Summer is fast approaching, and berries are one of the most delicious (and beauty-enhancing!) foods of the season. "Berries are amazing," says beauty and nutrition expert Lisa Petty, author of Living Beauty. They're loaded with vitamin C, which is "a powerful antioxidant and a key factor in stimulating collagen production… when it diminishes, that's when you get saggy skin." To keep skin supple and smooth, and protect against sun damage, include blueberries, raspberries and blackberries in your diet each day. Petty recommends getting your daily fix with a yummy yogurt-berry smoothie first thing in the morning.
