I wonder why people always say no smoking and then no excess drinking as if no drinking was not even a possible option and the best option. As if drinking alcohol was mandatory like drinking water...
I do zoomba twice a day, yoga, and weightlifting- it helps with depression and anxiety. It keeps me vertical following the loss of my only cild in 2020. So does watching Dr. Dray- that also brought me out of my crippling depression.
Dr Dray! You have single handedly got me to start exercising, start eating healthy, limiting processed foods, resisting alcohol, applying and reapplying sunscreen, sleeping for at least 7 hours every night. What started off as google search to treat my acne has now changed my life drastically!
I'm currently 41 and of all the things that I've done to help with the aging process, skin & other areas of the body, inside and out, exercise was the one thing that improved things the most. It makes feel wonderful and look great at the same time. 💪🙂
@@dogie1070 Thank you! 😊 I started better skin care myself when I turned 40 as well 🙂 and it's thanks to Dr. Dray and her wonderful videos & valuable information.I can see the improvement in my skin for the better. I'm definitely embracing the aging process. 😊
I turned 53 this year. My husband and I started walking every afternoon because it's too expensive to take the car anymore. We both feel great, sleep better and feel more energetic. I always remember to apply my sunscreen before!! Thank you Dr. Dray for your videos!!
If I could nominate dr dray for national treasure, I would. She provides so much free and evidence based suggestions for skin and overall health! If everyone follows her advice, we can probably reduce the healthcare cost in US by a lot 😅
Whenever endorphins get mentioned my brain goes “Exercise releases endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people don’t shoot their husbands. They just don’t.”
I’m 47 and lift weights 5/6 days a week. I’ve never felt better physically and mentally. Working out and eating healthy have made a big difference in my quality of life. I’m thrilled to know it helps my skin as well.
During the height of the pandemic, I was terrible about exercising. Now I try to walk for at least 45 mins a day. It’s hard getting back into it but it feels so much better than sitting around.
I'm in the same situation. I started to workout more often the past two weeks. Keep the good work 👏, I will try to remember that it's for better skin to keep me motivated 😉.
You are preaching everything Miranda Esmonde-White has taught me. She is 73 yet she looks absolutely amazing, and she's quite fit. And it doesn't take beating ourselves up to stay to get there. Her workouts are very enjoyable to do daily and I've noticed quite a difference!
I have been a couch potato and one day I started dancing. I could tell you first hand…. my age started to move backwards. In my 55 I feel and look better then I was 45-47 Dancing brings not only exercise but a positive emotions in all ways of life. Keep on moving keep on feeling young.
Props to the good Dr for the amount of time it must take to educate yourself to this level on so many subjects. Thank you! You’re a fountain of knowledge and you’re really helping so many folks 😊
I loved this Dr Dray! You nailed it. All the expensive creams and procedures won’t make you young. I’ve exercised my whole life, everyday. I’m now 72 and look like I’m 50. My doctor called in two nurses on my last annual exam to have them guess my age. I have great muscle tone and no wrinkles at all. I also drink one tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil each morning and another at dinner time. I’m a size 2 still. I eat healthy foods. I see women who buy expensive products for their face, but are extremely overweight. I’m so happy you made this video. Hopefully it will motivate some. Thank you again…🙏 namaste.
It must be EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL. VERY DARK IN COLOR AND IN DARK BOTTLES. Also, look up the benefits of doing this. You will be amazed and never go a day without it. Best wishes.
Just… wow… love her message of positivity on the topic of anti-aging. I’m a 40 + woman who is trying to age gracefully and as naturally as possible. This is great content for me ❤ thank you 🙏🏽
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But it's not something you buy which is why the industry doesn't talk about it.
Hi Dr Dray! I have Fibromyalgia & agoraphobia but I also have a 1.5 year old puppy. He’s been my motivating factor to walk daily, several times a day, sometimes just around the block. It’s a struggle, being alone, in the cold Wisconsin weather, walk up apartment, but he’s gotten me to socialize, we go to the dog park almost daily, and then I walk around the perimeter of the park. I love your channel! I always wear my SPF & I got all my cousins to start wearing in their teens! Thanks for everything you do!
Keep it up! Fibromyalgia is hard (agoraphobia too!) and what you are doing is soooo good for your pain levels and keeping your flares managed. Doggos are amazing at helping with the stressors of pain management (the depression that comes with it) and overall happiness. I am glad that you got your pup and that you are able to get out in the world with them. 💜
I only started exercising when I found this channel in the pandemic. There was a video where you mentioned blogilates, I checked her out, and I've been consistent every since. (That's also when I started wearing sunscreen.) Thanks, Dr. D.
As a desk job untrained person I started (being older than 30) by going walking. I did it for the first couple of years gradually getting my body into tonus. Chronic depression prevented me from doing more intense exercises (life felt already way too hard). So I did those activities I liked, added some variety over time (walking off pavement, doing small running sessions as much and long as it was bringing me feeling of joy, adding weight in my backpack, doing walking meditation or photos on my way, learning to walk correctly, etc.). Over time I noticed that I became stronger - that was my victory - is gave me confidence and reassurance that I can change for the best, physical activity became welcomed. I still do not push myself [only for fun], but seek what gets me excited. Together with my body we select activities that we like and do only those, with joy and pleasure.
Mine is exercise daily walking 6 miles, weights 3 times, a week, dancing class twice a week, tretinoin at night, spf in the day, a good occlusive moisturiser and of course good nutrition..... Vegan I take sea buckthorn oil supplements, vit d and K also thinking of adding to my supplements resveratrol in powder form
I enjoy the message conveyed in this video. Taking care of our ONE and ONLY body that we are given for our lifetime is crucial not only for anti-aging but to keep our bodies working like well oiled machines. Health is one of the best gifts we can give ourselves ❤️🎁💝🛍
I have been lifting weights for years, moderate to heavyweights. I do conditioning 5 days a week and lift 4. I will be 65 in the fall. After watching this video, I do believe exercise, diet and good skin care has helped me. I have been told I look to be in my 50’s. You know what I will gladly take that compliment 😂
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But it's not something you buy which is why the industry doesn't talk about it.
Great video! I'm a medical student from Spain and have lots of anxiety and stress especially during exams season. I used to do yoga and really helped but stopped bc of lack of time. You have convinced me to come back to it and really prioritize getting some exercise everyday! Thank you Dr. Dray you are an inspiration ❤️

Hi Dr. Dray I’m 33 yrs old and definitely besides my skin care routine & drinking water , eating better , tremendously cutting out alcohol. Exercise was the best thing I’ve been doing for two months now .. my family & friend can see the difference automatically on my skin. Also I started taking collagen.
