3 Best Anti-Aging Skin Care Tips To Improve Your Looks

1. Drink Plenty of Water

Water is very important for our body's healing processes. Failing to drink water could do more harm than good to your skin. Failing to drink enough water is one thing that can quickly begin to age your skin. This is especially true since the dryer you are beneath the surface of your skin, the more it is likely to damage the top layer of your skin.

It is recommended you drink enough water daily - at least 8 glasses of water. Several things you will notice if you fail to drink enough water or without proper hydration, are the wrinkles on your arms and hands. You will also notice the dryness in and around your elbows and heels.

If you have wrinkles on your face, it is never too late to slow down your aging process. You can start to heal the damages already done and improve your looks and feel good. Even if you don't like to drink water force yourself to drink at least 8 glasses of water every day.

2. Get Plenty of Vitamin C and E

There are several environmental factors that contribute to your skin aging. For instance

• Harsh chemicals
• Air Pollution
• Cigarette smoke
• Plant Herbicides
• And other environmental pollutants

Studies indicate that it takes a longer time for the environmental pollutants to have an effect on your skin. The negative impact on the skin breaks down the living cells causing major problems. This damage affects the elasticity and collagen of your skin causing your skin to droop and produce more wrinkles.

Vitamin C and E helps the skin by reducing the damages causes by these pollutants. Get plenty of vitamin C and E from eating plenty foods high in vitamins or at least you could supplement your diet with vitamin C and E capsules.

3. Avoid the Hot Sun

Exposing your skin to too much sunlight will have a profound effect on it. It can cause premature skin aging, skin cancer, and other skin conditions. However, it doesn't mean you cannot enjoy the sunlight. But you should be more careful about the sun exposure. Use sunscreens to reduce the harmful effect of the UV radiation.

With the above anti-aging skin care tips, you can improve your skin appearance. Apart from the tips given above, you can find several others to help you fight skin aging. You just have to learn how and take action. Know what works for you and stick it.

How To Add Fun To Growing Old

At an event I spoke at recently, I was espousing the multi-benefits of the 5Fs (Fitness, Food, Friendship, Future, and Finances) toward leading a longer, better life. A ninety-two year old in the audience reckoned that there should be a 6th F - FUN. She identified regular doses of fun as a major contributor to her longevity. Despite my response that FUN is generally considered to be linked to Friendships and associated relationships, she wasn't convinced and maintained that there should be 6Fs.
Her position in relation to FUN got me thinking. Away from the crowd, I googled 'Fun & Ageing'. My search didn't deliver much. I found plenty about Fitness, Food, Finances (particularly, how much you need to have enough stashed away for a rainy day), Future (as in, always having something to look forward to), and Friendship, but zit about putting some fun into growing old.
This absence got me thinking. It's yesterday's news that two-thirds of people who ever lived past 65 years are alive today. So, for a large, and increasing, number of people, longevity is a new chapter in life. Yet, the focus of much of research is more on survival than how to get the most from this new chapter - including, of course, how to have fun.
On further reflection, I thought what I do for fun.

• I have fun going for a run. (My wife prefers swimming.)
• I have fun catching up with others at the club. (Groucho Marx wouldn't join a club that would have him as a member.)
• I have fun playing with my grandkids. (A friend of mine reckons George Burns got it right when he advocated having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family - in another city.)

And the list goes on and on. We're all different. What one person finds fun may not appeal to another. So, there can be no one recipe for how to have fun.
Fun involves attitude, and attitude is a choice. You can have fun if you choose to, and conversely. Some attitudinal questions could include:

• Is it FUN to be alive? (If not, choose to do something about it.)
• Am I a FUN person to be with? (If not, choose to do something about it.)
• Am I receiving my daily dose of FUN? (If not, choose to do something about it.)
• Am I getting FUN out of being in my current group? (If not, choose to do something about it.)

We know that choosing attitudes (and goals) motivates toward taking some action. It's only then that success can be achieved (namely, progressing from where you are to where you want to be). Success, of course, is an essential precursor to leading a satisfying life. So, if you want to have fun in your life, it will involve making a choice (or choices).
If you'd like to explore further adding some fun to your life, Google 'Fun Theory'. The gist of The Fun Theory is that if you want to change behaviour, make it fun: when people start having fun, their behaviour is likely to change. Not only will you be entertained by the examples but also see how having fun can be catching: having fun can even create fun for others.

Are You Ready for Life?

Let us start with a quiz relative to ageing and mortality.

Let us say you were living in 1900. How long could you expect to live?

40

50

60

Well, we will come back to the quiz and answer it, but the point is that however long you lived in the last century, you are going to live longer, much longer today, and even longer tomorrow. You see, there are several factors that are at work lengthening our lives, for men, women and children. What are these factors?

• Medical sciences has scored numerous "wins" over both common and uncommon diseases that took lives in the past 100+ years. Can you imagine that influenza, our common flu, could be an epidemic, like plague? Talking of plague that has been eradicated. Same for Tuberculosis, Whooping cough, Diarrhea and certain forms of cancer.


