Foods that you can avoid to keep a youthful complexion
Your mother always told you to stay out of the sun if you want to avoid aging skin. But it's not only the sun that's a problem. Here are a few foods and drinks to avoid if you want to keep your youthful complexion ' but be warned, if you're anything like me, this list won't make for happy reading!
Firstly, skip dessert: Sugar's not only bad for your teeth and your heart, it can have a big impact on aging your skin, too. Watch out for sweet drinks ' even 'healthy' fruit juices are often packed full of sugars and you definitely want to avoid sodas (but you already knew that).
If you like a drink, you're in for another shock: Alcohol ages you, too! And, just a few weeks after the holidays, you'll still remember a blissful month of the sweetest holiday drinks, such as eggnogs and buck's fizz, which with their high sugar and alcohol content will have been a double-whammy for your skin. If you simply must unwind with a glass in the evening, stick to dry wines and keep away from the cocktails. Your liver and skin will thank you!
We all like a splash of oil in our cooking, but sticking to non-refined, non-processed oils such as olive oil and oils made from nuts and seeds won't only be better for your skin than corn or soybean oil, your food will also taste better!
In our 24/7 culture, it's hard to resist an extra cup of coffee or two in the mornings. Unfortunately, while it might help keep you focused for an hour longer, the caffeine in that espresso will stress you out, making you look older and you will probably feel it, too. Give yourself a break: Swap the coffee break for an herbal tea and relax! (By the way, energy drinks are even worse than coffee ' caffeine and sugar.)
Fatty, salty foods are definitely a no-no. As well as being associated with high blood pressure, heart disease and all other kinds of nastiness, these two combined will wreck your skin in no time. You can easily cut back on your fat and salt by drinking skimmed-milk and other low-fat dairy products and thinking twice before reaching for the salt shaker.
Fortunately, even if you can't keep yourself away from everything on this list, there's help at hand: eraclea's Reconstructing Cream will moisturize your skin while also exfoliating it, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and lines. Alpha hydroxy acids help counteract the effects of sun-damage and give you a brighter complexion.