I’m about to turn 46 and things have changed tremendously for me since about 43-44. Skin, eating, exercising. So I’m trying to change my lifestyle. It is so hard, but this is great motivation. Thanks Dr. Dray, super helpful as always!💕
100% believe this! I lift weights because as we grow older, we often grow frail and are at risk for injuries. Fighting to keep my muscle as I age to stay strong and fit.
This is such a motivating video! The exercise that really helps me is adult ballet class. I have a wonderful teacher who always has new choreography even for routine barre work. Not only is it great physical exercise, following the complex sequences of movement is SO good for mental sharpness. I'm 68 and hope to never stop taking ballet!
I would love to find adult ballet classes where I live. I was a dancer and dance teacher in my youth. Marriage and family put an end to it. I later developed "occupational" scoliosis from sitting in an awkward position for long hours at work. That has really taken a toll as I've aged. Still, ballet is my first love and wish I could do it again.
@@notapplicable9970 I think adult ballet classes are becoming more common. I hope you are able to find one in your community. Maybe if you call some of the kid studios they could help you find one, or maybe you will plant the seed to some teachers to start thinking about starting one!
Celebrating my 40th year of aerobics and 25th year of running. I turned 65 in February and have been continually told I look a solid 10-15 years younger.... I will take it. 😊
Your best yet!!! Been lifting and doing cardio for several years and helping others do the same. I truly believe it is the "fountain of youth" in many ways! Thank You for sharing your knowledge!❤💯💥
My skin started to heal rapidly when I started hiking earlier this year. I am really lucky to have all the trails anyone could imagine where I live and I pushed myself to hike many miles everyday for about two months. It was amazing
Long,long time subscriber here, l think when the Dr Dray's TH-cam channel had about 34000 subscribers. l haven't ever heard anything that wasn't to the best of the DR's knowledge to be anything but honest, direct and truthful! Not only does the advice and knowledge she shares help save you money but it makes you feel better about yourself, it's a non-realistic expectation to look 18 forever. Just look your best at the age you are and take care of your skin and your health.😊🍁
I started running three years ago and now love it. My advice is to start easy. I started by walking 10,000 steps and then an occasional sprint and then walking and then trying to run without stopping for a mile. Now I can run 5 miles with very short walk breaks. I am older than most of you here so I have modest triumphs. Changed my life, lost two stone of fat and have so much more endurance for everyday life.
I have always had dry skin (face & body), but when I quit smoking 3 yrs ago, the skin on my face stopped being as insanely dry as it used to be. Now I just have what I would consider "normal" for those who have dry skin, if that makes sense. I've always been a big water drinker, but the smoking was clearly affecting my skin's hydration (& possibly affecting the barrier?) Now a dry skin friendly cleanser, hydrating serum & nice moisturizer works great, without me feeling like my skin is cracking throughout the day
Dear precious Friend, we are so Blessed to have you encouraging us to LIVE WITH A SMILE! This AM I listened to an interview on posture. Specifically on head weight as we look down or walk bent, head first leading. This pulls the muscles in our faces & neck down. (50% of pop. )So add POSTURE TO THS LIST OF NO COST BEAUTY TREATMENTS. PLEASE, do a ( several!)❤️) a video on posture in health care 🙏. Sending bouquets of Love to you & your Mother this Easter.
Yes! Been doing these things for 30 years. Excercise is so underated. But it's the best thing for brain and body. Eat healthy, move every day, adjust as you age, be wise about your choices. Sleep is king.
I totally agree! I have a dedicated skincare routine, but I recently got back into exercising and noticed a change in my skin right away. over the next few weeks my skin was brighter and I realized it was from working out, lol. Products help but man the difference exercise makes is amazing 😃
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But it's not something you buy which is why the industry doesn't talk about it.
I purchased a vibrating plate during the lockdowns and I am extremely pleased with the results. It is grueling the first week or so but now I’m hooked. I can hop on it any time I have the time and get an awesome workout. My flat behind is now a peach 🍑 😁
I can only agree, when I don't work out for a week or so due to work or life taking over, I notice it in my skin... it isn't as radiant and I get blemishes more easily; also I dont sleep as well so it adds up. I also agree the best exercise is the one you like so you keep doing it and there is so much free stuff on the internet, many walking, gentle workouts, body weight workouts etc. perfect video.
I felt a difference just from going on morning walks!! It helps me stay alert and energized for longer throughout the day. Of course I apply my sunscreen. I use my pasty white casty mineral sunscreen for this 😆
Excellent as always Dr Dray. I read a recent study that demonstrated how good walking is to alleviate depression. It really is a marvellous way of protecting mental and physical health and if it can be done in a green space so much the better.
Such an awesome video. I’ve been cycling for years and love it. I kicked up my game by eating lots of kale. For some reason it makes my skin glow. Go leafy greens!
I love walking. I walk 20-80 minutes every day unless it's raining because NO... there are no sidewalks here so I'd be slippin' in mud lol. I especially love walking when I'm anxious or stressed, helps work the energy through without destroying me.. also you know how people say they think of great ideas in the shower.. mine come from walking.
A very uplifting video! Totally agree with how adding exercise can snowball into healthier habits. As a runner myself I found this to be true when o stick to an exercise routine, for example, I don’t crave chips and sweets, etc.
Wow Dr dray you blow my mind with all your knowledge thank god your on utube how lucky are we thanks for sharing all your knowledge with us love from Australia
When I started working out, I wanted the biggest 'bang for my buck', so I started running. I hated it at first (I still don't LOVE it), but I do love how I feel after. I've never regretted a run after it was done. it's been a year and I can attest that it's done wonders for my skin & body!
Please do a video for mature skin, maybe for skin 65 and over. Our skin has already aged, please help us care for our skin and make our wrinkles look as good as possible.
Eventhough I know/agree eveything you says about that exercise and know the importance of it, but the reality is that I am just not motivated to do on a regular basis. I would get into a 2 wk period trying to do it regularly but the motivation never lasts. But during the pandemic, I find myself sitting infront of the TV every evening for 2~3 hours, and so I started just doing some simple stretching everyday while watching TV. Now it’s been for 1.5 years and i still kept it up and built up quite a routine. I have gotten rid of all my aches, and feel the best I have ever felt just from that one simple change. So, I agree the key is to start with one small thing that is easy to adapt (so not unpleasant) and build from that is important to long term success. I realize it is the things you do everyday that makes the biggest difference!
That's awesome! Maintaining a healthy daily routine is the hardest part for me. Sometimes when I'm extra lazy or depressed I try to at least do some couch cardio and it works😅
Thanks so much for keeping us grounded and reminding us that it's all about health! Since I have been following your channel and paring down my routine and expectations, my skin has been better than ever. You are a breath of fresh air and well needed in the community.
