Anti-Aging Tips

This is my first post and I have decided to begin with tips for aging skin. From your 20's onwards your skin will start to lose it's elasticity and gradually become less firm and plump. This is inevitable, it is a natural progression, but it is easy to understand why women panic at the first signs of aging. There are a lot of things that you can do to slow down the aging process and the sooner you start the better.

Here I am going to tell you exactly what you should be doing to keep your skin as fresh and youthful as possible.

Drink at least 6-8 glasses of water a day, this keeps your skin hydrated and flushes out toxins from your body.

Take a silica complex supplement every day, silica is a naturally occurring mineral in your body and is vital for healthy skin, hair and nails.

If you are buying an anti-aging cream look for these ingredients ; 15% glycolic acid, alpha hydroxy acid, and retin A, these are key for rejuvenating aging skin.

Take an omega - 3 Fatty Acid supplement or even better eat raw nuts and oily fish 2-3 times a week. Omega - 3 acts as a anti-inflammatory and is excellent for your skin.

Eat green and red vegetables, these contain natural nutrients and anti-oxidants that prevent the formation of free radicals which damage cells and contribute to skin aging. The high water content of these vegetables also helps keep your skin hydrated.

Limit your sugar intake, sugar acts as an oxidant, having the opposite effect to an anti - oxidant.

If you follow these simple tips you will see a fantastic difference in your skin and keep your youthful look for longer.
