According to research your diet, soap choice, and even your everyday habits can make crow’s feet appear on your face. Knowing which foods to avoid, how to choose face wash, and how to change your routine can make it so you’re able to stay young and fresh much as you get older.

Bright Side hopes this list will help you win your battle with aging.

1. Sleep deprivation leads to skin dehydration.

According to this study, if you lose sleep for even one night or constantly sleep less than 5 hours a day, it can lead to water loss and decreased skin barriers. Good rest is the key to rejuvenation and the growth of new cells, so if you make getting rest important, you will be able to stay younger-looking for longer.

2. A lack of antioxidants is connected with the formation of more wrinkles.

Vitamins A, C, E, and potassium are vital for healthy skin. We recommend that you eat more vegetables, especially carrots, squash, tomatoes, and green leafy veggies. It’s also good to include olive oil in your diet.

3. The consumption of red meat is associated with more facial wrinkles.

There’s a Dutch study that shows that women who eat red meat tend to have more wrinkles. More than that, cooking meat and fat over high, dry heat can lead to diabetes. But it’s possible to prevent this if you eat less meat and opt for soups and stews instead of roasts. Plus, try to include more fruit in your meals.

4. Long hot baths with harsh soaps lead to drier skin.

These products can change the pH of the skin and lead to irritation and dryness. All of these things erode the skin’s barriers and provoke early aging. If you use harsh alkaline soap bars this can only worsen the situation. It’s better to ditch those soaps for something more natural.

5. Mono diets impact the skin’s aging process.

The key to these diets is to exclude all products except one. This leads to an imbalance of protein, fat, and carbohydrates, which lowers the ability of the skin to heal itself. According to a study, carbs are the most important for women while men need to eat enough protein to stay young-looking.

6. A lack of protein prevents skin cells from renewing themselves.

Research says that if you restrict calorie intake and eat less protein along with it, your skin will lose elasticity, which will then lead to more wrinkles. It also prevents skin from healing and rebuilding itself. Collagen treatment can actually help in these cases but it’s not comparable to the influence of protein.
