Aging is inevitable, and as soon as you cross over to 40, it almost seems like you’ve aged overnight. While we’re pretty sure there’s not a fountain of youth or a fancy elixir that prevents you from aging altogether, there are some easy anti-aging hacks that you can adopt to help slow down the process.
So much emphasis on is put in the kind of skin products which you can use for anti ageing purposes.
Little did you know there are some amazing ways to boost your longevity just by doing some lifestyle changes! These include changes in your diet and exercise regime!
Let’s look at some of these a little more closely!
Consume more vitamin c rich fruits and apples. Chowing down on whole, hydrating fruits, such as apples, can help your skin look supple and fresh. Due to the presence of pectin, apples detoxifies the body of waste products and also reduce the forming of wrinkles by keeping the body well-hydrated.
Other anti-aging fruits include avocados, bananas, blueberries and strawberries, and papayas.
Vitamin C helps to undo some of the sun and pollution damage our skin sustains during the day, brightens discoloration, plays an important role in wound healing, and helps the skin to lock in moisture that is so critical for both the skin and our other physiological functions.
Exercise is no doubt extremely beneficial when it comes to making our body healthierand longevity by preventing chronic diseases.
Little did you know that strength training in particular, has amazing anti ageing effects!
But how?
Ageing successfully is all about production of The increased strength.
The potential for strength training lies in its ability to rejuvenate and rebuild bigger and more powerful muscle fibers knows as Type II or fast twitch muscle.
The amazing thing is that this potential can be unleashed with very brief (20 minutes), infrequent (1-2 times a week) and most importantly, very safe (customized technology) way.
By partnering the powerful combination of whole food nutrition with strength training, insulin resistance can also be reversed.
Insulin Resistance is a major predictor of the effects of aging. When that becomes an issue (and it does due to a combination of excess carbohydrates and lack of meaningful exercise) a host of more ailments such as weight gain, high blood pressure/triglycerides/LDL, pre & Type II diabetes and more can occur. These symptoms are all a function of processes in the body going bad.
Strength training not only stimulates greater glucose metabolism during and right after a workout but triggers an adaptive response for more muscle and thus greater metabolic potential for the next workout. This compounding effect leads to improved insulin sensitivity due to the improvements in muscle strength.
While we start losing muscle mass in our 30’s, it accelerates over time if nothing is done about it. While aging and inactivity are mostly blamed, it is truly the lack of deeper and more meaningful muscle fiber stimulation that is responsible for how we feel.
The most common correlation associated with aging is the loss of muscle and strength which affects our metabolism, bones and mental acuity
Greater muscle strength has been linked not only to reduced mortality, but also faster metabolism and improved cognitive function as well.
