Fruits and vegetables are packed with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are known to be very beneficial for one's health. Unfortunately, many people are aware of the health benefits but still do not eat the recommended daily amount. The results of a new study published in the American Journal of Public Health might give some motivation to add some color in one's diet. The researchers found that a high consumption of fruits and vegetables have measurable beneficial effects on skin tone. So instead of buying those expensive creams to get a healthy beautiful glow, why not try eating extra portions of fruits and vegetables !
Quoting the author " Government strategies aimed at improving diet typically only offer information about why a healthy diet is good for us. These strategies have, so far, had no real impact on the nation's eating habits... We hope that by highlighting the rapidly achievable benefits of a healthy diet on our attractiveness will be a stronger incentive for people to eat more healthily. Knowing you are going to look more attractive in a few weeks may be more persuasive than the promise of health benefits later in life"
