Fruit for Wrinkles?

Another post from my fave doctor, Andrew Weil, MD.

I've long recommended eating berries for their health-protective fiber and antioxidants. But new information about ellagic acid - an antioxidant found in numerous fruits, especially raspberries, strawberries and cranberries (as well as vegetables and nuts) - points to berries' potential as a topical application to help prevent collagen destruction and moderate the inflammatory response. A great deal of well-designed research shows that many compounds in berries, whether applied to the skin or eaten in the form of whole fruit, are among the most protective nutrients your body can utilize. Until topical ellagic-acid-based preparations are widely available, eating berries regularly is one of the best, not to mention tastiest, moves you can make for overall health.

Tip: Please remember that this article and many, many others are not necessarily conclusive. A huge amount of what one reads is not based in fact. Dr. Weil is suggesting that there MAY be a potential benefit to ellagic acid. Unlike may authors, Dr. Weil does rely on research not anecdotal evidence.
