Skin rejuvenation: where to start?
First of all, you need to cleanse the body of toxins and toxins that have accumulated in it for many years. This is very important: everyone knows that these harmful substances adversely affect the condition of the skin, giving it an unhealthy yellow tint and contributing to its rapid aging.
All facelift procedures, including those performed by specialists in beauty salons and medical centers, will not give the desired result if your body is contaminated with toxins. And if the effect is, then it won't last long. Therefore, before starting facial rejuvenation, you should cleanse the body.
This is very easy to do. Just drink a glass of cold water every morning on an empty stomach. For what? And then, in the morning, your kidneys and intestines begin actively removing toxins and toxins from the body. A hot drink, on the other hand, slows down fermentation, as it is rapidly absorbed in the intestine and blocks the cleansing process.
Not all water is suitable for cleansing the body, it is better to use dissolved water.
But it is not recommended to drink anything at night, as even a harmless glass of water can lead to the fact that in the morning you wake up with a swollen face and bags under the eyes.
If you want to do a natural facial rejuvenation, you need to postpone breakfast after taking cold water until a later time, replacing heavy foods with light ones, for example vegetables, fruits, nuts, fresh juices and also like salads dressed with natural yogurt or lemon juice. It is also recommended to drink a glass of kefir at breakfast. At the same time, it is not worth eating bread or using mayonnaise for dressing salads, as this will only slow down the cleansing process of the body. At the same time, water should not be drunk neither before meals, nor during meals, nor after meals.
In addition, facial rejuvenation involves replacing regular tea and coffee with herbal tea, which must be prepared independently according to the following recipe: mix equal amounts of raspberry, rosehip and strawberry leaves and pour 1 liter of boiling water over them. Let it brew for 20-30 minutes and drink the resulting herbal tea as a tea. You can add sugar or honey to taste.
In addition, it is recommended to use other herbal infusions.