This is such a great topic! I very active and I’m constantly preaching the benefits of exercise. You have such a huge following and hopefully you can encourage those who hesitate in being active to start!
Whatever advise you give always makes sense. I don't often agree with some TH-camrs advices but yours always feel realistic and applicable with regular people like me. Thanks doc
I exercise, always have done keto on and off. Everyone that does keto face skin changes. Huge difference. I don't drink but maybe 2 to 3 times a year and not much. Don't smoke, sleep well. Everyone always says I age well , so I try my best. I've always been a sun lover. But I'm not baking in the sun like I use to at 56 it starts to take a toll on me. But sun is important for skin, just don't bake in it!!
Wow, this has been one of your best videos yet! I need to send this to my friends who don’t exercise at all. I try to tell them how important it is in so many ways for their body and skin but they don’t take my advice. They just don’t seem to care. Maybe your video will help them. Thank you!😊
Thank you ! I've always been mindful of my lifestyle and my health, it is just important for me and I don't care if people care less or do less. But people are pretty judgmental of me, they think I'm too serious about all of that, (the main argument being : "what's the point tiring yourself,you're going to wrinkle and die anyway, c'mon have a beer and skip the sunscreen "). And I just found that so frustrating...
I just love you. Those last comments you made about inflation, just show how much you care about helping people meet their skincare goals despite race, gender or economic status. Keep being a dermatologist for everyone
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But it's not something you buy which is why the industry doesn't talk about it.
I was doing everything but getting good sleep and excercise. Getting the basics not only improved my acne but my stress, happiness, and overall health.
Dr. Dray...Can you please make a video about the effects of sleeping on your side or stomach for the face? I cannot sleep on my back and want to know if this really affects symmetry or increase wrinkles. thank you!!!
Hi dr dray i am light skin and have been using the ordinary glycolic acid, azeliac acid and niacinmaide. It completely unclogged my pores. I cant remember when i started using witch hazel in the morning as a toner and glycolic at night. But i recently noticed i have light spots on my face and it seems lik around my lips had gotten darker and my pores has became back clogged. How do i get rid of the light spots? I stopped the witch hazel and glycolic acid for now.
Your videos are so informative and to the point. I fall into the sedentary group and I know I need to exercise more. My biggest thing with skin is we have well water that is terrible on my skin and hair.
Dr Dray--you are awesome!!! So love your philosophies, depth of knowledge, and phenomenal recommendations. You are making a huge difference for zillions of people!
i agree. during the pandemic i have had time to learn how to take care of my skin and which products to use. after two years using first tretinoin, then adding azelaic acid (a notable improvement), tranexemic acid and more recently a trial of hydroquinone spot treatment. My skin looks 25 years younger (my pre menopausal self). Despite these useful efforts, i can still see a big difference in my glow and overall skin appearance when i have regular aerobic exercise (esp high intensity intervals which gives me a good workout in a shorter time---still working full time so i need to be efficient.). i had to hold off strenuous exercise for 6 weeks post surgery recently, and saw and felt the difference. i come from a long lived family and want to stay healthy and ACTIVE to the end. it's a nice bonus that exercise helps my skin look great too.
I appreciate your videos so much and I wish I had found them sooner. The knowledge you share about skincare and general health has assisted me in my skincare routine . Also I think I’ll only buy those specific products that are targeted to my needs.
I have always loved exercise as a competitor gymnast in the past. I have Multiple Sclerosis but are lucky enough to be able to go on walks and I am a huge fan of yoga. I also don’t beat myself up if I dont feel good and can’t. I do have to choose some days to clean the house, do a physical project as my exercise. I eat very healthy and have a positive attitude which contributes to my body health. I am 57 and can see by my photo, I have aged well I think I have never had any procedures and use only natural soap and under eye she butter balm. I use Shea butter or jojoba oil on my body. Keeps my skin looking plump.
What a great video. You explain biology/ chemistry very well. I’m really starting to notice aging in my 50’s. After a run my skin does look better. Lower cortisol helps w/ many aging related issues. I’m so happy I found your channel. I wish you weren’t in Texas.
I like doing Pilates in the morning, it’s low intensity but it does make me sweat a little, and I notice that when I do low intensity workout, my skin is so good after a quick shower. I tend to do a hiit workout 2-3 times a week and walk somewhere between 30-60 mins once a week. It lower my stress level and my body feels great after that
Do collagen supplements help with reducing wrinkles and cellulite. If so what ingredient to look for in the labels or what do you recommend. Thanks love yr TH-cam channel.
I take a stimulant medication (for ADHD) that increases stress hormones. Do you have any tips for those of us who can’t avoid a spike in stress throughout the day? Love your content btw, you’re amazing Dr. Dray!☀️
Those meds didn't make me anxious, but they did make me evil!👹 I loved Wellbutrin. Unfortunately, I'm now allergic 😪 Good luck. Ashwaganda has helped me w/anxiety.
My tip is meditation and therapy. You can find guided meditation for free in TH-cam; although, for therapy you need a psychologist or a therapist; it is so worth to invest in your mental health.
my doc told me that the instant release stimulant types are more likely to give that kind of emotional fluctuation or increase anxiety. i'm not a doctor and i don't know what type of adhd prescription you have, but if you're experiencing MORE stress while on a treatment medication, i would consider bringing it up to your doctor so see if anything can be changed/adjusted to minimize that side effect. trying to function in the world while having adhd is hard enough, you shouldn't have to deal with stress spikes from something that's supposed to be helping you ! just a thought from a fellow adhd. wishing you the best
@ Zoe Roberts Believe it or not but try yoga breathing or regular yoga moves. I used to do yoga then started falling for fast and trendy cardio for faster results. Then I started feeling dizzy for various unknown reasons. I did yoga ( sun salutation) for 4 months and my 7-8 yrs of dizzy spells cond was under control. I saw neurologist or physical therapy etc but nothing helped but yoga did. Hope that helps
Thanks for this video on a very important topic! Especially emphasizing that exercise will benefit all parts of your total body. And improving lifestyle factors can not only benefit your skin, but it can prevent or delay serious health conditions, including heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer's. Who doesn't want that? And, in my mind, most importantly, staying active can keep you independent for longer. That means when you're older, you'll be more likely to be able to stay in your own home (instead of moving into assisted living), drive your own car (instead of being dependent on family or public transportation), and get up and go to the bathroom in the middle of the night on your own without asking for help from a family member or paid caregiver. These things didn't seem too important to me in my 20s, but watching my parents get older made me realize how important it will be. Getting and staying active isn't easy for someone who isn't, but starting small (even if it's only 10 minutes!) and building on it (increasing time and intensity), makes it a lot easier! And delaying Alzheimer's has been excellent motivation for me!
