Introduction: Night owls may stay up late due to work reasons, such as overtime; or due to bad habits, like watching a movie, chatting on QQ, or scrolling through their Moments before bed... and before they know it, they've passed their bedtime. Humans are not nocturnal animals, and staying up late goes against our natural biological rhythms, so it's inevitable that health will be compromised. So, for this group of people, what are some dietary tips to help with beauty and skin care?
For eye health, eat more orange and yellow fruits and vegetables.
Orange and yellow vegetables and fruits are must-haves for night owls. This is because these fruits and vegetables are rich in carotenoids. For example, carrots, pumpkins, oranges, tangerines, etc. Staying up late often impairs the liver's detoxification function. The chlorophyll in vegetables can help with detoxification, while the lutein and anthocyanins in fruits can help improve vision. People who stay up late are more prone to symptoms like "internal heat" and gum inflammation. Eating more orange and yellow fruits and vegetables can effectively alleviate this.

To protect the liver and heart, supplement with B vitamins.
B vitamins are a group of water-soluble vitamins that are not only easily lost but also cannot be synthesized by the body, so they must be continuously replenished from external sources. They help maintain normal blood circulation in the brain, improve memory, and play an important role in relieving stress. B vitamins are essential substances for promoting the body's metabolism and converting sugars, fats, etc., into heat. Foods rich in vitamin B include peanuts, walnuts, green leafy vegetables, milk, animal liver, beef, etc.

Drink more water to maintain skin health.
When staying up late, the most important thing to replenish is water, preferably warm plain water. The water content in human tissue fluid is 72%, and the water content in an adult's body is 58%-67%. When the body's water decreases, the skin becomes dry, the secretion of sebaceous glands decreases, causing the skin to lose its elasticity, and wrinkles may even appear. To ensure adequate water intake, you should supplement with about 1000ml of water when staying up late. It is recommended that women with dry skin should apply some toner to their face or use a moisturizing lotion in a timely manner when staying up late.
