"This would include conditions such as:
• Autoimmune diseases Cancer
Mental illness or depression
• Anyone on prescription steroids should check with their doctor first
In fact, it probably makes sense to check with an anti-aging specialist' before starting a program of hormone supplementation. Yes, that's right. There is now such a thing as an anti-aging specialist.
'Keep in mind that these specialists are still medical doctors and still prone to some of the same paradigm blindness that afflicts most doctors." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)
| "This study demonstrates the wisdom of methods used by Joseph Pilates and ancient movement exercises such as yoga, tai chi, and qi gong for anti-aging benefits. There are many interpretations of the work that Joseph Pilates did. We list several books and videotapes on Pilates, yoga, tai chi, and qi gong in the resources section.
Learning these techniques is very helpful not only because they help produce a trim, lithe body with impressive muscle definition but also because they can turn ordinary activities into meaningful exercise." - Vincent Giampapa, Ronald Pero, and Marcia Zimmerman, The anti-aging Solution: 5 Simple Steps to Looking and Feeling Young (Get the book.)
| "Michael Schedler, writing in the Doctors' Prescription for Healthy Living, hails them as an anti-aging remedy.
Systemic enzymes are "very likely the most important all-around natural anti-aging medicine available to American consumers today," asserted Dr. Schedler, citing their immune-enhancing and anti-inflammatory abilities as a key to reducing sclerosis and fibrosis, "recognized to be among the main culprits of premature aging in Americans today." - Freedom Press, Natural Cancer Cures: The Definitive Guide to Using Dietary Supplements to Fight and Prevent Cancer (Get the book.)
| "The formula for successful anti-aging is practically the same for any diseases.
Anti-Aging Program - after 30 days on the program below, you can get the following tests to evaluate whether any other nutrients are needed to get the levels into a safe area.

| "That's the main key to anti-aging. Specifically, the benefits of HGH can be measured in terms of how much it increases the body's production of IGF-1.' Any number above 20% starts to be significant in terms of effectiveness for anti-aging.
Most of the fotmulas on the market will increase IGF-1 levels by a minimum of 20%—some even approaching 100%.2 Keep in mind, however, that one 30-minute aerobic session can easily increase IGF-1 levels by a good 100%, and a solid session of weight training can increase levels by an incredible 400-800%." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)
| "With the home test kits you will now be able to monitor and reliably ensure your progression toward a longer, healthier life and validate the benefits of the anti-aging 5-Step Plan. We suggest you do the tests as you begin the program, then retest after you have been following the plan for 12 weeks. In many cases, you will note a dramatic improvement in test results in just 2 weeks.
There are three groups of tests in your home test kit:
1. The serum thiol test for DNA repair capacity and overall health
2. The F2-isoprostane test for oxidative burden

| "Anti-Aging Supplements
Many companies have jumped on the anti-aging bandwagon after it was discovered that the pituitary gland can actually be fed the necessary precursors that allow it to increase its natural production of hgh. If you decide to look into this mode of supplementation, be sure the product you select is made entirely from natural ingredients. Basically, you need to look for a supplement that will feed the body, not stimulate it." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

| "This is the key concept: A properly eaten live-food diet turns on the anti-aging and anti-diabetic genes. On a live-food, plant-only diet people naturally tend to go to their optimal weight. Because of this you automatically lose weight on our program if you are overweight. The people in the movie had an average weight loss (with the exception of the two Type-l diabetics who were very thin to begin with) of 25 pounds in the first month. Often we see people who are obese lose 100-plus pounds in a year on a live-food diet without doing anything but eating live foods." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.)
"Spindler found a fourfold increase in the expression of the anti-aging genes in short-term caloric restrictions, and a 2.5-fold increase in the expression of youthing genes in long-term caloric restriction. He was able to reproduce this with a 95 percent success rate.
Spindler noted that caloric restriction not only prevented deterioration or genetic change gradually over the life span of the animal, but actually reversed most of the aging changes in a short period of time. His research lasted only a month with the rats."

