YOUNGER AND HEALTHIER FOR LONGER
Aging
The human has a built-in mechanism that ensures aging to guarantee human mortality.
Aging begins in adulthood, picks up in middle age, and accelerates after age fifty. No sooner has the body reached its peak in the twenties than it begins its long and slow decline, thus starting decades of change, which is aging.
How to stop aging?
To stop aging, you need to begin anti-aging strategies at any early age.
To stop aging, you need to follow the advice of experts on aging and longevity.
To stop aging, you need to use mind power to bring about positive changes in lifestyle.
What the experts have to say about how to stop aging:
Dr. Huber Warner (the National Institute on Aging)
"The problems that lead to aging are cumulative, and the sooner you start correcting them, the better off you are in the long run."
How to stop aging? Stop the aging process when you are young, not when you are old. One of the most important factors regarding how to stop aging is time. To slow down or stop aging, time is of essence. It is important to be concerned about aging as early as possible, so that positive actions may be taken to stop aging, because the effects of aging are cumulative. Start correcting problems that accelerate aging before it is too late.
Dr. Ben Douglas (health researcher)
"Many of the things that we blame on aging really have nothing to do with getting older."
How to stop aging? Use your mind power. Aging has more to do with the mind than the body. Truly, physical strength and sexual vigor may decline with age; it is the mind that controls your thoughts, and hence your actions. If you believe that mental fogginess is a characteristic of old age, or 80 percent of seniors have dementia by age 85, then it may become a self-fulfilling prophecy as soon as you turn 85. It is always mind over matter.
Aging is a way of thinking. In the past, a person was considered old at age 65; now, 65 is just a beginning of another chapter in life.
Develop the mind-set to stay young physically and mentally. (Go to my web page: Mind Healing.)
Dr. John Holloszy (researcher at Washington University School of Medicine)
"the average man who lifts weights will look even better than an endurance athlete when they are both older."
How to stop aging? Maintaining physical strength plays a pivotal part in aging. Accelerated aging is a result of decline in physical strength, which often leads to immobility and loss of muscle mass.
According to research studies, seniors in the nineties can increase their leg strength by as much as 200 percent through weight training.
The moral lesson here: it is never too late to exercise to stop aging.
Dr. E. Douglas Whithead (urologist)
"Giving up on sex at any age can be symbolically giving up on all of life."
How to stop aging? Do not give up on sex. Be sexually active throughout your lifespan. Use it or lose it.
Dr. Mark H. Cline (male Health Center in Dallas)
"When you are physically fit, you have more energy and you are more likely to be sexually active."
How to stop aging? Follow Dr. Cline's advice: Get physically fit to remain sexually fit!
In addition to getting physically fit, it is equally important to breathe right.
Professor Ken Douglas (University of Mississippi)
"Even if you don't exercise, breathing deeply can keep your lungs young. . . . by age 70 you'll have the lungs of a 45-year-old. . . .
A lot of the tiredness we feel as we age is due to a decrease in oxygen to the body's systems."
How to stop aging? Learn to breathe right to get more oxygen to your lungs.
Michael Vitiello (associate director of the Sleep Research Program at the University of Washington in Seattle)
"Lack of sleep at any age is going to make you feel old. It's not so important how long you sleep as how good you feel during the day as a result."
How to stop aging? Get natural sleep. Sleep with the aid of medications is never good sleep. (For more information on how to get natural sleep, go to my web page: Sleep Health.)
Relaxation is an age eraser, while stress is an age accelerator. Learn how to relax through relaxation techniques and meditation to stop aging.
Dr. Linus Pauling (Nobel Laureate)
"You could have an extra 12 to 18 years if you took from 3,200 to 12,000 milligrams of vitamin C a day." (an equivalent of 45 to 170 oranges).
How to stop aging? Get the antioxidant vitamin C. Dr. Pauling lived to a ripe old age of 93.
Dr. Ronald Klatz (expert in anti-aging)
How to stop aging? Dr. Klatz recommends taking daily these nutritional supplements to stop aging:
Vitamin C (2,000 to 12,000 milligrams)
Vitamin E (800 IU)
Beta carotene (15 milligrams)
Selenium (200 micrograms)
Coenzyme Q-10 (100 milligrams)
Ginkgo biloba extract (80 milligrams)
Garlic capsules (12)
Multivitamin-mineral supplement without iron and copper
Lao Tzu (a great Chinese philosopher, perhaps only second to Confucius, the great teacher of the Orient)
“There is nothing worse than not knowing when one has enough. There is no greater fault than the desire for things. The one who knows when enough is enough will always have enough.”
How to stop aging? Simply eat less, and stop eating when enough is enough; essentially, it means "calorie restriction" and “temperate living” -- which, unfortunately, many individuals simply fail to do.
Luigi Cornaro (one of the world's most celebrated centenarians, who lived from 1464 to 1566 AD)
"I accustomed myself to the habit of never fully satisfying my appetite, either with eating or drinking-- always leaving the table well able to take more. In this, I acted according to the proverb: 'Not to satiate one’s self with food is the science of health' . . . . . . Each person is his or her own best physician . . . . . the temperate lifestyle is the best medicine."
How to stop aging and live to the age of hundred-and-two like Luigi Cornaro, the Venetian nobleman? Eat a calorie-restriction diet, and lead a temperate lifestyle. Most importantly, be your own physician and heal yourself. (For more information on self-healing, go to my website: Self-Healing Self-Help.)
