True.

A well-balanced diet supplies vitamins, minerals, healthy fats, protein, and antioxidants that support skin structure, repair, hydration, and protection from oxidative damage. Key examples: vitamin C (collagen synthesis—citrus, bell peppers), vitamin A and carotenoids (cell turnover—leafy greens, carrots), vitamin E and selenium (antioxidant protection—nuts, seeds), zinc (wound healing—legumes, meat), and omega-3 fats (reduce inflammation—fatty fish, flax). Staying hydrated and limiting excessive added sugars and highly processed foods also helps skin health.
