The kind of food you eat can also contribute to skin aging. You should eat more fruits and vegetables that contain antioxidants so they do not age faster than others.
Eating healthy foods goes a long way in keeping the skin supple. Foods that are skin-friendly such as cucumber and spinach are important.

Note: if you have a health challenge that makes it difficult to know the kind of vegetables, fruits and foods that are suitable for your consumption. Kindly send me a DM for proper guidance.

Happy new month health enthusiasts!!

There’s no medication or supplement you take once to melt away those unwanted fats and give you that body you so much desire. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, which involves opting for a healthier choice of food each time you want to eat, taking a walk down the street instead of calling for a cab or driving, keeping a positive mindset, having a regular sleep pattern and having good stress management strategy, can help you achieve a body stature you will be proud and a body system that works for you instead of working against you.
So if you are battling with issues of belly fat or overweight:
- [ ] Don’t just attempt to reduce a particular spot rather reduce sugar intake
- [ ] Don’t do crash diet rather eat in moderation with consistency
- [ ] Don’t engage in one time intensive workout ( this can actually damage your muscles and joints) but start with 10-15mins daily exercise or walk and be consistent with it
- [ ] Don’t put the body in a state of confusion by having irregular sleep patterns.

So, you might be thinking right now, ‘ Oh! Pharm. doesn’t understand! My daily schedule is packed to the teeth! I don’t have time!
Yes, I hear you and your reasons are valid, however, I know that you can always make out time for what is important to you.
The question is; ‘Is your health that important to you?’
