Healthy Hollywood: Fab Food Friday – Eat Up To A Younger Looking Bod, Stars Do It, So Why Not You?

Celebs are always hot on anti-aging trends – whether it’s a new miracle potion or a trendy nip & tuck procedure. I am happy to say one of the hottest ‘turn back the clock’ tricks is all natural! Stars like Teri Hatcher, Rebecca Romijn, Angie Harmon and Rebecca Gayheart are working superfruits into their diet. “Superfruits are the most potent fruits in the world; they’re high in unique nutrients not found in (or found in lesser amounts than) other fruits,” reveals celebrity nutritionist Dr.Lindsey Duncan, who created the superfruit juices Genesis Today. So, exactly which fruits pack the most powerful nutrients? Acai, Goji Berry, and Resveratrol, are all considered magical. Here’s how:

1. Acai:

It’s known as the ‘beauty berry’ in Brazil and has been a favorite beauty secret for thousands of years. Acai is good for the skin because it naturally contains omega fatty acids, known to support healthy skin and also help your body slow down the digestion process and make you feel full longer.

2. Resveratrol:

Contains polyphenolic antioxidants, which can help fight free radicals; as free radicals are known to damage healthy cells and age skin cells. It also helps with youthful energy and appearance and helps to support healthy inflammatory responses for overall wellness.

3. Goji:

Is essential for boosting mood and memory, and is also key for eye health and endurance. Goji is also rich in beta carotene which your body converts into Vitamin A, which is another known antioxidant (and retinoid) that fights free radical damage.

“Juices and supplements are the easiest, quickest and most convenient way to get all the beneficial nutrients that superfruits have to offer…Mix and match your superfruits depending on your own needs.” Dr. Duncan also adds, “A good rule of thumb is to enjoy at least two superfruit juices daily and you can also include a few fresh superfruits such as pomengrates, blueberries, or even cranberries into you r daily diet as well.”

An excellent way to get your daily dose is sip ‘em up in a smoothie.
