Have you noticed in the mirror in the morning that even after eight hours of sleep, your skin is dull and tired? Is it possible to wake up in the morning and look a few years older? Unfortunately, yes, and the culprit may not be age, genetics, or a bad pillow. Your youth and energy are being stolen by an invisible and destructive process inside your body – oxidative stress.
This is a condition in which an imbalance occurs in the body between free radicals and antioxidants.
It is something like the body`s internal corrosion process. Similar to how oxygen and moisture affect iron, which then rusts, oxidative stress damages cellular structures in the body.
A high ratio of free radicals destroys the structure of collagen and elastin. These substances form fibres that keep our skin beautifully firm and elastic. The result of disruption is wrinkles, sagging skin, and loss of radiance.
Mitochondria function as energy producers inside cells. When mitochondria are hit by oxidative stress, they slowly start to lose their functionality. Energy then comes in less and less. That`s why you can often be and look tired and without energy, even if you`ve had enough hours of sleep.
What causes and increases oxidative stress:
The most powerful helpers with oxidative stress are antioxidants. And what are they?
They are shields that protect our cells. They catch free radicals before they can damage the skin, take away our energy or endanger our overall health.
Substances that have a positive effect on the internal structures and health of cells:

Practical tips on what you can do every day to combat oxidative stress.
1) Diet – Blueberries, blackberries, grapes, leafy vegetables and quality vegetable oils support cells and contain natural antioxidants.
2) Sleep – During deep sleep, the body produces melatonin, which is one of the most powerful natural antioxidants.
3) Body and skin care – Protective cosmetics with SPF and caring cosmetics rich in antioxidants effectively help protect cells even in the outer layer.
4) Regular exercise – Moderate physical activity every day helps to create your own antioxidant enzymes.
5) Psyche – Reducing stress limits the production of stress hormones that contribute to oxidative stress. On the contrary, when stress is reduced, the body has more strength to create its own antioxidants.
Ageing and a large loss of energy, it is not just nature, the solution is not only in genes. It is also our effort for balance and harmony of the body.
We cannot change the quality of the air or completely erase all the stress in life. No one can stop time either, but we can help our beauty in other ways. We can strengthen the protective shields of our cells. Every effort then counts. What you do to protect your cells now will come back with each passing year, and your cells will thank you.
