WHAT IS ANTI-AGING AND

HOW CAN YOU BENEFIT FROM IT?

The new medical specialty of anti-aging is the fastest growing specialty of medicine!

More and more aging people just like you and me are now wanting to halt or even reverse

the signs and symptoms of aging, and to enjoy a longer and more youthful life. And now

this has most certainly become possible!

Anti-aging goes way beyond Botox, organic skin care products, face creams, or a relaxing spa treatment. It is more than merely trying to achieve younger looking skin and a nice

external complexion.

While a nice healthy looking skin is important it is not what true anti-aging is all about.

1. Anti-Aging Medicine

Anti-aging medicine is about extending the human lifespan and also about adding

youthfulness and health to those extended years.

Real anti-aging involves a combination of medical technologies and therapies used for the

early detection, prevention, treatment and reversal of age-related disability and disease.

2 ALL ABOUT ANTI-AGING

Anti-aging is not fiction or fantasy, it is now a reality as more and more people are now

understanding that anti-aging is now an accepted medical specialty that will only

continue to grow as advanced in medicine continue that will allow you to throw away all

those useless skin care products for good!

2. Anti-Aging Program

I believe that a true anti-aging program should address all the causes of aging - physical,

psychological, emotional and spiritual, and should include a complete holistic approach to

halt and reverse these causes.

I strongly believe that the first step towards any anti-aging program should be a complete

whole body detoxification. This in my mind is the key to complete health and anti-aging.

Without a whole body detoxification, you can take all the anti-aging products, natural

skincare products, and use all the latest high tech anti-aging medicine and supplements

you like, but you will not achieve complete health or true long term anti-aging.

3. International Anti-Aging

The growing field of anti-aging is now becoming truly international as now our aging

population is looking for solutions to their problem of growing old and weak and sick.

Who wants to grow old and slowly watch their body and mind deteriorate? No one is the

answer of course!

As we age the levels of hormones in our body decline at a rapid rate - which then leads to the signs and symptoms of aging.

This combined with a body that is full of toxins and chemicals, rapidly leads to physical,

mental, emotional and spiritual deterioration and aging, often at an alarmingly rapid rate.

A body full of toxins and chemicals (which in our toxic world is a very common scenario)

will sooner than later begin to develop degenerative disease and illness which will further

amplify the aging process.

Unless a complete whole body detoxification program is commenced immediately, the

outlook I believe will be quite poor, no matter what anti-aging program or hormone

replacement program is initiated.

AGELESS FACTS ABOUT

ANTI-AGING

Age gracefully with anti-aging!

Aging is an inevitable process of life.

Whether we're keen on it or not, we may

certainly age; grandkids will become

grandparents.

And as this fact is certainly true, it's also

correct that changes can be noted when we

enter old-age.

With this, you have got to face the proven

fact that your face will start to show its age.

However, this is the reason why anti age

methods are favoured these days; not to put

a halt to aging but rather, to let us to age

gracefully.

This suggests entering old age without having to look and feel old.

Now, there are lot of anti-aging strategies and approaches you could use to fight the signs

of aging. Let's take a look at these approaches:

1. Anti-Aging through Disease Prevention

The single smartest thing you can do to live longer and healthier is to do all you can to

stop disease and sickness.

Age defying isn't about living to three hundred years of age; it is actually about living so

long as possible in good health.

2. Anti-Aging Through Exercise

Exercise is another great anti-aging tool, and not just because it helps fight off illness.

Exercise can really make your DNA younger. This suggests folks who exercise more have

more fit younger cells.

Ageless Facts About Anti-Aging 5

3. Anti-Aging Through Food

Anti-aging relies on your body having the correct raw materials to fix damage and ensure

everything is working right.

Eating a solid variety of healthy foods gives those 'raw materials' (AKA antioxidants) to

your body.

Further, avoiding the unhealthy food means you body has less 'clean up' work to do and

can target keeping your cells, tissues and organs in their best working order.

4. Anti-Aging Through Sleep

Getting sufficient sleep has been linked forestalling chronic illness and even living longer.

Make sleep a very important part of your life, don't purloin from your sleep to do other

stuff and you'll be feeling happy and living longer.

