[Video] Can You Age Backwards?

As I have gotten older, I have begun to get very interested in the aging process.

What causes aging? Why do our bodies start to break down and wear out over time, when all of our cells are renewed on an ongoing basis?

Every cell in your body is replaced every 7-10 years, so why then don't we live forever? Why do we experience symptoms of aging like wrinkles, gray hair, memory loss, bone weakness, etc., and why are these symptoms earlier and more pronounced in some people than others?

The answer is rather complicated, but some evidence seems to suggest that while getting chronologically older is inevitable, the aging process actually is not. The fascinating video below discusses the root cause of aging, and how to prevent or even reverse these symptoms in our own bodies, so that we can feel vital and youthful no matter what age we are.

The symptoms we think of as "normal" results of aging are actually not as normal as most of us believe, according to some researchers. In the video below, Functional Medicine doctor Mark Hyman interviews Dave Asprey, the author of Super Human: The Bulletproof Plan to Age Backward and Maybe Even Live Forever, and one of the leading experts on "biohacking" - a term referring to our ability to actually change our biology and body chemistry to energize and enhance the health of both our bodies and brains using scientific biological principles.

Watch the video to learn about:

• How to avoid (or at least postpone) the Four Killers that most of us will die from.
  
• Zombie cells, cellular straight jackets, and other pillars of aging
• How the build up of extracellular and intra-cellular junk promotes aging
• The benefits of fasting for your health and longevity
• How much movement and exercise do you really need?
• The importance of sleep as it relates to longevity
• The role of environmental toxins and heavy metals in aging
• How your mitochondrial health is affected by your relationships
• And more!

Let's face it: none of us will live forever. But wouldn't it be nice to maximize our life spans, while minimizing the unpleasant symptoms of aging that we all dread? Or, as they say in the video, "Die young, as old as possible!"
Science is beginning to realize that the way we age doesn't have to be so unpleasant after all. I look forward to seeing more advancements in this field of study as I get older! 

In the meantime, next week will be our holiday break, so I will not be posting, but I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and will be back in 2020 with more cutting-edge info on living a healthy, happy, and holistically balanced life!
