You are at a reunion party with classmates you have not seen for years and saw a familiar face.
You recall your classmate used to look old and tired.
Now, they glow from within. You wonder how they did it.
Has this happened to you before?
Want to know the best part?
You too, can acheive the same results.
Here’s what you can do:
1. Cut down the Sugar
Sugar destroys collagen.
It makes the elastin in our collagen stiff, dry, and brittle causing fine lines, wrinkles, and saggy skin. Our aging process speeds up when we consume more sugar.
Cut back on the soda and replace it with Kombucha tea which contains more probiotics. Replace sugary desserts with fresh fruit, plain yogurt, and dark chocolate which are higher in antioxidants.
2. Wear a sunscreen
Do you know that the ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun cause major damage to the skin?
The outer layer of our skin is protected by a cell that contains the pigment melanin. Without sunscreen, the melanin will burn the skin and reduce its elasticity causing premature aging.
3. Eat a healthy diet
Studies have shown that eating a high nutrient diet helps to regenerate skin cells, reduce wrinkles, and help the body to fight against UV rays.
Load up with high Vitamin C-rich foods such as fruits and vegetables and reap the benefits today.
4. Increase your resistance training and exercise regularly
As we age, our body loses muscles and strength. This is a condition known as Sarcopenia. This is why older people tend to have issues maintaining their daily activities. We can do simple resistance training to maintain our strength and power. When we perspire through exercise, it also helps to remove toxins from our bodies and reduces our susceptibility to diseases.

5. Give yourself a facial Gua Sha in the comfort of your own home
If you have not heard of it, Gua Sha is an ancient Chinese technique that uses a scraping tool to improve your blood circulation.
Do you know that every point on our face is related to a certain organ and reflects our health condition? For example, having crow’s feet wrinkle may mean there is insufficient Qi in our blood.
By massaging these points, we can activate our facial muscles, improve blood circulation and bring a natural glow to our face to look younger.
