As per some studies, alcohol can cause premature wrinkles, loss of elasticity in skin, dry skin while smoking can cause grey hair, yellow teeth, baggy eyes and so on. If you wish to look younger or age slower, you will have to quit smoking and drinking and consumption of other substances. However, drinking in moderate is still fine. Image: Getty
Junk eating
Can eating affect the ageing process? Yes, of course it can. Anything that is high on saturated fats, deep-fried, packed with sugar will speed up the ageing process. Diet plays an important role when you are striving to slow down ageing process and have to get a beautiful skin. If you have habit of gorging on French fries, burgers, doughnuts and so on, quit it and start including healthy foods in your diet. A little tweak in diet will not only slow down the ageing process but will also help you have a healthy and beautiful skin. Image: Getty
Laziness
This one is self-explanatory. If you are too lazy to walk or move around, you will age faster. Regular exercise tones up your entire frame making you look young. Also, being physically active slows down ageing process. Image: Getty
The way you carry yourself
Your posture has a huge impact on how you look to others. Posture plays an important role. If you slouch while walking, standing and sitting, your posture will make you look slightly older. If you are a woman, slouching will make your breast look saggy while for men, slouching will cause them to have a belly. Yoga and certain exercises can fix posture problems. Standing and sitting straight does not only make one look good but keeps the spine in healthy state. Images: Getty
