Good skin has always been desired by people, but the reality is often different. Many women use expensive skincare products and still encounter various issues, especially facial spots. Facial spots have always been a concern for many people. In addition to using spot removal products and surgical procedures, they can also be addressed through diet.
Diet not only has health benefits, but also has a great effect on skincare. Some foods naturally have beauty and spot removal effects. When you have free time, you can incorporate these foods into your diet to easily get rid of the troubles caused by spots. Here are a few excellent spot removal foods:
Kiwi
There are many fruits available on the market, each with different effects. One fruit that has a spot removal effect is kiwi. Kiwi is rich in vitamins and minerals, and can effectively interfere with the formation of melanin, prevent pigment deposition, and maintain fair skin, thus achieving the goal of spot removal. Regular consumption of kiwi can effectively lighten spots and have a good spot removal effect. You can drink fresh kiwi juice by taking a fresh kiwi, peeling and washing it, cutting it into small pieces, putting it in a juicer, adding an appropriate amount of mineral water and honey, and extracting the juice for direct consumption.
Although this fruit is delicious, it is not suitable for everyone. Kiwi is a cold food and overeating it can damage the yang energy of the spleen and stomach, leading to symptoms such as abdominal pain and diarrhea. From a modern medical perspective, the large amount of vitamin C and pectin in kiwi can increase stomach acid and burden the stomach. Eating too much can cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, acid reflux, and heartburn, which can be aggravated in cold weather. In the current cold season, patients with stomach diseases (spleen and stomach yang deficiency) should eat less kiwi. For patients who need to supplement vitamin C or have constipation, other foods or medications can be used for treatment.
Lemon
There is a fruit that is very popular and naturally has a spot removal effect, so people who want to remove spots can consume it, and that is the commonly seen lemon. Lemon not only has slimming effects, but also has the beauty effect of whitening and spot removal. The citric acid it contains can effectively prevent skin pigmentation, whiten the skin, and remove spots. Cut the lemon into slices and add it to warm water for drinking. If it is too sour, you can add honey in moderation.
Most people use lemon for making infused water, but the choice of cup for making infused water is important, as not every type of cup is suitable. Do not use plastic bottles, as any plastic container is not suitable for long-term use, let alone lemon, which is acidic and corrosive. In addition, lemons are generally not eaten raw, but processed into beverages or food. Lemon juice, lemon jam, lemon slices, lemon cookies, etc. can have the same medicinal effects, such as improving vision and reducing fatigue.
