Anti aging skin care – eat salmon to keep wrinkles at bay

Want to wrinkle-proof your skin? Eat more fish.

Wrinkle-Proof Your Skin With Vitamin C?, Not All Dermatologists Agree How Big An Influence Diet Has On Skin Aging reports that:

“Higher dietary intake of linoleic acid was associated with a reduced risk of
age-related dryness and thinning of the skin. After digestion, linoleic acid is converted to DHA and EPA – two fatty acids.

While the role of linoleic acid in skin aging has not been directly studied, the researchers note that several studies have suggested that DHA and EPA found in fish oil can protect against skin aging.

The research spurred a popular ‘antiaging’ diet book touting salmon as a super-food for warding off wrinkles. The diet calls for at least 10 servings of salmon a week to reap the skin benefits.”

Alternatively, you can take fish oil capsules, which are good for heart functions and have anit-inflammatory properties too.
