盘点会让你加速衰老的十个坏习惯

 　　Sooner or later, we all start to look old. Maybe it's gray hairs mysteriously appearing at the temples, or maybe it's a handful of not quite massive, but also not quite fine lines stretching across a once smooth forehead.

　　总有一天，我们会变老。或许是太阳穴周围突然长了白头发，又或许是光滑的额头出现了一条条不多但也不好看的细纹。

　　These are those bad habits; do yourself a favor and avoid them at all costs.

　　以下这些都是会加速衰老的坏习惯，帮自己一个忙，尽量改掉这些坏习惯吧。

　　盘点会让你加速衰老的十个坏习惯

　　1.Soaking Up Too Much Sun

　　1.长期接触日光

　　In fact, it's everyday rays that tend to do the most long term harm, since so many people forget (or neglect) to apply any sort of SPF to their poor, uNPRotected skin on the daily, leaving it susceptible¹ to UV-induced damage and cancer.

　　事实上，对我们皮肤造成长期损害的是每天都要接触到的光线，因为大多数人会忘记或者说忽视每天涂抹防晒霜来保护我们脆弱的皮肤，这让它更容易受到紫外线辐射引起的损伤和癌症。

　　2.Or Not Getting Enough Of It

　　2.或者没有接触到足够的光照

　　there are also studies out there that show Vitamin D deficiencies, caused by not getting enough natural light exposure, can also lead to certain types of advanced-stage cancers.

　　有研究表明，皮肤没有接受到足够的自然光照会造成维他命D缺乏，也会导致某些类型的晚期癌症。

　　3.Not Getting Nearly Enough Sleep

　　3.睡眠不足

　　It's been barely a hot second since we talked about sleep deprivation², so we won't get into explicit³ detail here, but let's just say that without a solid 8 hours, you can kiss your youthful, elastic⁴, pimple-free skin goodbye.

　　这几乎是我们第二次谈到睡眠不足所引发的问题了，所以我们不再细讲，但我们必须提醒大家，每天睡眠时间不足8小时，你就可以和你年轻，有弹性，光滑的皮肤说再见了。

　　4.Ignoring Moisturizer (Or Using the Wrong Stuff)

　　4.忽略润肤霜（或者说乱用护肤品）

　　Every man's skin has its own specific needs. Some guys have extremely oily skin; others are as dry as the goddamn Sahara.

　　每个人的皮肤都有自身独特的需要。一些人的皮肤偏油性；一些人的皮肤又干得像撒哈拉沙漠一样。

　　Whichever way your skin leans, if you're not moisturizing regularly, and with skin type-specific stuff, you're doing yourself a disservice.每个人的皮肤都有自身独特的需

　　如果你没有定期使用适合你肤质的护肤品滋润皮肤，无论你的皮肤偏向于哪一类型，都会对你皮肤造成伤害。

　　5.Using Cheap-Ass Soap

　　5.使用廉价肥皂

　　We get it, good soap can be expensive.

　　我们都知道，好的肥皂都不会便宜。

　　But that dime-a-dozen drugstore stuff is only going to take its own toll⁵ in the long run, stripping skin of necessary natural oils and leaving behind a film of residue⁶ that'll continue to mess with your pelt⁷ as the day goes on. So get yourself something at least half-decent.

　　但那种不值钱的便宜药店卖的肥皂只为了长期经营，有自己的收费标准，会将皮肤分泌的自然油脂洗掉，剩下一层残留的膜，而这些膜随着时间的推移会使皮毛杂乱不堪。所以至少给自己买一些中等质量的护肤品。

　　6.Not Staying Active

　　6.没有保持皮肤活跃

　　Fun fact: working out won't only keep your muscles taut⁸, but it'll also do the same for your skin.

　　很有趣的事实是：锻炼不仅能让肌肉保持紧绷，对皮肤也能起到同样的效果。

　　That is, exercise has been shown to keep skin looking healthier for longer by improving blood flow to the outer layers, which in turn boosts oxygen levels and sweeps away harmful waste products.

　　那就是，锻炼可以促进血液流动到外层皮肤使皮肤看起来持久更健康，同时反过来又能提高氧气水平，排出身体里的有害物质。

　　7.Stressing Out

　　7.压力过大

　　Over the years, scientists discovered that stress, and the elevated cortisol levels that goes along with it, can be tied to anything from heart disease and hypertension to decline in libido⁹ levels, erectile dysfunction.

　　近几年来，科学家们发现，从心脏病和高血压到性欲水平下降、勃起功能障碍的任何一项疾病都与压力和伴随压力升高的皮质醇水平有关。

　　So it's not at all surprising that stress can mess with the skin, further decreasing collagen over time.

　　所以压力会对皮肤造成损害并不奇怪，长期下去还会使胶原蛋白进一步流失

　　8.Not Eating The Right Stuff

　　8.饮食不当

　　The good: omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, fiber¹⁰, low-glycemic meals, Vitamins A, C, and E.

　　有益的：ω-3脂肪酸、抗氧化剂、纤维、低糖饮食，维生素A，C和E.

　　The bad: inflammatory foods, sugary snacks, high-fat meat. You are what you eat, as they say.

　　有害的：炎性食品，含糖零食，高脂肪肉类。也应了那句话，吃什么就像什么。

　　9.Drinking More Than Your Fair Share

　　9.饮酒过多

　　Ever noticed how heavy drinkers tend to look that much older than their teetotaling counterparts? Well, consider that mystery solved.

　　你应该注意过酗酒的人看起来会比不喝酒的同龄人老得多，所以，这样想想，疑惑不就解开了吗。

　　10.Smoking

　　10.吸烟

　　Seriously, you need another reason to quit smoking?

　　说真的，你还需要我告诉你其他戒烟的理由吗？
