Glow up with amla, a natural boost for skin and hair

According to WebMD, amla, or Indian gooseberry, is a rich source of vitamins and antioxidants that have multiple health benefits. The high concentrations of vitamin C in amla help the body to recover from different types of diseases.?

Vitamin C-rich fruits offer numerous benefits for skin and hair due to their potent antioxidant and collagen-boosting properties. “Consuming fruits like oranges, lemons, strawberries, and kiwis helps to neutralise free radicals, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation that can lead to premature ageing, fine lines, and wrinkles,” explains Ms. Bharathi Kumar, dietician, Fortis Hospital, Nagarbhavi, Bangalore.?

The high concentration of vitamin C in these fruits stimulates collagen production, improving skin elasticity and firmness while also enhancing skin brightness and radiance. Ms. Kumar says, “For hair, vitamin C promotes healthy growth by improving circulation, strengthening hair follicles, and protecting against damage from environmental stressors.”

“Additionally, vitamin C's antifungal and antibacterial properties help to control dandruff, itchiness, and other scalp issues,” she adds. Topical application of vitamin C-rich fruit extracts or juices can also provide localised benefits, such as fading age spots, reducing acne, and soothing sunburnt skin.?

Overall, incorporating vitamin C-rich fruits into your diet and skincare routine can lead to a more youthful, glowing complexion and healthier, more vibrant hair.
