Halle Berry avoids sugar to slow down the ageing process.
The 58-year-old actress, who was diagnosed with diabetes in her late teens, claims that avoiding sugar has improved her complexion over the years.
She told E! News: “It’s hard work and you have to work at it. It’s a lifestyle. I think being diagnosed with diabetes when I was 19 years old has kept me away from the number one ageing substance which is sugar.”
The Oscar-winning star also noted that getting enough sleep can help her maintain a youthful appearance.
She added: “I think it’s managing to get enough rest, prioritizing your sleep and your health and your wellbeing is important. And it’s hard to do that sometimes.”
Meanwhile, the ‘Union’ actress celebrated her 58th birthday on Wednesday, sharing a natural selfie while reflecting on her life and thanking fans for their support throughout the years.
At the same time, she stated that she has learnt that “less is more” now that she has reached this point in her life.
She captioned the post on Instagram: “At 58, I’ve learned that less is more! Thank you all for riding with me all these years!”
Her boyfriend Van Hunt shared a sweet post in honour of Halle’s big day as he commented on the way their relationship continues to blossom.
He wrote on his own page: “Happy birthday to you. no one sees the commitment. the wear and tear. but I am proud to say I do — as our love goes and grows. (sic)”.
