Top 21 Ways to Slow Down Your Aging Process

  1. Make sure you are taking supplements for overall good health. If you are not taking these basic supplements, we recommend Enfuz from Vitabase. When you take a small packet of pills each day, you get all the basic nutrition you need. Each packet contains a multivitamin, CoQ10 (for heart health), Omega 3, Vitamin D-3, a probiotic, and a powerful set of antioxidants to help your body fight off disease.
  2. A growth regulator or human growth hormone (HGH or GH) is a hormone known as somatotropin. When given to seniors, this hormone can restore muscle mass and cut down on the amount of fat tissue which will revert aging changes. You can only use this under the direct care of a doctor.
  3. A powerful free radical scavenger that can shield the cells is superoxide dismutase (SOD) which is an enzyme. As people get older, it is very common for people to lose their sense of balance and fall. Seniors can be more prone to weak muscles, poor vision, weaker legs, decreased sensation, or other medically-troublesome conditions. These same type of ailments can also occur in younger adults that have to depend on prescriptions. Slow reflexes, decreased perception, and/or impaired mobility may be prevalent. Injuries are not uncommon due to these challenges. Seniors are not just subject to falls that cause bodily harm. Recovery may be slow and can lead to other developments including bedsores, increased muscle weakness, & greater exposure and be suffering from infections. Staying active has been found to be a mainline defense against injuries from accidents. Critical, also, is to keep in touch with your doctor and pharmacist regarding any side effects from medicines you may be taking.
  4. A side effect of getting older is that the hair does not keep its healthy condition and can shed more than usual. Panthothenic acid (also known as vitamin B5) may reverse these conditions, as well as improve normal adrenal and immune function.
  5. According to The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 30 percent of 65 or older adults experience a failure in being able to absorb vitamin B12 and folic acid efficiently. This could be due to hydrochloric acid being insufficient and/or too much bacteria has accumulated in the intestinal tract. If it is not possible to obtain injections to correct this, this can also be corrected by application under the tongue for maximum assimilation.
  6. Aging cannot be classified as an illness. Certain health problems can arise, however, as a direct result of aging. A few of the problems that elderly can experience are constipation, depression, diarrhea, dizziness, heart palpitations, heartburn and indigestion, and weight gain.
  7. Another amino acid called glutathione may be useful as an antioxidant and as an agent to remove toxins from the body. As a person ages, the levels of glutathione in the cells can plummet as much as 30-35 percent. Restoring levels of glutathione may reverse aging in the liver, lungs, kidneys, and bone marrow. An ideal methodology to restore glutathione is by taking it as a supplement. Another way to increase glutathione is by supplementing with N-acetylcysteine.
  8. Another B vitamin that can make skin more vibrant and slow down wrinkling is para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA). Combine PABA with dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) and an individual may experience elevated brain function, immunity, and cellular regeneration.
  9. Coenzyme Q10 shields the heart, ensures maximum tissue oxygenation, and is essential for many bodily functions. The highest level of coenzyme Q10 is located in the liver and heart muscle. Since the liver is responsible for ridding the body of toxins, it is vital that the liver performs to its maximum efficiency so that damage to body tissues will be minimized.
  10. Dimethylaminoethan (DMAE) has multiple benefits including memory & mental ability increase, alertness and focus enrichment, as well as improving mood and vision.
  11. Elderly people can regularly experience a burning sensation usually on the bottom of the feet. This can happen because they may not be getting enough vitamin B12 in their diet. Since a great many older people have trouble with absorbing B vitamins, it would be advisable to use a method that circumvents the digestive tract such as injections. Another alternative to injections is an application under the tongue.
  12. For those individuals that support the use of colostrums, they usually refer to it as being the most significant substance that can deter aging and supplement immune strength. In addition, they say that the degree that the hormones affect aging and harm the immune system can be diminished. Bovine colostrums is usually recommended more than other colostrums.
  13. Immune function can be strengthened with an adrenal hormone called dehydroeplandrosterone (DHEA). It may be acceptable for the prevention and treatment of disorders related to aging. A form of DHEA that is not changed into estrogen or testosterone is 7-Keto DHEA.
  14. Lipoic acid is vital in glycolysis and in the Kreb’s cycle, two processes that are complex bioprocesses that must be present in order to generate cellular energy. In order for the liver to restore its energy levels, the liver must depend on these processes. Germany is very knowledgeable in attesting to the benefits of lipoic acid to build liver function and manage diabetes.
  15. Pregnenolone can occur naturally in the body. Pregnenolone may be a major factor in improving how brain functions, lessening mood swings, and positively impacting memory and cognitive thinking.
  16. The amino acid gylcine is a manufacturer of Dimethylglycine (DMG) which can be responsible for supporting immune function and restoring oxygenation in the tissues.
  17. It is not uncommon for seniors to gripe that they never get enough sleep. Oftentimes, this can happen due to ingestion of sugar after dinner. Alternatively, complex carbohydrates will have the opposite reaction and allow relaxation to occur. Popcorn is one such nighttime snack, as is nut butter and crackers. Protein stimulates activity and attentiveness, so it should be included in a morning or early afternoon snack.
  18. Laboratory experiments have shown that the drug selegiline (Eldepryl which is also known as Deprenyl) extended how long an adult rat could expect to live by an astonishing 210%. It has been suggested by researchers that minute doses of selegiline may free brain cells from death due to trauma or disease. Depending on what happens in future research, Parkinson’s disease may not be the only condition for which seligiline is now officially allowed. Alternatives currently under research for possible anti-aging treatments as well. These include substances called N-tertiary-butyl-alphaphenylnitrone (PBN) which show promise as agents to improve memory and block free radical damage; centrophenoxine which prevents the build up of waste products and toxins in the cells; growth hormone-releasing hormone (GRH) and insulin, two hormones that can trigger human growth hormone to develop; isoprinosine, an immune booster and nerve growth factor that may deter the progression of Alzheimer’s disease; and thymosins which are hormones that come from the thymus gland and increase immune action and act as a major player in the endocrine system.
  19. The Chinese have long acclaimed that mushrooms such as morel, reishi, shiitake, and maitake will provide eternal youth and longevity. Additional benefits may be the prevention of high blood pressure and heart disease, cholesterol reduction, the possibility of reducing fatigue and viral infections, as well as others not listed here. You can purchase them fresh or take them as supplements.
  20. We can’t deter getting older. What we can do, though, is to slow down how quickly we age and extend our lifespan by acting now to stimulate cell divisions on an ongoing basis. If only the scientists could learn how to prevent cells from expiring and causing bodily harm, the aging process could potentially be increasingly short-lived.
  21. When we are young, our body makes an abundant supply of melatonin which is a natural hormone. However, as we get older, our supply of melatonin is depleted. One of the experiments that were done in a laboratory reported that when they gave melatonin to mice, their life expectancy was increased dramatically by one-third. It has also been suggested that melatonin may be beneficial as a cancer preventative, a method to induce sleep and build up immunity.
