An orange a day may keep fine lines and flaky skin at bay, found a recent study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Researchers discovered that women 40 and older who had greater amounts of C were 11% less likely to develop wrinkles. "Vitamin C boosts collagen production, which keeps skin firm," says lead researcher Maeve Cosgrove, PhD, a nutritional epidemiologist. To ward off wrinkles, consume the RDA of 75 mg--the amount found in a grapefruit.
