We all want to do what we can to feel younger as we age, but there are things we can easily do so we continue to look younger as well. There are some bad habits to avoid that make us age faster.
First, quit smoking – all kinds, including vaping, are bad for your skin.
As the days get longer, avoid hanging out in the sun – and make sure you apply sunscreen when you do go out.
Change your diet so you’re not loaded down with lots of sugar and saturated fats that make skin age faster. Plus, make sure you exercise, you help keep muscle and bone density.
Too much alcohol will also damage cells that accelerates aging. And reduce stress in your life and try to get a good night’s sleep – both will help you look younger as you’re more relaxed and rested.
Finally – brush your teeth – gingivitis has been linked to heart disease, and nicer teeth certainly help with your appearance!
