Wrinkle FREE!

Avocados: Loaded with Vitamin E, that rejuvenates the skin, they also contain antioxidants that get rid of toxic build-up and have a softening, smoothening effect on your skin. Eat them raw or make dips that go well with party snacks.

Almonds and other nuts/seeds: Make it a habit to pop a handful of nuts and seeds everyday. You can take your pick from walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, macadamia, pistachio nuts, all of which are rich in Omega 3 fatty acids that give your skin its lustre.


Aloe Vera: Get rid of your wrinkles with this natural alternative to Botox. It increases collagen production and keeps skin young looking and plump. Eat it fresh (scrape only the inside gel) or mix with fruits. The perfect combo.


Barley: Whether you eat it for breakfast or as a thickening agent for your soups, it's one cereal that's a must-have because not only is it high in fibre, but also helps metabolise fats, cholesterol and carbohydrates.


Beans and lentils: Stock your kitchen larder with chickpeas, soybeans, peas and different kinds of lentils. They will help you cut cholesterol and fill up on antioxidants, folic acid and potassium.


Chillies / bell peppers: The spicier, the better! Not only do they contain anti-oxidants, but are rich in Vitamin C and can burn fat reserves. So you can do without strenuous exercises and instead sweat it out on the dining table!


Garlic and onions: Yes, they smell, but the benefits are many such as helping the liver eliminate toxins and carcinogens. And besides, they add a lot of flavour to healthy pastas and soups.


Sprouts: Eat them as salads with your meals or make pastes/dips out of them and team with a plateful of raw veggies. They're a great source of protein and Vitamin C and works at developing your immune system.


Wheat grass: If you don't know where to buy it everyday, just grow a potted plant on your windowsill. Drink one glass of wheat grass juice daily or powder it and add to rotis. They have greater levels of nutrients than green leafy vegetables and also help cholesterol, blood pressure and develop immunity.


Yoghurt: Bacteria that are good for you are what creamy yoghurt contains and the calcium can help in maintaining a svelte figure. Make shakes, eat straight from the pack or add to curries, it's high on taste too.