• As you know, children have been vulnerable to both viral and bacteria related diseases for centuries. Their immune system has not fully developed so is incapable of taking care of even the simplest forms of epidemics because it has not yet built up sufficient antibodies. Modern medicine has cured several of these diseases from common influenza virus to polio and tuberculosis. Children are living to be adults and living healthier.


• Thanks to education and awareness, individuals all over the world have become better at taking care of their bodies and internal systems.

Now for the quiz. How long could you expect to live in 1900?

The answer is: 46 years. Compare that to 2011 when the life expectancy was 78 years!

My point is that you will live a long, long time after you retire. This is particularly true of young men and women reaching adulthood today.

The impact of this particular statistic is far reaching. Can you save enough? Will Government help you and how much? Do you expect your children to care for you? Are your retirement savings enough? How about health coverage? These are hard but necessary questions to ask yourself, your partner and your family and of course your physician.

While I could write several chapters on the financial issues, the focus of this article is simply this: how can you live comfortably and in good health, knowing that you have several decades ahead of you. Here are some tips.

1. Be aware of your body and its messages. Without turning into a hypochondriac, you can make sure you get regular checkups and use reasonable, common-sense remedies if you need them. Forget about those "detoxins" and "homeophathic" and "herbal" remedies. Most of them do not work. You see what the scammers who sell you these pills and syrups are hoping is that you are in the 95% majority that does not require acute remediation for a condition. Your body has a habit of taking abuse so when you actually start living healthy, it rewards you. You may think it is the pills, actually it is your lifestyle.


2. Eat less than you want. A full belly makes you lazy.


3. Exercise at least 3 days a week, 45 minutes each day. Preferably 5 days.


4. Manage your stress. Remember, worry only about things you can control. And if you control something, be a leader in driving it to work for you.


5. Have a positive disposition.


6. Get involved in projects in something creative.

Good luck!

How Men Can Age Gracefully

Ageing is something that all humans, men and women, have to undergo, whether they like it or not. It is certainly inescapable and it's bound to happen when the right time comes. What makes it different for every person is the way they accept this change.

Of course, there are those who look forward for this time in their life. These people have an easier time accepting and welcoming the changes in their hair, skin, as well as energy. On the other hand, there are folks who would do everything they can just to get away from these drastic transformations. Such kinds of individuals aim to stay and look as young as they can. Some even go to the extent of undergoing medical operations or surgeries to accomplish this goal. Overall, the current trend these days is to appear, feel and remain young.

Definitely, youthfulness coupled with enormous energy is an advantage. Take famous female celebrities such as Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lopez, Sandra Bullock, and also Halle Berry. These women give other younger actors a run for their money. Men like Johnny Deep, Brad Pitt and Will Smith, on the contrary, are dominating the competition when it comes to the sexiest man living on Earth. The common denominator for all these personalities is their drive to retain their youthfulness. They manage their selves well. They do work outs and they strictly adhere to a healthy regimen. They undertake all of these things as they certainly know that having and maintaining a youthful glow and energy will keep them on the limelight.

According to studies, women are more aggressive when it comes to battling ageing. They are the ones who usually buy cosmetic products as well as undergo medical procedures. But lately, more and more men are becoming interested in these beauty items and methods. But unlike women who are more drawn to the aesthetic impact of maturing, men are more anxious about how their physiques will have a hard time undertaking activities that they usually accomplish fast.

As maintained by researches, one of the apparent signs of ageing is decreased energy. Once people age, they get worn out quicker. Another is the difficulty in reducing body fats as well as building muscles even though you are undergoing a rigorous training.

The culprit behind these transformations men experience is low testosterone levels. As explained by Science, once puberty is over, these hormones gradually decrease in quantity. And as man ages, the level continues to drop significantly. As a result, men will find it hard to carry out undertakings that they typically do easily. They have to double their effort so they can undertake the usual things they do.

However, this is certainly tiring as well as frustrating - doubling up your efforts every time you do something. The great news is that there are remedies to such problem and it's quite simple - boost the testosterone level.

Health professionals say you can increase this hormone's level by taking in products that has an Oyster infusion. This ingredient is rich in zinc and ginseng. These two elements can elevate the testosterone number in a man's body and it can likewise help in cell development. Aside from this, it is also highly advisable to take in Fenugreek as it is the one that aids in stabilizing the testosterone level and also D-aspartic acid. Men can also take food items reach in vitamin B6 as well as magnesium.

What's It Take To Be Happy?

I'm not into completing surveys and questionnaires. When they appear on my screen, I usually bin-them. For some reason, however, I decided to respond to one from the World Values Survey. Now, I know that there is debate about the methodologies of international surveys of happiness, but given that this seemed like a reputable research project and all I was being asked was to identify the world's happiest country, I oped to give it a go.

