How to Look Younger Than Your Age

Looking Younger is everyone's dream

By MudasirPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

When you’re in your 20s and 30s, it seems like aging is something that happens to other people, not you. Even in your 40s, some people still feel the same way. But if you’re approaching middle age, it’s only natural to feel self-conscious about those first few wrinkles and gray hairs—and perhaps even more self-conscious about whether others can see them on your face and body.

Sleep

When you don’t get enough sleep, your body releases a stress hormone called cortisol, which makes it more difficult for you to manage your weight. In fact, research shows that sleep-deprived individuals are at an increased risk of obesity and are prone to overeating. Try getting seven to eight hours every night if you want to lose weight—and look younger than your age!

7 benefits of a good night's sleep

  • Improved mood
  • Clearer thinking
  • Better coordination
  • Improved memory
  • Reduced stress and anxiety
  • Better productivity
  • Prevention against weight gain

We all want to become younger. But how? Here is the solution

Exercise

The fitness industry is a multibillion dollar business, and with good reason. Research shows exercise boosts energy levels, combats stress, relieves depression and more. Exercise also increases endorphins—the body’s feel good chemicals—and raises our overall quality of life. So get off your behind and get moving! If you have limited time, be sure to choose an activity that gets your heart pumping—walking is ideal.

Five Ways to Incorporate Exercise into Your Daily Routine

  • Walking
  • Tai Chi
  • Gardening
  • Dancing
  • Brisk walking

Cleanse your body

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and diet is one of your best defenses against aging. Focus on eating lots of fruits, vegetables and lean proteins while staying away from processed foods. Drinking plenty of water will help flush out toxins from your body, making you feel younger than you really are. And be sure to get in some exercise—it’s not only good for your body but also for your skin.

    Moisturize your skin

    If you’re worried about getting older and looking older, it’s time you start moisturizing your skin. Allowing your skin to become drier causes wrinkles and makes it look older than its years. Find a good lotion that penetrates deep into your skin, leaving you with supple and elasticized skin for a more youthful appearance.

    How to get (and keep) gorgeous, healthy skin

  • Skincare is important
  • What are you washing with?
  • Use moisturizer morning and night.
  • Wear sunscreen
  • Sleep on clean sheets
  • Hydrate properly

    Treat yourself well

    No one is disputing that treating yourself well can lead to a positive mindset, but it can also do wonders for your physical appearance. The old adage you are what you eat isn’t just some cliché—there’s some science behind it. Food plays an important role in maintaining our cellular health and nourishing our skin from within.

    Get Enough Sunlight

    Sunlight allows your skin to produce vitamin D, which has been linked with a number of health benefits. Sunlight also triggers your body’s release of endorphins (feel-good hormones), so make sure you get outside in natural light every day—just be sure not to burn.

    5 Benefits of Getting Enough Sun Light for Healthy Skin

    • Helps prevent migraines
    • Improves mental health
    • Boosts immune system
    • Strengthens bones
    • Keeps your sleep regular

    Herbal remedies may not be viewed as real treatments by some, but there are plenty of natural things you can do to reduce inflammation, boost immunity and heal from health problems. Simply drinking fresh green tea can strengthen your immune system and help you fight infections. It can also protect your brain from age-related decline, so it’s a great habit to get into before you even reach middle age.
