Younger Looking Skin: The Science of Reversing Aging with Rachel Varga
High Performance Health
The Problems With Blue Light and Aging Skin
The eyes are the first part of the face to show signs of aging. Blue light penetrating a hundred nanometers deeper into the skin than naturally occurring UVA and UVB rays that you're getting outside. Wearing sunscreen on high real estate areas every day, in my opinion, is absolutely imperative.
Skin is an integral part of any high performance strategy, and with this in mind, Angela welcomes to the show this week, Rachel Varga, an international speaker and a five-time academically published award-winning author in the field of regenerative and aesthetic nursing.
Rachel discusses the ways in which we can biohack our way to healthy skin, the secrets of anti-aging, and how we can look and feel younger by embracing natural approaches.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Ensure you're using products that are free of certain toxins such as sulphates and artificial dyes. Also avoid substances that have been tested on animals.
- The approach to changing up our product usage applies not just to the products we put directly onto the skin, but also a ore holistic range, such as soaps, cleaning products and detergents that have contact directly with us.
- Blood flow is essential to having good skin. It carries oxygen and nutrients to the tissues, and also detoxes, carrying away metabolic waste products.
- Many clinics are using counterfeit or low-quality lasers in order to perform skin procedures. Its always worth researching not just the specialists you hoe to visit, but the equipment they use.