"You know you are getting these when there is a full rainbow of colors in your vegetables, fruits, and grains, as colors are actually the pigments containing phytonutrients, which turn on the anti-aging, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory genes. Most important, these phytonutrients turn off the diabetes-causing genes and turn on the anti-diabetic genes. In Genetic Nutritioneering, Jeffrey Bland, PhD, explains how the hormone insulin indirectly speaks to the genes and alters gene expression. Insulin also influences the other hormones in the body."

| "All these properties of coenzyme Qiq enhance its anti-aging benefits.
Coenzyme Q10 in Cellular Energy Metabolism
Coenzyme Qio's role in cellular energy metabolism is probably its most important function. We have already learned that most of the body's energy metabolism occurs in the mitochondria through a process called oxidative phosphorylation. Electrons are transported through this pathway down the electron transport chain, where they give up their energy to generate ATP from ADP, fueling virtually every cellular function." - Stephen T. Sinatra, M.D., The Sinatra Solution Metabolic Cardiology (Get the book.)
| "Many claims have been made about DHEA's effect on the immune system, and its anti-aging properties are said to include better memory, less fatigue, more energy, relaxation, and increased ability to handle stress. It is also touted as having positive effects on bone density and helping to prevent cancer and cardiovascular disease. However, the exact effect DHEA has on the body's cells is unclear. I have seen DHEA increase energy, improve stress response, improve muscle mass, and occasionally increase libido." - Tori Hudson, N.D., Women's Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine: Alternative Therapies and Integrative Medicine for Total Health and Wellness (Get the book.)
| "Although many anti-aging enthusiasts are familiar with DHEA, far fewer are likely to be aware of its metabolite, 7-keto DHEA, which within the body to safely boost immune function and help reduce body fat. The term 7-keto DHEA is in fact a brand name for the chemical compound 3-acetyl-7-dehydroepiandrosterone. Human blood levels of both DHEA and 7-keto DHEA tend to rise and fall in a similar pattern with age: increasing until the twenties, beginning to decline in the thirties, and continuing to decline until the levels are reduced by about 50 percent by age fifty." - C.

| "UC Berkeley, has stated, "Aging is an accumulation of random damage to the building blocks of life—especially to DNA, certain proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids (fats)—that begins early in life and eventually exceeds the body's self-repair capabilities."
Fatty Acid Damage and Its Consequences
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are a fertile source of electrons because they contain several exposed electron pairs. It's easy for free radicals to sneak in and swipe one of these electrons, which sets off a cascade of destructive activity." - Vincent Giampapa, Ronald Pero, and Marcia Zimmerman, The anti-aging Solution: 5 Simple Steps to Looking and Feeling Young (Get the book.)
| "Anti-aging
Niacin is a remarkable anti-aging nutrient, much simpler and safer than drugs prescribed to treat aging conditioned. A study by L.H. Curtis and colleagues concluded that out of a sample of 162,370 elderly subjects, 21% were given prescriptions for one or more drugs that were considered inappropriate.^ More than 15% of them had prescriptions for two of such drugs, and 4% were getting three or more. Curtis was concerned because of the potential for severe side effects. Dr Hoffer recently met with one elderly patient who was taking 28 different drugs, all on prescription." - Dr. Abram Hoffer, MD, FRCP (C) and Dr. Harold D.

