Anti-Aging Goal Achieved Through Proper Diet And Products

By Edith M. Dodge


Wrinkles have a way of making young skin look old and imperfect. There is a way to combat this problem by eating more foods that are rich in essential fatty acids, proteins and antioxidants.

One of the best sources of anti-aging foods is Salmon; it is tasty and provides what you need. Although, when you are buying Salmon it is best to go for the Wild Pacific Salmon instead of the Atlantic salmon because the latter doesn't have as many antioxidants as its Pacific counterpart. Atlantic salmon also has high concentrations of PCB which is considered carcinogenic.

For tighter skin you may want to consider taking fish oil supplements. There has been research done which shows at ten percent improvement in the condition of the skin when these are consumed.

Weakened collagen fibers are what produce wrinkles. You can prevent this from happening by eating a lot of fruits that are rich in vitamin C to help prevent this breakdown of collagen and keep these fibers strong.

To help prevent and reduce damage to your skin caused by the sun, tomatoes and green tea are excellent sources of antioxidants. Besides reminding you of Christmas because of their apparent colors, they are a healthy choice when it comes to healthier skin.

There is some research being done on soy but it is inconclusive at this time. Soy contains a lot of proteins which are good for the skin and help to prevent wrinkles and keep it smooth.

Carbohydrates are bad for any diet and should be eliminated altogether. It would take too long to explain all the reasons why they should be avoided besides the damaging effect they can have on your skin. When you eliminate these and make healthier choices for your diet, you will have great skin and improved general health.

As an alternative some use anti-aging creams. Some of these creams contain the same vitamins and nutrients found in the above mentioned foods only the stomach is left out of the anti-aging process. Scientists have proven this method to be effective.
