Elly Kleinman Americare: Bring Back the Years with Healthy Vegetables

There is no magic formula for staying forever young, but as Elly Kleinman states on his NYCDH profile, a healthy diet and lifestyle can contribute significantly to the way your body ages. Among other things, a healthy diet includes the consumption of fresh vegetables, which is a treasure trove of important, and necessary for the body nutrients.

Vegetables contain a full range of nutrients that for thousands of year’s people have been using, in order to maintain their health, vitality, and beauty. So, if you want to slow the aging process and maintain your youthful appearance make sure that every day you take at least one of the following ingredients.

Tomato is rich in nutrients that are beneficial to the skin. Vitamin E found in this vegetable protects and moisturizes the skin, and improves its recovery from damage caused by the action of free radicals. Beta-carotene protects the skin from external influences, especially from the harmful effects of UV rays. Being a powerful antioxidant is one of the tomato’s most special features.

According to Kleinman and several key members of Americare, regular intake of tomatoes in the body reduces the negative effects of sun exposure. Quercetin also found in tomatoes helps reduce inflammation, while also taking care of the skin’s beauty and splendor. Elly Kleinman from Americare also mentions lutein, which is one of the best protectors of our skin and eyes.

Paprika is a real treat for your skin. It contains 4 times more vitamin C than oranges, and just half a cup of chopped peppers provides more than 100% of the RDA (recommended daily allowance) of vitamin C, which Kleinman says is especially beneficial for many reasons, including its ability to prevent wrinkles.

A research conducted recently, which involved over 1000 women, revealed that women who consumed higher amounts of vitamin C had far fewer wrinkles, and their skin was shiny, smooth and well moisturized.

Paprika contains over 30 nutrients from the group of carotenoids whose role is maintenance and ensuring nice and clean complexion. One of the carotenoids found in this vegetable is zeaxanthin, which is extremely important for the preservation of vision and the general eye health. Paprika has a strong antioxidant activity, which is very important for the skin’s health and a youthful appearance.

Because paprika is known for the production of melanin, Elly Kleinman recommends it to people with fair skin, and to those who have problems with spots and dark circles on the skin. Due to its antibacterial action, this vegetable is also of great help in the prevention of acne and pimples.