As a mom to young children, it is impossible for me to get enough sleep per day, since I have to get up during the nights for nursing. Do you have any suggestions for how to preserve collagen when it’s impossible to get enough sleep? Would love a video on tips for mothers! I’ve aged so much since the day I got pregnant.
Dr Gray you are right on about everything you said, if they follow your advice they will stay young, I know for a fact!!!!!! Thank you so much for being you & being honest, helping us saving money on important stuff we need to feel better about our self!!!!!
Sending lots of love and healing energy to you Maggie💞💞💞 So sorry for for your devastating loss😥 keep up with your exercise and of course watching the wonderful, caring and smart Dr. Dray! 💗
10,000 steps!? I'm getting like 4-5k max. Ooof. Thanks for this video. You gave me a reason to stay dedicated in staying active and control my stress. Thanks Dr. Dray 😁
You are young and pretty. I watch your good videos.For older ladies 60+ who never did any cosmetic procedures on their face and who don't want fillers or plastic surgery. Which is best to do first? RF Micro Needling Thread Lift or PRF Rich?
Thank you Dr Dray for trying to keep us healthy and young looking. So many people under severe stress now that far outweigh the dangers of the sun. Exercise is so important in our lives and makes me feel so much better. Going to the gym and getting on the treadmill is the best part of my day.
I was told from a retired derm that by using a retinoid or something in that family, that it can cause a build up in your skin over time which can be toxic. Can you please weigh in on this? I'm both interested and confused. She said because it's not water soluble it doesn't break down. Convo began when she asked me what i use since my skin is so clear and i told her i have been using retinol/differin gel for 2 + years
Great video! I’m 61 and have always done some sort of exercise, right now I’m doing Pure Barre 5 days a week and love it. You have changed my life and saved my skin, appreciate all you do.
I am 71 and always done some form of exercise. Right now I am doing the Pahla B Body Shaping series (on TH-cam) and yoga and love both. At this age I have more mobility, flexibility, and stamina than my friends who haven’t included exercise into their routines. Those that have, regardless of the type of exercise, are all doing better than those who haven’t. Just my observation of my circle of friends. Dr Dray has helped me with my skin, but being strong and able to live independently as long as I can is my ultimate goal.
Dr. Dray you're killing me with these truth bombs. I pretty much stopped exercising after moving to a new climate last summer (I used to walk 4 miles a day, now I rarely even do short walks). I know it's good for me but it's so cold and the forests are garbage compared to the Pacific Northwest where I used to live. I'm in medical school so the stress is real and you can see it on my face.
So true about exercise. I used to walk 4 miles daily and ride my bike 4 miles. I looked younger than I was. Unfortunately I was in a wreck and the TBI and other injuries sustained slowed my walking and stopped the biking. I was less regular with my yoga.. I aged a lot for many years. Finally I am getting over the wreck and come down with chronic EBV And chronic fatigue. One effect of the brain injury is I didn't remember what this tube of ointment was and tossed it. After watching your videos I now know it was Tretinonion 🤪 so 20 years later I am back on OTC retinal. Vit c and in the last year have been able to walk more and do more yoga 🧘♀️ I am feeling and looking better. And your videos helped. But I can't help but wonder how I might have looked without all the health issues from the wreck and my illness. Doing my best! I think of anti-aging as if you aren't aging you are dead. That wreck did almost kill me. I am happy to be still aging. Thanks to all your videos!!
This made me pretty sad because I can't exercise due to disability. My mitochondria don't function the way they should for my age level, so sometimes I can't get out of bed. I just got diagnosed last year so I'm still grieving all the things I can't do anymore. I used to be crazy active, but now I'm forced to be sedentary. My skin has aged a good bit over the last year, but at the same time as that I started watching Dr. Dray and James Welsh and Cassandra Bankson. Silver lining: I now take better care of my skin than I ever have and it shows.
1. Excercise
2. Healthy diet
3. Getting good sleep
4. Managing Stress
5. No Smoking
6. No Excess drinking
7. Avoid Sunbathe.(Use Sunscreens)
But in India air so filthy:(
We were meant to receive sunlight
Not sunburn
I wonder why people always say no smoking and then no excess drinking as if no drinking was not even a possible option and the best option. As if drinking alcohol was mandatory like drinking water...
Sleep ist important. If you dont sleep you cannot exercise
@@HereDiianas it’s because few people want to say “stop drinking alcohol.” Nobody likes to follow ALL the rules ALL the time.
I do zoomba twice a day, yoga, and weightlifting- it helps with depression and anxiety. It keeps me vertical following the loss of my only cild in 2020. So does watching Dr. Dray- that also brought me out of my crippling depression.
God bless you ❤️💪🏽

You are a strong lady! God Bless you!
Sorry for your loss, Blessings to you ♥️🌄🙏🌹

Wow! Awesome!
Exactly! ! She is awesome.
I'm currently 41 and of all the things that I've done to help with the aging process, skin & other areas of the body, inside and out, exercise was the one thing that improved things the most. It makes feel wonderful and look great at the same time. 💪🙂
I’m 65 and I believe my youthful appearance is because I started using products when I turned 40. You will look so good many years from now! 😊
I agree
@@dogie1070 Thank you! 😊 I started better skin care myself when I turned 40 as well 🙂 and it's thanks to Dr. Dray and her wonderful videos & valuable information.I can see the improvement in my skin for the better. I'm definitely embracing the aging process. 😊
@@dogie1070 e
good luck at 50
I turned 53 this year. My husband and I started walking every afternoon because it's too expensive to take the car anymore. We both feel great, sleep better and feel more energetic. I always remember to apply my sunscreen before!! Thank you Dr. Dray for your videos!!
Same here. Gas costs around 8 Dollars per gallon here in Gernany. So we switched to walking and riding bikes as often as possible.

As a 50+ female and personal trainer, I love to hear more reasons to exercise. I learned a lot from you on how it affects the skin as well. Thanks!
u can do facial exercises which directly affects your face
@@corsicanlulu those are ageing, not anti-ageing because that isn't how facial muscles work.
@@SueRosalie well it works for me for anti-aging, i have seen a huge difference in my face since doing facial exercises
@@corsicanlulu YES...been doing Facial Flex since 2005. Started facial yoga for the eyes especially last Winter. Great results from them all. :)

I’m 47 and lift weights 5/6 days a week. I’ve never felt better physically and mentally. Working out and eating healthy have made a big difference in my quality of life. I’m thrilled to know it helps my skin as well.
