Aging And Anti Aging The Fact And Fiction... By: Graham Waite..
You start to experience aging within minutes of being born your body starts to change and from then on until the day you die your body will be constantly changing initially due to development and then through aging.
This means that body has already to start to function less effectively.The body makes these changes on it's own which at this stage most people will hardly notice but are the first indicators of the body starting to slowly age.
The musculoskeletal system is the first area that most age related diseases and illnesses start. For this reason once, a person turns 35 years of age regardless of their activities, athletic nature, they become more likely to be effected by aging. Still it is possible to reduce such age related diseases and ilnesses by avoiding injuries to the muscles and joints, and living a healthy life.
This can be achieved by where possible preventing accidental damage, abuse such as drinking or taking drugs to excess and also smoking. Your health can be improved by increased levels of exercise, healthy eating adopting a positive outlook on life and hanging aound with positive people.
Regular medical check ups can have their benefits also. When discussing your health with your medical practitioner make sure that he is fully appraised of all the facts including any know family history of illness and disease especially any that family members may have suffered in old age.
As noted earlier, our body starts to deteriorate due to aging by age 35, also our sensory organs may also start to take a rain check. At this time, the eyes may become affected and you might find it difficult to focus on objects up close. In medical terms, this condition is known as presbyopia.
It is not uncommon to find people everywhere wearing glasses and contact lenses beyond the age of 40. In America it is estimated around 90 million people suffer from presbyopia. But equally it seems the aging of some people under 35 will already have started as more people of 35 and younger need assistance with their vision than ever before.
On top failing eye sight you might also experience some hearing loss. Although not that common some people may even be deaf by age 40 and most notice some partial hearing loss. This is a condition know as presbycusis which is directly related to aging. One effect of this condition might be certain sounds become in audible or sound harsh or just to loud.
You might have enjoyed seeing your favorite rock band perform but now you find this is just to much for your ears to cope with. This is because the aging process has affected your hearing. You might find high pitch sounds less audible or maybe it's difficult to hear people in a crowded room or when the TV is on.
As the hearing is weakend,you will start to hear speech differently. For instance, the use of K may sound distorted, which affects comprehension and understanding. In other words, a older person may hear the CH in a word, such as Chute Up, and think that someone is telling them to shut-up.
The Ch sound becomes altered. It is usually possible to help people suffering from hearing loss by using hearing aids or other listening aids. Another way to help people with slight hearing loss is to make sure body language is not confused and where people possible each other while talking. In extreme cases it could be necessary to use the deaf sign language.
These are all signs of natural healthy aging, yet in some aging signs are less natural. For instance, if you unfortunate enough to contract lung cancer because of a history of smoking, or being around second-hand smoke, then the cause is not what nature intended.
During maturity and the body starts aging it is common for weight changes to occur (this is more prevalent in families with history of obesity and being overweight). The body produces up to 30% more fat and converts food to energy less effectively at around the age of 40. In addition wrinkles and other signs of aging start to become more noticable.

Basic Acne Skin Care
by : R Heavner
As with many things in life, little things can mean a lot. The individual with acne will need to use every means available to keep their acne under control and prevent future scarring. A few basic skin care precautions can go a long way in achieving these goals.
It is a temptation for many with acne, especially in the early stages, to scrub their skin with strong detergent soaps. Vigorous scrubbing will not help, and will very likely make the problem worse. Your face should be gently cleaned twice a day with a mild cleanser formulated for acne skin care. Clean from the neckline to the hairline, and be sure and use plenty of water.
For those who exercise and sweat, your face should be cleaned after exercise. Likewise, those who live in hot climates and find themselves sweating a lot may also want to wash more frequently. Again, a gentle washing with an acne skin care cleanser should suffice.
Use a mild moisturizer made for your type of skin, Allowing the skin to dry out will not help the problem. Likewise, use cosmetics which are oil free and formulated for your skin.
Men who shave may want to experiment with both electric and safety razors to see which is more comfortable for their skin. Men who use safety razors should use a sharp blade and thoroughly soften their beard before shaving. Try and shave lightly and only when necessary.
Regardless of how tempting, at all costs avoid. squeezing, pinching, or rubbing of acne blemishes. This will only aggravate the condition and may lead to scarring later.
Doctors recommend that patients regularly shampoo their hair as a part of their acne skin care regimen. Those with oily hair may want to shampoo daily.
Use caution while in the sun. While a suntan may help mask acne blemishes, the effect is only temporary as too much exposure can eventually aggravate the acne. Many over the counter and prescription acne treatments can create an oversensitivity to sunlight and make the user susceptible to serious sunburns.

