Signs of Aging - 40 BioMarkers
And how to reverse them...
This is not an exhaustive list, and is in no particular order.
1. Muscle mass decreases. (muscle/weight/height Body Mass Index Increases)
2. Fat increases as a percentage of body weight.
3. Strength, energy and speed of the body decreases.
4. Base Metabolic Rate (metabolism) decreases.
5. Aerobic Capacity, the capacity to process oxygen, decreases. Red blood cells as a percentage of total blood volume (hematocrit) decreases until the average at age 90 is what is considered to be "anemia" at age 40.
6. Body cells become resistant to insulin.
7. LDL Cholesterol ("bad" cholesterol) and triglicerides increase, and HDL Cholesterol ("good" cholesterol) falls.
8. Blood pressure increases.
9. Bone mineral density decreases.
10. Density of calcium in circulatory system increases.
11. Kidney functions decrease.
12. We lose neurons in our brain. This leads to Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Senile Dementia.
13. The vagus nerve, the longest nerve in our body, deteriorates... and all the nervous system surely also deteriorates.
14. Growth Hormone secretion drops.
15. Testosterone in men, and estrogen and progesterone in women, drops.
16. Sexual desire drops.
17. Thyroid (a hormone which affects metabolism) drops.
18. melatonine (a hormone which regulates the body clock) drops.
19. DHEA (a hormone precursor to testosterone and estrogen) drops.
20. EPO, (erythropoyetin, a hormone which stimulates the production of new red blood cells) drops.
21. Estradiol, a female hormone, increases in men.
22. Cortisol, "the Death Hormone," increases.
23. Good enzymes (Super Oxidase Dimutase, etc.) drop.
24. A bad enzyme, MAO-B increase in the brain. MAO-B destroys neurons that produce dopamine, which is a neuro-transmitter.
25. Aromatase enzyme, a bad enzyme, increases. Aromatase converts testosterone to estrogen in men, which deprives him of libido.
26. The thickness of skin decreases, resulting in more wrinkles.
27. Prolactin, a female hormone, increases in the body of a male, presumably depriving him of some sexual libido.
28. Water proportion in the body and in the skin, drops. This results (among other things) in dryer skin, and more wrinkles.
29. Sense of hearing drops.
30. Sense of taste drops... "everything tastes the same"
31. Sense of vision, especially capacity to read small letters in low light, decreases.
32. Hair falls and loses its color (it becomes white).
33. The thymus gland, the master of the immune system, shrinks and atrophys, thus lessening our immune system.
34. Our liver, brain, and other critical organs shrink in size, thus affecting their functions.
35. Lipofuscine ("liver spots") accumulates in our hands and our brains. This snuffs out many neurons in our brain.
36. The circulatory system deteriorates in length and width.
37. The velocity of blood flow decreases.
38. Inflammation increases in our body.
39. "Deep sleep" becomes more scarce and less profound.
40. Digestion becomes slower and less complete.
41. The retina of the eye becomes thinner, in many cases detaching.
42. The macula of the eye loses some of its shape after age 40, and causes distorted vision.
43. Micro-vessels in the eye pop, covering the retina, causing partial loss of vision, or complete blindness.
44. Night-vision decreases.
45. Melanocytes continually release small amounts of the brown- black pigment called melanin into the skin. Exposure to sunlight signals the melanocytes to produce more melanin. Melanin determines our normal skin color and attempts to protect our skin from severe sun damage. As we age, our melanocytes begin to function less effectively. The density of active melanocytes in the skin is reduced by 10% to 20% every 10 years, starting in our late 30's and 40's. Melanocytes are also responsible for hair color, so their loss explains why 50% of people are gray by age 50.
Discussion
The good news is that for everything that can happen, for each sign of aging there is a cause, and there is a natural approach to slow down or stop the sign of aging completely, or even reverse the course.
1. Muscle mass decreases... on the average about 7 lbs. per decade... this loss accelerates after age 45.
And what to do about it: Do exercises to increase muscle mass, or to decrease the rate of loss. Take 1 teaspoon of glutathione 3 times a day, which will help to increase muscle mass. Eat more high chlorophyll foods to build blood and in turn builds muscles. Eliminate all animal protein and complex carbohydrate intake to reduce acidity that tenderizes and weakens muscle cell. Whole body or whole cell exercising with a rebounder and/or whole body vibrational machine will help to remove acids from the tissues and prevent and/or reverse tissue wasting.
Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.
2. Fat percentage increases from 25% to more than 40%.
And what to do about it: Eat less sugar and protein in your diet which causes the body to retain fat to buffer the excess acids. Eliminate undigested proteins in the 9 yards of the intestines with oral alimentary canal cleaners, enemas and colonic irrigation. Take 2 to 3 teaspoons of magnesium oxide to break-up undigested animal proteins, sticky acids from complex carbohydrates and acid bound mucous.
3. Body strength, energy, and speed decreases.
And what to do about it: Do low impact and static attraction exercises. Try to EAT much more chlorophyll rich foods and eat 60 grams of polyunsaturated fats.
4. Base Metabolic Rate (Metabolism) decreases. The thyroid gland produces less hormone.
And what to do about it: Eliminate all protein and complex carbohydrates, eat more alkaline electron rich, high water content and high chlorophyll content foods and drinks. Start taking 1 to 2 teaspoons of pHour salts containing sodium, magnesium, potassium and calcium. Spray the pHlavor salt in your mouth every hour or when you feel a decrease in energy.
5. Aerobic capacity (capacity to process oxygen) decreases.
And what to do about it: Do low impact aerobic exercises such as rebounding, walking, jogging, and whole body vibration. Clear the bowels of any undigested animal and dairy products. Drink 1 tablespoon of liquid chlorophyll every hour to help build the blood.
6. Body cells lose sensitivity to insulin.
And what to do about it: Avoid all sugars (natural sugars like honey or stevia) and complex carbohydrates in your diet, increase healthy fats in your diet from avocado, olive, hemp, pumpkin, sesame, etc., and eliminate all protein in your diet. If you are overweight, try to lose weight through the pH Miracle alkaline diet and low impact and static attraction exercise. Do exercises to increase muscle mass and eliminate acids, which will help to lower high insulin levels. As you eliminate acidity and clear the bowels of undigested protein and carbohydrate, this will reverse your sensitivity to insulin. Take supplements with chromium and vanadium, which will help insulin to work better. Take supplemental sodium, magnesium, potassium, calcium, long chain fats, arginine, carnitine, and especially veggie based glutathione. Buy a meter to measure glucose levels after every meal, and adjust your diet to keep glucose between 70 and 105, (preferably 80 to 95.) As you begin to alkalize your body you will need less insulin (up to 75% in the first 72 hours).
7. LDL Cholesterol, (Low Density Lipoprotein, the "good cholesterol) increases when we are more acidic, and HDL Cholesterol (High Density Lipoprotein, the "good" cholesterol) decreases when we are eating acidic foods.
And what to do about it: Avoid animal protein, all sugar, and complex carbohydrate foods whenever you can. Take chromium, vanadium, Omega-3 from hemp seed, Omega-5 from pomegranate seed, amino acids such as glutathione, taurine, cysteine, carnitine. Eat alkaline, high chlorophyll fruits and vegetables with a high content of water and fiber. Never take injected growth hormone!
8. Blood pressure increases.
And what to do about it: Eat less animal protein, eat less foods with a high carbohydrate content (potatoes, rice, pasta, sweets, bread) and eat more foods with a high chlorophyll content. Avoid processed salt and eat mineral salts like pHlavor, take supplementary chromium, vanadium. magnesium, potassium, and calcium. Do whole body exercises.
9. Density of minerals in our bones decreases. Osteoporosis ("porous bones") is a nearly universal condition beginning after age 50.
And what to do about it: Eliminate all acidic foods and drinks which causes the release of calcium ions from the bones. Take supplemental vitamin D, sodium, calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, lysine, and boron. Take mineral salts like pHour salts and pHlavor salts.
10. Calcium increases in our blood, as it decreases in our bones. More calcium in the blood contributes to arthritis, and stiffness of the circulatory system.
