Good new Kirstie Alley!
The Archives of Dermatology is claiming that if the more you weigh, the less wrinkles you’ll have.
A study follwed the aging patterns on 65 pairs of identical twins and found that while weight made the heavier twin look older, it slowly reversed at age 54 making them look younger in the face.
The reason?
As we age, we begin to lose our natural spongy collagen that keeps our pretty little faces firm. Those who are heavier camouflage the loss with fat while those who are thin begin to look gaunt.
But don’t go packing on the pounds just yet.
The more sugar you eat the quicker collagen will break down. Not to mention that those who weigh more, tend to have bigger problems than looking old.
