5 snacks that 40-year-old women should avoid

NGUYỄN LY (T/H) |

The habit of snacking on unhealthy foods can cause aging in women under 40 years old to age faster.

French fries and fried foods

Dishes high in oil can easily increase blood fat, cause inflammation and accelerate skin aging. According to Dr. Amy Goodson, a sports nutritionist in the US: Transa fat from fried foods can destroy collagen, causing skin to melt quickly.

Sweet candy and milk chocolate

High sugar intake not only increases the risk of diabetes but also causes glycation, causing collagen and elastin fibers in the skin to harden, making the skin less elastic.

Sweet water

Phosphoric acid in soft drinks can reduce bone density, while sugar and artificial sweeteners have a negative impact on cardiovascular health.

Processed foods

Like sausages, bacon. These dishes contain a lot of salt and preservatives, easily causing water retention, edema, and increasing blood pressure.

Packaged snack cakes

This is a source of empty calories, high in salt and bad fats, which can easily cause weight gain, especially in women with slow metabolism.

Experts recommend that women over 40 should replace unhealthy snacks with nuts, fresh fruits or unsweetened yogurt. Nutritionist Samantha Cassetty (USA) emphasizes: "Smart snacking options can help middle-aged women control their weight, protect their cardiovascular system and maintain healthy skin".
