Simple Lifestyle Changes To Prevent Wrinkles Naturally And Healthily
As we age, wrinkles naturally become part of our lives. That doesn’t mean that we can’t slow down wrinkles happening more quickly. By making simple lifestyle changes, we can prevent wrinkles naturally and healthily.
Eating A Healthy Diet
Having a balanced and healthy diet rich in vitamin C, zinc and essential fatty acids, such as Omega-3, can help to both prevent and repair wrinkles. Foods full of antioxidants, like strawberries and blueberries, also protect collagen, an essential part of skin structure, from being damaged and support the body’s natural ability to restore itself. As well as this, we should drink lots of water and cut down on unhealthy processed sugars and fats, which can easily lead to wrinkles.
Protecting Your Skin
Using sunscreen of at least SPF 15 is one of the most important lifestyle changes you can make when it comes to preventing wrinkles. Many cosmetic products contain antioxidants and other compounds that can protect against damage from the sun, so look for these if buying additional products. We should also try to limit our direct exposure to the sun and where possible, wear protective clothing, like hats and actively look to limit wrinkles.
Exercising and Sleeping
Exercising regularly and getting plenty of sleep plays a huge part in keeping healthy and anti-wrinkle. Exercising helps to increase the circulation of oxygen and nutrients to the skin, and a good nights sleep gives it time to rest and repair itself.
Making Lifestyle Changes
Quitting smoking and limiting your alcohol intake are both important when it comes to preventing wrinkles. Not only do they affect how quickly the cells age, they also strip the skin of its natural drying, so they must be avoided.
By following these simple lifestyle changes, such as eating healthily, protecting our skin from the sun, exercise and getting enough sleep, as well as avoiding cigarettes and limiting our alcohol intake, we can naturally help prevent and slow down the ageing process due to wrinkles.
