Our diet significantly affects our skin health, which means poor diet choices damage our skin health. Skin is the largest and the most sensitive organ of our body. We get lots of essential nutrients from our daily diet; however, vitamins are considered a boon for our skin; vitamin A is a better option to feed your skin. 

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for young, radiant, and healthy skin. It contains retinol that helps to promote healthy skin cells and tissue growth. Moreover, it provides some natural protection against harmful sun rays and wards off free radicals because of its potent antioxidants such as beta-carotene and carotenoids. Hence, consume vitamin A-rich foods to keep your skin healthy and attractive.

Vitamin A Rich Foods for Skin

1. Tomatoes                                          

Tomatoes are a good source of vitamin A, and they are a vital ingredient in most beauty treatments. We use them as a base ingredient in everyday cooking. Not only for cooking, but you can also use them externally on your skin to remove excess oil from your skin and keep it fresh for longer. Eating tomatoes may help protect the skin from cancer and keeps your skin healthy. Moreover, tomatoes contain vitamin C, which helps boost collagen production.  

2. Pumpkin

Pumpkin abundant in beta-carotene works as a natural sunscreen, which helps boost collagen production and hydrates the skin. Eating pumpkin can help fights sun damage and prevent the signs of aging.  

3. Carrots

Carrots are rich in vitamin A and beta carotene, which help in providing glowing and healthy skin. One cup of carrots provides a 334% required amount of vitamin A. Bete-carotene in carrots converts into vitamin A when you consume it once. It protects your skin from UVA rays and germs. Besides, drinking carrot juice every day can keep your skin hydrated. Vitamin A in carrots helps brighten your skin and make it glow; it promotes elastic and firm skin. Carrots also remove sun tan as it has beta-carotenoid.

4. Broccoli

Broccoli is an excellent source of vitamins and carotenoids, which can help prevent skin cancer. You can add broccoli to your pasta, pizza, and salad. Moreover, vitamin C in broccoli may help improve skin elasticity, reduces wrinkles, and helps treat pimples/acne. Consuming broccoli gives you glowing and youthful skin.  

5. Spinach 

This green leafy vegetable plays an important role in skincare. Spinach high in vitamin A helps enhance the skin's radiance by making it glowing and healthy. Spinach protects the skin from UV rays, fights oxidative stress, and ensures healthy skin. The antioxidant properties in spinach help fight bacteria and germs that cause acne and pimples. You can add this leafy vegetable to your salads.

6. Egg Yolk

Egg yolk is an excellent source of vitamin A, which is responsible for new cell development. Significant fatty acids in egg yolks give moisture to your skin, and albumin in egg whites helps tighten pores and removes excess oil in your skin. Vitamin A deficiency can change the skin's cellular production, which may lower the function of sweat glands. So, consume eggs in a moderate amount to get beautiful and healthy skin.

7. Sweet Potatoes

Sweet potatoes are rich in vitamin A. Consume them regularly to raise the vitamin A levels in the blood. They also have a high amount of vitamin C, vital for healthy collagen production. It is more beneficial for certain types of skin cancer and gives you problem-free skin.