5. Age Defying Skin Care

The skin, it's the biggest organ in the body and the very first thing people see when they

look at you.

That's why anti-age skin care is a market measured in the many millions because of the

guarantee of youthful skin.

6. Anti-Aging Hormones And Additions

An anti-aging pill would be wonderful as the majority of these additions produce

hormones that aids in anti-aging.

Now, speaking of anti-age supplements, they are indeed popular in the market nowadays.

These supplements, especially those with heavy levels of antioxidants, can stop the

consequences of the environment on the skin and even reverse some of the effects over

time.

This anti-aging effect of supplements centres on the free radical damage done to the skin.

For your info, free radicals are cellular by-product from the environmental components

including air pollution, sun rays, and stress and water intake.

The free radicals build up in the body over time and cause some of the most typical

evidence of aging.

However, anti-aging supplements help to rule in those free radicals and prevent them

from multiplying at a cellular level.

Slowly, over time, with the constant use of anti-aging additions, anti-age of the skin may

occur.

Those wrinkles may not appear so heavy and the fine lines less recounted.

6 ALL ABOUT ANTI-AGING

However the user of the anti-age supplement should note that the additions will only

work as long as they're taken constantly.

Also, everyone has free radicals in the body, there's no way to escape their production.

With the use of anti-age supplements like antioxidants, those free radicals don't have to

have such an obvious effect.

To sum up all, these anti-aging supplements works from the inside to the outside due to

the fact that they increase the production of anti-aging hormones that will help you age

gracefully.

This is perhaps why these products are gaining popularity in the market.

To the contrary, while there are a lot of anti-age tablets available in the market, it still

pays well to make a wise choice, because not all products are safe to take into our body.

With this, getting info about the ingredients of the product you select could help a lot.

Don't simply rely on the anti-aging promises they offer, seek proof and you may find the

best anti-aging product in the market here and now.

THE SOLUTION TO

ANTI-AGING SKIN CARE

The anti-aging skin care field has boomed, with hundreds of new products being

introduced to the market on what feels like almost on a daily basis.

This has resulted in what we may call skin care overload.

People have become overwhelmed and confused by the countless number of ingredients

we are told are necessary for anti-aging.

It has become impossible to access and apply even a fraction of these ingredients due to

the cost and time involved.

We feel compelled to buy multiple products every month and layer them on in order to do

the most for our skin.

But, as we fill our medicine cabinets with creams and serums, we are faced with the daily

questions of which shall we use, which are safe and which actually work?

It has been long overdue that the various categories of anti-aging and the anti-aging

ingredients themselves be ordered and categorized so that a comprehensive approach to

anti-aging may be put into place.

Firstly, there are many features to skin aging and people will show one or more features

over time, but may differ in the features of skin aging that plague them.

7

8 ALL ABOUT ANTI-AGING

For example, some people develop sagging or laxity to the skin due to genetic factors, but

may have little or no sun damage.

Others may be covered with sun spots but have no sagging or wrinkling.

The following is a validated classification scheme which allows for each clinical feature of

skin aging to be assessed separately on a 4-point grading scale (mild, moderate, advanced,

severe):

Classification of Skin Aging:

A. Laxity (Sagging)

B. Wrinkles

C. Redness

D. Brown discolorations

E. Solar elastosis (Yellowing)

F. Irregular texture

G. Abnormal growths (keratosis)

This classification scheme of skin aging includes a severity scale as mentioned above

(0=None, 1=Mild, 2=Moderate, 3=Advanced, and 4=Severe) which allows researchers or users to rank each individual person's skin aging according to feature and severity.

This scale was shown to be very useful in testing anti-aging treatments and has been

published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology.

1 Older scales tended to lump different features together into broad categories, which

became less useful as treatments became more specific in targeting various facets of skin

aging; for example as anti-pigment or anti-redness or anti-wrinkle.

With this current anti-aging scale, our anti-aging products may be quantitatively tested to

determine which individual categories of skin aging they treat and how effective they are

in each category.

This also allows us to hone our anti-aging regimen to our needs and to compile or group

the ingredients in each category that are most effective so as to cover all categories of

anti-aging in a logical manner.

