Hello readers, today we talk about skin care! Yippee for the ladies and yeah yeah for the guys. A reader sent me this article and hoped it would be shared all about the world. Personally, I believe aging is an inevitable and natural process. We all must grow old, it's all part of the plan but to some aging appears to come faster and to some others slower.
I guess we all want to look younger or rather—we all hope our aging process slows down especially when we look at the mirror and see those wrinkles on your forehead and eyes.
We cannot stop aging totally but the good news is that we can slow down the process by observing some simple activities.
Here are a few tips on how to slow aging process.
Be happy : The physical damage caused to yourbody by stress has only recently become appreciated by the scientific community. Fill yourlife with happiness and things you love and get rid of almost everything else. Practice stress relieving activities like meditation and exercise,and learn to appreciate joy when you find it. Happiness does a body good.
Eat vegetables : There is good evidence that oxidative damage caused by toxins and metabolism contributes to the aging process at a cellular level. Foods (but not supplements) high in antioxidants seem to protect us from oxidative stress and thereby making us look younger.
Avoid sugar : Try as much as possible to avoidexcess sugar, as Sugar is a direct cause of agingand significantly reduces lifespan in organismsfrom yeast to primates. Not by a small amounteither.
Moisturize : The appearance of your skin is largelydependent upon moisture. Help it out by usingmoisturizers to keep your skin soft and hydrated.Work with a professional to determine what typeis best for you and quality enough.
Don’t raise your eyebrows : Credit my mother for teaching me this one, it has been a life saver. As akid she used to warn me about raising my eyebrows, saying it would give me wrinkles and I’d regret it. I thought she was crazy, but still learned to express myself without much forehead crinkling. As a result I have far fewer forehead lines than some people years younger than me.
Sleep Well : For me the most important determinant of how I look (and feel) on a given day is how much sleep I get. Seven hours is my ideal, but everyone is different.
Eat fish : Some evidence suggests that the omega-3 fatty acids found in fish are particularly beneficial to the skin.
Wear sunscreen : Try as much as possible toavoid sun rays, but cases where you have to,never walk out the door without sunscreen on theface. UV radiation from the sun damages your skin and promotes aging.
Don’t smoke : Smoking is one of the easiest ways to look older than you really are and shorten yourlife at the same time. Avoid both primary and secondary smoke like the plague. For people already smoking try to if you really want to look young and healthier.
No foundation or powder makeup : Generally avoid putting any makeup directly onto the skin,but skipping the makeup does help maintain your skin’s hydration and elasticity. For ladies, wear makeup occasionally, maybe once or twice perweek. But in general I will recommend mascara and lip gloss are enough for most situations.
Exercise often : It is very important to keep fit, It will shock you too know that regular exercise is recommended for so many ailment and this case is not left out. New research shows that regular physical activity can reduce the inflammation inthe body that comes with aging , which could also help decrease your risk ofdeveloping related diseases and conditions—like heart disease, depression, decreasedmental function, and loss of muscle mass.
Others Include : Eat fruits, Take Vitamin D, Eat Nuts,Beans etc..
