1 cherry
Cherry has been a beauty fruit since ancient times. Cherry juice is the favorite of many whitening products, which can help facial skin to be tender, rosy, wrinkle-free and spot-free. Cherry is not only rich in vitamin C, but also extremely rich in iron, which is 13 times that of hawthorn and 20 times that of apple. In addition to high iron content, it also contains vitamin A, which can balance cortical secretion and delay aging, and help activate cells and beautify skin.
2. Pomegranate
The delicate and charming red pomegranate has been proved to have strong antioxidant effect. It contains an ingredient called ellagic acid, which can protect cells from environmental pollution and UV rays, nourish cells and slow down the aging of the body. Studies have shown that ellagic acid is more "powerful" in radiation protection than polyphenols contained in red wine and green tea.
3. Carrots
Carrots are known as "skin food" and can moisturize the skin. Carrots are rich in pectin, which can combine with mercury, so that harmful components in the human body can be discharged, and the skin looks more delicate and ruddy. It contains beta carotene, which can resist oxidation and whiten skin, prevent melanin precipitation, and remove excess keratin from skin. It also contains vitamin e, which is indispensable for oxidation resistance.
4. Olives
As early as in ancient Greece, the olive tree was a symbol of life and health, which not only can be eaten as healthy food, but also has outstanding cosmetic effects. Olive trees can extract skin care essence from leaves to fruits. Olive leaf extract helps skin cells to resist oxidation caused by pollution, ultraviolet rays and pressure; Olive fruit, on the other hand, contains another powerful antioxidant component-phenolic compound, which can provide double antioxidant repair after combining with oleuropein.
5. Cucumber
It tastes delicious, crisp and fragrant, and is highly respected by slimming people. Moreover, it is rich in a variety of sugars and amino acids necessary for human growth, development and life activities, as well as rich vitamins, providing sufficient nutrients for skin and muscles, which can effectively resist skin aging and reduce wrinkles. Rich in fruit acid, it can clean and whiten skin, eliminate sunburn and freckles, and relieve skin allergies.
6. Grapes
It contains a lot of grape polyphenols, has antioxidant function, can block the proliferation of free genes and effectively delay aging; It also contains tannic acid and citric acid, which has a strong astringent effect and a soft and moisturizing effect. In addition, grape pulp contains vitamin B3 and rich minerals, which can deeply moisturize, resist aging and promote skin cell regeneration.
7. Lemon
Lemon contains vitamin B 1, vitamin B2, vitamin C and other nutrients. In addition, it is rich in organic acids and citric acid, which has a strong antioxidant effect and is very effective in promoting skin metabolism, delaying aging and inhibiting pigmentation.
8. Apricot
Not only has a bright appearance, but also is rich in sugar, fruit acid, dietary fiber, flavonoids, vitamin C, iron, phosphorus, zinc and other mineral elements, especially vitamin B 17. Almonds are also rich in protein, fat, carotene, B vitamins, vitamin C, calcium, phosphorus, iron and other nutrients. Rich in minerals and vegetable unsaturated oils, it has a good moisturizing and nourishing effect.
9, grapefruit, orange, orange
A 2005 study conducted by a research institute confirmed that the smell of grapefruit can make women look 6 years younger than men on average. Now, a kind of citric acid contained in grapefruit has been widely used in the field of skin care. This ingredient can help the metabolism and excretion of dead skin cells, thus making the skin smooth and radiant again.
2. Foods that accelerate aging
1, often eat pickled food
In the process of curing, a large amount of salt is needed, which will lead to the excessive sodium content of such foods, which will increase the burden on the kidneys of people who often eat cured foods. In addition, because high concentration of salt can seriously damage the gastrointestinal mucosa, the incidence of gastrointestinal inflammation and ulcer is higher in people who often eat pickled food. Most importantly, eating too much pickled food will promote women's premature aging.
2, often eat canned food.
Whether it is canned fruit or canned meat, the nutrients in it have been destroyed a lot, especially all kinds of vitamins have been almost destroyed. In addition, protein in canned products often degenerates, which greatly reduces its digestibility and nutritional value. In addition, many canned fruits contain high sugar, which is ingested into the human body as a liquid carrier, so that the absorption rate of sugar is greatly increased. It can lead to a sharp rise in blood sugar and an increase in pancreatic load in a short time after eating. At the same time, because of the high energy, it is suspected of causing obesity.
3, often eat processed meat.
This kind of food contains a certain amount of nitrite, so it may have the potential risk of causing cancer. In addition, due to the addition of preservatives, color enhancers and color retention agents, the burden on human liver increased in 2008. In addition, ham and other products are mostly high-sodium foods. Eating a lot can lead to high salt intake, causing blood pressure fluctuation and renal function damage.