During the height of the pandemic, I was terrible about exercising. Now I try to walk for at least 45 mins a day. It’s hard getting back into it but it feels so much better than sitting around.
I'm in the same situation. I started to workout more often the past two weeks. Keep the good work 👏, I will try to remember that it's for better skin to keep me motivated 😉.
@Adora Tsang also you can try taking public transit if u like walking and being late
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But moderation is important.
You are preaching everything Miranda Esmonde-White has taught me. She is 73 yet she looks absolutely amazing, and she's quite fit. And it doesn't take beating ourselves up to stay to get there. Her workouts are very enjoyable to do daily and I've noticed quite a difference!
I just looked her up I came beleive she’s 73! Amazing x
I have been a couch potato and one day I started dancing. I could tell you first hand…. my age started to move backwards. In my 55 I feel and look better then I was 45-47 Dancing brings not only exercise but a positive emotions in all ways of life. Keep on moving keep on feeling young.
Props to the good Dr for the amount of time it must take to educate yourself to this level on so many subjects. Thank you! You’re a fountain of knowledge and you’re really helping so many folks 😊
Thanks for watching
I have been exercising avid since 21. Im 33 and have no fine lines! Also diligent with sunscreen and wearing sunglasses 😊
I loved this Dr Dray! You nailed it. All the expensive creams and procedures won’t make you young. I’ve exercised my whole life, everyday. I’m now 72 and look like I’m 50. My doctor called in two nurses on my last annual exam to have them guess my age. I have great muscle tone and no wrinkles at all. I also drink one tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil each morning and another at dinner time. I’m a size 2 still. I eat healthy foods. I see women who buy expensive products for their face, but are extremely overweight. I’m so happy you made this video. Hopefully it will motivate some. Thank you again…🙏 namaste.
Hi, which brand olive oil?
It must be EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL. VERY DARK IN COLOR AND IN DARK BOTTLES. Also, look up the benefits of doing this. You will be amazed and never go a day without it. Best wishes.
Drinking oil isn’t good for you.
@@alp2610 real extra virgin olive oil is very very good for the human body. Canola, soy, seed oils, not so much…
What type of exercises do you engage in n how long do you exercise every day
Just… wow… love her message of positivity on the topic of anti-aging. I’m a 40 + woman who is trying to age gracefully and as naturally as possible. This is great content for me ❤ thank you 🙏🏽
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But it's not something you buy which is why the industry doesn't talk about it.
Hi Dr Dray! I have Fibromyalgia & agoraphobia but I also have a 1.5 year old puppy. He’s been my motivating factor to walk daily, several times a day, sometimes just around the block. It’s a struggle, being alone, in the cold Wisconsin weather, walk up apartment, but he’s gotten me to socialize, we go to the dog park almost daily, and then I walk around the perimeter of the park. I love your channel! I always wear my SPF & I got all my cousins to start wearing in their teens! Thanks for everything you do!
Also wondering if you could possibly do a video on cranial facial hyperhydrosis?
That's amazing! Great progress! Dogs are angels with fur and I'm so thankful for my own little pack
Keep it up! Fibromyalgia is hard (agoraphobia too!) and what you are doing is soooo good for your pain levels and keeping your flares managed. Doggos are amazing at helping with the stressors of pain management (the depression that comes with it) and overall happiness. I am glad that you got your pup and that you are able to get out in the world with them. 💜
Good for you! Dogs are fabulous company. We call our our little ray of sunshine since she brings lightness to our life. ❤️🌈🐶🐾
My mom has fibromyalgia too , glad to see how others live with it too to make it better
I only started exercising when I found this channel in the pandemic. There was a video where you mentioned blogilates, I checked her out, and I've been consistent every since. (That's also when I started wearing sunscreen.) Thanks, Dr. D.
I love blogilates and have been doing it for 6 months now. I have noticed so many benefits.
As a desk job untrained person I started (being older than 30) by going walking. I did it for the first couple of years gradually getting my body into tonus. Chronic depression prevented me from doing more intense exercises (life felt already way too hard). So I did those activities I liked, added some variety over time (walking off pavement, doing small running sessions as much and long as it was bringing me feeling of joy, adding weight in my backpack, doing walking meditation or photos on my way, learning to walk correctly, etc.). Over time I noticed that I became stronger - that was my victory - is gave me confidence and reassurance that I can change for the best, physical activity became welcomed. I still do not push myself [only for fun], but seek what gets me excited. Together with my body we select activities that we like and do only those, with joy and pleasure.
Mine is exercise daily walking 6 miles, weights 3 times, a week, dancing class twice a week, tretinoin at night, spf in the day, a good occlusive moisturiser and of course good nutrition..... Vegan I take sea buckthorn oil supplements, vit d and K also thinking of adding to my supplements resveratrol in powder form
Wonderful!
@@raebsen Man u must be glowing!!~
I enjoy the message conveyed in this video. Taking care of our ONE and ONLY body that we are given for our lifetime is crucial not only for anti-aging but to keep our bodies working like well oiled machines. Health is one of the best gifts we can give ourselves ❤️🎁💝🛍
If this chick knows so much about skin care and anti aging why has she aged 25 years in 5
Lmao
Go look at her old videos
Veganism = death sentence
I have been lifting weights for years, moderate to heavyweights. I do conditioning 5 days a week and lift 4. I will be 65 in the fall. After watching this video, I do believe exercise, diet and good skin care has helped me. I have been told I look to be in my 50’s. You know what I will gladly take that compliment 😂
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But it's not something you buy which is why the industry doesn't talk about it.
Great video! I'm a medical student from Spain and have lots of anxiety and stress especially during exams season. I used to do yoga and really helped but stopped bc of lack of time. You have convinced me to come back to it and really prioritize getting some exercise everyday! Thank you Dr. Dray you are an inspiration ❤️
Check the Podcast hubermanlab by Stanford Professor Dr Andrew Huberman for more Tipps against anxiety, depression, brain health, optimal learning and more
Take ashwaganda and magnesium glycine.. and no more anxiety and stress
Hi Dr. Dray I’m 33 yrs old and definitely besides my skin care routine & drinking water , eating better , tremendously cutting out alcohol. Exercise was the best thing I’ve been doing for two months now .. my family & friend can see the difference automatically on my skin. Also I started taking collagen.
