Eternal subject: skin youth

Times, customs, means of rejuvenation change, and here we do not bathe in milk of wild she-asses any more, and we do not rub a dung of birds of paradise in wrinkles. Our modern means of rejuvenation include such substances as coenzyme Q10, collagen including "sea", liposomes and nanoparticles, and even mysterious "genes of youth".

The promising titles intriguing but, frankly speaking, and modern means "антиэйдж" carry out the main purpose (skin youth) not much better, than ancient cosmetics and also ointments and wipings of our grandmothers and great-grandmothers. It was not succeeded to deceive the nature and to stop relentless run of arrows of biological clock meanwhile to nobody. Eternal youth can be found unless in mistiko-fantastic novels yes in commercials of some new "supereffective" cosmetic cream or miracle beauty equipment procedure.

So, let's face the truth: to completely stop skin aging and furthermore to start this process in the opposite direction, in any case, in the near future, it will hardly be possible. But not everything is so gloomy!

It is impossible to stop, but it is possible to slow down, and it is very essential... It of course not "eternal youth", but, nevertheless, a life stage, quite long on duration, when age changes in skin can be made so imperceptible, especially for the foreign observer that it can really seem to it that time stopped. The directions of fight for youth of skin are old as the world, and remained invariable, probably, since Cleopatra:

• good nutrition from within and outside, with the emphasis on the products containing a maximum of the substances necessary for skin
• maintenance of sufficient moisture content of skin, moisture is life,
• protection of skin against various adverse effects, somehow ultraviolet, tobacco smoke and so forth.
• and, of course, leaving - systematic, conscious, with the thought-over application of the available means and methods offered by cosmetic science at this level of its development.

The directions remained the same, but filling of each point changes, the science does not stand still. More and more close scientists approach disclosure of the mechanism of aging of an organism in general and skin in particular, new hypotheses are made and new cosmetics, hardware methods, new recommendations including on the Top 10 list of the food necessary for maintenance of youth of skin are respectively offered.

That to eat it not to grow old …
So, than to feed skin that age changes did not spoil to us appearance and mood? Globalization of the world conducts to the fact that in any part of the world practically any natural products capable well become available to influence skin even if and growing somewhere it is far in a jungle of Amazon or the mountains of Tibet. If about 20-30 years ago for us and bananas were rare overseas delicacy, then now, at great desire, we can quite find in supermarkets both the Tibetan berry Goya, and avocado fruits from Central America, without speaking about the uncountable citrus fruits available all the year round.

At the present stage experts include in the most desired products for skin:

- Berries Goya - growing in China, Mongolia, on Tibet, and having unique nutritious properties. Huge, in comparison with a citrus and even a kiwi, the amount of vitamin C, linoleic acid and mass of other useful substances put these berries on one of the first places among natural products of fighters against an old age.

- Asa - one more useful berry, this time from Amazonia. Thanks to high content of antioxidants and other biologically active agents, takes a place of honor in these charts, having pressed a cranberry, bilberry, grapes, a sea-buckthorn that however, does not belittle also their useful influence on preservation of youth of skin.

- Soy and other bean, will help skin to solve a problem with the content of vivifying hyaluronic acid. It is known that with age its content in leather is reduced, and consumption of bean - soy, haricot, lentil and dr will help to fill stocks

- Sheet cabbage and spinach - fine sources of the lutein improving hydration of skin, increasing its elasticity, and, besides, well affecting sight. Lutein contains also in other vegetables and fruit - corn, a kiwi, zucchini, pumpkin, red grapes, a celery, green pepper, cucumbers, green beans and also in an egg yolk.

- Vegetable oils - olive, linen, sunflower - sources of the valuable fatty acids necessary for skin for elasticity and elasticity. Surely include them, alternating, in the daily diet.

- Seafood - fish, cod-liver oil, mussels, shrimps, a sea cabbage. Youth of skin is impossible without sufficient contents in food of fatty acids, iodine, zinc and other minerals. We can find all this wealth in seafood. The excellent source of protein and irreplaceable fatty acids (omega-3) which nourish skin do it elastic and young - a salmon.

- A turkey – a good source of protein of the karnozin, valuable to skin, which is slowing down processes of aging of skin and loss of its elasticity. However, karnozin is present also at other types of meat and also at fish. It is proved what karnozin really influences duration of youth and life. Cells of skin are fibroblasta which produce collagen and elastin, usually share about 50 times (are updated), and then begin to perish. In the presence of a karnozin the number of cell fissions grows almost twice – till 80-90 times. Karnozin prevents a glikirovaniye (accession of sugars to molecules of protein and DNA) – the process causing irreversible damages of proteins to an organism and including causing easing of immunity, injury of nerves, consolidations of blood vessels, "adhesion" of molecules of collagen and appearance of wrinkles. If you do not want to get early "goose pads", few times in a week cook light meat of a turkey for lunch or a dinner.

- Red, orange and yellow fruits – pepper, carrots, pumpkin, tomatoes and apricots – excellent sources of beta carotene (the predecessor of vitamin A), preserve skin against pernicious influence of sunshine.

- Dark chocolate – chocolate strengthens inflow of blood to cells of skin, she receives bigger amount of nutrients and reviver. Besides, a rich set of the minerals which are contained in cocoa beans well influences skin. Cocoa beans also preserve skin against ultraviolet rays.

Still, perhaps, it is worth including in the rejuvenating diet such products as, - strawberry, a wild strawberry, currant, pomegranates, broccoli cabbage, sunflower seeds, dates, apples, prunes, beet, garlic, parsley, nuts, honey. The list can be continued …. Generally, there are more gifts of the nature, fruit and vegetables - red, green, yellow, orange, blue and violet! The your dining table is more various, the it is more than chances for a long time to keep skin young, and an organism healthy. However, I think, the opinion of experts - what grows at a row, is usually best of all than what is brought from far away, – has under itself strong reasons. And pumpkin and a sea-buckthorn can be much more useful than some overseas berries of an asaa and Goya to our skin...

Pay special attention to drinks! That skin remained young and beautiful it should not thirst. Best of all clear quality water - simple, mineral, spring, thawed satisfies thirst of skin … Our skin and natural dairy drinks without sugar and chemical fillers and also juice, fruit drinks, kvass, infusions of flowers and herbs loves. Infusion of a linden and sage is especially useful to skin youth. Also tea and coffee in moderate quantity are good. These drinks are rich with caffeine, tannins and bioflavonoids - the substances supporting a tone of vessels and increasing elasticity of skin.

Yes, by the way, do not forget that valuable nutrients from food come to skin by the residual principle (after all, body peripheral) so skin needs to be nourished not only from within, but also outside. Practically all of them berries, fruit, vegetables and greens can be made magnificent lotions, tonics and antieydzh masks which, along with other actions if do not provide to us "eternal youth" of skin, will significantly improve its look and will prolong years of her youth for a long time!
