Anjali Mukerjee Shares Anti-Ageing Secrets You Must Know About

The human body is a complex system that constantly changes and adapts with age. Some of the most visible signs of ageing are apparent through changes in hair colour, skin, weight, and overall health. While there is no way to avoid ageing, there is no denying that everyone wants to slow the process as much as they can.  In fact, there are certain healthy food items or nutrients such as vitamins that may help you look younger and work as anti-ageing agents. Nutritionist Anjali Mukerjee has shared an Instagram post discussing three anti-ageing secrets.        

In the caption, the expert says, “Anti-oxidant rich food proves to be a powerful armour against diseases as well as the ageing process. The basic 3 antioxidants are Vitamin C, E and Beta-carotene. These help you to stay healthier and they stop or slow down the oxidation process by neutralizing the free radicals.”