I’m about to turn 46 and things have changed tremendously for me since about 43-44. Skin, eating, exercising. So I’m trying to change my lifestyle. It is so hard, but this is great motivation. Thanks Dr. Dray, super helpful as always!💕
Do whatever you want just don’t go vegan
Go look at this chicks old videos
She has aged 20 years in 5 from malnourishment as a result of veganism
AMEN GOD IS GOOD REPENT DIOS LOS AMA GOD IS COMING DIOS VIENE GOD LOVES YOU DIOS LOS AMA HAVE YOU BROKEN THE 10 COMMANDMENTS SEEK THE LORD IT IS FATA
That was a turning point for me. Takes a bit more work to stay healthy and looking really good for your age.
@@bobdole7292 Exactly!!! 😳
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But moderation is important.
100% believe this! I lift weights because as we grow older, we often grow frail and are at risk for injuries. Fighting to keep my muscle as I age to stay strong and fit.
This is such a motivating video! The exercise that really helps me is adult ballet class. I have a wonderful teacher who always has new choreography even for routine barre work. Not only is it great physical exercise, following the complex sequences of movement is SO good for mental sharpness. I'm 68 and hope to never stop taking ballet!
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But moderation is important.
I would love to find adult ballet classes where I live. I was a dancer and dance teacher in my youth. Marriage and family put an end to it. I later developed "occupational" scoliosis from sitting in an awkward position for long hours at work. That has really taken a toll as I've aged. Still, ballet is my first love and wish I could do it again.
@@notapplicable9970 I think adult ballet classes are becoming more common. I hope you are able to find one in your community. Maybe if you call some of the kid studios they could help you find one, or maybe you will plant the seed to some teachers to start thinking about starting one!
Celebrating my 40th year of aerobics and 25th year of running. I turned 65 in February and have been continually told I look a solid 10-15 years younger.... I will take it. 😊
I love the last part of the video we’re you mention lifestyle changes to make and you say “NOT SMOKING” so forcefully! Amen sister!
Your best yet!!! Been lifting and doing cardio for several years and helping others do the same. I truly believe it is the "fountain of youth" in many ways! Thank You for sharing your knowledge!❤💯💥
My skin started to heal rapidly when I started hiking earlier this year. I am really lucky to have all the trails anyone could imagine where I live and I pushed myself to hike many miles everyday for about two months. It was amazing
Long,long time subscriber here, l think when the Dr Dray's TH-cam channel had about 34000 subscribers. l haven't ever heard anything that wasn't to the best of the DR's knowledge to be anything but honest, direct and truthful! Not only does the advice and knowledge she shares help save you money but it makes you feel better about yourself, it's a non-realistic expectation to look 18 forever. Just look your best at the age you are and take care of your skin and your health.😊🍁
I started running three years ago and now love it. My advice is to start easy. I started by walking 10,000 steps and then an occasional sprint and then walking and then trying to run without stopping for a mile. Now I can run 5 miles with very short walk breaks. I am older than most of you here so I have modest triumphs. Changed my life, lost two stone of fat and have so much more endurance for everyday life.
I have always had dry skin (face & body), but when I quit smoking 3 yrs ago, the skin on my face stopped being as insanely dry as it used to be. Now I just have what I would consider "normal" for those who have dry skin, if that makes sense. I've always been a big water drinker, but the smoking was clearly affecting my skin's hydration (& possibly affecting the barrier?)
Now a dry skin friendly cleanser, hydrating serum & nice moisturizer works great, without me feeling like my skin is cracking throughout the day
Dear precious Friend, we are so Blessed to have you encouraging us to LIVE WITH A SMILE! This AM I listened to an interview on posture. Specifically on head weight as we look down or walk bent, head first leading. This pulls the muscles in our faces & neck down. (50% of pop. )So add POSTURE TO THS LIST OF NO COST BEAUTY TREATMENTS. PLEASE, do a ( several!)❤️) a video on posture in health care 🙏. Sending bouquets of Love to you & your Mother this Easter.
Yes! Been doing these things for 30 years. Excercise is so underated. But it's the best thing for brain and body. Eat healthy, move every day, adjust as you age, be wise about your choices. Sleep is king.
I totally agree! I have a dedicated skincare routine, but I recently got back into exercising and noticed a change in my skin right away. over the next few weeks my skin was brighter and I realized it was from working out, lol. Products help but man the difference exercise makes is amazing 😃
Thank you for duplication of Dr.'s
Advice!!😊😊
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But it's not something you buy which is why the industry doesn't talk about it.
I purchased a vibrating plate during the lockdowns and I am extremely pleased with the results. It is grueling the first week or so but now I’m hooked. I can hop on it any time I have the time and get an awesome workout. My flat behind is now a peach 🍑 😁
I'm starting a healthy cleaning regimen. I have started exercising & eating better. I just had dermaplanning done. It was a great experience.
I can only agree, when I don't work out for a week or so due to work or life taking over, I notice it in my skin... it isn't as radiant and I get blemishes more easily; also I dont sleep as well so it adds up. I also agree the best exercise is the one you like so you keep doing it and there is so much free stuff on the internet, many walking, gentle workouts, body weight workouts etc. perfect video.
I felt a difference just from going on morning walks!! It helps me stay alert and energized for longer throughout the day. Of course I apply my sunscreen. I use my pasty white casty mineral sunscreen for this 😆
I’ve coached classes at the gym for thirty years. I’ve said exercise is the fountain of youth!
Excellent as always Dr Dray. I read a recent study that demonstrated how good walking is to alleviate depression. It really is a marvellous way of protecting mental and physical health and if it can be done in a green space so much the better.
Such an awesome video. I’ve been cycling for years and love it. I kicked up my game by eating lots of kale. For some reason it makes my skin glow. Go leafy greens!
I love walking. I walk 20-80 minutes every day unless it's raining because NO... there are no sidewalks here so I'd be slippin' in mud lol. I especially love walking when I'm anxious or stressed, helps work the energy through without destroying me.. also you know how people say they think of great ideas in the shower.. mine come from walking.
Walking is great exercise
Me too I walk every day and it's really beneficial
@@michelles2299 I look forward to it!
I'm 54 and exercise is so important! Thank you :)
you're gorgeous Holly!
A very uplifting video! Totally agree with how adding exercise can snowball into healthier habits. As a runner myself I found this to be true when o stick to an exercise routine, for example, I don’t crave chips and sweets, etc.
Wow Dr dray you blow my mind with all your knowledge thank god your on utube how lucky are we thanks for sharing all your knowledge with us love from Australia
When I started working out, I wanted the biggest 'bang for my buck', so I started running. I hated it at first (I still don't LOVE it), but I do love how I feel after. I've never regretted a run after it was done. it's been a year and I can attest that it's done wonders for my skin & body!
Please do a video for mature skin, maybe for skin 65 and over. Our skin has already aged, please help us care for our skin and make our wrinkles look as good as possible.
