What can you do to keep your skin looking younger? Glad you asked. Here are the top 10 tips for younger, healthier skin.
1. Less Sugar
Higher sugar levels damage your skin causing it to not only become wrinkled, but also become dull making you look much older.
How does sugar in the diet do this? Sugar attaches to proteins in your body which form 'AGE' proteins, and this includes the collagen and elastin in your skin. Sugar also causes more free radicals, which makes your skin age faster, especially above the age of 35. It also turns type 3 collagen to type 1 which is the more brittle, less youthful collagen.
So reduce your refined sugar intake, have more natural sweeteners such as honey, and ensure that you choose low GI carbs instead.
2. Use A Shower Filter
You aren't alone if you never considered that a shower filter could keep your skin looking younger. Chlorine ages the skin prematurely as it a potent oxidant. Adding a filter to your shower will remove the chlorine and other chemicals caused by the interaction of chlorine with organic matter.
The result? It's softer, younger looking skin. Activated carbon or KDF filters will remove as much as 95% of the chlorine from the water. Many people who use shower filters now report younger looking skin that looks and feels better and smoother.
3. Low GI Foods
GI stands for glycemic index and it ranks carbohydrates according to the effect they have on your blood glucose levels. If you're like most, your blood sugar levels are up and down all day long which affects our moods, is bad for your waist, and it's also bad for your skin.
When you have low GI foods, your body produces less cortisol, which then encourages your body to produce DHEA which has anti aging effect on your body. You'll look younger naturally and feel younger as well.
How do you apply the low GI diet? Foods to avoid include refined foods, white bread, most rice and white potatoes. Low GI foods include vegetables, multigrain bread, Basmati rice, lentils and beans, fruits, and yoghurt.
4. Non SLS Skin Care Products
SLS is short for sodium laurel sulfate a dangerous chemical used in far too many skin care products, that's actually a known skin irritant and oxidizer. By the way, it's also used in engine degreaser and industrial cleaner.
Do you still want to put it on your skin? That's why you need to read labels and make sure that you are buying natural, non SLS soaps and shampoos. It's a big step towards younger looking skin.
