SKIN CARE TIP – The Benefits of Pecans

Not only are pecans delicious but they’re also very beneficial for your skin and scalp.

Pecans contain a lot of antioxidants like ellagic acid and vitamins A and E. These substances fight the toxins that enable the early aging of the skin (which manifest in the form of fine lines, wrinkles or pigmentation). Pecans are also a good source of zinc, used by the body to guard against infections.

L-arginine, an amino acid that encourages the growth of healthy hair, is found in pecans. This substance improves the flow of blood, which encourages healthy heart growth. Pecans are also a good source of iron to support the health of your blood iron levels.

So if you want perfect skin and healthy hair, munch on some delicious pecans, it’s good for you!
