You've heard the basics: drink plenty of water, apply moisturizer regularly, use sunscreen, and avoid milk that can induce acne and stimulate oil glands. But you may want to consider changing your diet instead of ticking off your good-skin to-do list.

Scientifically validated foods are available to help avoid breakouts, tackle dullness, plump up collagen, and help you enjoy clear, smooth, and blemish-free skin. On your face, everything you bring into your body shows up. So why not eat more foods that add brightness, glow, and reduce redness, and prevent the formation of pimples and rid your skin of irritants that can cause redness?

Green tea protects the skin from damage

Green tea, a common ingredient in most skin goods, helps protect the skin from damage from oxidation and facilitates anti-aging cell turnover. In a study, researchers clarify that epicatechins are antioxidants possessing anti-inflammatory properties and defending against UV radiation present in nature and green tea.

Research has shown that polyphenols from green tea are photoprotective in nature. The study proposed that green tea could one day be treated to avoid solar-induced skin diseases, including photoaging, melanoma, and nonmelanoma skin cancers, after further research on humans.

There is resveratrol in red grapes, which helps reduce the appearance of aging

If you love red wine or if you eat red grapes, this is your chance to enjoy it even more! Resveratrol, a chemical compound that tends to help minimize aged skin, is present in the skin of red grapes. Think about it, the red grape is used to fend off the sun's rays when rising on the vine, so the same natural antioxidant now goes to work in your body when picked and eaten.

Researchers concluded in a review analysis that resveratrol is one of the strong natural compounds that improve the safety of solar radiation, protect the skin from sun damage, and delays the aging process.

Sulforaphane in broccoli protects against ultraviolet radiation and decreases the chance of skin cancer

With all of its amazing health advantages, if you were to consume just one vegetable for the rest of your life, it should be broccoli. First, this cruciferous vegetable is full of essential vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin A, vitamin C, and zinc, that promote healthy skin. Second, a gas molecule, sulforaphane, is one of the most powerful compounds in broccoli that is released when the stalk or leaves get harmed (a bug or a human chews it) and, according to some studies, this powerful molecule seems to protect against skin cancer.
