6- Alcohol
Don’t be alarmed! We are not suggesting that you completely abstain from alcohol. When it comes to premature aging, the problem is excessive drinking. Getting utterly blasted causes free radical damage throughout your body, especially if the drinks are sugary. Alcohol also depletes the body of vitamin A, which is essential for cell regeneration and turnover.
So, by all means, raise a glass or two to your friends. However, avoid those with a lot of sugar (think mixers like juice or soda) and instead choose wine, champagne, or mixed cocktails with soda water and lime. It’s also a good idea to alternate each alcoholic beverage with water to stay hydrated.
