So what can you do to have healthier skin regardless of skin type and personal preferences?
- EAT. healthy foods. Load up on leafy greens, fruits and berries! Antioxidants combat free radicals and help slow and prevent the signs of aging. Lay off the sugar! Sugar binds to collagen and promotes wrinkles. Check out the recipe for the chicken mango salad I've shared below! It's packed with antioxidant fighting ingredients like leafy greens, protein and mango.
- SLEEP. This really matters! During the day, your skin is protecting you from pathogens and helping to stabilize your body temperature. However, once you fall asleep, your skin is busy making collagen and elastin, the skin’s connective tissue responsible for firmness, tone and elasticity. Don’t shortchange yourself!
- RELAX. Reduce stress and keep a lid on cortisol. This hormone breaks down collagen and elastin and can lead to other skin conditions. Make time in your day for a little zen! Yoga anyone?
- PROTECT. Choose a brand of quality skincare you like and be sure to get broad spectrum coverage. This means the product will protect you against BOTH UVB and UVA rays. (UVB rays burn skin, and UVA rays can cause age-related damage.) Both have been linked to skin cancer.
