5 Healthy Resolutions to Make in the New Year
Are you looking for healthy resolutions to make in the New Year? If so, these changes in your routine are simple to implement and will help make your skin look younger and refreshed at all times.
Beverage Choices
The most important beverage to consume is water. Drink enough water everyday to keep your skin hydrated and looking younger. Also, avoid too many alcoholic beverages and sugary drinks as they can attribute to the aging process.
Cook More At Home
Even healthy options at restaurants contain hidden calories which can cause weight gain. You can more easily control ingredients, portions and preparations when you cook at home. You might also consider a personal chef if you do not have the time to cook yourself.
Eliminate Processed and Prepackaged Foods
Chemicals in processed and prepackaged foods are likely harming your health and your appearance. Eliminate processed and prepackaged foods from your home. Read the ingredients on every package. Even vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free packages may have additional harmful chemicals and additives.
Plant Herbs and Fruit Trees
Plant fresh herbs and fruit trees around your yard. The more access you have to fresh ingredients, the better it is for your overall well-being and appearance. A lemon tree can provide you with fresh lemon juice to add to your water each morning. This can help eliminate toxins and give you a healthy glow each day.
Sun Protection
Be certain that your daily cosmetics have a strong SPF including the lotion you use on your body. Also, reapply sunscreen every few hours if you are active outdoors. A hat and long sleeves are another highly recommended solution for preventing unwanted wrinkles and premature aging.
Even if you eliminate harmful foods and take the proper protective sun precautions, you can still develop skin problems such as crow’s feet and gain weight in problem areas.
