10 Ways to Slow Down Aging to Keep You Looking Young Longer

8 Don’t smoke

When you smoke, your skin ages quickly, much faster than it normally should. People who smoke a lot get more wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin around their eyes, and their skin looks dull or shallow. Tobacco’s nicotine makes the blood vessels in your skin narrow, so oxygen and other important nutrients can’t get to your skin. People who smoke also get more wrinkles on their faces because they squint because of the smoke and purse their lips around the cigarettes.

9 Exercise your brain

It’s important to work out, but don’t forget to train your brain too. Read books, learn new languages, and play strategic games that make you think. Keeping your brain busy can slow down how fast it ages. Recent research has shown that learning makes more neurons, which helps the brain stay young.
