Research has found that there is no Fountain of Youth but there are strategies for looking and feeling younger. These include:

• Exercising your mind
• Exercising your body
• Following a healthy diet
• Maintaining a healthy weight
• Taking good care of yourself
• Seeking prompt treatment when you're ill or injured
• Using sunscreen

If you smoke, quitting can be your most valuable ally in the fight against aging. Smoking damages your body in multiple ways. It can increase wrinkles and tend to make you look older along the way. Leading a smoke-free existence may be the most effective way you can prevent premature aging and death.
