The foods taken in contribute largely to how the skin ages but these

vegetables for instance, the result on the skin would be a glow of a
healthy one usually devoid of blemishes and ultimately signs of
tiredness and ageing.

spider veins and puffiness which gets worse when ladies are around

water in the body which ends up giving a puffy look, it also raises the

eat more fresh against processed foods.

pasta, cakes and more age the skin fast because they damage the skin
cells as well as affect the production of collagen that helps keep the
skin tight.

cortisol/stress hormone that tells on the skin, damages skin cells and
collagen production leaving the skin aging fast.
