Cucumber to Fight Chloasma
Making some salad? Donate a couple of cucumber slices for your face, neck, and hands skin. Cucumber helps get rid of the emerging age related chloasma; freeze a cucumber, thaw it out, and use its juice to wipe your skin.
Eat Red Foods
Red beet and carrots are the kings of the rejuvenation kingdom. Add those vegetables raw to any salad, when making some braise, or even put in water when boiling some pasta.
Green tea
Japanese scientists found out that the polyphenols found in green tea are 20 times more effective than the widely recommended vitamin E; they slow down the aging process in the tissues, act as antioxidants, and lower the cholesterol level. The flavonoids found in green tea can prevent you from developing the heart diseases.
Smart Fasting
You could live up to age of 180 if you do some smart fasting; such an outstanding conclusion was made by scientists. As it turns out, when our body encounters extreme situations, such as fasting, it produces a special protein, which can extend our life span at least by 50 per cent. This mechanism was found only in mice so far, but the scientists believe, that our body has a similar one and promise to develop proper technologies soon. Meanwhile, for those of you who wish to activate the “protein of life” on your own, they advise to go for some reasonable fasting. Dieticians, however, note that fasting, especially a long-term one, should be carried out only under a doctor’s supervision.
