“I put my face (muscles and joints!) through their paces so try to ensure that my diet is brimming with four key ingredients.

If you have… inflamed skin that’s losing its ‘spring’

What it is: carotenoid antioxidants are nutritional powerhouses - they prevent cellular damage. Research shows that they can reduce inflammation and have protective effects, boost energy, endurance, skin health and reduce signs of ageing (yes please!). They can directly affect skin’s elasticity, tone, texture and coloration and help to shield the skin from sun exposure (not a substitute for sunscreen though!). Food wise, you'll want to go for deep coloured veg, fruit, avocado, and superfoods like goji, turmeric and rosemary.

If you have… dry, lacklustre, scaly skin

What it is: a lubricating substance that is produced naturally in the body. It’s found in greatest concentrations in the skin, joints and other tissues where it helps retain collagen, moisture and provides elasticity. HA works by helping the skin matrix hold onto moisture and collagen (and therefore volume and tone). It takes about six weeks of consistent use to see the change, but this one is a goodie, and has the added benefit of helping lubricate joints at the same time, so perfect for athletes. Hyaluronic acid also helps stimulate the production of collagen, which is our next saviour. The best way to boost HA in your diet is by including starchy veg and getting enough protein in the diet.

It helps to maintain its elasticity, structure, integrity, and is also essential in skin cell turnover. Collagen production decreases naturally with age, and is also affected by inflammation and nutritional deficiencies. Bone broth and hydrolysed collagen supplements are two easy ways of supplementing collagen internally.
