Exercise for the mind, body … and skin

Health experts say regular exercise can go a long way in improving skin’s health, from reducing acne breakouts, to cleansing the skin of toxins, and even keeping our skin looking young.

Exercise:

1. Increases circulation and gives better blood flow to the skin, helping to remove toxins
2. Provides skin cells with a healthy dose of oxygen and nutrients needed to produce collagen ― the structural support that helps plump your skin and minimize lines and wrinkles
3. Helps control the production of testosterone-related hormones that lead to acne flare-ups.

So next time you’re thinking of treating yourself to a skin treatment at the spa, hit the gym instead!
