The aging process is largely no longer a mystery. To a large extent, it consists of daily damage occurring at the macroscopic, tissue, cellular and genetic levels. As the years go by, there are more and more of them. These damages have specific causes, such as oxidants, sunlight, mechanical wear and tear, psychological stress, lack of some nutrients and excess of others, such as fats.


Another component of aging is the shortening of telomere strands at the ends of chromosomes with each cell division. When they are shortened enough, cells stop dividing. However, the body has the means to repair these ends with the telomerase enzyme. The rapidity of the aging process depends on the lack of efficiency of this repair process. The above-mentioned causes of aging also slow down this process.

Factors that cause aging also cause other diseases, such as cancer and coronary heart disease. Both aging and these diseases can be largely prevented with the knowledge we have today, and much of the damage done can be reversed. To do this, the following components are necessary:

-An adequate daily diet containing whole grains, peas, beans, vegetables, fruits, fish, mushrooms, mushrooms and seafood, and only moderate amounts of red meat.

-Moderate amounts of fats.

-Ideally, most of the fats a person eats should be monounsaturated. Some polyunsaturated fats like omega-3 and omega-6 are also needed, but not too many omega-6. Consumption of saturated fats should be very small.

- To achieve a proper fat balance, most of the fats should come from sources such as olive oil, peanuts, canola, fish, nuts, sunflowers, etc. Then you get a good balance between mono-unsaturated fats (olive, canola, peanuts), polyunsaturated fats like omega-3 (fish) and polyunsaturated fats like omega-6 (sunflowers).

-Very moderate amounts of butter, soybean oil, margarine, corn oil and palm oil. High intake of these fat sources yields too much saturated fat and polyunsaturated omega-6 fats.

-Very moderate amounts of sugar, refined flour or refined grains.

-Do not add more salt to your food than you need. Most people consume too much salt. However, some amount of salt is necessary. If the weather is warm and you have an active lifestyle, you need more salt than you do in cold weather and low activity. Prefer sea salt because it contains valuable minerals.

-Moderate consumption of tranquilizers/stimulants such as alcohol and caffeine, but in moderation, they help to slow down the aging process.

-Do not smoke or use tobacco.

-Take special supplements such as vitamins, minerals, lecithin and some essential fatty acids.

-Adequate exercise that stresses the muscles, improves condition and stretches the body at the same time. Yoga exercises are ideal for stretching.

-Adequate rest and stress relief. Daily meditation is one method of achieving this goal. Natural relaxation remedies or special meditation or relaxation tools can also be helpful.

-Taking special anti-aging products such as antioxidants or human growth hormone.

-Use of special anti-aging products to apply to the surface of the skin.

-Protecting your skin from excessive sun exposure.

The amount of nutritional supplements such as vitamins and minerals varies greatly depending on a person's health, workload and exposure to environmental stresses. You can always find these and other tips as well as examples of different diets with their full descriptions on the company's website writemyessay.nyc. A person with poor digestion, who is involved in high performance sports or who is exposed to a lot of environmental stress may need more than a person in a normal situation.
