Astragalus

Thursday, September 25th, 2008

An herbaceous perennial plant of the pea family, astragalus is most commonly used for its longevity properties, its immunostimulatory activity and its seemingly remarkable ability of restoring suppressed immune systems activities. The most remarkable property of the Astragaloside IV molecule is its ability to stimulate the production of telemerase, the enzyme that protects and promotes cell telemeres. This is why this rare and expensive compound was selected as the principal ingredient in Bio Quench. These telemeres are thought to be the ultimate limit on cell life span. Used to strengthen the immune system over time, build resistance to illnesses, astragalus may be a useful complementary treatment during chemotherapy, immune deficiency syndromes and radiation therapy. For providing additional short term immunity boost, echinacea may be used with astragalus.

Benefits of Red Wine

Monday, September 15th, 2008

One should not stay away from red wine just because of it having alcohol in it. Many studies have revealed that people who consume red wine regularly have lesser health problems. This theory owes its existence to the fact that red wine is made from an antioxidant-rich fruit. Another set of studies have revealed that it is mainly the antioxidant resveratrol. The function of resveratrol in plants include protection from stress and injuries, ultra-violet irritation and some diseases like infection and fungus. Owing to the long process and the long period of fermentation of grapes in making red wine, resveratrol is present in a finished red wine bottle at a very high level.

Calorie Restriction for Longevity

Sunday, September 14th, 2008

Calorie restriction is an approach which involves the consumption of calories by about 30 percent lower than usual, and still maintaining the normal level of minerals, vitamins and the required nutrients. Apart from the genetic manipulations, it can be said that calorie restriction is the only way to adopt for extension of life. A lot of research was been done on the effects that diets have on the body and the results have finally showed up. Few of the studies have indicated that the ageing rate is not fixed at a certain level, and manipulations can be very well done there.

Longevity Supplements for a Long Life

Saturday, September 13th, 2008

We are eager and excited to expand the longevity of our health, as a substitute of worrying as far as the superiority of our existence is concerned. This is the existence that we are provided with or self fashioned. One subject that evolutionary environmentalists conjecture on is the reason why a number of organisms live unsurprisingly longer when compared to others. Before now, maximum human natural life is at the upper conclusion of longevity in the midst of mammals. Evolutionary environmentalists inquire if there is any explanation to believe that maximum human natural life could be increased. The gradual inquiry by investigators on aging is why not. This has been prompted by fresh ideas and breakthroughs in investigation.

Anti Aging with Resveratrol

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

The word antioxidant has earned the undeclared status of one of the most important words of this age and will enjoy the same status in future, too. As we look around us, the market seems to be shrouded with supplements having antioxidant properties. More and more men and women are changing their usual food habit to ones having antioxidant benefits. Indeed they are important, especially when it comes to the issue of fighting against the signs of ageing. We all are aware of the fact that unbound radicals cause the marks of age to appear; these radicals are present in the polluters of air. They also enter our body through canned foods or fast foods, which are being consumed more and more nowadays, as a result of our unhealthy eating habits.
