3. Salted Pretzels

While salt is good in small amounts, foods like pretzels and chips have high salt content. This concentrated amount of salt dehydrates you, making your skin look dull and ultimately making you look like you need a nap time. Try food flavored with herbs and spices versus salt as an alternative.

4. Diet Pop/Soda

The artificial sweetener in these drinks makes you bloat and your eyes get puffy. They contain aspartame, which can cause joint pain and induce more sugar cravings. It’s a quick and vicious cycle to get into so stay away! Try flavored water or fruit infused water for a healthier, but yet sweet option.

5. Processed Cold Cuts

Nothing better than that yummy BLT you love to make for lunch, right? Unfortunately, you may want to double check the meat that you are using. The preservatives in cold cut meats are known to cause inflammation in the skin, making you look not like yourself. Fresh meats from the deli may cost more, but hey, they will do your body a bit more justice. They also will probably taste better!
