Jennifer Lopez is a famous American singer, actress, dancer and fashion designer. However, when mentioning J.Lo, people not only remember her career successes, but what makes everyone extremely surprised is why J.Lo is always young and never ages?
On April 27, J.Lo turned 50, but looking at the “On The Floor” singer’s appearance, everyone thinks she is about 20 years younger than her actual age. Discovering this, many famous newspapers interviewed J.Lo to find out the secret to maintaining her beauty and youthfulness like today. Let’s see what J.Lo shared to see that staying young is not difficult at all!
Never skip a workout
Almost all of us have made excuses to skip a workout. But not J.Lo. She knows that working out is the most effective way to keep her body flexible and youthful. The secret that J.Lo reveals to help her consistently work out every day is to find something new in each workout, such as changing the movements, tools, locations, and even changing the trainer. In addition, according to J.Lo, you should also combine different exercises to avoid boredom.
Eat a balanced diet of protein, lots of green vegetables and fruits
J.Lo’s meals prioritize lean protein, healthy fats and complex carbs like brown rice and sweet potatoes. J.Lo also makes a point to cut out processed foods high in sugar and chemicals. Her favorite foods are green vegetables, fruits, whole grains and fish of all kinds. In particular, J.Lo also shares her secret to staying slim, which is to drink lots of water during meals so that your stomach feels full and you will automatically eat less.
Drink plenty of water but stay away from caffeinated and alcoholic drinks
J.Lo’s rule is to drink enough water every day to keep the body hydrated effectively. This is not only good for health but also helps keep the skin moist and smoother. She shared: “I usually drink a lot of water, especially before and after exercise, this will help limit dehydration and exhaustion during exercise.”
In addition, J.Lo also said that she has not consumed any caffeine for many years. If she drinks coffee, J.Lo also chooses decaffeinated coffee. And following the advice of nutritionists, J.Lo has long stopped drinking alcohol.
Building smart snacking habits
Snacking is a habit that is very tempting for anyone. Therefore, instead of having to suffer from not snacking, J.Lo changed her snacks in a smart way. Instead of eating foods that are easy to gain weight and are not good for beauty such as chips, sweets, fast food, prepackaged foods… J.Lo prioritizes choosing healthy snacks between meals: “I always bring fruits and vegetables to snack on between meals.”
Take time to rest properly
Although busy with work and exercises, J.Lo always takes time to rest. Her number one beauty secret is to always get enough sleep. J.Lo always makes sure she gets at least 8 hours of sleep every day. Because only when she gets enough sleep can her body cells and skin cells be effectively restored.
Don’t forget to take care of your skin
J.Lo said that you don’t necessarily have to spend too much time on skin care or use expensive cosmetics. And the two cosmetics that J.Lo often uses are moisturizer and sunscreen. J.Lo said that her skin care routine is to always remember to wash her face thoroughly after exercising. That helps keep pores clean and skin healthier.
