Anti-Aging Through Livestyle Changes

1) Eat a diet rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin B and E. Those nutrients improve the skin. Get a diet mostly of high fiber foods, lots of fruits and vegetables, whole grain foods, and low fat. Foods high in vitamin A are carrots, cantaloupes, winter squash, sweet potatoes, sweet red peppers, apricots, and mangoes help replenish the skin cells, keeping the skin supple and prevents dryness. vitamin C improves the blood supply to the skin and aids in forming the protein collagen, which gives the skin a smooth youthful appearance. Foods rich in vitamin C are citrus fruits and juices, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, snow peas, watermelon, honeydew melon, broccoli, and tomatoes. Nutrients found in vitamin B complex and vitamin E help the aging process by preventing scaling and cracking of the skin and protecting skin cells from abnormal oxidation.

Food sources of vitamin E include dried beans, vegetable oils, butter, and green leafy vegetables.

There are numerous ways to facilitate relaxation: Getting a massage, listening to music, going in hot tubs, meditation, exercise, yoga or t'ai chi. One of the most popular and successful techniques is tensing and relaxing individual muscle groups. This can be done sitting in chairs or laying on the ground. Start with your feet, tensing and relaxing your toes for 10 seconds at a time. Then proceed upward to your calf muscles, thigh muscles, shoulder and neck muscles. Finish up with your facial muscles. After a few days of progressive muscle relaxation, you will begin to recognize any areas that were tense and begin to relax them.
