Stress is the number one cause of aging. Good diet, low stress and proper care of your skin should help slow down the process of aging.I found a website that helped me to understand how to care for myself. You should check it out too.Good luck.
Free radical attack is considered to be main reason behind aging and related degenerative ailments like cancer, diabetes, dementia etc. If we can successfully ward of free radical attack on our body cells we can delay aging considerably. Free radicals are unstable molecules that are formed as a part of natural body metabolism process and are also caused due to external factors like smoke, pollution certain chemicals, stress etc.
These unpaired molecules attack the healthy cells and steal their electrons.
Antioxidants are the effective antidote against free radicals and vitamins and minerals are normally capable of scavenging these free radicals. So please take plenty of vitamins and minerals. Vitamins like A, C and E are most powerful free radical scavengers. Minerals act as catalyst in the Vitamin assimilation process and without minerals vitamins are not of any use.
There is however one problem that has to be looked into even if you take plenty of vitamins and minerals. As we grow older the cell walls become thick and it becomes increasingly difficult for the minerals and vitamins to penetrate the cell walls and reach inside. It means that whatever be the amount of minerals we consume it does not reach deep inside the cell where they are really required. In fact an average American takes very high amount of Vitamin and mineral supplements.
In this context certain plant based acids like Fulvic Acid are coming into prominence. Fulvic acid is a type of humic acid formed due to decay of plants. It was found that Fulvic acid has the ability to soften the cell walls and transport the minerals through the cell walls easily. So along with vitamin and mineral supplements you can also take fulvic acid supplements.