Dr Dray, yes please! ❤
Eventhough I know/agree eveything you says about that exercise and know the importance of it, but the reality is that I am just not motivated to do on a regular basis. I would get into a 2 wk period trying to do it regularly but the motivation never lasts. But during the pandemic, I find myself sitting infront of the TV every evening for 2~3 hours, and so I started just doing some simple stretching everyday while watching TV. Now it’s been for 1.5 years and i still kept it up and built up quite a routine. I have gotten rid of all my aches, and feel the best I have ever felt just from that one simple change. So, I agree the key is to start with one small thing that is easy to adapt (so not unpleasant) and build from that is important to long term success. I realize it is the things you do everyday that makes the biggest difference!
That's awesome! Maintaining a healthy daily routine is the hardest part for me. Sometimes when I'm extra lazy or depressed I try to at least do some couch cardio and it works😅
@@chai_lattes thats a great start!
Thanks so much for keeping us grounded and reminding us that it's all about health! Since I have been following your channel and paring down my routine and expectations, my skin has been better than ever. You are a breath of fresh air and well needed in the community.
This is such a great topic! I very active and I’m constantly preaching the benefits of exercise. You have such a huge following and hopefully you can encourage those who hesitate in being active to start!
I started kayaking. It’s a lot of work and I don’t realize because it’s so fun!!!
Whatever advise you give always makes sense. I don't often agree with some TH-camrs advices but yours always feel realistic and applicable with regular people like me. Thanks doc
I exercise, always have done keto on and off. Everyone that does keto face skin changes. Huge difference. I don't drink but maybe 2 to 3 times a year and not much. Don't smoke, sleep well. Everyone always says I age well , so I try my best. I've always been a sun lover. But I'm not baking in the sun like I use to at 56 it starts to take a toll on me. But sun is important for skin, just don't bake in it!!
Wow, this has been one of your best videos yet! I need to send this to my friends who don’t exercise at all. I try to tell them how important it is in so many ways for their body and skin but they don’t take my advice. They just don’t seem to care. Maybe your video will help them. Thank you!😊
Absolutely true everytime i train i feel better and my skin looks so much more radiant 🌸🌸🌸
Thank you ! I've always been mindful of my lifestyle and my health, it is just important for me and I don't care if people care less or do less. But people are pretty judgmental of me, they think I'm too serious about all of that, (the main argument being : "what's the point tiring yourself,you're going to wrinkle and die anyway, c'mon have a beer and skip the sunscreen "). And I just found that so frustrating...
Wow, you are being your own best doctor and advocate, good for you!
I just love you. Those last comments you made about inflation, just show how much you care about helping people meet their skincare goals despite race, gender or economic status. Keep being a dermatologist for everyone
Yes! Exercise is actually one of the most important variables for good skin. But it's not something you buy which is why the industry doesn't talk about it.
Watching Dr. Dray as I lift weights! Love you and watch you every day. Thanks for your time and information 💜
I was doing everything but getting good sleep and excercise. Getting the basics not only improved my acne but my stress, happiness, and overall health.
Dr. Dray...Can you please make a video about the effects of sleeping on your side or stomach for the face? I cannot sleep on my back and want to know if this really affects symmetry or increase wrinkles. thank you!!!
Insulin resistance can age you as well.
Hi dr dray i am light skin and have been using the ordinary glycolic acid, azeliac acid and niacinmaide. It completely unclogged my pores. I cant remember when i started using witch hazel in the morning as a toner and glycolic at night. But i recently noticed i have light spots on my face and it seems lik around my lips had gotten darker and my pores has became back clogged. How do i get rid of the light spots? I stopped the witch hazel and glycolic acid for now.
Your videos are so informative and to the point. I fall into the sedentary group and I know I need to exercise more. My biggest thing with skin is we have well water that is terrible on my skin and hair.
Used exercise 5 days a week at 57. Until I got sick. I loved it !
Dr Dray--you are awesome!!! So love your philosophies, depth of knowledge, and phenomenal recommendations. You are making a huge difference for zillions of people!
i agree. during the pandemic i have had time to learn how to take care of my skin and which products to use. after two years using first tretinoin, then adding azelaic acid (a notable improvement), tranexemic acid and more recently a trial of hydroquinone spot treatment. My skin looks 25 years younger (my pre menopausal self). Despite these useful efforts, i can still see a big difference in my glow and overall skin appearance when i have regular aerobic exercise (esp high intensity intervals which gives me a good workout in a shorter time---still working full time so i need to be efficient.). i had to hold off strenuous exercise for 6 weeks post surgery recently, and saw and felt the difference. i come from a long lived family and want to stay healthy and ACTIVE to the end. it's a nice bonus that exercise helps my skin look great too.
I appreciate your videos so much and I wish I had found them sooner. The knowledge you share about skincare and general health has assisted me in my skincare routine . Also I think I’ll only buy those specific products that are targeted to my needs.
I have always loved exercise as a competitor gymnast in the past. I have Multiple Sclerosis but are lucky enough to be able to go on walks and I am a huge fan of yoga. I also don’t beat myself up if I dont feel good and can’t. I do have to choose some days to clean the house, do a physical project as my exercise. I eat very healthy and have a positive attitude which contributes to my body health.
I am 57 and can see by my photo, I have aged well I think I have never had any procedures and use only natural soap and under eye she butter balm. I use Shea butter or jojoba oil on my body. Keeps my skin looking plump.
What a wonderful speech!!! Thanks a lot!! ❤️❤️❤️
What a great video. You explain biology/ chemistry very well. I’m really starting to notice aging in my 50’s. After a run my skin does look better. Lower cortisol helps w/ many aging related issues. I’m so happy I found your channel. I wish you weren’t in Texas.
I like doing Pilates in the morning, it’s low intensity but it does make me sweat a little, and I notice that when I do low intensity workout, my skin is so good after a quick shower. I tend to do a hiit workout 2-3 times a week and walk somewhere between 30-60 mins once a week. It lower my stress level and my body feels great after that
I've been exercising since I was in high school and I appreciate your video
Do collagen supplements help with reducing wrinkles and cellulite. If so what ingredient to look for in the labels or what do you recommend. Thanks love yr TH-cam channel.
I take a stimulant medication (for ADHD) that increases stress hormones. Do you have any tips for those of us who can’t avoid a spike in stress throughout the day? Love your content btw, you’re amazing Dr. Dray!☀️
Those meds didn't make me anxious, but they did make me evil!👹 I loved Wellbutrin. Unfortunately, I'm now allergic 😪
Good luck. Ashwaganda has helped me w/anxiety.
