You know all those pomegranates, apples, cranberries, and figs currently stacked in your fruit bowl? They aren't just a delicious addition to your morning yogurt or seasonal dessert. They each also happen to be packed with surprising health benefits that can seriously up your beauty game. Who knew popping pomegranate seeds could be contributing to your glowing skin? Ahead, we dove into all the good-for-you elements your favorite Fall fruits have to offer — just another reason for you to indulge!

Try cranberries for lustrous hair

If you want long, shiny hair, cranberries are your go-to. They're full of vitamin A, which helps hydrate hair and prevent moisture loss, as well as vitamin E, which promotes hair growth and prevents breakage.

Try pomegranates for glowing skin

Want luminous skin? Pomegranates are rich in polyphenol antioxidants that combat free radicals (those pesky oxygen particles that are believed to age your skin) and boost blood flow for a bright and youthful glow. They also contain punicic acid, which helps hydrate skin and prevent moisture loss.

Try apples for healthy hair, nails, and teeth

Apples are chock-full of vitamin C, which strengthens hair and nails and promotes growth. In addition, simply chewing an apple contributes to oral health: it stimulates the gum and reduces buildup of cavity-causing bacteria.

Try figs for a clear complexion

For a complexion boost, turn to figs. They're packed with magnesium, which helps keep hormonal acne in check, along with vitamin B, which can reduce redness and inflammation. Plus, they help flush out toxins for clearer skin.
