1: Strictly follow a healthy, nutritious, nutrient dense and calorie restricted diet. Limit consumption of sugar (a study showed that sugar diminishes Growth Hormone secretion). Several studies have shown that being over overweight and suffering from obesity can significantly shorten ones life span and lead to a higher incidence of disease. Fat = Disease.
Repeated studies have shown that moderate caloric restriction can prolong life span up to 30% in humans and animals.
The best diet based on human evolution is one involving eating raw foods, eating enough fresh fruits, raw and steamed vegetables, nuts, and seeds.
2: Exercise regularly, including heavy weight training, aerobic exercise and stretching. Aging is associated with weaker muscles, lower bone mass and less flexibility. Several studies have shown that exercise and stretching (yoga) prolongs life, decreases heart disease, high blood pressure and stroke rates. Aerobic exercise is required. Calculate your Target Heart Rate (THR) and try to maintain it for 30 minutes 3-5 times a week during aerobic activities (running, jogging, bicycling, dancing).
3: Take adequate amounts of nutrients and supplements. Take a strong multi-vitamin with enough anti-oxidant activity. RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) is usually insufficient for the desired health effects. In the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine Desk Reference you can find out about the recommended doses. Follow this with 8 Glasses of water a day!
4: Make sure your hormones are balanced. Even if you are under 30 having your hormones checked is of great value in order to know your “baseline values”. If you are older than 30 or 40 balancing your hormones means helping with such symptoms like overweight, depression, peri-menopause, low libido, infertility and many others. Research has shown that testosterone, DHEA, Human Growth Hormone (HGH) and other hormones have protective effects and might increase life span from 10 to 20 years.
