A glowing and youthful appearance is one of the first things you think you should be aiming for, but in reality it is your mindset that you need to alter. While it may be great to look in the mirror and see a younger version of yourself looking back, if you don’t have the energy to walk a mile, this will put a stop to that anti-ageing plan. Being young doesn’t begin and end with wrinkle-free skin, so look to adapt other areas of your lifestyle as well.
Start by improving your fitness – whether you join a gym or start exercising at home several times a week, increasing your physical activity will do wonders for your vitality. Not only will it help you feel younger, but it will also help you burn calories, burn fat and increase the circulation of blood around the body to provide your skin with that youthful glow you’re craving.
A balanced diet that is rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants is important to ensure your body has all the nutrients it needs to stay healthy. It also works as a very effective anti-ageing treatment too! Vitamins A, C and E are all great for improving the skin’s condition, and can be found in fruit, vegetables, nuts and seed. Likewise, calcium is brilliant for creating healthy bones and teeth and you can get this from yoghurt, milk and cheese. Make sure you keep your body hydrated with plenty of water too, to promote clear, healthy skin. Finally, you can boost your efforts with the use of anti-ageing products but aim for natural treatments wherever possible to avoid putting harsh chemicals on your skin.
