Coping With Stress, Its Effects On
Your Skin And Health, And Turning Back The
Clock
ByDavid Maillie
Stress comes in many forms, workplace stress,
family stress, grief over loss of a loved
one, etc... Some can be avoided, but as we
know, many cannot. Some people handle stress
better than others, and some even thrive onit.Regardless,
stress takes its toll.
Stress has been proven to rid your
body of many essential vitamins and minerals.
Particularly vitamins C, E, and B. This
leads to lethargy, lower focussed mental
activities (clinically stress causes more
erratic brain activity and a reduction
in short term and long term memory), drying
out and aging of the skin (in some), and
in others a increase in the sebaceous
gland activity - which usually brings
postules, acne, and rosacea - which all
bring more stress as we then become more
entangled in how others view our physical
appearance.
We cannot stop all stress, but we can
take steps to stop or limit its toll on
our skin and body. Take a full vitamin
suplament every day. Eat a well balanced
diet - especially fish meat like salmon
(high in omega 3's which is proven to
increase brain function and cellular activity,
but it also is proven to reduce the aging
process of the skin and make cuts and
bruises heal faster). Eat more raw fruits
and vegetables - atleast 5 servings per
day - you will see a notable difference
in 4-6 weeks and you will feel better
(along with better colon health.
Exercise more often. Aerobic exercise
has been proven to release powerful hormones
that actually counteract the harmful chemicals
and results of stress as it will also
improve your bodys abilities to cope with
oxidants.
I can't say enough about meditation and
prayer. Study after study have proven
a reduction in every skin and body malody
even cancer symptoms from people that
pray and meditate daily. Take 20 minutes
every day and do this you will also live
longer.
The latest rage is skin peels for a quick
fix. Skin peels will slough off the top
layers of skin and reveal fresher, cleaner
skin. The most effective are TCA peels
and phenol peels (phenol peels are dangerous
and should only be performed by a licensed
plastic surgeon). TCA, trichloroacetic
acid, is a medium depth skin peel that
works on the most skin ailments - aging
skin, sun damage, even has been proven
to treat and cure acne. No other skin
peel can safely do all that a TCA peel
can.
So there you have it - clear, younger
skin in 500 words. Great advice to follow
and don't forget to always run anything
new by your doctor. They are licensed
for a reason and know whats best for you.