The next challenge was to classify the plethora of anti-aging ingredients on the market

based on the features of skin aging that they targeted or treated.

I then created a classification scheme of the categories of anti-aging targeted by the

ingredients that have emerged over the past decade:

Solution To Anti-Aging Skincare 9

Anti-Wrinkle - DNA Defence - Barrier Fortification

Anti-Redness - Cellular Restore - Emollient/Moisturizer

Anti-Brown Discoloration - Damage Reversal - Pro-Skin Thickness

Anti-Oxidants - Aging Repair - Re-Texturize

With this classification scheme, we can appreciate why people have become so

overwhelmed and why they have accumulated shopping bags full of skin creams in order

to meet their needs!

Nevertheless, as anti-aging ingredients have emerged targeting each of these categories,

ideally one would want to incorporate the best ingredients of each category in a single

daily regimen to optimally treat skin aging.

Each individual may differ in which category of anti-aging they need most, yet in order to

prevent and reverse all the signs of skin aging, it is still optimal for all categories to be

covered by an anti-aging regimen.

It is important to familiarize yourself with which ingredients fall in each category, so that

you can incorporate several of each group into your skin regimen, or look for a product

that covers the various categories of anti-aging in a logical way.

Examples of key active ingredients shown to yield result in each category of anti-aging

include:

1. Peptides for anti-wrinkles,

2. Plant-derived polyphenols and bisabolol for anti-redness,

3. Amino acids for anti-brown discolorations,

4. Vitamins C, E and ferulic acid for anti-oxidant,

5. DNA repair molecules such as acetyl tyrosine and proline for DNA defense,

6. Resveratrol for cellular restore, bark extract or phoretin for damage reversal,

7. Helianthus annuus and Ilex paraguensis extracts for aging repair,

8. Dimethicone for barrier repair, glycerin and soy lecithin for emollients,

9. Hyaluronic acid for boosting skin thickness, and mushroom extracts and

10. Sodium lactate for smoothening abnormal texture.

In sum, the field of anti-aging now has validated classification systems for the various

categories of skin aging and for the plethora of anti-aging ingredients.

This is so that we can assess and determine which anti-aging actives we want in our

medicine cabinet and to make certain that we cover the various categories of anti-aging in

our daily regimen.

10 ALL ABOUT ANTI-AGING

With this scientific basis, we may now intelligently assess anti-aging products for their

ability to comprehensively cover all the various categories of skin aging and include the

various categories of anti-aging ingredients available.

Finally, these comprehensive, validated classification and grading scales provide a

framework for solving the anti-aging conundrum with a system for categorizing skin

aging and classifying anti-aging actives to make sure you cover all your skin's anti-aging

needs.

3 ANTI-AGING TRAPS TO AVOID AND

LOOK 10 YEARS YOUNGER

If you are trying to look 10 years younger or more,

there is no shortage of information or products to

help you achieve your goal.

Nowadays, it seems everywhere you turn there is

some new product or cosmetic procedure claiming

to remove wrinkles, restore elasticity, bring back

radiance etc.

The list goes on and on.

But before you try that breakthrough product or

visit that hot new medical day spa there are 3 anti-

aging traps you need to know about.

Fall into one of these, and no matter what

products you are using, you could be undermining

your results without even knowing it.

Anti-Aging Trap 1 - No Passion for Anti-Aging or

Complete Acceptance of the Aging Process

Passion for anti-aging? You might ask. Of course I have passion for anti-aging. Why do you think I spend hundreds of dollars on products and procedures? Let's make one thing clear.

Passion for anti-aging and looking 10 years younger has nothing to do with how many

products you buy or how many visits you schedule with your plastic surgeon.

Passion for anti-aging starts in the brain:

For example every morning when I wake up, the first thing on my mind is anti-aging.

I am constantly researching, studying, putting test ideas into practice to stay and feel

younger and more vibrant.

I thoroughly enjoy it and a day doesn't go by without me thinking about anti-aging and

trying to look 10 years younger.

Now I know everyone doesn't or even can't wake up with anti-aging on the brain. There

are kids to get off to school, jobs to go to, bills to pay; the list goes on and on.

11

12 ALL ABOUT ANTI-AGING

But to really achieve any level of anti-aging, you do have to have some passion for it.

