Aging – A Graceful Journey
November 11, 2021
While aging is inevitable, increasing the human lifespan and slowing the aging process has been a focus of scientific research for decades. Let’s be honest: we all want to age gracefully. You could be in your 30’s, 40’s or simply believe age is just a number – one thing is for certain: it’s never too early (or too late) to take care of your body.
Health and wellness start beneath the surface of our skin and to achieve the goal of looking great on the outside and feeling full of energy we should also look at exercise, lifestyle, state of mind, and diet.
Scientists and Naturopathic Doctors have identified substances that have naturally occurring anti-aging properties which can be taken as supplements Those looking for natural ways to slow down the aging process and prevent age-related disease should look towards bespoke supplements, carefully curated to target your unique individual health and wellness needs.
Anti-aging Supplements: Do They Really Work?
The answer is a resounding yes! Certain Supplements have been better researched and therefore come with more evidence of benefits than others. Good things come to those who wait, and, in many cases, you’ll need to take an anti-aging supplement for a few weeks, and sometimes months, to notice
a difference. It’s a long game – but the end results are undeniably positive.
Age in Numbers: The Top 5 Anti-Aging Supplements
We’ve outlined some of the more common supplements that are sure to help you start glowing from the inside:
- Curcumin: this is the active compound found in turmeric, shown to hold powerful anti-aging properties, which are attributed to its strong antioxidant potential.
Cellular senescence happens when cells stop dividing. As we age, senescent cells accumulate. What does this mean? It accelerates aging and disease progression. This may be why turmeric intake has been associated with a reduced risk of age-related mental decline in humans for centuries.
EGCG: It’s a mouthful – Epigallocatechin gal late (EGCG) is a well-known compound concentrated in green tea. It offers remarkable health benefits, reduces the risk of certain cancers, as well as other health conditions like heart disease. Among EGCG’s diverse array of potential health-promoting properties is its ability to promote longevity and protect against age-related disease development.
Collagen: drinking from the fountain of youth? This integral component of your skin helps maintain its structure and reduces the appearance of skin aging. As we age, collagen production slows down and accelerates signs of aging like fine lines, dry skin and wrinkles.
CoO10: Coenzyme 010 is a naturally occurring antioxidant in humans. It plays essential roles in energy production and protects against cellular damage. Research has shown that levels of CoQl 0 decline as you age. Using CoQ10 as a supplement no doubt improves certain aspects of health, such as slowing down the deterioration of mental and physical performance.
Vitamin C: this vitamin finds it popularity for warding off colds and flu, however it also acts as a powerful antioxidant that improves skin’s texture and appearance. Ascorbic acid found in Vitamin C stimulates collagen production, which we now know helps reduce fine lines brought on by sun exposure, and even pollution.
- Curcumin: this is the active compound found in turmeric, shown to hold powerful anti-aging properties, which are attributed to its strong antioxidant potential.
The path to overall health and wellness can be a winding one, with some blind corners and bumps along the way. Being guided and having the peace of mind that you are not alone and that your journey can be a smooth one, especially when it comes to aging gracefully, is invaluable.
