No matter what beauty treatments you do and no matter how skillfully you apply makeup, your skin will never be perfect if you eat everything. What should be excluded from their diet for those who want to slow down the aging process, says dermatologist-cosmetologist Anna Ponomareva.
Coffee
Coffee has a significant drawback - it dehydrates the body. Internal organs also suffer from loss of fluid, but it is most noticeable on the skin, which lose elasticity due to lack of moisture. Coffee drinkers tend to have dry skin and premature wrinkles. What to do? First, do not forget that an adult body needs at least 2 liters of plain, still water a day for the normal functioning of internal organs. Coffee, tea, soda, juices, soups are not included in the category of "plain water" - this is food. Secondly, remember the rule that must be strictly observed: one cup of coffee is equal to 2 glasses of water. Thirdly, in order to preserve youth and beauty, it is better to reduce the use of coffee or even give it up altogether.
Alcohol
The effect of alcohol on the body is, in principle, difficult to classify as a "useful" category. It has a bad effect on the nervous system, and in excessive amounts is detrimental to the liver and kidneys, which are responsible for the elimination of toxins and toxins.
In addition, various alcoholic beverages provoke dehydration of the skin, which invariably leads to dryness and irritation, as well as swelling. There is only one way to the solution - it was voiced by the hero of the cult film "The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath!": "You need to drink less, you need to drink less."

Sugar
This product not only badly affects the condition of the teeth and leads to periodontal disease and caries, but also causes the premature appearance of wrinkles, as it raises blood sugar, while reducing immunity, therefore, affects the regeneration of cells, including skin cells. Against the background of the abuse of sweets, a decrease in collagen production and the appearance of wrinkles inevitably occur.
Milk
Milk contains a large amount of calcium, it is ideal for baby food, unless, of course, the child has no history of milk protein intolerance, but adults should use it with caution. It is this product that is the main reason for the so-called "milky face", which is evidenced by the presence of edema under the eyes, constantly swollen eyelids, spots on the skin. It has been proven that the body of an adult cannot fully cope with the digestion of lactose, which, in turn, leads to the accumulation of fluid in the intestines and causes edema. Among other things, milk, even in a packet and powder, contains a large amount of hormones similar in their properties to female sex hormones, therefore it provokes the appearance of foci of inflammation and pimples on the skin.
Soda
Drinking soda means voluntarily provoking the appearance of rashes and dryness of the skin. And since some types of this drink contain caffeine, they dehydrate the body.
Meat
Let's start with the fact that the most harmful types of meat are still red: beef, pork, lamb, etc. Not only is all the modern meat that we buy in supermarkets is stuffed at factories with various chemistry, but also the use of red varieties leads to the formation of free radicals in the body, which just affect the aging process, inevitably bringing it closer. And fried meat is also harmful because during the cooking process, toxic substances are released, which poison the body from the inside, which, in turn, leads to skin allergies and rashes.
Bread
White bread is a fast carbohydrate that is bad for your figure. Besides, flour products are not absorbed by our intestines and lead to digestive problems. And digestion and skin condition are interrelated things.
Sausage
Food additives, monosodium glutamate, salt, anti-caking agents, dyes - this is not a complete composition of sausages. In addition, a little meat with all the consequences, fat, and you no longer wonder why you have a pimple, rash, wrinkles or something else on your face.
Spicy
It is believed that acute stimulates metabolism, while it does not in the best way affect the condition of the skin. If you have a tendency to form a vascular network on the face, it is better to refrain from spicy food, as it dilates the blood vessels and makes them more visible.
Salt
First, I will say that everyone already knows: salt retains liquid. Therefore, it promotes edema and excess weight.
It also provokes dark circles under the eyes, since it leads to a violation of local blood circulation, and blood stagnation is always bruising.
