How to Keep Your Skin Glowing

Keep the Glow Going

· Don't smoke. It ages your skin and encourages wrinkling.
· Eat lots of fruits, vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains for healthy skin.
· Exercise every day. Exercising helps your skin by increasing blood flow. And sweating flushes out dirt from your skin.
· Find ways to de-stress. Stress can make your skin more sensitive and worsen breakouts.
· Stay out of the sun. Get a fake tan if you want more color.

Skip the Taco Bell run: Five days of eating a junk-food diet can deteriorate your memory, finds new Australian research. 

Even though the holidays mean sugar cookies and pigs in a blanket being pushed in your face, this study shows that just a few days of poor eating can be bad for your brain. 

Balance the no-so-healthy party food with the good stuff: fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and lean protein.
