The word "prejuvenation" is new to most people. It basically refers to things we can do for ourselves when we are young to maintain our youth. Some of these things maintain the youth of the body and some maintain the youth of the face. In toll, these practices can contribute to an optimized quality of life. Below I will list my ten favorite anti-aging practices.
Daily use of sunblock SPF30 or greater
This one is a no-brainer. Sunblock usage reduces the skin's exposure to damaging UV radiation. Consistent use of physical (not chemical) sunblock will provide long-term benefits in the form of fewer wrinkles and sunspots that could mar the skin's youthful appearance.
Daily intake of oral Vitamin C supplements
Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that is the most important vitamin involved in the formation of healthy collagen. Vitamin C is commonly found in a dietary form in foods such as the following: broccoli, cantaloupe, cauliflower, kale, kiwi, orange juice, papaya, red, green, or yellow pepper, sweet potato, strawberries, and tomatoes.
Get a healthy dose of omegas in your diet
Many people enjoy fish in their diet. However, it is impossible to eat enough fish on a daily basis to get a healthy amount of omega fatty acid intake. Fish oil supplements in the amount of 1000-2000mg daily have been found to be very important for psychiatric health, eye health, brain growth, and early development during pregnancy, improving cardiac risk factors, reducing symptoms of ADHD in children, reducing inflammation, reducing symptoms of metabolic syndrome, improving age-related mental decline and Alzheimer's and keeping skin healthy and pliable.
Stop smoking
It is well known that smoking contributes to multiple different disease states. As far as your skin is concerned, the chemicals in smoke contribute to damage to the skin topically and via increasing levels of antioxidants. The act of smoking also creates motion wrinkles around the mouth ("smoker's lines").
Decrease your sugar intake
A diet high in sugar is very damaging to the skin. It leads to glycosylation of the cell membrane. Collagen and elastin are two important proteins that are particularly susceptible to glycosylation. Damage to these proteins leads to sallow, less plump, and more wrinkled/sagging skin.
Engage in vigorous exercise for at least 30 minutes a day
Our increasingly busy personal and professional lives make it difficult to get to the gym for many people. Exercise often gets neglected. It is important to get at least 30 minutes of vigorous exercise per day. Besides the cardiovascular benefits, exercise is associated with the production of hormones that provides a sense of well-being, and that help with sleep. Exercise is associated with reduced levels of obesity and can prevent yo-yo weight changes that result in loose skin.
