How Does Smoking Make You Age Faster?,,Aging Skin: 7 HabitsThat Make Skin Age Faster

Many of the external causes of aging skin are determined by the health and lifestyle decisions you make every day. Making unhealthy choices can cause prematurely aging skin, and this makes you look older, faster.
An important part of any anti-aging skin care program is to know what you may be doing that is harming your skin and speeding up your skin's aging process.
Here are 7 habits that contribute to aging skin, making you look older than your years:

  1. Cigarette smoke: Whether you smoke, or you spend time with a smoker, cigarette smoke is damaging -- and aging -- to your skin. Research has shown that exposure to cigarette smoke significantly increases skin wrinkles and dryness. This is partly due to the behavior of smoking, and also because cigarette smoke depletes your body of Vitamin C, which is a key ingredient for keeping skin plump and moist. Some researchers believe that exposure to cigarette smoke (whether you smoke or not) is as damaging to aging skin as exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays.
  2. Sun exposure: Sun exposure is very aging to skin. Unprotected skin that is exposed to the sun becomes more mottled in appearance. Freckles can turn into brown sun spots, the skin takes on a dry, leathery appearance, and wrinkles and sagging increase. The risk of skin cancer is significantly increased by sun exposure. The good news is that sun damage is avoidable, and if you start now, you can improve the condition of sun damaged skin.
    • See your health care provider to assess the amount of sun damage you may have, and to rule out possible skin cancers. He or she may be able to prescribe medication that can help to reduce existing sun damage.
    • If you want to avoid aging skin but don’t want to avoid the sun, make sure you use sunscreen that protects against both UVA and UVB rays. Choose sunscreen with SPF of 15 or higher, and use it all year-round, even on cloudy days. Clouds do not protect you from ultraviolet ray exposure.
  3. Lack of exercise: Living a sedentary life contributes to aging skin, because exercise helps to tone your muscles and get your blood flowing. Exercise should be an important part of every anti-aging skin care program. Researchers have also discovered that sedentary older adults are at higher risk for dementia . In addition to the physical benefits of exercise, the benefits of a regular exercise program will show on your face. Having a bright smile and lots of energy will help you look and feel younger, at any age.
  4. Exposure to cold weather: Cold winds and low temperatures contribute to aging skin by making skin dry, so if you venture out in the cold be sure to use a good moisturizer. It’s important to use moisturizer indoors too, as heated rooms can be very drying to skin. Consider using a humidifier to help keep your skin more comfortable and reduce the aging skin effects of heated rooms.
  5. Alcohol use: Alcohol contributes to aging skin by dilating small blood vessels in the skin and increasing blood flow near the skin's surface. Over time, these blood vessels can become permanently damaged, creating a flushed appearance and broken vessels on the skin’s surface.
  6. Stress: Maybe you’ve heard this expression: “Don’t frown, your face could stay that way.” Stress and worry cause frowning, and over time the muscles in the face actually conform to that movement. To help reduce aging skin due to stress, be aware of your stress level and try to vary your facial expressions during the day. A good anti-aging skin care program should include meditation, yoga, gentle exercise or other relaxation techniques. Keeping stress in check -- and frown lines and aging skin wrinkles to a minimum -- will help you look and feel younger.
  7. Lack of sleep: Too little sleep makes you look and feel tired. One of the first places lack up sleep shows up is on the face, with dark circles and bags under the eyes, and sagging skin. Lack of sleep is also a major factor in memory loss and symptoms of depression that include low interest in daily activities and negative thinking. Research has shown that most adults function best with 8-9 hours of sleep each night. Reduce caffeine during the day (with none in the evening), avoid eating at least 2 hours before bedtime, and maintain a sleep routine that includes going to bed at the same time each night. For more sleeping tips, see How to Get a Good Night's Sleep.
    If you are having trouble sleeping, for any reason, it’s important to see your health care provider.


While some signs of aging skin are inevitable, there’s a lot you can do to look your best at any age. Taking good care of yourself is the most important step in your anti-aging skin care program.

Cigarette Smoke Affects Children Even If You Don't Smoke Near Them

Cigarette smoke has long been known to cause many different problems. Lung Cancer, Asthma, and Emphysema are just a few of those problems. Many mistakenly believe that if they only smoke outside, away from their children and never in the home, that the effects will go away. This is simply not the case. The side effects from second-hand smoke can still be serious even if you think you are being careful. The cigarette smoke remains on your clothing, in your hair, and even on your skin. There is no way to completely avoid cigarette smoke from remaining on you if you smoke.
Children who have Asthma, GERD, Acid Reflux, Lung Cancer, Emphysema, and other disorders are especially at risk, In fact, just by being a smoking parent, you may have unintentionally caused the disorder. Children who suffer from these symptoms should not be exposed to further cigarette smoke. It can worsen the symptoms and effects of these disorders.
As parents, we all want what's best for our children. While it is not a parent's fault for causing these disorders because of being uneducated, a parent who does know these facts is wrong for continuing to smoke.
Parental smoking is a leading preventable cause for Asthma and many other childhood diseases and conditions. see video below.



As stated above, even if you take all the necessary precautions, you are still carrying the smoke wherever you go. When you hug your child or even sit in the same room as your child, you are emitting harmful chemicals. These chemicals remain on clothing and in hair as long as you continue to smoke and for months after you quit. by Lyn Lomasi

Have You Ever Wondered What's In a Cigarette?

Many people are attracted to smoking cigarettes, cigars or even pipes as they feel it increases their style quotient. Few begin smoking cigarettes as they do not want to feel left out among friends and want to be accepted as member of a group. Teen smoking is mostly due to peer pressure or a way of expressing oneself. Some smoke because they feel puffing out the smoke is a way of letting out their tensions and worries. Some smoke simply because they are addicted to the nicotine and other ingredients found in cigarettes. There are many reasons for smoking given by those who are addicted to the cancer stick.

Before you take another puff, why don't you ask, what are the ingredients in cigarettes? Don't turn around the cigarette box in your hand, it hardly mentions 5% of the total ingredients in cigarettes. There are 599 additives approved by the US Government that can be used as ingredients in cigarettes. There are five major American cigarette companies who submitted the list of ingredients in cigarettes to the Department of Health and Human Services in April 1994. These 5 companies were:
  • American Tobacco Company
  • Brown and Williamson
  • Liggett Group, Inc.
  • Philip Morris Inc.
  • R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company
These ingredients were tested to be used as food additives. But burning these additives caused the substances to change their properties as harmful ingredients in cigarettes. There are over 4000 chemical compounds in the cigarette smoke that are toxic and carcinogenic in nature. There are 43 ingredients in cancer that have been proved as carcinogens for both active and passive smokers.
