Foods that Make Women Ugly, Are You Still Eating Them?
Pay attention! There are several foods that can make women ugly. While everyone is paying attention to what foods can make their skin whiter and smoother, today I will tell you about several foods that can make you ugly, which you should also pay attention to.
Photosensitive Vegetables
Photosensitive foods can darken the skin because they are rich in copper, iron, zinc, and other metallic elements. These metallic elements can directly or indirectly increase the quantity and activity of substances such as tyrosine, tyrosinase, and dopamine quinone that are involved in the production of melanin. Eating too much of these foods can make the skin more susceptible to damage from ultraviolet rays, resulting in darkening or the appearance of spots. Therefore, they should be consumed in moderation. Representative foods include sweet potatoes, potatoes, spinach, leeks, celery, coriander, radish, and legumes. These vegetables can make skin prone to dark spots. Generally speaking, vegetables with strong spicy and peculiar odors mostly belong to the photosensitive vegetables.
Photosensitive Fruits
Representative foods include lemons, papayas, cucumbers, and most citrus fruits. Generally, fruits that have a shiny surface mostly belong to the photosensitive fruits.
Dark-colored foods such as milk, eggs, tofu, and fish
Light-colored foods can help eliminate melanin and reduce the burden on internal organs. Conversely, dark-colored foods, like photosensitive foods, can darken the skin. Therefore, they are foods that need to be paid attention to for whitening. Representative foods include drinks such as strong tea, cola, coffee, and chocolate. Dark-colored foods also include purple rice, black beans, red beans, green beans, red kidney beans, black sesame seeds, walnuts, and other staple foods; black-skinned meat such as black-boned chicken, beef, lamb, pork liver, turtle, and deep-colored fish and sea cucumber. In addition, there are carrots, spinach, purple radishes, purple cabbage, black fungus, etc.
Fried Foods
Fried foods are a favorite of many people, but they are not good for the skin. Eating fried foods not only leads to weight gain, but the oxidants contained in them can accelerate skin aging. Therefore, they should be consumed less. If you can't resist, you can try to consume foods rich in vitamin E before eating fried foods to combat aging, such as pumpkin, rubber, spinach, carrots, whole wheat bread, peanuts, sesame seeds, and brown rice.
Highly Acidic Foods
Balancing alkaline and acidic foods is the most ideal and healthy state in nature, and the same goes for food intake. The body fluids of a healthy person are weakly alkaline. When acidic and alkaline foods are consumed in an imbalanced manner, the blood tends to be acidic, which can cause various discomforts and promote the formation of skin pigmentation. Eating more fresh fruits, edible mushrooms, and other foods, and controlling the intake of highly acidic foods such as meat, alcohol, and sugar, is the key to maintaining weakly alkaline body fluids and preventing and lightening pigmentation.
