Losing weight can become a little trickier as we get older. If wrestling with our slowing metabolisms isn't enough, we also have to contendwith changes to the elasticity in our skin as our body changes. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to maintain your glow – and they’re healthy for the rest of you, too!
THE MAIN FACTORS
Nu Skin product specialist Dr Helen Knaggs says there are a few things that affect the way our skin responds to changes in body size.
One of the most important factors is our diet – more about that in a moment – along with the number of kilos that you shed. “The longer an individual has been overweight, the more difficult it can be for skin to regain its slimmer shape,” she explains.
Thankfully, she says it’s not all bad news. “Slow weight loss on healthy, nutrient-rich diets can help minimise some of these effects.”
