Sweet Potato can prove to be a tornado

Sweet potatoes have been an integral part of the Indian street food. Commonly known as Shakarkand, this vegetable is widely consumed in the country, especially during winters. Ever sitting with friends for barbeque nights? Don’t forget to roast these special potatoes. Stuffed with beta-carotene, sweet potatoes can immensely contribute to achieving a healthy skin.

This exotic vegetable is quite popular in Asian cuisines and is rich in vitamins, minerals, and other antioxidants which support hydrated and plump skin.

Go Saffron if you wish to shine on

Saffron is one of the widely used ingredients in the Indian kitchen. Often termed as the “red gold,” of desi dishes, it has endless antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that elevate your skin’s beauty magically. Yes, we aren’t kidding. The legend has it that the Egyptian queen Cleopatra used to bathe in saffron-infused milk to enhance her eternal beauty.

Chia Seeds work as golden beads

Originally from Central America, chia seeds are truly considered golden beads for your skin as they work wonders for the glow. These exotic seeds are the buzzword for all the celebrity dieticians and dermatologists who work with top-notch actors. Your skin cells will thank you if you include chia seeds in your meals. That’s because these seeds are a healthy source of omega-3 fatty acids, which promote healthy and hydrated skin and even reduce inflammation. Relish chia seeds in your diet by blending them in a smoothie or in a chia pudding. You can even have them directly with water once you wake up in the morning.
