A HEALTH and wellness enthusiast has issued a seven-day challenge that is sure to make you look years younger.
She showed viewers how it had very little to do with skincare and also how one component shows up within hours.
Amy (@amyshairgrowskinglow) reversed her aging through nutrition and very little skincare remedies.
In a TikTok video, she told viewers about ten fruits and vegetables that will take years off your face.
When the video began, she held up a large bowl full of raw veggies and other preferred foods.
“If you were to eat four servings of these for seven days, you’ll be walking by the mirror a week from now like ‘What is this?Moi?’,” she said.
She wrote in a subtitle that 60% of her skin and hair growth was from the food she ate and the rest are from habits, products, and treatments.
Amy explained that spinach is #1 with 581 percent of your daily provitamin A.
“You shouldn’t even more that two cups of spinach per day because it has oxalates, which could lead to kidney stones,” she explained.
Next, she told her audience that carrots contained 505 percent of your daily provitamin A.
“This is one of the two foods in the video that when I eat it, I can see it show up in my face within a day,” she added.
She also advised viewers to eat two cups of baked butternut squash, which has 337 percent of your daily provitamin A.
Sweet potato closely followed at 284 percent, but the squash has half the calories.
Next, she moved on to vitamin C, where it was the lowest on the list at 149 percent.
She also recommended eating one cup of papaya and not papaya juice which came in at 153 percent of vitamin C.
Then, she told viewers that broccoli comes in at 168 percent, and can see it in her skin when she eats a lot of it.
Lastly, she showed bell peppers at 431 percent of vitamin C.
The comment section of the video was filled with mixed opinions.
“I think about your posts and I’ve been enjoying eating my carotene and fruits and veg! Love it all,” a viewer commented.
“Awww AWESOME! That makes me feel so good! I try to provide value that people can actually use! Thanks!” the content creator replied.
A viewer advised: “If you want to negate the effect of oxalates, combine the spinach with high calcium foods. It counterbalances the oxalate’s calcium ‘theft’.”
Amy wrote back: “Hi! Good point on the calcium and oxalates. I don’t do this because I’m not sure how much calcium is required and don’t wanna risk it.”
