Habit Hack: How Seasonal Foods Can Impact Your Skin Health This Autumn


As the seasons change, so do the fresh produce options available at your local markets. Autumn brings a bounty of nutrient-rich, seasonal foods that can help nourish your skin from the inside out, providing essential vitamins, antioxidants, and hydration during the cooler months.

Pumpkins: The Autumn Superfood for Skin Renewal

Pumpkins are rich in beta-carotene and vitamin C, which boost skin cell turnover and support collagen production for a brighter, firmer complexion. Their antioxidants help protect the skin from environmental damage.

  • How to Incorporate: Try adding roasted pumpkin to salads or soups, or blending pumpkin puree into smoothies for a nutrient-rich treat.

Apples: Nature’s Hydrators and Protectors

Packed with vitamin C, apples aid collagen production and offer antioxidant protection against premature ageing. Their fibre helps detoxify the body, promoting clearer skin.

  • How to Incorporate: Enjoy apples as a healthy snack, add them to oatmeal or salads, or drink freshly pressed apple juice for a hydrating boost.

Squash: The Moisture Boost Your Skin Needs

Winter squash varieties are loaded with vitamins A, C, and E, essential for skin repair and hydration. They also have anti-inflammatory properties that soothe sensitive skin.

  • How to Incorporate: Add roasted squash to your favourite grain bowls or as a side dish, or puree it into soups for a comforting meal.

Pomegranates: The Ultimate Antioxidant-Rich Snack

Pomegranates are full of antioxidants like punicalagins, which protect against oxidative stress and enhance the skin’s glow. They also provide hydration to keep skin supple.

  • How to Incorporate: Add pomegranate seeds to salads, yoghurt, or oatmeal, or enjoy them on their own for a sweet, skin-friendly snack.

Sweet Potatoes: A Skin-Soothing Comfort Food

Rich in beta-carotene and biotin, sweet potatoes support skin cell turnover and repair, while their anti-inflammatory properties help reduce redness and irritation.

  • How to Incorporate: Enjoy baked sweet potatoes as a side dish or slice them thin for homemade sweet potato chips.
