Free radicals are the culprits for advanced aging. They are seen to specifically attack the mitochondria, the power plant of our cells. Studies have shown that on a calorie-restricted diet the accumulation of free radicals in the body is delayed and the rate of human metabolism is decreased. As a result, the human life span could be extended significantly. There is no effective anti-aging program without recognizing that almost all vital hormone levels tend to drop over time.
While diet is very important, there are many natural herbs and nutrients that can be introduced to the body to help slow down the process of aging. If we are to live long enough to take advantage of new breakthrough discoveries such as stem cells, which may be able to be transformed into specialized cells and tissues to treat diseases and reverse aging, it is critical that we protect ourselves against the risks of dying from age-related diseases today.