My tip is meditation and therapy. You can find guided meditation for free in TH-cam; although, for therapy you need a psychologist or a therapist; it is so worth to invest in your mental health.
my doc told me that the instant release stimulant types are more likely to give that kind of emotional fluctuation or increase anxiety. i'm not a doctor and i don't know what type of adhd prescription you have, but if you're experiencing MORE stress while on a treatment medication, i would consider bringing it up to your doctor so see if anything can be changed/adjusted to minimize that side effect. trying to function in the world while having adhd is hard enough, you shouldn't have to deal with stress spikes from something that's supposed to be helping you ! just a thought from a fellow adhd. wishing you the best
@ Zoe Roberts
Believe it or not but try yoga breathing or regular yoga moves. I used to do yoga then started falling for fast and trendy cardio for faster results. Then I started feeling dizzy for various unknown reasons. I did yoga ( sun salutation) for 4 months and my 7-8 yrs of dizzy spells cond was under control. I saw neurologist or physical therapy etc but nothing helped but yoga did. Hope that helps
CBD oil. I like Haleigh's Hope CBD
Thanks for this video on a very important topic! Especially emphasizing that exercise will benefit all parts of your total body. And improving lifestyle factors can not only benefit your skin, but it can prevent or delay serious health conditions, including heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer's. Who doesn't want that? And, in my mind, most importantly, staying active can keep you independent for longer. That means when you're older, you'll be more likely to be able to stay in your own home (instead of moving into assisted living), drive your own car (instead of being dependent on family or public transportation), and get up and go to the bathroom in the middle of the night on your own without asking for help from a family member or paid caregiver. These things didn't seem too important to me in my 20s, but watching my parents get older made me realize how important it will be. Getting and staying active isn't easy for someone who isn't, but starting small (even if it's only 10 minutes!) and building on it (increasing time and intensity), makes it a lot easier! And delaying Alzheimer's has been excellent motivation for me!
You're so right. Thank you for the motivation. ❤❤❤
As a mom to young children, it is impossible for me to get enough sleep per day, since I have to get up during the nights for nursing. Do you have any suggestions for how to preserve collagen when it’s impossible to get enough sleep? Would love a video on tips for mothers! I’ve aged so much since the day I got pregnant.
I know Dr.Dray has mentioned in a previous video to eat lots of collagen rich foods and to limit sugar to preserve and strengthen collagen.
Just came across this video and I’m so glad I did. Thanks Dr Dray! 😊
Exercise, sleep, healthy diet, and sunscreen
Dr Gray you are right on about everything you said, if they follow your advice they will stay young, I know for a fact!!!!!! Thank you so much for being you & being honest, helping us saving money on important stuff we need to feel better about our self!!!!!
I’m on it! Thank god for the wake-up call
Sending lots of love and healing energy to you Maggie💞💞💞 So sorry for for your devastating loss😥 keep up with your exercise and of course watching the wonderful, caring and smart Dr. Dray! 💗
Excellent advise. Exercise is the fountain of youth.
10,000 steps!? I'm getting like 4-5k max. Ooof. Thanks for this video. You gave me a reason to stay dedicated in staying active and control my stress. Thanks Dr. Dray 😁
You are young and pretty. I watch your good videos.For older ladies 60+ who never did any cosmetic procedures on their face and who don't want fillers or plastic surgery.
Which is best to do first? RF Micro Needling
Thread Lift or PRF Rich?
Thank you Dr Dray for trying to keep us healthy and young looking. So many people under severe stress now that far outweigh the dangers of the sun. Exercise is so important in our lives and makes me feel so much better. Going to the gym and getting on the treadmill is the best part of my day.
I looooove you, I can't stop watching your videos! So informative. I love how realistic you are about beauty and aging. Thanks so much!
I was told from a retired derm that by using a retinoid or something in that family, that it can cause a build up in your skin over time which can be toxic. Can you please weigh in on this? I'm both interested and confused. She said because it's not water soluble it doesn't break down. Convo began when she asked me what i use since my skin is so clear and i told her i have been using retinol/differin gel for 2 + years
Great video! I’m 61 and have always done some sort of exercise, right now I’m doing Pure Barre 5 days a week and love it. You have changed my life and saved my skin, appreciate all you do.
I am 71 and always done some form of exercise. Right now I am doing the Pahla B Body Shaping series (on TH-cam) and yoga and love both. At this age I have more mobility, flexibility, and stamina than my friends who haven’t included exercise into their routines. Those that have, regardless of the type of exercise, are all doing better than those who haven’t. Just my observation of my circle of friends. Dr Dray has helped me with my skin, but being strong and able to live independently as long as I can is my ultimate goal.
Dr. Dray you're killing me with these truth bombs. I pretty much stopped exercising after moving to a new climate last summer (I used to walk 4 miles a day, now I rarely even do short walks). I know it's good for me but it's so cold and the forests are garbage compared to the Pacific Northwest where I used to live. I'm in medical school so the stress is real and you can see it on my face.
I hated running but got into cycling and that works for me; it’s about finding what you will stick with
So true about exercise. I used to walk 4 miles daily and ride my bike 4 miles. I looked younger than I was. Unfortunately I was in a wreck and the TBI and other injuries sustained slowed my walking and stopped the biking. I was less regular with my yoga.. I aged a lot for many years. Finally I am getting over the wreck and come down with chronic EBV
And chronic fatigue. One effect of the brain injury is I didn't remember what this tube of ointment was and tossed it. After watching your videos I now know it was Tretinonion 🤪 so 20 years later I am back on OTC retinal. Vit c and in the last year have been able to walk more and do more yoga 🧘♀️
I am feeling and looking better. And your videos helped. But I can't help but wonder how I might have looked without all the health issues from the wreck and my illness. Doing my best!
I think of anti-aging as if you aren't aging you are dead. That wreck did almost kill me. I am happy to be still aging. Thanks to all your videos!!
Congrats on 155K subscribers & 200K views on this video alone. Thank you for everything!
Thanks so much for all your awesome videos. I have learned so much watching you. I’m loving TH-cam get so much voluble information!! Thanks again😁
I'm slightly motivated but not motivated enough and I don't know why. I still hope that I get more exercise than I think just in doing my daily job.
This made me pretty sad because I can't exercise due to disability. My mitochondria don't function the way they should for my age level, so sometimes I can't get out of bed. I just got diagnosed last year so I'm still grieving all the things I can't do anymore. I used to be crazy active, but now I'm forced to be sedentary. My skin has aged a good bit over the last year, but at the same time as that I started watching Dr. Dray and James Welsh and Cassandra Bankson. Silver lining: I now take better care of my skin than I ever have and it shows.
Hope you're doing better today ❤
@@CarasGaladhon much, thank you! I've learned to live with it and am fairly active with gardening when I'm able.
