How is this recipe good for skin?

Wild Blueberries

Antioxidants

Wild blueberries are rich in antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, which help protect skin cells from damage caused by free radicals. This can prevent premature aging and keep the skin looking youthful.

Vitamin C

They are also high in vitamin C, which is essential for collagen production. Collagen maintains skin elasticity and firmness, reducing wrinkles and fine lines.

Anti-inflammatory properties: The anti-inflammatory compounds in wild blueberries can help reduce skin inflammation, which is beneficial for conditions like acne, eczema, and psoriasis

Gluten Free

Gluten can trigger inflammation which may manifest as skin conditions like acne, eczema, or psoriasis

Low Sugar

Balanced Blood Sugar

High sugar intake can cause blood sugar spikes, leading to inflammation and collagen breakdown, resulting in premature aging and wrinkles.

Prevention of Glycation

Excess sugar can cause glycation, where sugar molecules stiffen collagen, accelerating aging. Minimizing sugar intake helps prevent this, maintaining skin elasticity
