Celebrities like Vanessa Hudgens, Naomi Watts or Hailey Steinfeld adore facialist Joanna Vargas' treatments. In addition to her sessions on her Fifth Avenue spa, the skin expert also has her own line of products and has just released a book with the kind of advice she has spent years sharing with her VIP clientele, focused primarily on how you can help improve the health of your skin and prevent premature aging, dark circles, blemishes and a host of beauty headaches based on a good diet.
In his book, Glow from Within (Harper Wave), Vargas distinguishes between two types of food: "glow foods", which help you shine from within, as the title of the book suggests, and those other foods that turn you off. For example, sugar is part of the second category, as our friend JLo knows well, who underwent a challenge for which she did not take any sugar in 10 days.
"Sugar interferes with the production of collagen, raises your insulin levels, causes dehydration and slows down your lymphatic system, which can result in wrinkles, swelling or loss of luminosity," explains the expert.
According to this guide, sugar molecules mix with fat and protein molecules in a process known as glaciation. This process generates substances known as AGEs that interfere with the production of collagen, which, as you know, is the key protein that keeps the skin's structure in tone and prevents it from hanging, wrinkling or looking dull.
The expert even talks about the "Sugar Face" effect, which is when you have a red face, with pimples or without shine, with wrinkles and dark circles. The best way to avoid these effects is obviously to eliminate or reduce your sugar intake, especially processed sugar. That is, goodbye to cookies, cakes and soft drinks.
Pero, insiste la experta, no olvides que el azúcar también se esconde en otro tipo de alimentos que no te esperas, como la pasta o el pan de harina blanca. ¡Presta atención a los ingredientes y tu piel te lo agradecerá!
