A great deal about aging has to do with exercise and nutrition. Something many people don't realize, that I only learned in my late 40's, is that exercise, spread across the day, regulates your hormone systems. If a person were to spend three 'breaks' doing 15 minutes of walking it would have a different effect than one 45 minute walk, essentially. That's something 'to think about' for sure.
Eating lots of organic vegetables and taking the proper supplements is a large part, and we have much to offer at Lumigrate related to supplementing nutrition: A video by Scott Rollins, MD titled Supplements and Disease Prevention which comes complete with a handout to follow on with on the screen or print out, plus loads in the Nutrition section, "Supplementing What You Eat" forum. There are also recipes and other things to be FUN and support the concepts. (Not all are 'healthy' recipes, they are 'homey' as well).
When I worked with patients in insurance-based medicine doing occupational therapy, I'd get their age on their incoming paperwork, but I'd ask them "How old are you?" -- "in your mind". Particularly the ones who seemed mentally younger than their physical bodies represented. I just hope my mental and physical aging go hand in hand. I value the education I've gotten from the seminars I attended, some of which are here for you at Lumigrate, and the written / readable information. I hope you feel the same. Supplements, exercise, nutrition, hormones prescribed well .... YOU have a lot of power when it comes to aging.
