Anti-Aging Superfoods for Skin, Hair and Nails
Your skin is a good reflection of your inner body’s health. In fact, what you eat has a direct influence on what is expressed externally. Since superfoods are known to reverse aging, eating the right foods will enhance your natural beauty and minimise inflammation, acne, wrinkles, dry skin, and other skin-related conditions. The anti-aging foods or so-called ‘beauty’ nutrients needed include protein, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids. These all play an important role in attaining beautiful skin, strong hair, and nails. Trust us, you will notice a big difference in your looks as you feed your body with the right nutrients!
1. Protein
Proteins turn into building blocks called amino acids upon digestion. Your body then reuses them to make other proteins, including the collagen and keratin that form the structure of the skin. Collagen, which is a well-known amino acid for promoting skin elasticity can be formed through the combination of certain amino acids (proteins, which can also be plant-based) and vitamin C. Nature’s superfoods organic Quinoa seeds, amaranth, sacha inchi seeds, and plant-based protein powder are examples of superfoods that have high protein content, making them some of the best anti-aging superfoods for your skin, hair, and nails.
2. Antioxidants
Antioxidants are strongly related to beauty as they fight against oxidative stresses by stabilising free radicals. This decelerates the speed of premature aging. This is possible because eating antioxidant-rich foods will improve the anti-aging process and reduce the free radical damage to your cells. Anthocyanins, Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG), resveratrol and Velutin are powerful antioxidants found in our superfood products, including maqui powder, acai powder, organic matcha powder, goji berries, dried mulberries, golden berries, chia seed oil that help to improve the overall health and condition of your skin and hair.
3. Essential Fatty Acids
Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) are particularly important for building cell membranes, skin and tissue repair, and overall membrane flexibility. Too little essential fatty acids in your diet can make your skin dry and wrinkled. Omega-3 fatty acids are a kind of polyunsaturated fat that helps reduce skin inflammation that may cause skin conditions such as acne and eczema. Since polyunsaturated fats cannot be produced by the body naturally, adding superfoods that have a rich source of Omega-3 will ensure your body is not lacking in this essential fat. Nature’s superfoods organic chia seeds, acai powder, sacha inchi seeds, plant-based protein powder has a good amount of plant source EFAs that aid in the anti-aging process and provides nutrients to the skin and hair for extra moisture and nourishing benefits. Our chia seed oil, which has an Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratio of 3:1, ensures that you benefit from the increased intake of Omega-3 fats instead of other essential fats.

Organic Premium Matcha Powder – Culinary Grade (For...
Matcha contains good amounts of antioxidant polyphenols and amino acids, such as L-theanine and theophylline which makes it a nutrient-dense superfood. Chlorophyll helps in detoxification; while L-theanine amino acid is known to reduce anxiety and stress, and when combined with the caffeine content in matcha, induces a calmer, yet more alert, state of mind. Additionally, EGCG (Epigallocatechin gallate), a powerful catechin found in matcha, has been shown to improve insulin function. EGCG helps your cells absorb glucose more efficiently, reducing blood sugar levels and improving metabolic response, which is great for diabetes management. Not all Matcha teas are the same. Nature’s Superfoods has sourced for a high-quality certified organic Matcha tea that comes from the tea-growing regions in Japan. Pls note that certified organic matcha powders often don't have the vibrant green colour that a high grade non-organic matcha can have, and are often slightly duller in colour. This is due to the fertilizers used while the tea leaves are shade grown. When the matcha is grown organically, it is given organic fertilizers which lack the “instant energizing effect” of chemical non-organic fertilizers. If you choose organic and clean, the slightly duller color and flavor would be a small price to pay for the purity of organic matcha powder, without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Chemical pesticides not only harm the environment, they carry health risks too. Additional steps have been taken to ensure that our Matcha Powder is one that you can trust. Nature's Superfoods Matcha Powder has been lab-tested for contaminants like heavy metals and radiation. "> -
