Summer Foods Boasting Big Beauty Benefits

What we eat impacts way more than our waistlines and energy levels. It can have a dramatic impact on the health and look of our skin, hair and even nails. While the focus is often on what we shouldn't eat, focusing on what we should nourish our bodies with can be a more effective tactic.

Most of us have room in our diets for Oreos and french fries every so often as long as they are balanced out by good-for-you foods. But what exactly are those good-for-you foods? There are lots! Especially come summer when there are plenty of vibrant and colorful foods that are absolutely delicious. While some of these foods are only in their prime during the warmer months, others are available all year long but have benefits that are particularly important this time of year, like counteracting sun damage.

We turned to leading health experts to ask them to share their favorite summer foods that offer serious beauty benefits.
