1. You Lie Down on The Side During Sleep<\/strong> Sleeping positions has one of the strongest effects on your body, especially when done consistently.<\/p>\n In a\u00a0study, researchers found that the compression to the face during sleep causes facial distortion when people sleep on their sides, leading to the formation of sleep wrinkles over time.<\/p>\n Also, another\u00a0study\u00a0showed that sleeping positions caused various facial lines, which are a major cause of wrinkles on the face.<\/p>\n If you\u2019ve noticed how you wake up with creases, lines, and wrinkles on your face after sleeping in a sideways position, then that most likely is one of the major causes of aging on your face. Sleeping on your side squashes your face into the pillow, causing wrinkles. The better way to sleep, get well-rested, and wake up feeling youthful is to sleep on your\u00a0back.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2. You\u2019re Not Using Sunscreen Regularly<\/strong> Think about it, researchers surveyed over 900 people over a period of four years. The result showed that people who practice using a broad-spectrum sunscreen (which blocks out both UVA and UVB) everyday experience 24 percent less skin aging compared to those who use sunscreen intermittently.<\/p>\n As a result, the\u00a0American Academy of Dermatology\u00a0recommends the\u00a0regular\u00a0use of sunscreen as it blocks out about 20 percent of sun rays from affecting the skin.<\/p>\n 3. You\u2019re Consuming Too Much Sugar<\/strong> In 2013, a group of researchers\u00a0looked\u00a0at 602 photographs of people with different blood sugar levels and attempted to guess their ages. Across the board, they found that the people with higher sugar levels consistently looked older.<\/p>\n This occurs through a process called \u201cglycation.\u201d<\/p>\n During this process, sugar is converted into hazardous free radicals that damage skin cells.<\/p>\n thereby quickening the aging process.<\/p>\n For women, especially, this effect becomes increasingly visible from 35 years of age, according to the British Journal of Dermatology.<\/p>\n 4. Your Deprive Yourself of Quality Sleep<\/strong> But most people don\u2019t get enough sleep. In fact, 35% of American adults\u00a0report\u00a0they don\u2019t sleep enough. In other words, they have less than 7 hours of night sleep every day.<\/p>\n Yet, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine\u00a0recommends between 7 and 9 hours of sleep per night. Failing to miss this standard can cause aging to speed.<\/p>\n Among older adults, even a single night of insufficient sleep can make the cells of the body age much quicker, a\u00a0study\u00a0from the University of California shows.<\/p>\n In one\u00a0study\u00a0commissioned by Est\u00e9e Lauder, poor sleep quality was found to increase skin aging.<\/p>\n Speaking about the result, Dr. Daniel Yarosh, Senior Vice President, Basic Science Research, R&D, at The Est\u00e9e Lauder Companies said:<\/p>\n This research shows for the first time, that poor sleep quality can accelerate signs of skin aging and weaken the skin\u2019s ability to repair itself at night.<\/p>\n 5. You\u2019re Overexposed to Electronic Devices<\/strong> This is why dermatologists\u00a0warn\u00a0of extensive exposure to the high energy visible (HEV) light emitted from phones, tablets, or computer screens because it causes damage to the skin \u2014 and ultimately leads to premature aging.<\/p>\n Dermatologists believe that if you spend four eight-hour workdays in front of a computer, you\u2019d be exposed to the\u00a0same amount of energy\u00a0as 20 minutes in the midday sun.<\/p>\n Repeated over time, this exposure to electronic devices coupled with daily exposure from the sun can wreak havoc on the body, making aging much faster.<\/p>\n Finally,<\/strong><\/p>\n Aging is an inevitable natural process that comes to us all, but you can help yourself to delay it by making the following adjustments to your everyday lifestyle:<\/p>\n Finding the right sleep position, preferably on your back <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 1.

\nMost adults\u00a0settle into bed without giving much thought to how they are situated. It is such a routine habit that many rarely bother about how it affects their health.<\/p>\n
\nBeing overexposed to the ultraviolet rays of the sun increases the\u00a0aging\u00a0rate by 80% as your face begins to show intense signs such as wrinkling, dryness, sagging, and spotty pigmentation. Cleveland Clinic has found that exposure to sun\u00a0damage\u00a0the skin cells, and cause the skin to look older, more wrinkled, and dry.<\/p>\n
\nYou might not know but sugar can make you age faster. This is why it\u2019s advisable to consume it in moderation for optimum health.<\/p>\n
\nSleep is very important to the mind and body. Several studies emphasize just how important sleep is to keep our bodies strong.<\/p>\n
\nIn this age, most of our jobs are done online or with handheld devices. For example, 60% of people spend more than\u00a0six hours per day\u00a0in front of a digital device. This makes it really difficult to escape all the blue light in your environment. But research shows blue light can lead to changes in skin cells, including cell shrinkage and death.<\/p>\n
\nRegularly making use of sunscreen
\nGiving up sugar for more healthy foods
\nTaking sufficient and quality sleep
\nMinimizing exposure to electronic devices.<\/p>\n
