How to Make Skin Look
Younger
Let's face it. If you want to know how to make skin look younger, you
need to know what causes it to look older. Most skincare products do not
address the primary causes of an aged appearance, so obviously, they are
ineffective.
The primary causes of an aged appearance are free radical damage,
reduced production of skin cells and elastic fibers and low levels of
hyaluronic acid. Chronic inflammation also plays a role. There are
creams that can help wit that, but avoiding chronic inflammation usually
means changing the type of cosmetics and other skincare products that
you use.
If a cleanser burns or stings, it is causing inflammation. If you
regularly use exfoliants or face scrubs, you are damaging your skin's
health and this will negatively affect your appearance, as time goes by.
Ingredients that cause allergic reactions in some people are not safe
for others to use, either. The big cosmetic companies have gotten away
with including known toxins, allergens and irritants for years, by
blaming adverse reactions on skin sensitivity, leading people to believe
that it's their fault for having sensitive skin.
Since avoiding inflammation is a big part of how to make skin look
younger, you need to avoid ingredients that are common allergens, toxins
and irritants. They include petrolatum, mineral oil, paraffin, parabens,
added fragrance, all artificial preservatives and all petrochemicals.
The list of petrochemicals that are included in skincare products is too
long to include in this article. The best way to find products that do
not contain them is to look for all-natural ingredients.
No one knows why older skin has lower levels of hyaluronic acid, but
we do know that enzymatic activity that breaks down the important
compound increases with age. Extracts from wakame kelp have been shown
to inhibit that enzymatic activity by 52% over the course of five days.
Many people have said that using wakame was how to make skin look
younger and keep it beautiful. Now science has proven them correct.
Question: Can someone give me advice for an for anti-aging lifestyle, including supplements & best foods?

Tink, I like the grateful heart part. I need to work on that, as I am too close to my worries right now.

5-9 servings or more of fruits and vegetables, 6-11 servings a day of whole grains (bear in mind, those serving numbers are based on a child serving size - so a serving of fruit is 4 ounces of fruit juice for example) 30-60 minutes a day of physical activity, don't smoke, drink in moderation if at all, wear sunscreen, floss your teeth after brushing twice daily, have a physical done at regular intervals according to age related guidelines, wash your hands frequently during cold and flu season, have a set sleep schedule, reduce stress, don't take yourself too seriously, enjoy life and keep a grateful heart.

If you find it's hard to get your fruit and vegetable servings everyday, I'd suggest you make a green smoothie in the morning. I have been making them for 8 months now and the changes have been dramatic. I suggest a company called Youngevity. They make supplements I've been using to help strengthen bones, clear skin and blemishes, and heal my body. A drink Youngevity may not supply is a drink called Tangy Tangerine. It's an excellent source of vitamins, fruits, and vegetables that keep you healthy and young. I had to use these products because i'm at a young age and already had many health problems. But after using these my life has changed and I'm healthier than I've ever been. I strongly recommend this. Here's the link to Youngevity: youngevity.com/

You can't halt the aging process. However, you can prevent premature problems if that's what you mean. Keep as close to your ideal weight as possible; exercise; eat healthily; don't smoke; keep well within the recommended alcohol limits; get adequate sleep; don't spend excess time in the sun or use sun beds, -but at the same time do spend time outdoors. How well you age, etc is down to lifestyle choices and genetics.

There's a very good on-line video from the Osler Centre for Integrated Medicine, titled "Healthy Aging ". It is informative and covers what you can and can't do, including lifestyle and eating, with lots of specifics. youtube.com/ watch?v= iexfpRGZLbY
