Strawberries & Smoothies

Strawberries aren’t just a delicious treat; they’re jam-packed with nutrients that can transform your skin. From boosting collagen production to providing essential vitamins, these vibrant berries offer a natural way to promote skin health from the inside out.

Nutrient Powerhouses

One of the standout nutrients in strawberries is vitamin C. This antioxidant plays a vital role in collagen synthesis, helping to keep your skin firm and elastic. Additionally, vitamin C fights free radicals that can damage skin cells, contributing to a more youthful appearance.

Strawberries also contain manganese, which supports collagen production and helps protect skin cells from stress. Combining these nutrients makes strawberries a fantastic addition to your diet for maintaining healthy, glowing skin
