What Are Some Raspberry Skin Care Benefits You Can Look Forward To?

Raspberries are unique among fruits and berries for their high concentration of skin and health benefits. These benefits include:

1. A High Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC)

Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacities measure how many antioxidants different fruits and berries have. Antioxidants limit the effects of free radicals because they can freely lose an electron without losing their molecular structure or becoming dangerous. Raspberries have an ORAC value of 6058 µmol for every 100 grams, which is one of the highest values in any food family. This means that even a small amount of raspberry can help keep you safer from free radicals, and you can consume them or apply raspberry topically to tap into these antioxidative benefits.

2. Reduce the Signs of Aging

Antioxidants help reverse the damage caused by exposure to free radicals, and a lot of that damage appears as signs of aging: wrinkles, flatter, and more transparent skin, and age spots. Antioxidants can slow down this damage. It can also boost collagen production, which gives your skin more structure. The body naturally produces less collagen over time, and the sooner you start a skin care regimen that can help supplement your skin's natural development, the better.

3. Enjoy Its Anti-Inflammatory Properties

Inflammation makes your skin red, sensitive, and can even make it swollen. But raspberries can reduce inflammation and soothe the skin. Both black and red varieties of raspberries support healthy skin.. Raspberry oil benefits also include reducing redness and irritation. Massaging creams and lotions into your skin can also promote better blood flow and rejuvenate the processes for removing cellular waste below the epidermis.
