What are good natural supplements for overall health and anti-aging that are available at wholefoods/drugstore?
I am 26 years old and currently take:2000mg primrose oil, psyllium husk, bromelain.
What other supplements should I incorporate into my regimine to target anti-aging, metabolism, etc? What are some good anti-oxidents that are not too costly, available at whole foods store and that do not give the ‘jitters’?
We are a health concious family and do what we can with a busy schedule. We also walk 2-4 miles 4 times a week and I work out.
What should I add? Considered the NanoPak from Nuskin but it seems very over-priced and not exactly natural. Thanks!

Look up the antioxidant, Glutathione (GSH) it is the body’s master antioxidant. It is a small protein produced naturally in our cells. It functions both as an antioxidant and an antitoxin and is a major defense system against illness and aging. Our glutathione level actually indicates our state of health and can predict longevity.
Glutathione has been shown to slow down the aging process, detoxify and improve liver function, and strengthen the immune system. Glutathione also works to help improve mental functions, increase energy, improve concentration, permit increased exercise, improve heart and lung function, and fights inflammation. GSH plays a principle role in creating energy and helping your body utilize oxygen. Abundant levels allow your body to recover faster, following strenuous exercise and neutralize free radical production that occurs naturally from exercising. GSH can serve as a keystone to your athletic success. I am 60 years young, but my body has been through hell wounded 3 times, hit by a car at 24, had a piece of metal fall 15 stories and hit me in my lower back while working as a bricklayer, needless to say my body has been through hell, but 7 months ago I started taking MaxGXL by the fifth week, no more siathic nerve pain, gone. No more lower back pain, gone. Wish I would have had something like MaxGXL at your age. It truly works, check it out for yourself you will not be disappointedd.
Glutathione is an essential amino acid, which is part of a protein complex, by the way. The best source is from a bio-available whey protein isolate. I don’t know of a high quality that is found in local stores though, only from the internet.
Of course if you eat several servings of colorful fruits and vegetables, you’ll be doing a lot. Also consider sprouts. Sprouts are nutritionally dense foods, particualarly good for digestive enzymes. If your body can’t absorb it, it does you little good.
There are supplements made from superfoods (again nutrient dense) of all sorts. I can’t say how good the quality is product to product. I get an acai product through the internet that is dense in anti-oxidants and phytonutrients. Maybe you can get one that is beneficial in the store.
Hi There,
Herbs such as Panax ginseng, Sutherlandia frutescens & Schisandra chinensis help the body adjust any irregular systems, promote systemic prioritization of any imbalances in the body, promote equilibrium as the body deals with the natural process of aging & support the body’s normal resistance to physical, chemical, or biological stressors.

Herbs such as Aspalathus linearis (Rooibos), Grape seed extract & Camellia sinensis (Green tea) on the other hand are strong anti-oxidants that support the cell integrity of each cell in the body, discourage common aging due to lifestyle factors, encourage the body’s ability to counteract the effects of oxidization on cells & encourage overall systemic health and support of the immune system.
