Habits that threaten female youth

Many women know not to smoke, drink or overeat, and believe that by giving up, they will maintain a blooming youthful appearance and good health. But not everything is so simple. There are seemingly harmless habits that also have a negative effect:

• eat a lot of sugar - the body needs glucose, but its excess leads to the destruction of collagen, due to which the skin loses its elasticity, the forehead and other parts of the body quickly become wrinkled, bags under the eyes appear, not to mention diabetes;
  
• little sleep - sleep helps to restore energy, and this is very important, even when it seems that there is an abundance of strength. And it is also great for helping to cope with stress, which also contributes to rapid aging;
  
• it is wrong to use cosmetics - both carers and decorative products have pros and cons, they should be selected according to age, be sure to read the compositions and trust only trusted brands;
  
• lead a sedentary lifestyle - no one requires you to go in for sports professionally, but regular walks in the fresh air, exercise and posture control strengthen the body, and lowered shoulders, on the contrary, add years;
  
• avoid vegetables and fruits in the diet - vitamins can be injected into the skin by a beautician or taken with food, it seems to us that the second option is both cheaper and more pleasant.
