I am a big believer in diet.  There are plenty of people who are implying that you can turn the hands of time back by eating the right diet and so many nations are younger looking because of their diets.  I don’t think it’s so much about turning back aging as it is about preventing the process of premature aging in the first place and even in some cases looking years younger for years to come. 

 For example, there are some who would say that Norwegian cultures eat a lot of Omega-3 which would ideally keep your skin moisturized but not oily.  Realistically when your skin is more moisturized, even if it means oily, it’s going to keep it in that kind of younger shape, though it might cause acne breakouts.  But a lot of Asian cultures focus on fruits and vegetables.  This can provide vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that the body needs anyway.  But realistically speaking, it also affects the skin. 

After all, the skin manifests inner problems, and it needs nutrients of its own to protect the rest of your body from the elements.  So why wouldn’t strengthening it in that way help?  Antioxidants of course fight off free radicals.  But all in all, I think the whole diet thing definitely has some basis.
