A healthy diet and drinking enough
water can help maintain youthful skin. The main guidelines for an active and
healthy lifestyle are a healthy diet, enough physical activity and proper skin care.
What role does food play in maintaining a youthful looking skin?
Our appearance is influenced by our emotional state
and the state of our internal organs, especially the stomach, the kidneys, the
liver and the lungs, which process materials acquired from the outside. Foods
that cause or stimulate inflammations in our body should be avoided.
Unfortunately, foods with a negative impact on our bodies are present on a
daily basis: coffee, processed foods, canned goods, cold cuts, products from
white flour, bad fat, sugar, fried food,…
What effect does drinking water have on skin and on its youthful appearance?
If we drink enough water, the skin will be firmer. When the skin is
hydrated from the inside, there will be less visible wrinkles on the face.
Water also helps cell regeneration. When dehydration occurs, even if it’s not
life-threatening, the skin looks withered, less firm and it loses its radiance.
Moreover, when water is expelled from the body, so are the unwanted substances
which can have a negative effect on your skin’s appearance
5 fruits that will help you maintain a youthful-looking skin
Apples have the effect of an anti-aging treatment
Eating apples (and their skin) helps
detoxify and regenerate the organism, so they are recommended also for those
who need anti-ageing treatment. Apples stimulate metabolism and diuresis, which
means they help expel the unwanted substances from the body. The acid present
in apples has a similar effect to peeling as it removes layers of dead skin
cells and the impurities in the pores, which makes the skin smoother and
firmer.
Pomegranates nourish the skin
The antioxidants in
pomegranate skin and juice are four times stronger than the ones present in red
wine or green tea. Moreover, pomegranates are rich in vitamins A, C, and E,
potassium, folic acid and iron. Thanks to the numerous nutrients the
pomegranate is often used in hair and skincare products.
Tomatoes defend the skin from UV rays
Tomatoes are rich in lycopene, which works as an
internal photoprotection, increasing the resistance to sun rays. Tomatoes are
also rich in vitamins (A, B1, B2, B5, C, and E) and minerals (potassium,
manganese, iron and copper), which protect and nourish the body and the skin.
Olive oil is the best for regeneration
Olive oil is excellent as it renews the skin, smooths wrinkles
and helps fight stretch marks and scars. With its unique formula, it protects
the skin, the lips, the nails and the hair. It has an ideal content ratio of
fatty acids omega 3, 6 and 9 and is rich in polyphenol and vitamins A and E.
Grapes are the best antioxidant
Grapes and grape seeds are rich in
vitamins, minerals, fruit acids and polyphenol, which is a highly effective
antioxidant that protects the skin from aging. We can say that grapes have the
effect of an anti-aging treatment as they maintain healthy and youthful-looking
skin.
What else can we do to keep our skin healthy?
For wholesome body care and an
aromatic experience to pamper the senses, we recommend the “Firming body
treatment” or wine therapy. The treatment starts with a grape peeling which
removes dead skin cells, thus refreshing and rejuvenating the skin. After a
shower the treatment proceeds with a body massage with grape seed oil: it
stimulates regeneration, rejuvenates the skin, helps maintain its natural
hydration levels and a good epidermis structure, protects the skin from aging
and the stressful effects from the environment. After the treatment, the skin
is soft, smooth, firm and silky to the touch.
For additional home care, we
recommend the use of the Wine therapy body lotion or the Wine therapy facial
cream, which is available in two options: hydrating or nourishing.
