Bags under the eyes – what are they?

The bags under the eyes is it mild swelling under the eyes which usually appears with age. They occur when weakened and sagging skin under the eye loosens to form a pouch. The fat pads under the eyes slide together to fill the resulting space. Excess water in the body can also accumulate there, making the lower eyelids look even more swollen and swollen. Dark circles and discolored skin under the eyes make bags under the eyes more visible.

Unattractive eye bags are primarily a cosmetic issue and are usually harmless. But sometimes they can be a sign of a serious illness. Most of the bags under the eyes are more noticeable in the morning, when the accumulated water in the body has all night to flow into this area.

The causes of bags under the eyes

Bags under the eyes are sometimes independent of us. They appear because we inherit them in our genes. More often, however, they are the result of aging, because with age the tension in the eye’s circular muscle becomes weaker and the amount of collagen and elastin. There are also more prosaic reasons for the occurrence of bags under the eyes. These include an inappropriate, unsanitary lifestyle. In short, it is about e.g. too few hours of sleep, tiredness, incorrect diet with deficiencies of vitamin K and iron (e.g. high in salt), abuse of cigarettes and alcohol, as well as too intensive and too frequent use of sunbathing and solarium. In addition, bags under the eyes are also the result of water retention in the body. It, on the other hand, results from diseases of the heart, circulatory system, kidneys as well as allergies, anemia, diabetes and hypothyroidism.

Drinking plenty of water and applying a cold compress (e.g. ice cubes wrapped in a towel) can help you quickly reduce eye bags.

1. take care of the right amount of sleep (6 to 8 hours of sleep a day),

3. give up stimulants (cigarettes, alcohol),

As the body ages, the muscles and tissues that support the eyelid weaken. This means that the skin around the eyes becomes saggy. Increasing the intake of vitamin C may result in greater absorption of hyaluronic acid in the skin. This acid occurs naturally in the body, but its amount decreases with age. Foods rich in vitamin C and amino acids can help produce collagen and increase the levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin. Here is an example of foods that are rich in vitamin C:

1. citrus fruits, mainly oranges,
2. Red pepper,
3. kale,
4. Brussels sprouts,
5. broccoli
6. strawberries.
