Anti Aging Skin Care Tips
Dr. Oz, the famed heart surgeon and expert on fitness and nutrition who appears regularly on the Oprah Winfrey Show, has a lot to say on anti aging skin care. What he has to say can essentially be broken down into two categories: diet and creams.
Diet and Nutrition and Anti Aging Skin Care
Dr. Oz says that antioxidants can help reduce wrinkles. Certain fruits like pomegranates, red grapes, and acai berries are high in antioxidants and therefore can help to reduce wrinkles, lines, and spots. Antioxidants also help power the immune system and, in so doing, help the body to better deal with stress (another contributor to aging as you’ll soon read below).
Anti Aging Creams
Dr. Oz recommends several anti aging skin care creams, most particularly eye creams, moisturizers, and facelift creams. With eye creams, Dr. Oz advises not to use them every day, as the skin around the eyes too sensitive to tolerate such frequent treatment. With moisturizers, Dr. Oz advises those products containing collagen and elastin as they are very good for the skin and don’t merely moisten the skin only whilst being applied. With facelift creams, Dr. Oz advises that they make a great all-around anti aging skin care product.
The key ingredients Dr. Oz says to look for in any anti aging skin care creams are:
* Vitamin A (or Retinol)
* Vitamin C (or Ascorbic Acid)
* Vitamin E (or Tocopherol)
* and to a lesser extent – Niacin.
Dr. Oz also recommends wearing sunscreen on a daily basis to reduce your exposure to UV rays which can speed up the onset of aging and signs of aging.
When all is said and done, however, Dr. Oz’s number one anti aging skin care solution is to reduce your stress level, as stress is the primary factor in aging.