Why?

Because passion for anything, whether it be looking 10 years younger, losing weight, or

getting a promotion starts in the brain.

The moment you set your mind to achieve something, your brain immediately goes into

overdrive coming up with ideas to bring this plan to fruition.

Passion is the fuel which drives this process. The more passionate you are about an idea,

the higher the probability that you will achieve what you desire.

Unfortunately, anti-aging or trying to look 10 years younger or more quickly loses

momentum.

This is because many people feel there are only a few options to truly stay youthful. Once

they start to age, they believe the only options they have are plastic surgery or Botox.

That brings us to the next anti-aging trap:

Anti-Aging Trap 2 - Overloading On Plastic Surgery And Cosmetic Procedures

I recently met a 48 year old woman who was obviously addicted to plastic surgery. Her

face was smooth, taut and unlined.

She had no wrinkles on her forehead, around her eyes or around her mouth.

But guess what?

She didn't look 10 years younger. She looked like a 48 year old woman that had a lot of

work done.

Her face was mask-like, even when she smiled.

You can see this look on a lot of celebrities (Courtney Cox, Nicole Kidman, Joan Rivers).

Maybe that's why some people think it is the best way to fight the aging process. People

love to emulate their favourite stars.

Now I'm not against plastic surgery. Compared to only 10 years ago, plastic and cosmetic

surgery has come a long way in helping people everywhere to look and feel younger.

And perhaps that's the problem.

Because it has become so much more affordable it is now the quick fix instead of the last

resort.

Too much plastic surgery or cosmetic procedures will not make you look 10 years

younger. It will however make you look strange, unnatural and like a plastic surgery

junkie.

3 Anti-Aging Traps To Avoid And Look 10 Years Younger 13

Anti-Aging Trap 3 - Setting the Bar Too Low

When I ask women what they really want to achieve from all the effort they put into

staying youthful, more often than not most of them respond with the following:

I want to look good for my age.

The only way I know how to respond to this statement is Why?

If you truly want to look good for your age, no matter if it's 30, 40 or 50+ then I say go for

it.

You could probably achieve your goal in a matter of months if you haven't done so

already. But know this:

You will never go to a college sporting event and be mistaken for a coed by 4 different

students.

You won't be able to wear a mini skirt and look age appropriate.

Sorry to use that phrase. I actually despise it but that's a whole other article. You will

never go for a jog and have 3 seventeen year olds on scooters ask what college you go to.

Why?

Because looking good for your age is setting the bar way too low.

Sure you look good, but only for your age. It's the equivalent of the comment: You throw pretty good for a girl.

You want to look good period. You want to look so good that no one can say you look good

for your age because no one can tell how old you are.

I know plenty of women aged 40+ who can and have been mistaken for a college coed.

Who still have the ability to pull off a mini and flip flops. And who have 17 year old boys

waving to them from their motorcycles and scooters

Now that we discussed the 3 Anti-Aging Traps and how easy they are to fall into, let's talk

about the good news.

Look at the following quote:

Anti-Aging to us is a lifestyle. My wife and I decided a long time ago that we weren't going to age. We were going to eat right, constantly try new things, take care of our bodies. But most importantly, we set our mind to it and I guess we're doing all right. -From A 52 Year Old Man And His 46 Year Old Wife

14 ALL ABOUT ANTI-AGING

This quote came from a married couple I recently met who I had guessed to be in their

mid-30s.

The man confessed to me that he was actually 52 years old and his wife was 46. I was

pretty stunned.

Being as obsessed as I am with anti-aging, I can usually guess peoples' ages pretty well.

So this really threw me for a loop.

This couple looked, walked and talked like they were 35 years old. And a young 35 at that.

It was truly amazing and I couldn't stop looking at them.

So how were they able to look at least 10 to 15 years younger? Is it possible that they had

some plastic surgery?

They were very open and honest about their beauty regimen and upkeep. They told me

they have had absolutely no Botox and no plastic surgery.

They both have skin peels every 6 months to rejuvenate their skin. They eat no processed

food whatsoever and a lot of fresh fruit and vegetables.

They exercise 5 days a week, stretch extensively to stay flexible and agile and keep

abreast of new innovations in the anti-aging industry.

