Health – Feed Your Complexion

Eat your way to healthy skin with these good-for-your-face foods

Dr Carrie Wiatt, Nutritionist to the stars

1. Berries

“Berries are particularly good because they’re packed with antioxidants that can protect your skin cells from oxidative damage caused by environmental toxins,” says Wiatt. In fact, when scientists at the Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University measured various fruits for their ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity), berries were among the top 10 most powerful (blueberries ranked number three, with blackberries, strawberries, and raspberries occupying fourth, fifth, and sixth place, respectively).

2. Salmon
“Of all fish, salmon is one of the richest in omega-3 fatty acids,” says Wiatt, adding that “the skin absolutely has to have essential fatty acids in order to stay plump and youthful-looking.” Not a fan of fish? Contrary to rumors, Wiatt says fish oil supplements won’t cause overactive sebaceous glands in acne-prone skin (“It’s a myth that they’ll make your skin oilier”). If you’re still wary, Wiatt recommends finding healthy fat in avocados (“They’re great for keeping skin moisturized and resilient”), flaxseed or olive oil, and nuts.

3. Sunflower Seeds
Whether you prefer them as a snack or salad topping, Wiatt says sunflower seeds provide a healthy dose of vitamin E—a powerful antioxidant that can protect the skin from sun damage, decelerate the aging process, and diminish the appearance of wrinkles and acne scars.

4. Whole Grains
One of Wiatt’s favorite skin-healthy snacks: Sunflower seed butter from Trader Joe’s spread over whole wheat bread. Whole grains—breads, cereals like bran flakes, etc.—are good sources of zinc and selenium, two powerhouse minerals that guard skin from damage and maintain collagen fibers. As anti-inflammatory agents, zinc and selenium can also help quell acne flare-ups.

5. Citrus Fruits
“Vitamin C helps build collagen,” says Wiatt, noting the importance of vitamin C-infused citrus fruits in upholding skin firmness and elasticity. Citrus fruits like grapefruit and oranges are refreshing to eat during summer, but those who lean toward the exotic and/or vegetable variety can find wholesome alternatives in kiwi and red peppers, which actually contain more vitamin C per serving.

6. Spinach
This leafy green is a must-have for any salad—besides being chock-full of zinc, selenium, and vitamins C and E, spinach is also a prime source of vitamin A, which signals the production of new skin cells. Dairy products like yogurt and cottage cheese contain ample amounts of the antioxidant too, but may not yield positive skin results for everyone (milk is laced with cow hormones, which some researchers say boosthormonal acne in humans who consume it). If you do have sensitivity to milk, however, there’s no reason to sour on the creamy mixture: It can also work wonders topically. Wiatt suggests pouring some in your bath à la Cleopatra for skin-smoothing results (in addition to Vitamin A, milk contains exfoliating lactic acid). Many beauty brands also offer packaged, less messy milk-based options (see Burt’s Bees Naturally Nourishing Milk & Shea Butter Body Wash).

pioneering sound crews, The Baby Blue Crew, Kevin “Kid Kut” Keith of the X-Caliber Entourage has gone on to serve the industry as one of Canada’s most recognized club emcees. On May 30th, 2010 at The Mod Club Theatre located at 722 College St. Toronto, ON he was awarded the 2010 Stylus Club MC of the Year Award for a third time.

“It is truly an honour to receive this award, and I want to say thanks to my team for supporting me throughout my career.” – Kid Kut, in a statement after the show.

This three-time recipient of the award, which is the highest acclaim in Canada in the field of nightclub emceeing, remains in high demand, travelling from Vancouver to Halifax, New York to Miami, as well as working the crowd right here in Toronto, a city that has supported him from the beginning of his career almost 2 decades ago. When not serving as an emcee, Kid Kut is an entertainment “multi-hyphenate”, who has been a heavy hitting contributor to Canada’s music industry as a DJ, Promoter, and Producer. He has produced top urban talent such as Kardinal Offishall and Jully Black as well as R’n’B crooner, Ray Robinson.

He is the proprietor of “Shine” barbershop in Brampton, Ontario where many industry colleagues can be seen sitting in the chairs. His depth of talent and wealth of experience have built a solid foundation where although he is a veteran of the game, the best is yet to come.
