By Dr. Karuna Malhotra 

The process of ageing cannot be stopped but it can definitely be delayed. Here are the list by which you can delay the ageing process.

Drink Plain Water: Hydrating will help beat that groggy feeling and make your skin looks and feel glowing best (both now and later in life), Water helps in digestion, absorption, transport of nutrients and elimination of the body's wastes. It detoxifies the body and improves skin's turgidity to keep wrinkles at bay.  

Time for some Vitamin C: Bite on some juicy oranges or sweet lime or amla that come loaded with isoflavones. Isoflavones are known to reduce hot flashes in women and increase the bone mineral density. Citrus foods also retain the skin's freshness and glow by acting as sun blockers.  

Have Green tea: Green tea has much anti oxidants. It kick-starts metabolism and can help fend off breast cancer. It slows down the formation of dark circles and wrinkles and also acts as a natural antibiotic that helps in building immunity to
keep minor ailments away , lowers your blood pressure, research from the University of Western Australia also suggests.

Walk away wrinkles with a 10 mins of walking: A brisk power walk every morning is a good way to keep your heart healthy. Walks strengthen the nervous system, which is bound to slow down with age. It improves blood circulation and cleanses the lymph fluids to give you greater immunity. It also helps in delaying the physical signs of ageing such as pain in the joints.  

Have a milky way: Before going to bed in the night grab a glass of milk. Your system will thank you for it. Your skeleton will love the calcium, and your muscles will love the protein. You'll wake up even stronger.

Last but not the least homemade mask:  Take 1 tablespoon tomato juice,2 tablespoon of oats, 1/2 tablespoon of yogurt (curd),mix them well and apply this paste on affected areas for about 15 minutes and wash it off with lukewarm water. With regular use you will see a noticeable change. This pack can be used 3 times a week and it suitable for all skin types.
