Food & Byoode: We are what we eat
Byoode was born under two fundamental premises. On the one hand, to democratize cosmetics with exquisite formulations and, on the other hand, in order to give visibility to the importance of food to our skin.
Our skin is a true reflection of our emotions, but also of what we eat. Therefore, when we follow a healthy diet, our face is filled with vitality, juiciness and luminosity.
The foods from tomorrow
We have compiled some of the most beneficial foods from the future for the skin and the body and introduced them into highly effective cosmetic formulations.
Why do we talk about food from the future? They are foods that, although they have already been discovered, are not yet common in Western diets or are not widespread, but their benefits for the body and the skin are notable.
Likewise, their production promotes a healthier planet because they are beneficial for the land where they grow and, normally, do not require as many resources.
We choose foods with cosmetic criteria
They are foods that are included within the concept of Sustainable Diets, originating from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).
As an example, they are foods that, in many cases, involve higher yields at the crop level; they can be produced when climatic or environmental conditions are adverse. Furthermore, most contain significant amounts
of highly beneficial nutrients.
Not all foods have cosmetic benefits, but we have found some that do, and what benefits! You want to know more?
Algae
Since they are born and grow in water, they do not suffer the consequences of sudden changes in climate to a high degree.
Legumes
They are rich in nutrients and their
Production is feasible even in drought conditions, making them a clear value given current conditions with global warming.
Cacti and succulents
Since they are capable of storing large amounts of water, they are able to stay healthy in the most arid places on the planet.
Cereals
Cereals have been a part of the human diet for millennia, being one of the main sources of food historically.
Vegetables
Above all, those with green leaves, due to their purifying capacity as they are rich in chlorophyll.
mushrooms
There are more than 2,000 edible varieties of mushrooms, many of which are used in cosmetics for their anti-inflammatory and protective power.
Nuts and seeds
For years, they have been a nutritional trend. It should be noted that they are a source of protein and provide vitamin E and fatty acids.
