Top 5 Anti-Aging Tip & Tricks
Eating Essentials:
It’s common knowledge the foods we put into our bodies have a profound effect on our overall health. Taking into account how much more quickly we lose those vitamins and nutrients as we age, it quickly becomes clear: what we eat, and even sometimes how we eat it, plays a huge role in how much we represent our age in our physical appearance. Here are some common food items high in many nutrients which help with your anti-aging goals:
- Watermelon
- Oranges
- Avocado
- Lean Beef
- Salmon
- Grapes
- Greek Yogurt
Work-out to reduce wrinkles!
What?! How in the world can exercising possibly reduce wrinkles and help with anti-aging? The answer lies in the formation of collagen and elastin, which inhibited greatly by an inactive lifestyle. A study from the Journal of Metabolism found regular exercise routines greatly reduced the number of AGEs (advanced glycation end products- the collagen and elastin inhibitors) found in the blood.
Massage Your Mouth Muscles…
Okay, so not just your mouth. It’s been proven, though, massaging your face nightly, using small circular motions, promotes the skins natural elasticity and helps to prevent further tissues degeneration. For best results, try massaging your nightly products onto your face in this fashion.
Grandma’s Fish Oil
Our mothers and grandmothers, back and back for generations, have touted the many benefits of fish oils and other omega oils. And, they weren’t wrong! Old wives tales have their time and place, but it’s interesting to note most begin with at least a kernel of truth. We see that here, especially when you begin taking fish oil and vegetable oil supplements from a young age. There are too many potential gains to reap from these omega rich supplements to keep them on the shelf. Even applying a few drops of rosehip oil to your face as part of your nightly routine will provide visible skin-enhancing benefits.
Sensible Slumbering
Beauty sleep is not just a quaint and endearing way to tell someone they need rest. The term has its roots in a strong foundation of verifiable scientific research. While you sleep, your skin cells repair themselves and generate new cells to replace old, damaged ones. The growth hormone responsible for this process only functions at night, so the term ‘Beauty Rest’ is actually incredibly accurate!
Taking Control of Anti-Aging
Of course, there’s no single, surefire way to completely stop the aging process (or, better yet, reverse it). Those dreams are still reserved for books and the cinema. Still, if you educate yourself, make a plan, and follow through with everything you’ve learned about anti-aging, you’re sure to see an improvement!
