We all know that eating lots of fruits and vegetables plays a vital role not only in our overall health but also in the appearance of our skin. But did you know that certain fruits are especially skin-friendly according to health experts. In this particular write-up, I bring you the top five foods you should stock up on if you want healthy, glowing skin that radiates an inner glow.

Blueberries: The original super foods, these ‘little blue dynamos’ have great nutritional weight for their size. A fantastic source of antioxidants and rich in fiber and vitamins A and C, adding them to your diet will do great things for your skin.

Apples: They may not be a trendy new superfood, but the faithful apple is still a skin favorite for good reason. For young skin, choose the Red Delicious variety, which contains the highest collagen content to promote skin elasticity.

Watermelon: With the arrival of summer, we can’t wait to start eating fresh watermelon again. Sweet and refreshing with over 90% water, eating this delicious fruit will hydrate your skin from the inside out.

Bananas: Banana is one of the best sources of potassium, a mineral vital for maintaining the skin’s hydration balance. Extremely dry skin is a classic symptom of potassium deficiency, so try including a banana as part of your daily fruit intake.

Pineapple: Pineapple has been used in some cultures as a medicinal plant for years, as it is the only fruit that contains an enzyme called bromelain, which fights inflammation and swelling of the skin.
