Television presenter Davina McCall on why she stopped hardcore workouts and decided to get braces at 50<\/span><\/p>\n FITNESS<\/span><\/p>\n If you want to live longer, be healthy and stay as useful as possible, exercise is page one of the manual. As I’m now 55, I’ve changed how I work out. I used to love a class where an instructor screams at you, but then I started getting injuries. Now I do strength training, including yoga and stretching.<\/p>\n I don’t need big weights \u2013 my own body weight is enough. It’s important because building good-quality muscle gets harder as you get older, while bones start losing density around the perimenopause and menopause.<\/p>\n But stronger bones and muscles will stop me falling and help me stay well for longer. Strength training keeps my mind young, too. And it’s free!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Television presenter Davina McCall on why she stopped hardcore workouts and decided to get braces at 50<\/p>\n MENOPAUSE<\/span><\/p>\n I’ve changed so much in perimenopause, and I look after myself by staying active and with nutrition. I used to think I ate enough protein as I had three big meals a day, but not so. Now I have a protein shake to ensure I can maintain muscle tone.<\/p>\n Shakes can look bland and you feel you’ll look like a bodybuilder, but not Foodspring’s, so I’ve collaborated with them to encourage more women to get enough protein. My after-dinner treat is to put the Protein + Relax (\u00a329.99, foodspring.co.uk) in hot milk, like a granny. It helps me wind down.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Davina’s ‘after-dinner treat; is to put the Protein + Relax (\u00a329.99, foodspring.co.uk) in hot milk ‘like a granny’<\/p>\n MAKE-UP<\/span><\/p>\n I started wearing a little bit of make-up every day in my 40s. If I’m in a rush I’ll just curl my eyelashes, then put on mascara and lipstick. Tubing mascara has changed my life. I never have panda eyes and it comes off with water.<\/p>\n My make-up artist taught me that unless you’re doing a full smoky eye, don’t put any liner on your lower lash line. It pulls your eyes down and is very aging.<\/p>\n YSL Touche Eclat (\u00a327, boots.com) works miracles. It’s basically a highlighter pen, but don’t go too heavy around your wrinkles.<\/p>\n I don’t use liquid eyeliners because I have looser skin on my lids now. Pencil is a lot more forgiving; you can smudge it in for a smokier look. I get my eyebrows tattooed by Miriam (@limitlessPMU).<\/p>\n When it comes to perfume I like Molecule 01 (\u00a395, libertylondon.com) \u2013 a friend of mine gave it to me and told me not to tell anybody. People have stopped me to ask what it is.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Molecule 01 (\u00a395, libertylondon.com) is Davina’s go-to perfume and she says people have stopped her to ask her what she’s got on<\/p>\n <\/p>\n YSL Touche Eclat (\u00a327, boots.com) ‘works miracles’, says Davina, and doesn’t ‘go too heavy’ around wrinkles<\/p>\n FOOD\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Back in the days of fad diets, I tried Atkins. I couldn’t believe how much weight I’d lost in two weeks \u2013 it was amazing. Then I put it all back on straightaway. Later I started training with a former Marine and former gymnast, who fostered a better relationship between me and food.<\/p>\n I will have that piece of cake \u2013 just not every day. I don’t believe in diets. I used to be very anti-sugar, but now I eat it every so often. I did a personalised nutrition test with the free Zoe app and found that, while I don’t process sugar well, I do process fat well, so now I up that in my diet.<\/p>\n I also found out that intermittent fasting works for me \u2013 I only did it because it was a challenge, but after six weeks I didn’t want to stop. I do 14 hours:\u00a0I finish my dinner before 8pm and have my breakfast after 10am. My energy is so much better, I don’t wake up bloated and, at this stage of my life, it suits me very well.<\/p>\n TWEAKMENTS<\/span><\/p>\n Teeth are important. It’s funny, I looked after my kids’ teeth \u2013 got braces for them and everything \u2013 but not for myself. So I had my teeth straightened at 50. And it was the best thing I have ever done.<\/p>\n
