Things that causes breasts to sag
By avoiding some everyday habits, you can do your
part in keeping breasts young-looking for as long as
possible.
WEARING A BRA THAT DOESNT FIT
This habit is more common that one would think.
Most bras are made of flexible materials, and over
time with normal wear, they will eventually stretch
out. But the bra’s primary purpose is to give support.
Wearing an ill-fitting bra can contribute to breast
sagging as the more your breast bounce around, the
more stressed breast skin and collagen become. You
need to figure out what your bra size is, so that the
cups adequately hold your breasts. About 80% of
women are wearing a bra that is not their perfect fit,
so make sure you get measured, which can be easily
done in a lingerie shop.
SMOKING
Smoking makes the skin lose its natural elasticity,
which causes the breasts to drop. It reduces the
amount of collagen in the skin and worsens the
blood circulation. This makes the skin become
weaker and age faster.
Smoking causes a lot of other health issues and you
can see for yourself what happens to your lungs
if you smoke only 60 cigarettes. If you are a smoker,

CHANGING DIET
Having a balanced diet is very important to the
health of your breasts. Yo-yo dieting that makes you
lose vast amounts of weight quickly, only to put it
back on later, puts a strain on your skin tissue.
Repeatedly losing and gaining weight has been
shown to make your breasts drop. The skin tissue
stretches to accommodate the weight gain, but it
can’t indefinitely snap back into place when the
weight comes back off again. So try to maintain a
steady weight or a proper nutrition in a healthy,
sustainable way.
NOT PROTECTING YOURSELF FROM THE SUN
Breasts, and cleavage in particular, can get burnt
easily and they absorb their share of the sun’s UV
rays. This can damage the skin, make it wrinkle and
age prematurely. Protect yourself from the sun and
don’t over-expose your skin. Also, sunscreens are
not the magic solution and I have written before
about thepotential chemical dangers that lure in
some sunscreens, especially the high-factor ones.
NOT EXERCISING AND BAD POSTURE
It’s important to exercise and keep your chest
muscles strong. However, some back-and-forth
repetitive motions (like in running) can make your
breasts go saggy, as they breakdown breast
collagen. Make sure you support your breasts during
a high-impact exercise session and pay attention to
your posture throughout the day. Walk straight and
make your breasts stand up proudly.
