Foods That Can Age Your Skin

  • 8 years ago
What you eat affects your skin, and some foods can age your skin. Certain ingredients such as salt and spices, as well as heavily grilled food, may affect how you look. The acidity in energy drinks strips teeth enamel so they stain more easily. Black charred food contains pro-inflammatory hydrocarbons that break down collagen. And black tea's high tannin content can stain teeth. If you drink a lot of alcohol, the toxins can build up in the liver and cause skin issues like acne, sallowness, and wrinkles. And finally, too much salt makes you retain water and causes puffiness. To fight it, try using a moisturizer that contains caffeine.
