When You Eat Salmon Every Day, This is What Happens To Your Body (4 of 4)

Your skin could improve by eating salmon

Who doesn’t love an improvement in their skin? Salmon can do just that. “I consider salmon to be one of the superfoods for skin health,” says Dr. Rachel Nazarian, a New York dermatologist. “When you have a high level of good fat in your body it feeds the skin and allows the skin to make this healthy oil and allows the skin to be healthier. That’s what gives skin the glow.”

Salmon could boost your immune system

Salmon is a great way to boost your immune system, especially if you need to increase your vitamin D intake. “Research has found that adults with low levels of vitamin D in their system were more likely to have recently suffered from a cough, cold, or upper respiratory infection,” says a registered dietician named Pamela Bede. “And because you can’t get the vitamin D you need from the sun in the winter months, diet is extra important.”