4, often eat fried food
This kind of food is high in calories, contains high oil and oxidation substances, and it is easy to cause obesity if eaten regularly; It is the most dangerous food leading to hyperlipidemia and coronary heart disease. In the process of frying, a large number of carcinogens are often produced. Studies have shown that the incidence of some cancers in people who often eat fried food is much higher than that in people who don't or rarely eat fried food.
5, commonly used vessels with scale
Tea sets or utensils will produce scale after being used for a long time. If they are not cleaned in time, frequent drinking will cause pathological changes in the digestive, nervous, urinary, hematopoietic and circulatory systems and cause aging. This is because the scale contains more harmful metal elements such as cadmium, mercury, arsenic and aluminum. Scientists have carried out chemical analysis on the scale in hot water bottles used for 98 days, and found that there are many harmful metal elements: cadmium is 0.034 mg, mercury is 0.44 mg, arsenic is 0.2 1 mg, and aluminum is 0.0 12 mg. These harmful metal elements are extremely harmful to human body.
6, often polluted by high temperature lampblack.
After comparative analysis, foreign research institutions point out that China people like to use high-temperature cooking oil to cook dishes, and the stove temperature is about 50% higher than that of western families. Usually, under the catalysis of high temperature, edible oil will release smoke containing butadiene, and long-term inhalation of this substance will not only change people's genetic immune function, but also be prone to lung cancer. The research report shows that rapeseed oil is more carcinogenic than peanut oil, because the butadiene released by rapeseed oil at high temperature is 22 times higher than that by peanut oil. In order to avoid this kind of harm, it is best not to heat cooking oil beyond the boiling point of oil when cooking dishes, and it is better to use hot oil, so as to avoid causing smoke and fire to damage health and promote facial wrinkles.
7. Lipid food
Lipid peroxide sounds a little strange, but oil and cakes with spicy taste stored at home for a long time usually contain lipid peroxide. "Peroxide lipid" can make people premature aging. After this kind of substance enters the human body, it will cause great damage to the enzyme system and vitamins in the human body and accelerate human aging. Moreover, the growth rate of this substance in the human body increases with age. The more its content, the faster and earlier the symptoms of aging will show. It mainly exists in two kinds of food: one is fried food and oil stored for a long time; Second, oily foods exposed to the sun for a long time, such as peanuts, dried shrimps, bacon and dried squid.
8, lead-containing food
Lead-containing foods are not far from us. Preserved eggs, popcorn, fried soybeans, fried broad beans, fried rice cakes, canned foods or drinks are all lead-containing foods. Lead can cause neurotic conduction block, memory decline, dementia, mental retardation and other diseases. Too much lead intake not only makes people suffer from dementia, but also makes people look gloomy and premature aging.
9. Trace element aluminum
Aluminum products in daily necessities, such as pots, shovels and spoons, contain a lot of aluminum. Excessive intake of aluminum will destroy the function of DNA in human nerve cells, which will not only make the elderly susceptible to dementia, but also make people prematurely aging. Aluminum mainly exists in fried dough sticks made by traditional methods.
3, the performance of female aging
1, more hair on the face
Some women may have a beard above their lips, which is mainly related to genetic factors. With the increase of age, some women will have more hair on their faces. When they get older, the estrogen level in women will drop, leading to an imbalance between male and female hormones, which will increase facial hair.
2. The hair on the top of the head becomes thinner
After menopause, 50% women will notice that the hair on the top of the head is significantly thinner. After the age of 50, both men and women will encounter such embarrassment, which is mainly related to the loss of estrogen to protect hair.
3. Eyebrows are thinning
It is related to hormone imbalance in the body.
4. The nose and ears become bigger and droopy.
Due to the relaxation of skin and soft tissue and the change of supporting structure, ears and nose will droop slowly over time, especially if you have the habit of wearing earrings.
5. When you smile, the white part of your teeth becomes more.
The gums seem to be invisible, because your gums are degenerating and shrinking, and less and less parts are wrapped around your teeth. The average length of normal incisors is generally10 ~12mm. After gingival degeneration, its length can become15 ~17mm. Like skin, collagen fibers in gums will gradually lose with age.
6. The veins stood out and spots appeared on the back of the hand
Because there is very little fat in the hand and there is not enough tissue support, the skin is easily thinned, resulting in prominent veins. In addition, hands are most exposed to the external environment and are often affected by the sun, so older people are prone to senile plaques.
7. Rough and deformed feet
The elasticity and flexibility of the tendons and ligaments of the foot will gradually decrease with age, resulting in greater pressure on the bones of the foot and easy deformation. Wearing high heels all the year round is particularly prone to such problems, so wear high heels as little as possible to ensure that the ligaments of the feet can be fully stretched and maintain their elasticity.
