The reason for aging that causes skin trouble

18/03/2018health, Weight lossGold Coast, Mayumi Swan, SWAN FITNESSSWAN FITNESS

Japanese page（日本語ページ） → 肌トラブルを引き起こす老化の原因

Skin troubles are caused by aging.

It is said that the reason for aging is saccharification of blood.

What is saccharification of blood?

Sugar taken in from food is usually transported to all over the body through the blood and becomes an energy source for activity.

However, by eating too many sweet things and a lack of exercise, superfluous sugar comes to remain in the blood for a long time.

Then hemoglobin (Hb) which is protein in a red blood cell combines with glucose （C6H12O6）and changes into glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c).

This is saccharification of blood.

We can check the numerical value of glycosylated hemoglobin by having a blood check. The standard value is under 6.5 %.

What should we do to prevent from saccharification of blood?

Avoid the carbohydrate intake at night as much as possible

By restricting carbohydrates and controlling a blood‐sugar level, fat comes to burn easily.

Do a 30 min cardio exercise once a day

Serotonin in the brain, which is called `Happy hormone`, will be activated by a 30 min cardio exercise once a day.

Serotonin secrete in the day time changes to melatonin at night time.

Melatonin is an important substance which prevents our bodies from saccharification.

It has an antioxidative effect, lowers our body temperature and induces our sleep.

It is said that it takes about 90 days for all our blood cells to turn into new cells.

Why don’t you try cutting your carbohydrate intake at night and doing a 30 min cardio exercise once a day for about 3 months?
