In 2001 I recall seeing a TV program that had shown three profiles of women. One of the ladies was a 27 year old working for Runners World magazine. She had run five marathons in the last year and half at the time and she always wore sunscreen. One lady had no steady activity and the other lady had moderate activity on a daily basis regarding physical fitness. I guessed that the runner would be the one that held up the best over time but I was wrong the program claimed the lady with the moderate exercise routine would fare best over time. Here were the tips presented for what determines a more youthful appearance as we age.
A womans diet (eat fish).
Too little sleep.
50 minutes of cardiovascular activity daily.
Use sunscreen.
Take vitamins everyday (C and E).
8 glasses of water a day.
