Aging (Skin & Hair)
Your body replaces its skin every 27 days using the food you consume...
so "you are what you eat", literally.

Carotenoids
Protects skin from sun damage that can lead to dark spots and wrinkling (found in red and orange vegetables)

An anti-aging component that protects neurons (found in exclusively fruits and vegetables)
Lycopene
