How To Look Younger and Live Longer

By Juanita A. Davenport

Managing your health is the most important foundation so you can start looking younger (and stay young looking.) I hope you don't expect a quick fix to a long-term solution to the problem of aging. However, you will have to change a few old habits in the way you live your life.

Furthermore, there are major benefits of managing your health, as I mentioned. If "looking younger" than your biological age is a priority then the processes of seeking complete physical, social and mental well-being should also become important! It is cool to be healthy and youthful these days -- not merely be free of disease, sickness, or wear and tear.

Want to look healthier and younger? The 4 main ways are to eat right, exercise, reduce stress, and stop destroying the body with tobacco, alcohol and drugs. Namely, study what others are doing so you can best take care of your body and therefore your beauty will shine through.

For one thing you can start looking younger by reducing free radicals in your life. Free radicals cause cells to die. For the most part free radicals are caused by environmental factors such as pollution: radiation, cigarette smoke and herbicides. The body needs a defense system of antioxidants -- to prevent free radical damage.

Actually you can triumph over free radicals and become healthy by eating 5-8 servings of anti-oxidant rich fruits and vegetables every day. Previously people would take large dosages of vitamins and minerals as a means of looking younger. Now the trend is to go with the natural way of getting healthy and looking young. Particularly this change to fresh fruits can benefit your beauty as well as your health!

What is an antioxidant? It is an enzyme, as vitamin E, that is capable of counteracting the damaging effects of oxidation in the body tissues. They help the body recover from free-radical damage. Likewise, if you work with your body, you will start growing younger. It is wonderful to feel good again and you do this by increasing your consumption of organic products and using alternative health practices.

Discovering how to look younger and live longer is as close as your kitchen. You can take simple easy steps toward better health and a more youthful, more expressive you.
