How to Avoid
Aging Skin and Prevent Wrinkles

Pollution,
lifestyle and diet are key factors in how we age and stay healthy.
The main effect of pollution on our bodies is an increased
production of free radicals in our bodies, which weaken the immune
system. As a result we have a greater risk of premature ageing and
developing chronic diseases such as asthma and cancer.
Antioxidants
mop up free radicals and can be found in certain fruits and
vegetables, or can be taken as a dietary supplement.
Smoking is
another key factor in premature ageing. Look at your friends and
family members who smoke, and compare how they look against non
smokers of the same age. Smokers generally have more facial lines
and wrinkles, and their teeth may be discoloured. |

Drinking
plenty of water, especially between meals, helps to flush toxins out
of our system. It also helps to keep the skin clear of
imperfections, and can prevent hangover headaches caused by
dehydration, and of course water is free of calories!
Take regular
exercise to keep the heart and lungs healthy and boost your
metabolic rate, and help keep your skin clear. A diet
rich in antioxidants will help to reduce the impact of pollution on
our health. Some health experts believe that free radical damage is
the cause of premature ageing. Most of us know that we should
protect our skin from the sun by using a UV blocker, in order to
reduce the ageing effects of the sun.
But how
many of us consider the aging effects that pollution may be having
on our complexions. Healthy foods which are naturally rich in
antioxidants include beetroot, blueberries, brussels sprouts,
broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cherries, cranberries, grapes, plums,
peppers, raspberries, spinach, strawberries, sweet potatoes and
tomatoes.
Nutritional
supplements which contain antioxidants to help protect against
damaging free radicals include Co-enzyme Q10, Lipocarn, Lycopene,
Pycnogenol and Selenium. These can be purchased from health food
stores. |

Tips for avoiding
the ageing effects of pollution and remain healthy and look younger
than your age:
-
move to
an area with less traffic and pollution generating industrial
areas.
-
give up
smoking and avoid close proximity of other people smoking.
-
eat a
well balanced diet rich in antioxidants.
-
take a
nutritional supplement containing antioxidants.
-
drink
plenty of plain water, especially between meals.
-
exercise
for at least 30 minutes per day.
When you are
a teenager you do not think about getting old, but once we approach
middle age and see friends and family with various ailments, it
makes us more aware of our own health and our appearance as facial
lines and wrinkles start to appear. No-one wants to get older,
although the thought of retiring and giving up work may be
appealing! So a few changes in diet and lifestyle can act as
insurance against ill health and looking older, and set you up for a
long and healthy future.
Anti-aging
creams are moisturisers marketed with the promise of making the
consumer look younger and reducing visible wrinkles on the skin.
Despite great demand, many such products and treatments have not
been proven to give lasting or major positive effects. Read more at

Skin care and beauty mavens have often told us to wash our
face gently with mild cleansers and moisturize, moisturize
and moisturize. Anti aging skin care can help you look
younger. Aging is a syndrome of changes that are
deleterious, progressive, universal and thus far
irreversible.
There are several key components to antiaging skin care in
the effective prevention and treatment of fine lines,
wrinkles and the loss of youthful glow. The truth is
wrinkles can not be seen by the naked human eye. Many women,
and some men too, use anti aging skin care products. There
are several different philosophies and beliefs behind the
science of anti aging.
Some people believe there is a lot of hype on the skin care
creams frontier, when it comes to claiming the ability to
reverse aging.

Aging is a
natural process, and it is also true that no one can
completely prevent nature. Anti- aging skin products have
completely revolutionized the concept of skin care. Anti
Aging is the process of delaying the effects of aging,
particularly of skin like wrinkles, lines, crowfeet and
sags. Many of the anti aging products include ingredients
that are risky and have been linked to cancers.
Anti- aging
skin products prevent general ageing of the skin by
providing reinforced protection against daily aggression.
These anti-aging products fight both visible and invisible
signs of ageing.
The best anti
aging product is most likely to contain ingredients that
fight aging: Alpha-Hydroxy Acids (AHA), antioxidants,
collagen and Vitamins C, D, E and K. Botox is one of the
effective anti aging treatments available. Many of these
vitamins are antioxidants which fight against free radicals
in the body.
