Eat More Dark Fruits and Be Sexy

Looking for love? Help yourself to carrots, peaches, plums and nectarines. Apparently, they may make you more appealing to the opposite sex. A study has found dark fruit and vegetables causes an increase in yellow skin tone sexier than a sun tan.

The colour changes from pigmented fruit and vegies enhanced the perceived attractiveness of faces, researchers at the University of Bristol and the University of St Andrews found.

Participants ranked a skin tone caused by healthy eating as the most attractive.

Fruit and vegies with high levels of the antioxidant carotenoid, produced the best looking skin.