Everything they told me was fascinating and their plan was obviously working for them.

But I kept going back to their original quote: My wife and I decided that we weren't going to age.

That small statement is one of the key reasons why they are able to stay so vibrant and

young looking.

In their mind, they wouldn't accept the aging process and when they had that affirmation

set firmly in their brain that set in motion a life-long plan of fighting aging at every turn.

Once that affirmation was solidly in place, everything else that followed became second

nature to them.

And that is the true key to anti-aging and staying young and vital.

Believing with absolute certainty that you can. So stay passionate about anti-aging, don't

overload on cosmetic and plastic surgery and set that bar way up high.

When you avoid these anti-aging traps, you'll be surprised how quickly your body and

mind respond.

You may just wake up a couple months from now looking 10 years younger.

ANTI-AGING SKIN CARE PRODUCTS

FAQS

When people first start looking for an anti-aging skin care product, they tend to have the

same kind of general questions.

And answers are necessary for these questions in order to make an educational choice of

which skin care products you want to get.

This article will answer the who, what, where, when, and why about anti-aging skin care

products.

1. Who Are Anti-Aging Skin Care Products For?

Anti-aging skin care products are for both men and women who want to hold off, or

eliminate, the natural signs of the aging process.

This includes wrinkles, fine lines, blemishes, eye circles, cracked skin, sagging skin, crow's

feet, rough skin, and any of the like.

These are all natural signs of aging, and they happen to all of us. However, using anti-

aging skin care products can prevent these signs from showing up too early in life.

What qualifies as an anti-aging skin care product?

16

3 Anti-Aging Traps To Avoid And Look 10 Years Younger 17

An anti-aging skin care product contains ingredients that prevent signs of aging from

appearing.

Specifically, every anti-aging skin care product should contain ingredients that target the

three main causes of aging.

These are

A. Loss Of Collagen And Elastin,

B. Low Levels Of Hyaluronic Acid And

C. Damage Caused By Free Radicals.

An anti-aging skin care product should also contain plenty of moisturizers like vitamin B5

and capuacu butter to keep your skin hydrated and protected from UV rays from the sun

and antioxidants like manuka honey and natural vitamin E to protect your skin cells from

free radical damage.

Natural oils that your skin loses throughout the day need to be replenished as well.

Good oils that are compatible with your skin' natural oils are avocado oil, babassu, and

jojoba oil.

2. Where Is The Best Place To Get Anti-Aging Skin Care Products?

The best place to get anti-aging skin care products is on the Internet. This way, you can do the proper research on a product before you purchase it.

Read each product's website you're thinking of getting and make sure they use effective

amounts of the right ingredients if you want to see great results.

Going to your local drug store may be the worst place to go. These products are made of

cheap ingredients, which their price reflects.

At these places, you're often forced to decide on a product based on the wrong reasons,

like it's packaging, what it says on the labels, or even worse, it's price tag.

Price is important and all, but just remember that you get what you pay for.

When should you start using anti-aging skin care products?

Typically, most people decide to start using anti-aging skin care products when they start

to see aging signs like wrinkles and fine lines.

However, it's a better idea to start using these products before you start seeing signs of

aging.

This way, they'll never occur in the first place.

18 ALL ABOUT ANTI-AGING

People generally start using anti-aging skin care products between the ages of 30-35. But

depending on the kind of lifestyle you live (diet, exercise, smoking, etc.) you may see aging

signs earlier.

If aging signs appear earlier for you, start using an effective anti-aging cream or lotion

right away.

3. Why Should I Use An Anti-Aging Skin Care Product?

Quite frankly, anti-aging skin care products are the easiest way to minimize visual signs

of aging.

Period.

Although it's important to keep a healthy diet, drink lots of water, get plenty of exercise,

protect yourself from the sun, etc.

Anti-aging skin care products are the closest thing to a quick fix you're going to get.

Let's face it

Having beautiful, youthful skin truly leaves a permanent impression on everyone you

meet.

Tighter, youthful skin leads to higher self-confidence; it's as simple as that.

Using an effective anti-aging skin care product can eliminate the signs of aging so when you look in the mirror every morning, you see the young looking person that you still feel

you are.
