Walnuts have the most antioxidant power of any nut and are an excellent source of omega-3 fats. This combination makes them a great inflammation-fighting snack for better skin (and health in general). Walnuts are also great for boosting your gut health. The health of our microbiome is closely related to skin health, and proper gut health helps the skin stay in homeostasis for optimal protection, temperature regulation and water retention.
