Beautiful skin on the outside begins with hydrated cells and connective tissue on the inside. Dr. Murad recommends that you "eat your water" by ingesting raw fruits and vegetables, which are loaded with nutrients and structured water — the kind that nourishes and hydrates your cells. Dr. Murad also suggests taking dietary supplements to ensure appropriate nutrient levels are maintained.

Taking the following supplements on a daily basis will optimize your cellular water content and help build connective tissue.

Lecithin is a phospholipid that repairs tissues by filling in and rebuilding cell walls.

Glucosamine increases water content and strengthens skin.

Amino Acids aid in the healthy formation of collagen and elastin.

Antioxidants including pomegranate extract, goji berry extract, vitamins C and E, and coenzyme Q10, protect against free radical damage.

Essential Fatty Acids such as flaxseed oil and fish oil lock moisture in cells.

Anti-inflammatory Ingredients such as zinc, aloe vera and curcumin soothe skin irritation.

Maintaining a balanced, healthy diet can do wonders for your appearance and well-being.

Take time for a healthy breakfast every day: Whole oats, grains, eggs and fresh fruit boost your metabolism.

Eat an abundance of colorful raw fruits and vegetables. These contain structured water — the best form of water for your cells.

Drink fruit juice, vegetable broth and decaffeinated herbal teas.
