A simple, healthy balanced diet can make all the difference to your energy levels and appearance in the months leading up to your big day. “Everything in moderation”… but try to minimize those things that can work against you.”
Sugar
Too much sugar won’t leave things very sweet; instead, it can initiate inflammation in skin cells which could in turn increase sebum levels, clogging up the pores.
Result? Pimples.
Caffeine
By all means, enjoy a daily cup of coffee or tea, but be aware of overdosing on caffeine: it can prevent your body from reaping the benefits of the vitamins and minerals you’re trying to nourish it with, either from supplements or healthy food. Rather go for decaffeinated coffee or herbal teas instead.
Salt
Please pass the salt… Say this too many times and you’ll also be saying hello to unattractive puffiness as an excess of salt causes tissues to swell, that’s water retention to you and me.
Alcohol
It’s time to celebrate so enjoy your wine and champagne, but bear in mind that alcohol is dehydration in a bottle.Visible signs include flaking skin, dryness, a patchy skin texture and sallow tone.Too much alcohol can also lead to vitamin and mineral deficiencies and cause weight gain.
