Trade: Fries, crackers, corn chips and other snacks for fresh fruit (cut and pack fruit salad for lunch or buy it ready made from supermarkets or fresh grocery stores).

Why?

Fruit — similar to berries — contains a myriad of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals as well as fibre (fiber). Why fibre? Well constipation is not sexy for skin. When someone’s constipated, they’re carrying around decaying fecal matter in their colons – sometimes 5 days worth of putrid, rotting food! Fibre helps cleanse and push out days old fecal matter. Wastes that hang around for too long in the bowels can have some of the toxins absorbed into the surrounding organs. Yikes!
