Make Your Own Anti-Aging ProgramWith a little knowledge, you can make your own anti-aging program. Many of the age-old beauty secrets are still in use today, such as the clay mask or the seaweed wrap you will find in a spa. You can drastically slow the aging process to look and feel your best for years to come. Let’s find out how… Keeping Healthy, Plump Skin and Full, Thick HairJuice - Vegetable juice, such as carrot and spinach, are full of nutrients that are needed for your body to continue producing collagen needed to health, plump skin. It is also full of vitamins and minerals needed for your hair to remain healthy and full. When you make your own anti-aging program, include the vegetable juices for the added nutrition. Your body can utilize these more than any pill and the live enzymes are an added benefit. No pill can replicate all the micronutrients found in this juice. In addition, as we age, our bodies cannot absorb all the nutrients they once could as the digestive process slows. By drinking vegetable juice, you don't have to worry about this because the nutrients are assimilated without the body having to digest it to pull the vitamins and minerals from the pulp of the vegetables.Essential Fatty Acids - EFA's are needed for hormonal balance, which is important to keep your skin from prematurely thinning. In addition, these "oils" are needed for elasticity of skin and hair and lubricating your joints. EFA's have also been proven to benefit brain function and keep you from feeling depressed. Facial Scrub - When you make your own anti-aging program, make sure to include a regimine for your face and include a scrub. Using a facial scrub is important to eliminate the dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. If not removed, these dead cells will cause a lackluster look and even create blemishes on the dryest of skin. In addition, regular use of a scrub can help your body create more collagen which is also needed for skin plumpness. It is important to find a scrub that is good for your skin type. Growth Hormone - Another theory of aging, and reason we age is the decline of human growth hormone (HGH) which is the body’s messenger for repairing worn out cells, such as skin and hair, and making new ones. When you make your own anti-aging program, be sure to include the following important nutritional supplements. While using a synthetic growth hormone can have negative side effects, there is no harm when taking the correct nutrients to help your body continue to manufacture and release its own growth hormone. I have found one product that I love for this, called Rejuvamin by Biocentrics. There are no side effects because, as with vegetable juice, if your body will only produce as much growth hormone as it needs. Dry Skin Brushing - Another way to keep skin on the rest of your body glowing is dry skin brushing every day. This exfoliates old skin cells, far more than a loofa. It brings blood to the surface of your skin, which brings more nutrients. With the extra nutrients, your body has the ability to make more collagen and eliminate more waste that ages your skin. Keeping Your Skin TightVegetable Juice, EFA's and Hormones - All of these items described above contribute to giving your body the nutrition it needs to continue to manufacture collagen, which is the "binder" that keeps your skin from sagging. As we age, we can give it all the help it needs to keep the process strong as long as we can.Exercise - For exercise, try rebounding, which is jumping on a small trampoline for 10-20 minutes for exercise. This exercises all the muscles and cells, inside and out. To be honest, when I first started using one, I felt like my insides were going to fall out (this was about 4 months after my second child). After only two weeks, I felt like I was wearing a girdle, my entire insides felt so strong! Once I inquired the company about what it would do to my face, worried that it would have a negative effect, I was informed it would do for my facial muscles the same thing it did for my insides. You must be careful, though. I tried on a regular trampoline and my ankles and feet started to hurt. When switching to a rebounder that was made for exercise, it was like jumping on the Cadillac of trampolines. Internal Youth and HealthAnti-aging really starts inside. Skin starts looking older as it loses the ability to absorb nutrients, so it loses elasticity. As collagen stops being produced, the skin becomes thinner on the neck and face.The goal of a colon cleanse is to assist your body in eliminating these toxins that cause aging. As we can eliminate and keep these at bay, we can slow down the breakdown. Make your own anti-aging program starting with a colon cleanse. Add high quality nutrition, include fresh vegetable juices, facial treatments, dry skin brushing, amino acids for your hormones and the right exercise.