Skin Care - The Benefits Of Vitamin C Skin Products
Vitamin C is one of the most widely used skin care ingredients. The variety of skin rejuvenation / anti-wrinkle products with vitamin C is staggering. Do these products work? Do their claims have any substance? The situation is a little complicated. On one hand, vitamin C does possess definite, scientifically validated merits for wrinkle reduction and skin rejuvenation. On the other hand, many vitamin C products do not work. he most common fat soluble Vitamin C derivative in skin care products is ascorbyl palmitate. This ingredient is more stable and less irritating than Vitamin C. Another derivative is the water soluble magnesium ascorbyl phosphate. Vitamin C derivatives have also been found by researchers that can be used as ingredients.
A popular anti skin aging ingredient is Vitamin C. In anti skin aging treatment Vitamin C is the most effective ingredient. The skin receives many good benefits from Vitamin C. Not only does this vitamin help get rid of the free radicals that can damage your skin but it also helps your body increase the production of collagen.
The biggest challenge for the skin care industry is the stability of Vitamin C. When exposed to the air, Vitamin C oxidizes immediately. When Vitamin C is oxidized it not only becomes ineffective but it is also harmful to individuals since it will increase the production of free radicals.
There are plenty of good reasons to add vitamin C to your diet and skin care program. Benefits of vitamin C on the outside of your body. Vitamin C products for skin care can provide greater protection against harmful UV rays, increase the production of collagen and decrease the look of fine lines and pigmentation that are the result of aging. This can actually be easier said than done, since the properties of vitamin C make it difficult to use in a skin care product. Use a variety of vitamin C derivatives in skin care products that will bring about the same benefits as natural vitamin C with less of the ingredient required for results. While Vitamin C products will work well for some they can be useless for others. Some skin care product ingredients don’t respond effectively for all skin types.
Bottom line
While unmodified vitamin C remains an important skin care ingredient, its derivatives may do a better job in some situations. They tend to be more stable, more affordable and less irritating. Furthermore, some of the derivatives may even be as effective in boosting skin collagen synthesis. On the other hand, unmodified vitamin C may be a better choice if you want to stimulate collagen synthesis and exfoliate at the same time. (High potency vitamin C products are highly acidic and therefore have exfoliating effect.)

5 Proven Secrets To Youthful Skin
5 Proven Secrets To Youthful Skin
by Sharon Bell
As you grow old, your skin is slowly losing its elasticity and in the process, you develop lines and spots on your skin. To make things more complicated, the environment itself can take its toll on your skin. Take action against the slow deterioration of your skin; maintain a youthful looking skin no matter what by following these simple tips.
Moisturize Your Skin
The first commandment in any skin care treatment is to ensure that your skin gets all the moisture that it needs. Skin dryness or dehydration is the biggest cause of skin damage, so you must avoid it at all costs. You do not need to spend a fortune in ensuring a well-moisturized skin; in fact, if you have to invest in your skin care regimen, a good bottle of moisturizer lotion or cream will go a long way.
The best time to apply your moisturizer is right after you have taken a hot shower when the pores of your skin are open and ready to absorb your moisturizing application. Also, always remember to target hard and dry areas when applying your moisturizer; apply more of your lotion or cream on areas like your knees, elbows, hands and feet.
Cleanse Your Skin At Least Once A Day
The reason is obvious. As the most exposed organ in the body, the skin is exposed to all types of dirt and contaminants, including germs and bacteria. All these harmful elements can surely hamper or damage your skin's ability to create fresh layers; in turn, making your skin look old and dry.
By cleansing your skin at least once a day, you keep it free from harmful contaminants. Basic soap and water will do. And with a soft sponge as your scraper, you also gently remove stubborn dirt lodged in the pores of your skin.
Always Pat Dry
When drying, always pat your skin with a soft towel and never ever scrub your skin, especially on your face area, because hard rubbing motion will surely damage your skin cells and create deep creases for you later on. Apart from this, all the needed nutrients and the natural oils secreted by your skin are also totally wiped out with scrubbing action; leaving your skin dry and defenseless against contaminants.
Always Wear Sunscreen
With the present condition of the Earth's ozone layer, harmful ultraviolet rays can penetrate your skin easily whether you are outdoors or indoors. That's right, if you think that UV rays can not damage your skin when you are protected by roofs and walls, you are dead wrong! Wherever sunlight can enter, ultraviolet emissions can wreak havoc on your skin; so never think twice about putting on that sunscreen.
The main reason that babies have such supple and soft skin is that they have not yet been exposed to sunlight for too long. The sun's rays can contribute a lot in making your skin old, wrinkly and a haven for spots.
