If you think you’re looking a teeny bit old today, you might want to head straight to the office fruit basket to try and ward off some of the main ageing effects.

Office fruitapples contain a compound called Procyanidin B-2, which slows the usual ageing-related woes such as wrinkles and hair loss.

According to a feature in the Sun, the best way to prevent ageing is to cut back on obvious sugar sources, such as cakes and fizzy drinks, which lead to a loss of flexibility and elasticity in the collagen in the skin.

Office fruit fans need not worry too much, however, as fructose – the sugar present in fruit – isn’t bad for you at all as it’s digested very slowly and doesn’t give the same spike in blood sugar levels after consumption that other variants do.

Vitamin C is also great for boosting collagen levels which is essential for keeping skin strong and wrinkle-free, according to the news provider.

Eating clementines and satsumas from the office fruit delivery is a fantastic way to get some more vitamin C in your diet as they’re extremely rich in the nutrient.
