FIT AFTER 50
By Rossella PrunetiFar too many baby-boomers approaching the senior status fail to take advantage of recent discoveries about the aging process.
..But you can not only stretch your lifespan, you can change and enrich your 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and beyond! Read on.With the shifting health paradigm away from a disease-oriented approach towards a wellness-based model, there are more and more viable alternatives to nursing homes and health care that focuses on treatment of full-blown states of disease.
Anti-aging approach arrives as the new health care paradigm and the leading frontier of health care and fitness in the twenty-first century.The approach to anti-aging is truly multi-disciplinary: advances in the fields of biochemistry, biology, and physiology, the field is enhanced by contributions from mind/body medicine, sports medicine, molecular genetics, and emerging medical technologies - for instance, cloning.Thus, your efforts on feeling, looking, and staying young must be multi-faceted and covers the entire spectrum of anti-aging techniques in the following areas:1. EXERCISEJust 1.
5-million Americans aged 55 and over were members of a gym in 1987. Today, that number has risen to a staggering 7.5-million: American seniors are flocking to gyms and health clubs in record numbers!The heath benefits of regular exercise are obvious - improve their health, meet new friends, and stay active. Especially weightlifting - which increases muscle size - is an important weapon in the battle against natural muscle loss due to aging.
2. LIFESTYLEDangers of everyday life you never realized must be taken account of to enjoy a long, healthy life.3. ATTITUDEPositive thinking empowers you and help you to keep young and happy.
The mantra "You're only as old as you feel" is really true. In addition, realize that you are responsible for your life and there's a huge amount that you can do.4. COSMETIC ENHANCEMENTThis can be a viable support, even if there can be financial and psychological issues to take into account.
5. SEXNowadays seniors can keep themselves sexually active balancing the hormonal levels or taking libido boosters drugs/supplements.6. NUTRITIONThe only method proven to slow aging and extend lifespan in mammals is caloric restriction of a nutrient-rich diet, which has been demonstrated to work in rats, mice, and is now being studied in monkeys.
While some people practice caloric restriction as a means of extending lifespan, its primary value is as a model to explore how aging can be controlled. However, stick to a healthy diet to live better and longer.7. NEW ANTI-AGING DRUGS AND SUPPLEMENTSAnti-aging medicine will advance substantiating the efficacy and safety of new drugs, nutrients, and supplements.
DRUGS TO SLOW AGINGReplacing the hormones which decline with age, such as estrogen (Estrogen Replacement Therapy), testosterone, DHEA, melatonin, and now HGH (Human Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy), is as important to the treatment of aging as is replacing normal levels of insulin is to an insulin-dependent diabetic.SUPPLEMENTS TO SLOW AGINGResearch shows that today's cutting edge supplements can give an extra measure of protection against the most dreadead age-related illness: Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, arthritis, depression, heart disease, stroke even cancer.If you are over 50, don't wait to start taking these supplements. The time to begin protecting yourselves form aging is right now.
TOP 12 SUPPLEMENTS TO SLOW AGING1. Multi-Vitamin Supplement2. Vitamin E3. Testosterone (for men) The hormonal stimulus for sex drive in both men and women is Testosterone, which declines with advancing age in both sexes.
Testosterone also plays an important role in maintaining muscle mass and strength and bone density. The hormone is often administered to aging men and women as a topical cream, but also is available in oral and injectable forms.4. One hormone that is deficient in almost everyone over 35 is DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone).
5. Ginkgo Biloba6. Saw Palmetto/Nettle Extract (For men)Calcium Supplements (for women)7. Melatonin8.
Vitamin K has been approved for the treatment of osteoporosis in Japan since 1995. It has shown promise in protecting against multiple pathological processes associated with aging.9. AspirinLow-dose aspirin helps to inhibit chronic inflammatory conditions that are known to contribute to lethal diseases.
A particularly dangerous agent in the blood called C-reactive protein causes inflammation of the interior arterial wall that can result in acute blockage of a coronary or cerebral artery.10. Essential Fatty AcidsMost people fail to obtain an optimal balance of essential fatty acids from their diet. That is why dietary supplements such as fish, flax, and borage oils may help.
MY BACKGROUND & SERVICESFor many bodybuilder and athletes, writing an article is a difficult chore. On the other hand, bodybuilding reports, articles, and translations are detailed work, and highly technical.