Exfoliate And Then Exfoliate Some More
To let new layers of skin come out, you need to exfoliate your skin. Exfoliation is the process of removing or scraping away dead skin cells. As you do this to your skin, you also remove deep-seated dirt and spots on your old skin. Exfoliation will leave your skin always feeling soft and radiant just like that of a baby.
Apart from these practices, you can also add drinking plenty of water and taking vitamins that can nourish your skin. Some products are also rich in nutrients that can nurture and reinvigorate your skin, just like Rejuvinol. For more details about keeping your skin moisturized visit www.Rejuvinol.com.

Skin Care Acne - Tips For Taking Care Of Your Skin by Franchis
One of the best ways to deal with acne is to use antioxidants. They keep the skin supple and glowing, and also prevent the skin from ageing or getting wrinkled. The antioxidants, which are largely present in the epidermal layer of the skin, neutralize the nascent oxygen molecules that are known to play havoc with the skin.
The key players in the formation of acne are:
excess sebum under the control of androgens
plugged pores or follicles
bacteria and inflammation.
Having an acne problem myself, as an adult I personally know how tremendously embarrassing and burdensome this problem can be. At this point, I fully believe in a holistic approach to acne treatment i.e. utilizing a three-step topical treatment and implementing those vitamins & minerals in the diet that are beneficial to the proper functioning of the skin. I mean treat the acne on the outside and on the inside. Below is a summary of my findings that I hope could be usefully in your battle with acne. Sometimes, all the body needs the right nutritional balance to heal it self, these methods typically work within four weeks.
Antioxidants serve as a skin barrier to prevent free radicals from penetrating the living dermal layer. The highest concentration of antioxidants in the body is found in the outermost layer of skin, the epidermis. As we age, the concentration of antioxidants in the epidermis starts decreasing considerably. This is one reason that skin starts showing signs of damage. Antioxidants on their own will not treat acne, but they are a step in the right direction.
Some of the well-known antioxidants are vitamin E, vitamin C, vitamin B, vitamin A, and the minerals zinc, chromium and selenium. All these antioxidants help in the prevention and treatment of acne, preventing the free radicals from harming the skin and immune system, which helps in acne flare-ups. Other steps that I have employed personally include:
The application of HONEY 1-2 times per week to the face - Honey has natural antibacterial properties. It has been well documented by many experts that it is great for disinfecting and healing minor blemishes. It is also very gentle on sensitive skin.
Using a three step regime as recommended by your dermatologist
Washing affected areas twice a day with sulfur based soaps specially designed for acne is highly beneficial. Sulfur is useful in acne medication and problem skin treatments, since it helps to kill bacteria on the skin, which results in an improvement in acne. Sulfur is also an effective treatment of inflammatory pimples and acne lesions. Washing at the affected area first thing in the morning and before bedtime is with a product containing this component can prove over time to be effective. However, as a caution it should be noted that over washing will actually stimulate the sebaceous glands to produce more sebum, which would only increase the acne problem.
Remove dead skin cell and excess oils by cleansing with an alcohol-free toner. This will unplug pores.
Finally apply a product with 2.5% benzoyl peroxide to heal blackheads and blemished and help prevent future breakouts
Keep your hair off your face – Try to keep hair off the face, hair contains oils and will contribute to your breakouts. You will also want to wash your hair everyday especially after workouts.
Take a potent MULTI-VITAMIN - Acne indicates that something is not functioning properly on the inside.
Include CHROMIUM in your diet – As added benefit chromium is well known for WEIGHT LOSS. However it has been proven that it is also excellent for healing infections on the skin. A chromium supplement once a day will help heal your pimples quickly and prevent future breakouts.
EAT CARROTS for beta-carotene (VITAMIN A) - Vitamin A strengthens the protective tissue of the skin and actually prevents acne. The way it works is it helps reduce sebum production. This vitamin is essential for the maintenance and repair of the tissue which the skin and mucous membranes are made of. Vitamin A is also a powerful antioxidant needed to rid your body of toxins. It has been proven that a deficiency in VITAMIN A can cause acne; this might be one of the first things to check.
Avoid wearing makeup – I think the main problem is leaving makeup on your face for long periods and wearing very heavy cover up make up daily. This type of activity is counterproductive. Yes we want our skin to look flawless but we also need to solve the acne problem. Maybe the compromise is to wear light makeup for everyday use and leave the heavy applications for special occasions.
Drink - Water is nature’s cleanser. Drinking water is essential for clean skin and overall good health. Water rids the body of waste; its importance cannot be overemphasized.
Do not pick or squeeze your blackheads and pimples - These actions, actually increases the sebum production.
Wash your pillowcase every other day – You rest your face on your pillowcase every day, during your sleep your pillowcase absorbs the oils from your skin and reapplies the dirt and oil. This causes acne; therefore washing your pillowcase frequently will help.