"has a wide range of pharmacological and therapeutical actions; it acts on the central nervous system, cardiovascular system and endocrine secretion, promotes immune function and metabolism, possesses biomodulation action, anti-stress and anti-aging activities, and so on." Hardly an undistinguished resume. China has approved many preparations of ginseng for clinical application." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why (Get the book.)
"In 1997, the foundation announced that SAMe "promises to be the most potent, multipurpose, anti-aging, anti-disease therapy we have ever introduced." Powerful words.
Has the prediction held up?
In a word, yes. The Life Extension Foundation was on the money with this one. While I'm not a fan of hyperbole that sounds levels higher than the recommended daily allowance is critical for preserving and slowing bone loss. And if you needed any further proof, the Framingham Heart Study found that men and women with the highest intakes of potassium and magnesium had the strongest bone density."

| "Thierry Hertoghe, a leading anti-aging physician from Belgium. He plucked me from the audience as a prime example of forty-something aging. Dr. Hertoghe made sure everyone got a good look at my thinning outer eyebrows, the "gooseflesh" skin of my upper arms, my dry skin, and my slow ankle reflexes (low active thyroid). My sagging cheeks (deficient growth hormone) and reddened eyelids (lack of Cortisol) were duly noted, as were my fingernails, which were thin and dry with ridges. Dr. Hertoghe pointed to the wrinkles about my mouth and eyes, consistent with my waning estrogen." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)
"There is much debate about using growth hormone, but it has been a mainstay of the anti-aging community for over twenty years. Improving low growth hormone levels, by using either injections or amino acid-based growth hormone "enhancers" can dramatically improve your sleep if your growth hormone is too low.
Hormonal Causes and Characteristics of Poor Sleep
Estrogen Sleep that is too light, waking unrefreshed even if sleeping through the night.
Progesterone PMS insomnia, trouble falling asleep, difficulty falling back if awakened.
DHEA Sleep that feels too light, lacking dreams."

Progesterone is the most protective breast hormone. At an infertility clinic at Johns Hopkins, Linda Cowan published a study in the early 1980s. She followed two groups of women for more than 20 years. There aren't many studies like this. What's unique about these women is that one group had blocked fallopian tubes, and the other group had progesterone deficiency. The only long-term health effect the women with blocked tubes had was the inability to get pregnant." - C. W.

| "Duke's anti-aging Elixir
Old-Fashioned Ear Easer
MY WIFE. PEGGY. SEEMS TO have worse hearing than I do. It's not just my mumbling, which I admit is a problem. Quite often, when the television is playing, she misses what is clearly audible to me. She asks me what was said, and I tell her. Then I remind her that much of what's on TV isn't worth hearing anyhow.
Most hearing problems don't respond well to treatment. So prevention is not just the best way to go, it's quite possibly the only way to go.
Like all of our senses, our hearing does decline somewhat as we get older." - James A. Duke, Ph.D., The Green Pharmacy anti-aging Prescriptions: Herbs, Foods, and Natural Formulas to Keep You Young (Get the book.)
| "Everyone and everything at HBA, it seemed, invoked the anti-aging dream — wrinkle-free claims at every product booth, even wrinkle-free jokes mixed in with the morning presentations.
I found a booth for organic ingredients and asked the proprietor, "Do you get much interest in organics from the big companies?" He dropped into a trance-like sales pitch and told me that organic ingredients are proven to boost the natural anti-aging capabilities of the body." - Stacy Malkan, Not Just a Pretty Face: The Ugly Side of the Beauty Industry (Get the book.)

For them a good night's sleep is elusive. Here's how to get it with melatonin. Chapter 12 discusses growth hormone.
Good Sleep
We all need a good night's sleep for a stable mood, a good memory, and a strong immune system. Sleep is mysterious. It occurs in repeating ninety-minute cycles, controlled by your inner clock (regulated by melatonin). Each sleep cycle contains five stages of sleep." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)
| "Resveratrol activates anti-aging genes that stimulate the production of proteins that circulate in your body, throwing overboard cells that aren't pulling their weight and rejuvenating cells damaged by advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). But don't rush out to the health food store to buy resveratrol capsules, which are generally worthless because resveratrol is inactivated by exposure to oxygen. The fermentation process that produces wine yields carbon dioxide, which protects the resveratrol from the effects of oxygen." - Dr. Steven R.
