9 Foods, Vitamins, and Supplements that Will Keep You Younger Looking
Time flies when you’re having fun. I can remember being in my twenties like it was yesterday. But the fact remains that I am no longer twenty. I’m in my fifties. Since I entered my forties and fifties, I have noticed changes in the way I look and feel. As our body ages, we begin to become deficient. The level of hormones we produce decreases, our metabolism slows down, our body becomes deficient in many vitamins and nutrients, and the list goes on.
All these things contribute to the aging process. So, do we stand back and let our body age and slowly deteriorate? Hell NO!

So here are some of my anti-aging secrets just for you…
Pomegranates
The seeds of this amazing fruit are full of antioxidants. They contain loads of vitamin C, which prevents fine lines, wrinkles, and dryness by counterbalancing the free radicals that harm our skin and cause us to age faster.
Avocado
Eat it, and make a dip, side dish, smoothie, or facial mask. However, you do it — it doesn’t matter. As long as your body absorbs these nutrients, you’re on your way to looking and feeling younger. Avocados are rich in omega-9 fatty acids that help the skin retain moisture in the outer layer of the skin. By doing this, your skin stays soft, smooth, and radiant, making you look 10 or more years younger. Remember, one of the key components to looking younger is slowing down or preventing those wrinkles from occurring. One of the key factors of getting wrinkles is dry skin, so make sure your skin is always moist.
Walnuts
Walnuts are full of Omega-3 fatty acids. These fatty acids are found in the natural oils that keep your hair hydrated. It also contains vitamin E, which also helps repair damaged follicles. These are two secret components that will give you strong, luxurious hair.
Blueberries
Blueberries are an amazing antioxidant. They supply the body with vitamins C and E. These two vitamins in blueberries work together to brighten skin. So, if you’re looking to have radiant-looking skin, then eat your blueberries!
Eggs
Your fingernails and toenails are made of keratin, which is made of protein, so being deficient in vitamin B can turn those beautiful nails soft, causing them to crack and break. You want thick, strong nails. Eggs are a good source of biotin, which is a B complex vitamin that metabolizes amino acids. Biotin and vitamin B will help to strengthen your nails and keep them looking fabulous looking.
Important Vitamins
Vitamin B
Vitamin B does some amazing things for anti-aging. It…
- Slows down the graying process
- Thickens hair
- Prevents hair loss
So make sure you’re getting enough vitamin B into your daily diet if you want gorgeous-looking hair and you want your friends to compliment your amazing hair looks.
Vitamin D
The real secret to preventing lines and wrinkles is vitamin D. It prevents anti-aging and wrinkles. You always want to keep your skin moist, and if you notice that your skin is dry, then it’s probably because you don’t have enough vitamin D in your body. You can take vitamin D in a pill form, or you can open your fridge and get some vitamin D by eating eggs, fish, and mushrooms. These are just a few foods that provide vitamin D. You can also get vitamin D from the sun, but beware because you can also get skin cancer, sun spots, dry skin, and damaged skin from the sun. Remember to pack sunscreen protection if you’re looking to catch a few rays.
Probiotics
If you want healthy skin, then you need to have a healthy gut. One way to obtain a healthy gut is to take a probiotic daily. Probiotics are filled with ‘good’ bacteria. They help to maintain a balance between good and bad bacteria in your system. Probiotics help to prevent and decrease inflammation in the body. Inflammation can cause a bunch of skin problems, including rosacea, dandruff, and acne.
Milk Thistle
Every day, we’re exposed to toxins. The air we breathe, the food we eat, and the products we use expose us to tons of toxins.
Milk thistle detoxifies the body. When we detoxify our body and release toxins, our organs can function at their full capacity. By detoxifying, you can increase your energy and your metabolism, which will help you sleep better, focus better, lose weight loss, and improve the way you look and feel overall.
