5 effective anti-aging behaviors that will make you 10 years younger than your peers 

How can we slow down the progress of aging? 5 effective anti-aging behaviors that will make you 10 years younger than your peers:

Behavior 1. Regular strength training

Muscle loss will occur after the age of 30. The older you get, the faster the loss will be. And “muscle loss means a decrease in basal metabolic value, weakening of strength, and easy weight gain”.

And “persisting in strength training can effectively prevent muscle loss. Muscle growth can increase basal metabolic value (inhibit fat accumulation), and can also increase bone density, allowing you to maintain strong physical fitness and a young body”.

It is recommended that a group of strength training be arranged the next day, so that beginners can strengthen the body muscles and make aging come a little slower, starting from 100 squats and 100 push-ups (on the wall) (completed in groups).

Behavior 2. Work and rest regularly to ensure adequate sleep

People who often stay up late and do not get enough sleep are in a state of overdraft, their hormone secretion will be disordered, they will be depressed the next day (they are prone to dark circles), and they will be prone to sleepiness.

People with chronic sleep deprivation (＜6 hours) are at higher risk of memory loss and cognitive decline (increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease) , the body will age faster.

And “people who adhere to a regular schedule and sleep for more than 7 hours a day will have a more stable appetite and are less likely to overeat. Their mental state will gradually improve during the day, and their body immunity will also improve. They can resist diseases. You will also look much younger than people who stay up late.

Behavior 3. Eat more antioxidant foods

Daily diet can affect the health status of the body. People who usually always eat a high-sugar and high-fat diet will accelerate the oxidation rate of the skin and induce cardiovascular diseases.

We need to adjust our diet, eat less heavy foods, learn to eat light, and eat more foods rich in antioxidants, which can help the body remove free radicals and reduce oxidative damage.

We can get it from all kinds of vegetables, fruits, like broccoli, spinach, tomato, Carrots, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, Lettuce, blueberries, Kiwi, Strawberries, etc., these foods have a strong antioxidant capacity. Suggestions, Eat enough fruits and vegetables of 5 colors (red/yellow/green/purple/white) every day It can promote waste discharge and also make the skin condition better.

Behavior 4. Maintain the frequency of aerobic exercise

Proper exercise exercises accelerate metabolic waste discharge, reducing inflammation in the body (chronic inflammation accelerates organ aging). The body sweats during exercise, which cleans pores and promotes collagen production (making the skin firmer). People who insist on it for a long time have smoother and more elastic skin.

It is recommended that at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week (such as brisk walking, swimming, aerobics, housework, square dancing, etc.), or 75 minutes of high-intensity exercise (such as skipping rope, climbing stairs), can enhance the heart’s ability to pump blood and vital capacity, slow down the aging rate of body functions, and choose the exercise you like in order to persevere!

Behavior 5. Reduce stress and maintain a stable mood.

A long-term exposure to negative emotions such as anxiety and depression can lead to endocrine disorders in the body and accelerate the process of aging. You will find that many women age very quickly after marriage, they need to take care of their children’s families, there may also be conflicts between husband and wife (easy to be hysterical), psychological pressure is relatively high, emotions tend to fluctuate, and they are prone to irritability, irritability, and anxiety, which leads to an accelerated aging rate.

And “an unmarried or single person is often less stressed. They can see the world freely, without the worries of relatives and sisters-in-law, without conflicts between husband and wife, and without having to take care of children. Such people will have more stable emotions and appear younger”.

If we want to resist the rate of aging, we should maintain a positive attitude as much as possible, release stress in time, and reduce emotional fluctuations in order to maintain a young mentality and show a youthful appearance.
