THE name Liz Earle is synonymous with the cleanse & polish cleanser that became a cult-favourite over 15 years ago.
But the woman behind the brand often stays out of the limelight, letting her classic skincare take the lead.
But now the 61-year-old has opened up about how she reversed her biological clock[/caption]
Thankfully, Liz Earle, now 61, has sat down with Dr. George to discuss all things beauty – including reversing her biological age.
Speaking on the Stormcast podcast, Liz opened up about how her biological clock is 20 years younger.
Liz revealed that a couple of years ago she would have never publicly discussed being 61, due to society deeming it as old – something she didn’t identify with.
She added: “But biologically, I am actually 39.”
Liz then revealed some of her favourite tips to reverse ageing, inside and outside.
The first tip Liz gave was to ‘lighten up.’ Like most of us, Liz spent a lot of her time feeling stressed or worrying too much, which has been proven to age us.
A study published in Cell Metabolism has found that biological age increases with stress, but can return to normal levels when stress levels decrease.
She also revealed that adding protein to her diet has greatly shifted her biological age and helped her physically.
Liz, who has shifted her career to focus on overall wellness rather than skincare also said the type of exercise you do can make a massive impact.
While she spent years in the gym doing step classes and hard cardio, she has now swapped it for lifting weights and HIT exercises.
“That is doing far more for me,” she explained.
“The other thing I also didn’t really pay any attention to at all which I now really put up my priority list and that’s sleep,” Liz added.
“Sleep is a superpower.”
Not only does it help with brain function it also helps cells rejuvenate and slow down the ageing process.
How to reverse ageing in just 2 weeks, according to royal go-to nutritionist
LONDON -based Gabriela Peacock, who has helped the likes of Prince Harry and Princess Eugenie prepare for their weddings.
She told Fabulous: “The science is evident that we all have the power to make simple life changing alterations to better our future selves – no matter what genetic hand we might have been dealt with.
“The reality is, we all sometimes indulge in unhealthy eating habits like processed foods, smoking cigarettes, drinking too much alcohol, inhaling city pollutants, and even drinking water from plastic bottles – none of this is good for us.
“All this does is promote the ageing process, but we all have the potential to change this.”
It may be hard, but try to keep away from sugary carbohydrates, because they feed chronic inflammation, which is one of the worst enemies of reversing ageing.
Now only will you end up putting on weight if you consume them regularly, but your energy and hormonal levels will be affected and this will influence how you look and feel.
Whatever your age or state of health, it’s never too late to reverse how quickly you are ageing and embrace the energy and vigour of a younger you.
Antioxidants, such as vitamins A, C, and E, are essential in neutralising free radicals—the culprits behind premature ageing.
Integrating a spectrum of colourful fruits and vegetables into your diet provides a potent source of antioxidants.
Omega-3 fatty acids, abundant in fatty fish like salmon and flaxseeds, are vital for maintaining skin elasticity and hydration.
Omega-3s act as nourishment for your skin, locking in moisture and diminishing fine lines and wrinkles.
Collagen, a structural protein dwindling with age, can be replenished through collagen-rich foods like bone broth and lean protein sources.
Many people enjoy a drink, and while we may like it the night before it’s a different story in the morning.
While Liz says she tries not to drink, there is one tablet that can help.
Liz also swears by Liposomal glutathione, an antioxidant that can detoxify the liver she said that the first time she tried it she woke up and it was like ‘Somebody had put new batteries in my body.’
Not only does it help with hangovers it’s also a good supplement to take for overall health.
