The finding of foods from natural sources has been a dream of scientists and scholars since ancient times. Socrates Said,” Let foods be your medicine, and let medicine be your foods”. Let all of us exercise the values of the past wisdom to build a letter of living and living health while enjoining these delicious drinks.
Scientists may have found a combination of natural sources with promising potential in foods for the treatment of skin aging, some scientists suggested
The Anti Aging smoothie
Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
1/2 cup wolfberry
1 cup avocado and 4-6 ice cubes
1 cup green tea drink (Make from 4 grams(2 tea bags) of green tea, a slice of ginger, and a cup of hot water lipped for 5 minutes, and set aside for cooling to room temperature)
1. Place all ingredients in a blender and puree for about 1 minute
2. Blend on high speed for about 1 minute or until the mixture is thick and the ice is well crushed. Add more green tea drinks if needed
3. Serve immediately.
Skin aging is one of the most visible processes which occurs constantly in our skin organs.
According to the Clinical Centre of Nis, certain plant extracts may have the ability to scavenge free radicals, protect the skin matrix through the inhibition of enzymatic degradation, or to promote collagen synthesis in the skin, affecting skin elasticity and tightness(1).
Wolfberry is the common name for the fruit of two very closely related species, the genus of Lycium, belongings to the family Solanaceae, native to native to southeastern Europe and Asia.
The fruits inhibit anti-aging by improving skin SOD activity, reducing skin MDA contents, and increasing Hyp content activities(2).
On non enzyme glycation in D-galactose induced mouse aging model, achyranthes bidentata polysaccharide (ABP) and Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) found in wolfberry improved skin aging through superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity(3).
Furthermore, the extreme day cream (EXD) and extreme night treatment (EXN), including wolfberry, attenuated the biological effects of skin photo-damage through the reduction of cell apoptosis in the epidermis of skin organ cultures and pro-inflammatory cytokine(4).
Green tea has been a precious drink in traditional Chinese culture and used exceptionally in socialization for more than 4000 thousand years. Because of their health benefits, green tea has been cultivated for commercial purposes all over the world.
Oxidative damage by reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a major role in skin aging. Green tea extracted showed to inhibit toxic ROS-induced skin death, through protection from H(2)O(2)-induced necrosis in a dose-dependent manner(10), improvement of the anti-wrinkle effects, through its antioxidant activity(5), skin roughness, through moisturizing effects and enhancement of skin microrelief(6) and inhibition of skin inflammation for managing allergic contact dermatitis without skin toxicity(7).
A combination of topical application of green tea and lotus, exhibited an anti-aging effect on skin roughness (SEr), scaliness (SEsc), smoothness (SEsm), and wrinkling (SEw)(8) and composition of a formulation containing 20 % green tea extract and 5 % rose oil, exhibited a skin barrier function for maintaining skin hydration and protecting against anti-aging process(9).
Avocados are a commercially valuable fruit and are cultivated in tropical climates throughout the world, it is a green-skinned, pear-shaped fruit that ripens after harvesting and is native to the Caribbean, Mexico, South America, and Central America, belongings to the flowering plant family Lauraceae.
Growing rats fed with diets containing 10% (w/w) of the tested avocado oils, showed to increased soluble collagen content due to a result of a consequence of the inhibition of lysyl oxidase activity(11).
In wound healing in rats, after the 14th day of treatment with 50% SSFAO or avocado oil containing rich sources of oleic acid and essential fatty acids, exhibited a significant increase in percentage wound contraction and reepithelialization(12).
In Exposing skin to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, unique lipid molecules, polyhydroxylated fatty alcohols (PFA), extracted from avocado, reduced significantly UV-induced cellular damage, through increasing cell viability, decreased the secretion of IL-6, a pro-inflammatory cytokine and an anti-inflammatory myokine in mediated the inflammation process(13).
Taken together, we should all drink this smoothie as much as we can to prevent the early onset of aging. Diet and lifestyle changes are also recommended.
