In a society that values youth for its beauty and energy, ageing deserves special attention. ‘After 40, no one is young anymore. However, one can always be irresistible.’ These bold words challenge the common beliefs about ageing and beauty in women. But what do women think in this era?
Some may worry about signs of ageing at a young age and seek advice from aesthetic medicine experts. It's not just about looking good, though. By better understanding how our cells and tissues age, we can possibly slow down the process. Beyond aesthetics, tailored treatment, advice, and prevention methods can prevent other signs of ageing, such as osteoporosis, sarcopenia (muscle wasting), memory disorders, and loss of libido, using both lifestyle changes and medical interventions.
Self-practices for healthy ageing
- Exercise: Regular physical activity to maintain muscle strength and promote bone density.
- Balanced diet: Eating foods rich in fibre, to support the microbiome, as well as antioxidants and fatty acids that regenerate our cell membranes.
- Supplements: Stay informed about what could benefit you. Vitamin D, Zinc and Magnesium deserve a special mention here.
And let's not forget about the rollercoaster ride of menopause! It brings significant hormonal instability, but rest assured, there's the right kind of medical and health support available. Remember, it's never too late to make changes.
