The global population is ageing. According to the report, ‘World Population Ageing 2020-Highlights’, published by the United Nations Department of Social Affairs, by 2050 the global number of people aged 65 years and over is projected to double, reaching over 1.5 billion people[1]. Studies have also shown that the ageing population is becoming more concerned about their health and reducing the effects of ageing. Many are taking health supplements and investing more in their skin care routines to counteract the impacts of ageing. Younger generations are also increasing their use of anti-ageing products as a preventative rather than a cure approach.
Check out our top tips to help you age like a fine wine:
1. Wear sunscreen: The harsh rays of the sun can damage your skin and cause dark spots, wrinkles, sagging and skin cancer. It is important to look after your skin by applying sunscreen every morning. As part of the early detection strategy, we also recommend that you see a dermatologist once a year, or more often if you are at a higher risk of skin cancer for a full body examination.
2. Drink plenty of water: Drinking plenty of water every day is important for good health. Your body relies on water for many functions. When you are dehydrated your body doesn’t function as well and your skin becomes more vulnerable to skin disorders and premature wrinkling. Therefore, drinking plenty of water daily is important for nourishing your skin and keeping you healthy.
3. Exercise: It is important to keep physically active. To stay young and healthy we recommend at least half an hour of moderate intensity physical exercise every day. This will help you maintain your strength, increase your vitality, improve your sleep and will also give your mental health a boost.
4. Eat a healthy, balanced diet: Eating well has a significant role to play in how we age. It is important that your diet consists of plenty of fruit and vegetables to help you stay young and ward off any diseases.
5. Get enough sleep: Developing healthy sleep habits as you age can help ensure you get enough quality sleep each night. It is recommended that you get at least 7-8 hours of sleep every night.
6. Supplementation: Lots of people have deficiencies when it comes to their health, particularly as they start to get older. Supplementation is a great way to boost your energy and will leave you feeling great from the inside out.
