EDITOR’S PICK:
Although, ageing is a natural phenomenon of man’s existence that cannot be avoided; but it can be slowed by certain lifestyles, especially the ones aimed at improving one’s health.
One cannot completely prevent himself or herself from ageing, however; it can be reduced by adopting practices that are targeted toward improving the appearance.
1. Eat healthily and avoid the excessive consumption of high cholesterol meals.
Food plays a very important role in one’s appearance. The excessive consumption of fatty and carbohydrate meals in their large proportion can amount to obesity. To maintain a youthful and healthy appearance, it is recommended to eat more protein, vegetables and fruity meals. Consuming meals with high cholesterol can distort the proper functioning of the body.
2. Avoid the intake of harmful intoxicating substances or drugs.
The excessive consumption of alcohol and other hard substances like cocaine, weed, marijuana and others can amount to premature ageing. These substances contain toxins which dehydrate the body and make the skin rough, dry and older.
3. Exercise regularly
Engaging in regular exercise is a self-therapy that can significantly prevent anti-ageing. Apart from appearing youthful by the act of exercising, it will also improve your vascular-respiratory system and blood circulation. Regular exercise will eradicate wastes from the body through the skin pores.
4. Always keep hydrated and bathe regularly
Drinking enough water has its way of making a person appear healthy. Water contains antioxidant elements which help to flush out toxins from the body and keep the skin hydrated. The practice of bathing regularly with clean water can also facilitate the moisturization of the skin which will slow down ageing.

5. Avoid cosmetic products that irritate or affect the skin
Studies have shown that some skin care products contain harmful chemicals that can irritate the skin and lead to quick ageing. Using adulterated and heavily chemicalized creams and lotion can amount to skin burns and unpleasant colouration which might affect its texture.