Amazing! Even allowing for the fact that the data being used was from 2010, my selection was way-off. According to World Values Survey, the country that came in first was Nigeria. I had to double-check, Nigeria was considered to be the world's happiest country.

I don't consider myself a sore-loser, but I decided to check-out further this selection. I found that approximately 92% of the population of Nigeria live on less than $2-a-day. I also learned that, according to mental health researchers, anxiety disorders and depression are far less common in so-called poorer countries, for which Nigeria would certainly qualify.

Enough, already! How could this finding in relation to Nigeria be justified?

Perhaps the people's expectations are lower? Or maybe happiness is relative: when people aren't surrounded by examples of more pleasant lifestyles, they don't rank their own situation so poorly? The problem with questions like these is that they seem to imply that people doing it tough don't know any better. There are many examples that show this interpretation is definitely not the case.

I remember one of the realisations made by Holocaust-survivor Viktor Frankl when he claimed that you can only comment on something, in his case motivation, when you are stripped of everything, including life itself (death might have been a better alternative to eking out an existence in a death camp). Whether it's forced interment, poverty, hunger, or whatever, facing the reality of one's own vulnerability can have unexpected benefits.

I don't know if increased feelings of vulnerability necessarily leads to happiness. We do know, however, that ageing is usually involves a shift from feeling bulletproof to being aware of one's own vulnerability. And this shift seems to happen in the blink of an eye. There's also an increasing amount of data to show that feelings of happiness increases with ageing. As people age, there is generally a decrease in importance of 'badges' such as wearing the right brands, job titles, and other status symbols. It seems that, when there's less to latch onto, there are choices you don't have to make, and this changes things whether you're living in Nigeria or New York.

Back in the fifth and sixth centuries BCE, Heraclitus assured us that the only thing that is constant is change. No doubt that applies to our views on happiness, too.

A Must-Read For Baby Boomers

History is a great teacher. When we experience an event that's new to us, chances are that others before us have been there and done that. So, when we're faced with a challenge, we check out what those others did, make any necessary adaptations, and re-introduce or implement. How straightforward can you get?

But what if something is new: it's never happened before?

This is a situation facing the current 'boomer generation'. Never before in history has there been such a large percentage of the population reaching this (3rd) stage of their lives. Given that this group has adopted the stance: if it doesn't exist, invent it, what will you do?

There are four main options open to boomers: sit-tight, do as little as possible, and go with the flow; return to a world with which they're familiar; consider the opportunities and explore new frontiers; adopt a smorgasbord-approach and sample a bit of everything.

Sitting-tight, doing next-to nothing, and going with the flow involves just that. The assumption is that someone else will take care of things: 'I've brought-up a family, paid taxes all of my life, now it's time that someone else looked after me'. Returning to a world that they're familiar with is a predictable human response. Consider, for example, when people lose their jobs, they're quick to re-enter the workforce doing a similar thing to what they've previously done. Whether it's topping-up their nest-egg, seeking companionship, feeling valued, or whatever, a return to the security and predictability of the past is not uncommon. Exploring new frontiers is a third option. This choice takes substantial resolve, with loads of support from those sharing-in the gain (or pain). A smorgasbord-approach enables consideration of all possibilities.

All four options have their upsides and downsides.

The upside of option one is that, if it can deliver the desired outcomes, it's hassle-free. After all, if in the past you've been successful in getting others to do something in your interests, why not expect that this will continue? The upside of option two, if you're returning to the workplace, you're probably a different person from the one who exited this world: your motivation has changed. If this is the case, a new world awaits you. The upside of option three is that opportunities abound. Choosing the one that suits you best could be your toughest challenge. And the upside of option four is that being able to pick-and-choose is a great enabler.

The downside of sitting-tight, doing nothing, and going with the flow is that history has taught us that the one person we can rely on most is ourselves. Counting-on someone else to come to our aid and support us is a big gamble. The downside of doing what you've always done is that the best you can hope for is that you'll continue to get what you've always got. Epictetus told us that nearly 2,000 years-ago. And that's OK if you're satisfied with what you get. The obvious downside of seizing the day, grasping the opportunity, and all that inspirational stuff is that it's 'cold' outside. Not only are there not many people who choose this option but also achieving success can be tough-going. The downside of any smorgasbord is that you have to select from what's on offer: other people's left-overs, even

What we're experiencing is new territory for all of us: no one has been here, before. There can be no one, best option. I am prepared to predict, however, that this 'bulge' that we boomers are part of, will result in a few changes.

• No governments will be able to provide the support (welfare and health, for example) required by an ageing population.
• Not only does age discrimination exist now, but it will also increase.
• One's use-by date will continue to be decided by someone other than you.
• There will be an increase in the number of people and agencies that want to get in the driver's seat of your life.
• What you're worth in your eyes will be significantly different from what others are prepared to pay.
• Lessons learned from The School of Hard Knocks may be life-changing, but don't expect anyone else to to give a damn ('I care, but not that much').
• Most change will be incremental (muddling-through), rather than critical. Today will be pretty much the same as yesterday.
