Our bodies can actually tell us if we're lacking in any vital nutrients, through signs like dry skin, brittle nails or thinning hair - and now, a doctor has lifted the lid on what some of these unpleasant symptoms actually mean
Leading a healthy lifestyle is critical, and getting enough nutrients, vitamins, and minerals is a vital part of this.
"It's important we pay close attention to any warning signs our bodies may be giving us and ensure we are getting the right fuel to help us lead healthy and active lives." Iron-rich foods like red meat, beans and lamb, B12 found in poultry, fish and nuts and seeds, and folate from dark green leafy vegetables, fruits and seafood can help maintain your health.
Vitamin A, which is vital for skin cell production, can be found in vegetables such as carrots and butternut squash, liver, fish and eggs. A deficiency in this vitamin can result in rough, dry patches or acne.
