Who doesn’t want to look younger and
feel better!
With that
in mind, how do we age?
There’s
cellular damage that occurs when our own cells divide more rapidly and finally
die off. The cells can be affected by
genetics, but more importantly there are extrinsic factors (namely our
environment that can trigger accelerated aging i.e., stress, smoking, drinking,
junk food, and caffeine[1]).
Yes, too
much coffee can do it. Coffee dehydrates our bodies and slows down wound
healing. It can also cause toxic buildup, inflammation, and collagen loss. This
can lead to redness, acne, and wrinkles.
Furthermore,
if you consume energy drinks (e.g., Monster, Red Bull), or drink too much
coffee, you may consider a healthy substitution. I like Teecino. It’s coffee
flavored tea, that can give you a natural energy boost from nutrients, not
stimulants.
In addition,
too much processed sugar ages our skin due to glycation.[2]
This is where sugar in the bloodstream binds to proteins, lipids (fats) and
DNA, forming harmful new molecules called AGEs (advanced glycation end
products). In essence, chronic high blood sugar, like in uncontrolled diabetes,
can lead to accelerated aging.
So, if you
have a sweet tooth check out my Wellness Wednesday: How to Curb
your Sweet Tooth in early Dec 2021.
The good
news is we can control what we put into our bodies.
In addition,
activity helps us look younger by improving blood flow and building strong
muscles. So, get to Krav at least twice a week and MOVE daily, STRETCH &
RELAX. It does the body good!
