Collagen Degeneration - These things are RAPIDLY AGING your face

[@pattycarljackson]

Some people commenting just don’t understand balance or the fact that wearing sunscreen, sun glasses, hats and sun protective clothing doesn’t stop you from going outside and enjoying it or that eating healthy means you stop eating or adding exercise into your week doesn’t also stop you from enjoying your day but it can make you live longer and live a healthier life like keeping your joints in good health and bones since we know lifting weights is good for bone health.

Hi Dr. Stephani, I am autistic and have ADHD. I take a relatively high dose of a common stimulant medication which I have been on for approximately 15 yrs. I am studying to be a chemist at the University of Washington and greatly appreciate you providing peer reviewed research to us in KZbin land. I have learned so much from you and have implemented many of your suggestions into my ADLs. I was wondering what you knew about the effects of stimulant meds on our skin (particularly long term) and how to manage them? Many thanks 😊

Great video. This whole acceptance by people with mindsets that you have to love getting older. What actually is getting older/aging? It’s the cellular deterioration and breakdown of our bodies hormone system, neural processing, collagen breakdown , muscle wasting , decrease in organ function , etc. You have to be nuts or just plain lazy not to want to do all you can to avoid all the damage that comes with cellular aging. Also practicing kindness it’s wonderful for the soul and anti aging. Also Research in saunas have demonstrated they are beneficial to longevity and reversal of our body’s ability to restore cellular function in many areas. Thank you for all your insightful, informative videos. Many of us would be lost without them. 😊

[@LinkEX]

I'm all for longevity, and not a fan of romanticizing getting old either. That said, I think it's more about coming to peace with the aging process taking a toll on your body. Nothing wrong about trying to slow it down with a healthy lifestyle. But learning to become equanimous about getting older, practicing gratitude for the youth you got to experience, and ultimately accepting these losses. It is what you'll need to learn so that when you reach old age eventually, you don't end up like the various aging celebrities with appearance complexes. Once you've reached a certain number, society won't judge you for looking old, but trying too hard to look young.

I didnt know that high blood sugar could damage the skin. Thanks for the info :) Do you have a link about that topic?

[@--RBuo84]

I LOVE your infos! ❤But careful, in University we just learned, that plant based milk is even more (or equal) inflammatory because of vegetable oils high in PUFAs (poly unsaturated fats) which contain arachidonic acid and produce prostaglandins. Which is why arachidonic acid should also be avoided when somebody has an inflammitory condition such as rheumatism. It also causes dark spots on the skin and is the reason our eyes and liver get worse as we age. I would recommend to avoid PUFAs and instead eat oils such as olive oil, fresh salmon (omega-3-supplements have been found to be carinogenic).

Hi Stefani! First off, I want to shout you out for your amazing content, and clear throughput of all the hard work and wisdom you’ve cultivated to share with us. Thank you thank you sister! I was curious, on the topic of “smoking” here in the US cigarettes, and tobacco are common, but so is marijuana. So when you were covering that topic - are you speaking to both? My assumption was that being in the presence of smoke itself is a created irritant for the skin and causes collagen breakdown. I recently learned both cigarette and marinuana smokers have higher levels of heavy metals as well. Cheers to you and your beautiful work! 🎉❤

I’d love to hear Stefani’s take as well. I’m not a dermatologist so don’t have an in depth background on how self tanners affect the skin.

I def think stress caused some aging in the last year. Became extremely depressed this last year and having breakouts and from just being sad seemed like my face started some sag in the mid face. My forehead is ok and neck is still tight and not really much aging there. Just cheek lines deeper and mouth is turning down at corners. I’m 47 and people think I’m 15 years younger regularly. Don’t smoke, drink, tan, or eat a lot processed food. I have never been overweight. I think maybe it’s hormones too that could be causing the issues. Going to look into that. What do you think about visia skin age scans? Do you think they are accurate? It said I have less sun damage than 70% of others scanned. I don’t have many sun spots or pigmentation. Thanks for these videos. I love that your are very honest about your procedures and what you do to maintain great skin and beauty.

This whole list can seem overwhelming/excessive, but I'm not taking it as a suggestion to worry over ALL of it. Rather, it's more of a "Here's the landscape. Make whatever informed decisions are best for you." Know about the major degradation vectors and choose ones that are easier or more palatable to address. For example, I'm not giving up coffee (it has plenty of compensatory benefits), but I will now be more mindful of how high-sugar foods might affect my skin or whether or not I have a second cocktail with dinner, etc.

About uv protection I find all creams very oily and I have oily skin, so it's a nightmare to put on a sun screen every day. So what I found is a foundation with uv protection. What I use now is spf25. Do you think that's good protection? Is it as effective as a sun protection in a face cream?

Should we wear sunscreen inddors since blue light contributes to degrade collagen? And do air purifiers clear indoor air of collagen damaging pollutants? Also I wish you'd elaborate on which ingredients in skincare damage collagen over time. I'm guessing that anything irritating falls in this category though.

Yes we should wear sunscreen indoors ☀️ #antiaging #skincare #sunscreen