Preventing Early Acne Scars
The best way to prevent post-inflammatory changes caused by acne is to prevent acne lesions from occurring. This is done by understanding the factors that cause acne and using the appropriate treatments for the different acne types. Healthcare providers say that vitamins and minerals in all forms play a critical role in healthy organs, the largest of which is skin. According to the founder of the National Institute of Whole Health in Boston, skin is the window that shows what's going on inside the body. Therefore, skin care acne products should treat the inner body as well.

Skin Care Tips And Advice For All Ages By Franchis
Skin care is very important for women and men of all ages. Proper moisture levels in your skin (epidermis) help diminish signs of aging and distress from the outdoors, and prevent frequent makeup and cosmetics use from diminishing the skin's glow and general health. American women are taking better care of their skin, seeking out sophisticated serums and lotions that will prevent or lessen signs of aging. With today's technology and medical advances a longer life span demands even greater discipline and understanding for anti aging skin care. Serious skin care regimes include cleansers, moisturizers, body lotions, eye cream, and sunscreens. Skin care changes as you age. Skin Care is different for different age groups. Your skin will change due to variances like environment, lifestyle and age. You need to make adjustments in your skin car in order to provide the best possible care for your skin. Every age brings along it's own problems and some effective skin treatments as mentioned below can fight with these problems at different stages of your life. If your age 12 and your skin is normal with no dry spots or blackheads. Always use a good soap or face wash. Wash your face twice — in the morning and the evening. Wash well to remove even the last trace of soap and splash with cold water. Apply light moisturising baby lotion to protect the skin and keep it soft.
Age of 20 early signs of damage and wrinkles in skin are visible. It is also inclined to be shiny with open pores and blackheads. Protecting your skin from exposure to ultraviolet radiation is the most significant thing you can do to prevent wrinkles, sagging, and discoloration. If you use make-up, remove it with a liquid make-up remover at night and complete the procedure by using an astringent. Natural astringents, such as rosewater, cucumber juice or lemon juice mixed with water, will also do. People in their 30’s and 40’s need to start getting regular facials in addition to daily skin care. They will need to be especially careful with skin around their eyes and use special products made for aging skin. They still need to use sun protection, too.
With a market revolving around beauty, it's easy to find a product designed specifically for you. Night creams are usually heavier to promote hydration and reduce fine lines and the signs of aging. Specialty creams are designed for under eye use to combat puffiness and dark circles. Personally, I split open a Vitamin E tablet and gently apply it under my eyes each night.
Suffering from the occasional breakout, I always thought I'd had pretty good skin. It wasn't until I decided acting that I realized even the occasional pimple could mean extra hours in the makeup chair. I was introduced to Origins. Although this line may not work for everyone (ask for a sample) I cannot sing their praises enough.
Treatments on- hand at forties:
* Collagen facials can help accelerating the skin regeneration.
* As one grows older, the muscles of the face and neck begin to sag and fine lines and wrinkles begin to appear. Some no surgical face-lifting treatments can be performed on the skin to feel younger.

Skin Care Tips - Care For Normal Skin by Franchis
Normal skin is neither oily or dry. The skin is fresh, clear and supple. The pores are neither too tight or too large. Normal skin types can tolerate the vast majority of skin protection creams. With proper skin care your fresh appearance is easily maintained. Makeup looks smooth and lasts well; may experience minor breakouts related to a "big night out", hormones, or stress. Normal skin has an even tone, soft, a smooth texture, no visible pores or blemishes, and no greasy patches or flaky areas. This type of skin has a clear, fine-textured, supple and smooth surface which is neither greasy nor dry. There may be occasional pimples in women just before menstruation due to increased hormonal activity, which makes the sebaceous glands overactive. Normal skins can also be 'Normal-To's' as in normal to oily or normal to dry. Wash your face with cleansers that are designed for your normal/normal-to skin type.
Apply moisturizer more frequently to dry skin. Use oil-absorbing makeup to reduce shine. Normal skin requires is cleaning it twice a day with a mild baby soap and water and toned with something mild, like rose water. Washing your face with plain refrigerated yogurt every night makes most acne cases vanish within a few days.
Fruits and vegetables do help a lot in keeping our skin smooth and supple. They help us ward off infections so that our skin remains blemish free. They contain essential nutrients, which can help give our skin that rosy glow indicative of good health. To give your skin that extra nice glow, try extracting the juice from half an orange or a piece of tomato. Apply this on your face using a lightly massaging action and leave it on for a few minutes.
Avoid touching your skin as much as possible. Avoid direct heat on the face-including that from blow dryers.
