It seems like humankind has searched for a fountain of youth forever. There's no such thing. That being said, making a few lifestyle changes can considerably slow the aging process. A lot of practices that age us are, unfortunately, integral parts of popular culture, and widely accepted custom. Here are a few tips that won't turn the clock back, but they'll slow it down...

#1 Cut down on screen time. That means, TV, computer, smartphone, tablet. They ramp your stress level, and emit blue light, which interferes with normal sleep patterns.

#2 Drink more water. The human body is 75% water. 'Nuff said.

#3 Exercise outdoors. Walking through your neighborhood, or a nearby park, is more effective at reducing stress than a treadmill or other indoor gym activities.

#4 Use sunscreen. Do I really have to explain this?

#5 Set a regular bed time. Your body responds to set routines with better health, and less stress when your sleep patterns are consistent.
