Beauty & Food
Believe it or not, a healthy and delicious way to get younger looking skin can come to you through foods. Some of the greatest anti-aging ingredients available are found in the following common food items that may already be in your diet: acai berries, almonds, coffee, dark chocolate, fish, fruit, green tea, kefir, kimchi, legumes, olive oil, turmeric, and vegetables. These foods are high in antioxidants and can promote younger looking skin. If you do not already eat these healthy foods, try to incorporate them into your diet to see if they help your skin to have younger looking skin.

Diet & Weight Loss
Ketogenic (often referred to as, keto) is a high-fat, moderate protein, low-carbohydrate diet. In theory, this kind of diet forces the body to burn fats faster than carbohydrates. Many proponents of a keto diet attest that eating this way can help to treat refractory epilepsy in children, obesity and other ailments, while others stridently point to the lack of empirical evidence to prove these kinds of theories. Many people feel healthier and rejuvenated when they apply this kind of eating to their everyday diet.
