| Hello, Welcome to the fourth issue of Rejuvenate The Anti Aging Ezine.
In This Issue:
Stress and AgingHow stress is affecting the aging process
Who has not got stress in their life? In our fast paced world there are many demands that we have to cope with on a day to day basis that can lead to a constant level of stress. Work, money, health, children, relationship issues and worries can lead to high stress levels. As a result, we can be constantly stressed and have little time to relax. Some of us even forgot how to relax.
Stress causes a chemical reaction in our bodies. So how would a constant level of stress effect the aging process?
When under stress, our adrenal glands release the hormone cortisol. Prolonged levels of cortisol in the bloodstream can lead to health problems like a suppressed thyroid function, blood sugar imbalances and a lowered immunity. The hormonal imbalances and negative effects on the health speed up the aging process as the body looses the war to restore and repair damaged cells.
In the face constant stress leads to deep facial lines as we tend to frown more when under stress. Even though frownlines are the more visible signs of stress, there are the least dangerous. However, frownlines do make us look older.
Good stress fighters are exercise, meditation, yoga, tai chi, relaxing massages, aromatherapy or a relaxing bath. Often it is a matter of taking some time out for yourself and do what you enjoy doing. This may be reading a good book or listening to music. You'll feel more refreshed, alert, be able to cope better and in the end stay healthier and younger for longer. See also

Natural Skin Care ProductsIs our skin care poisoning us?Not every natural skin care product that claims to be natural is in fact natural. Many so call natural skin care products contain chemical preservatives like Parabens.Parabens have been given bad rap lately as they have been linked to breast cancer. Chemical preservatives have been traditionally used in cosmetic for years. Without them the products would not last their shelf live and go off. What is the alternative? Well, you could make your own skin care. However, skin technology derives highly effective ingredients that can in fact act in our skin. I doubt the effectiveness of home made products. The skin is an amazing organ that has the ability to repair itself. With the toxic overload from the environment and skin care products the body is slowly loosing the war in rejuvenating itself.
Natural skin care products that are free of chemical preservatives and still offer high tech ingredients are the answer. Read more about
