1. Drink Drink Drink
Drinks lots of water — at least eight glasses a day — to keep skin soft and clear. Try drinking one or two glasses of water with every meal or snack, and keep a large bottle in your school bag or backpack. Staying hydrated will also help you feel more full — which can help you avoid over snacking on sugary food.

2. You Are What You Eat
It’s annoying but true, so stop with the doughnuts and coke already! Studies have shown that good nutrition contributes as much to your mood as it does to your health. Avoid eating junk food and aim for just once or twice a week indulging in your favorite fast food meal.

3. Take Care of Your Teeth
It’s hard to be some ones friend when you can smell their breath a mile away? Start a nightly dental regimen — brush, floss, and use the strongest mouthwash you can stand. You might consider investing in an at-home teeth-whitening program, too. Most teeth-whitening programs last 14 days or less. These little details will go a long way toward creating not only healthy teeth but also limiting bad breath.

4. Have plenty of Fruits, Vegetables and healthy food.
Start eating fruits and vegetables like they’re going out of style, especially juicy citrus fruits. Grapefruit and grapefruit juice contain lots of antioxidants to keep your skin looking bright and healthy. Apples, dried apricots, cherries, grapes, kiwi, oranges, mango, melon, and raspberries are all excellent additions to your diet. Don’t forget your veggies — cucumbers, tomatoes, sweet peppers, and carrots offer super antioxidant properties, too. Oatmeal is an excellent breakfast solution. Rolled oats are quite filling despite being low in calories. Fish like salmon and herring have essential oils that make your skin and hair healthier.

5. Foods to Avoid
Take it easy on the salt. It will leave you and your skin feeling thirsty, and can make you feel bloated. Watch your cheese intake, along with foods like pepperoni, bacon, and pork, which all have a very high fat content. Milk contributes to that bloated feeling too, so you may want to limit it to just the mornings. Sugar is another culprit to avoid because it produces a natural high, which also means there’s a natural low. This is when you’re at your most vulnerable to overeating. Finally, try to stay away from refined starches like cakes, biscuits, rolls, and soft white bread — these foods will quickly turn to sugar in your body, which turn then into fat
