionist and author of “The Beauty Diet,” speaking to Woman’s Day. This little green fruit is the most nutritionally dense of them all. This is also loaded with vitamin C, boosting the production of collagen, which improves your skin’s elasticity. The best way to enjoy kiwi? Cut in half. It creates its own bowl, so you can just eat it with a spoon. By serving it like this, you will avoid getting kiwi juice all over the keyboard or, even worse, on your clothes.

In addition, Blueberries and tomatoes also make for wonderful snacks that also take care of your appearance. Blueberries are like “antioxidant powerhouses” that “help rid your body of toxins. Sprinkle some in your yogurt or over a bowl of cereal. Moreover, the lycopene in tomatoes wards off many diseases and may also help protect your skin from sunburns and you can serve them with low-fat cheese or plain, if you like them this much.
