5 Asian Beauty Secrets to Staying Young

Dr. Marie Jhin, a dermatologist in the SF Bay Area's Premier Dermatology discusses how to be smart in the sun for this summer.

1) Food and antioxidants- superfoods such as almonds, salmon, blueberries.  Nuts have antioxidant properties such as polyphenols and healthy proteins.  Almonds in particular have lots of arginine, an amino acid that inhibits tumor growth.  Ellagic acid, in berries is a cancer fighting polypherol also abundant in walnuts.  In my book, Asian Beauty Secrets, one of the secrets among Asians is eating well and ingesting superfoods such as ginseng, green tea, reishi mushrooms, and seaweed.
2) Exercise and stay hydrated - Exercise regulates neuropeptides and releases a neuropeptide endorphin that reduces stress and promotes a feeling of euphoria while reducing anxiety and depression.  Any regular exercise that is sustained for 20-30 minutes will stimulate the production of neuropeptides, which will contribute to the feeling of a youthful exuberance and a radiant glow.  And remember to stay hydrated with lots of fluids which let moisture stay in your body.
3) Avoid external factors such as sun and smoking and tanning -  Sun is the number 1 cause of external aging factor.  It causes free radicals to be produced and the skin will develop more sun damage, wrinkles and skin cancer.  This is why sun protection and avoiding tanning salons is important for staying young.  Also, smoking which is not only a carcinogen, it is also causes the skin to be wrinkly and aged.
4) Sleep well - Every woman should sleep at least 7 hours a day.  Make sure not to sleep on your stomach, which produces sleep lines on your face.
5) Decrease stress - meditate and have inner peace.   Stress brings the body down by increasing cortisol.  This causes hair loss, dry skin and wrinkles. Again my book talks about the balance of chi that Asians believe in whereby you need your internal energy to be healthy and have peace for outer beauty and health to occur.
You need to feel good in your own skin.
