We talk a lot about treating skin topically, but not as much about what affects skin health from the inside. There are some key nutritional factors that affect the health of your child's skin.
We know that getting adequate healthy fats is a great start to nourish dry and sensitive skin. Some great options are:
-Avocado
-Salmon
-Raw Almonds
-Flax seeds and Flax oil
-Omega 3 Fatty Acids (a micro-distilled fish oil)
Children have a high demand for good fats because of their developing brains and adrenal glands, so make sure they are not eating a low-fat diet!
