The Truth About Anti Aging Skin Care Treatment - A Simple Guide

Paleo List :

This is an anti aging skin care guide that tells you some key truths you can't avoid:

The Truth About Anti Aging Skin Care Treatment - A Simple Guide

-- Why skin cream works best when you're taking care of your health;

-- What treatments and ingredients are dangerous;

-- What kind of anti aging skin care treatment has shown excellent results in clinical testing.

The skin killers are excessive sun, especially sunburn; smoking; and a diet high in sugar, starchy foods and dairy products.

Now, I'm not a fanatic about the sun. I regularly get some sunshine and fresh air. Sunlight is the natural, free source of abundant vitamin D, which most of us in modern countries are lacking. Vitamin D is essential for good health.

But avoid getting sunburned. That's very important.

Most people, even smokers, will agree that smoking is bad for you. Smoking has been shown to cause aging skin, you probably know that, so no lectures here.

But most people don't know that the food you eat makes a big difference in your skin.

Loren Cordain of the University of Colorado, is a researcher on the Paleo diet our ancestors ate. In many studies, he showed that it's possible today to eat similar foods to our ancestors.

When we do, we can eliminate acne when nothing else has worked. (Dermatologists have been telling people for decades that diet has nothing to do with acne. It turns out those "experts" are dead wrong.)

Just as important -- eating right can reverse aging markers, measured by exact scientific standards!

The foods that make the difference are: lean meats and fish; non-starchy vegetables and fruits; and healthy oils, like omega 3 fish oils, canola oil and olive oil.

The foods that make us fat, diabetic, and struggling with heart disease are the same ones that cause acne and wrinkled, sagging skin. They are refined sugar, fatty meats, dairy products and the starchy foods. That includes milk, cheese, grains, cereals, bread, pasta and potatoes. It also includes most vegetable oils that we used to be told were great for health, like soybean oil, to take the most popular example.

The harsh anti aging skin care treatments include dermabrasion (scraping off the outer layer of skin), chemical peels (irritating the skin so the top layer peels off), and cosmetic surgery. All are relatively expensive, none nourish the skin in any way, all have some nasty possible side effects, and all of them have to be repeated as their effects fade.

I avoid them for all those reasons, and I would be a hypocrite to recommend them.

Some dangerous ingredients, I'm sorry to say, are very common in so-called anti aging skin care treatments:

-- The petroleum byproducts, including mineral oil by any of its names, liquid paraffin, paraffin wax, petrolatum and petroleum. They block pores, encourage acne and rapid skin aging, can cause photo-sensitivity so your skin sunburns more easily, and strip your skin's natural oils, leaving your skin drier than ever.

-- Fragrances are a huge variety of chemicals, many toxic. Many affect the central nervous system, causing irritability and depression. Avoid fragrances in skin creams. A light body spray is much better if you just want to smell nice. It doesn't have to be rubbed onto the skin, which causes much more to be absorbed.

-- Acrylamide, common in skin creams, is suspected of causing breast tumors.

-- Polyethylene glycol (PEG), suspected of being carcinogenic.

There's a more complete list on my website.

What works

The main causes of aging skin are well known and widely studied. Anti aging creams can only work by reversing those causes. The most important are:

-- Loss of collagen and elastin, the key proteins the give skin its firmness and elasticity;

-- Loss of hyaluronan or hyaluronic acid, which you might think of as the "glue" that holds collagen and elastin in youthful, healthy skin.

-- Oxidation damage from free radicals in the skin, when your skin is lacking antioxidants from lack of nourishment.

In fact, every one of those can be reversed.

See my website for some modern ingredients which have shown in clinical trials they actually reverse all the major causes of skin aging and make an effective anti aging skin care treatment.

Learn How to Plan Your Paleo Meals and Really Enjoy the Paleo Diet

Paleo Shopping List :

Do you know that feeling of just starting a new diet, only to be cheating on it within a couple of days because you don't have the right ingredients at home? Or maybe a friend who has invited you to a restaurant where nothing on the menu looks even slightly Paleo friendly?

Learn How to Plan Your Paleo Meals and Really Enjoy the Paleo Diet

Most people on the Paleo diet tend to give up on it after a few days, claiming it is too tough to respect. They "sin" within the first week and figure that if they can not perfectly respect their diet, then what is the point of following it all?

Nothing could be more wrong. First of all, let me tell you that unless you never go out eating at a friends house or at a restaurant, you're going to be cheating on your diet every now and again. If you stop doing this type of thing, your social life will quickly suffer up to the point that your newly gained quality of life thanks to your diet becomes completely overshadowed by your neglected social life.

I'm not telling you to go out and eat whatever is put in front of you. The trick is to plan things right and create a healthy balance in your life.

If you don't have the correct ingredients at home, and end up running to the grocery store after work every night, you'll never make it. The Paleo diet, as with any long term project, requires careful planning. If you wait until the last moment to see what is in your fridge, and then head off to the store browsing through shelves, you will lose a lot of time.

Start by picking a fixed day on which you go out for groceries. Make sure you plan enough time to allow you to complete your shopping in a relaxing manner without having to check your watch every two minutes while waiting in line at the store. Dieting, cooking, picking out ingredients should be fun. It's all part of the Paleo diet. If it helps, our hunter gatherer ancestors spent their entire day doing it.

The night before going out shopping, or on the day itself, plan some time to make a list of all the items you'll need for the entire week. If you don't have a freezer, get one. Buying things in bulk reduces the cost of your groceries in the long run and allows you to avoid going to the store all the time.

In order to make your list, select your recipes in advance. Try to combine them in a manner that allows you to cook with some of the same ingredients during the same week without eating the same meal. This will help you avoid throwing things away.

Go out to the store, and buy whatever you need. When filling up the fridge and the cupboards when you get back, you'll experience that lovely feeling of having completed a crucial step in your diet while having a full fridge! You won't need to go out again this week.

When you cook your meals, try to cook double portions. Off course, if you don't have a freezer, this won't be possible. If you have a life anywhere near as busy as mine, you'll understand the huge comfort of having frozen meals available that have been cooked in advance. You'll spend less time cooking, and if you ever face an empty fridge - you'll have your ready meals ready to save the day!

Simply by planning your meals in advance, keeping a fixed grocery day and preparing double portions, you'll see that respecting the Paleo diet on day to day basis is much easier.

And if a friend does invite you over, and you find yourself in a restaurant where things are not looking very Paleo friendly, pick out the best thing you can find. You'll feel a lot less guilty when you know that you can return to your Paleo friendly filled fridge next day.

The Paleo diet in the long run doesn't get broken because people go to a restaurant every now and then - it gets broken because people don't plan it into their daily lives.

Especially with Paleo, where many ingredients can be quite specific, planning your meals and recipes is key to enjoing the diet while leading a relaxing and healthy day to day life.
