1. Foods That Are Rich In Vitamins

Vitamins are a very important nutrient for the body and we cannot start to mention all vitamins and how the body benefits from having them in a single article. Vitamins are generally abundant in many foods in their raw states but by the time we process them and subject these foods to heat, soak or wash them in water, many vitamins are lost because they are heat labile or water-soluble. My colleague mentioned something related in an article about unhealthy side of tomato puree or paste in one article published recently.

Vitamin C aids in skin collagen formation, vitamin A aids in the development of skin cells, and vitamin E helps the body regenerate vitamin C. These three vitamins together, help to fight off development of new stretch marks and promote the healing of current ones.

Example of foods that are rich in these vitamins are: Vitamin C — carrots, sweet potatoes and blueberries; Vitamins A and E — milk, cheese, avocados and sunflower seeds.

  1. I have been trying these foods as remedies and what I have noticed is that there are changes on sone parts while I don’t see any change on some parts. If you know what I mean.,

  2. It has been about a month since I started following your tips. The marks are fading away but not as fast I though it would be. Thanks anyway.
