Eat skinfriendly foods

A healthy diet helps offset drinking, says Lola Biggs, dietician at Together Health. ‘Skin is better equipped to manage alcohol if you eat alcohol-defying foods.’ Try Lola’s suggestions throughout the party season, rather than shoehorning them in on drinking days.

✱ DARK LEAFY GREENS

Kale and broccoli are high in chlorophyll, which absorb toxins from the bloodstream.

✱ TURMERIC

This spice supports the liver. Add to curries, soups or lattes, or take a turmeric supplement.

✱ OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS

Put avocados in smoothies and eat oily, fatty fish such as salmon and mackerel to counteract inflammation – a driver of premature skin ageing.

✱ BERRIES

Blueberries, blackberries and blackcurrants are bursting with nutrients that fight the impact of alcohol. Add to smoothies and yogurt.

✱ GREEN TEA

Packed with components that support recovery, this provides L-theanine, which stops ‘hangxiety’.
