Our skin fitness is often a reflection of what is happening within our digestive systems. A healthy belly will lend itself to soft, hydrated, and blemish-free skin. You can obtain this by eating plenty of lacto-fermented foods.

Often referred to as probiotics, lacto-fermented foods contain healthy bacteria that aid the body in proper digesetion. By making foods using yeast and molds, many of the carbs and fats break down creating bacteria, which makes the foods easier to digest. It also gives the food a new flavor to boot.

If there is ever a build up of toxins in the system, this is often apparent by acne and discoloration. You may also struggle with belly aches and constipation.

The most common of lacto-fermented foods is yogurt, but other lacto-fermented foods include aged cheese, sour cream, pickles, saurkraut, coffee, tea, vinegar, wine, chocolate, miso, and soy sauce.

For ultimate skin fitness make sure your diet includes plenty of liver, nuts, and fish of all kinds. All three of these foods contain numerous nutrients specific to skin health.