And what to do about it: Eliminate all acidic foods and drinks as outlined in the pH Miracle for Weight Loss, including all proteins, sugars, complex carbohydrates, non-alkaline water. Start eating a diet rich in chlorophyll, alkaline water, mineral salts like pHour salts and pHlavor salts and liberal amounts of long chain fats from olive, hemp, flax and pomegranate,
11. Kidney function decreases. The kidneys are responsible for filtering and purifying our blood from dietary and metabolic acids. They also serve as a theromostat to determine if there is enough oxygen in our blood. If there are not enough red blood cells carrying oxygen, the kidneys are the organs that produce EPO, erythropoyetin. As kidney function decreases, they allow red blood cell level to decrease, which decreases oxygen to all parts of our body.
And what to do about it: If red blood cell count is lower than normal, it can be raised by increasing the diet in high chlorophyll foods and drinks. Eliminate all meat in your diet. Drink 1 quart or 1 liter of alkaline green drink per day. Take 1 teaspoon of glutathione 3 times a day.
12. We lose about 20% of the neurons in our brain. This may be due to a lack of oxygen, or to the increase in acid on our brain, or bad circulation, or red blood cell deficiency or probably to a combination of these factors. Improving any or all of them will decrease the loss of neurons.
And what to do about it: Nebulize 10 ml of glutathione 3 times a day. Glutathione will help to clean up lipofuscin, which contributes to the loss of brain cells. Hydration with green drinks will help to clean up the circulatory system. Lower cholesterol and triglicerides will help blood to flow better. Vaso-dilators such as sodium, magnesium, potassium and calcium bicarbonate with 3 to 4 liters of green drinks per day will help get food, oxygen, and water to your brain cells. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy will super-saturate blood with oxygen, which could help repair or save brain cells. Take supplements with glutathoine, cysteine, taurine, magnesium, zinc, choline, vitamins B-5, B-6, B-12, folic acid, calcium, and especially CLA from pomegranate seeds. Nebulize glutathione, cysteine, and taurine which will help to increase your circulatory system to the brain, which will help to keep your brain cells healthy.
13. The largest nerve in the body, the vagus nerve, which runs from the brain to the lower body, deteriorates from acidic exposure to dietary and metabolic acids. The vagus nerve is the main neural component of the parasympathetic nervous system, or that part of the nervous system that takes care of the functions that run more or less on "auto-pilot". These include heart rate, ability to have an erection in men, and digestion. As we age, the vagus nerve is affected and damaged by rising blood acid levels. This affects and can be measured in heart rate, the increase in erectile impotence in men, and digestive problems. A twenty-one year old non-diabetic's heart rate typically slows as much as 75 percent from inhaling to exhaling. This drops to about 30 percent for a seventy year old non-diabetic, or less (including "no variation") in a diabetic.
And what to do about it: The acid sugar causes the most damage to the circulatory system. Learn which foods increase your blood glucose levels, and avoid those foods (potatoes, bread, sweets, fruits, rice, pasta, pizza, cookies, and cakes). Eliminate all animal proteins that will decrease uric, nitric, sulphuric and phosphoric acid.
14. Growth hormone secretion decreases about 70% from age 20 to 50, and another 70% from age 50 to 80. Testosterone decreases in males, estrogen decreases in females, thyroid decreases, DHEA, and melatonin decrease.
And what to do about it: Eat more mineral salts like pHlavor and pHour salts to decrease dietary and metabolic acids and increase the health of the endocrine system. When you have a healthy endocrine system which runs on electrons transported on the backbone of mineral salts then the glands will function normally. The evidence of a normally functioning gland is the secretion of hormones which are the acidic waste products of these glands. Some of these acidic glandular acidic waste products include melatonin, DHEA, pregnenolone, testosterone, Tri-Est, progesterone, thyroid, and growth hormone. The single most important nutrient for healthy endocrine glands are the ingestion of mineral salts, especially sodium. It is scientifically proven to reverse many of the signs of aging, including perhaps rejuvenating the thyroid gland itself.
15. Our bodies produce less of certain antioxidants, such as super-oxidase dimutase, which are important for buffering dietary acids or as our first natural defense against fermentation or tissue degeneration from dietary and metabolic acids.
And what to do about it: eat raw electron rich green fruits and vegetables, if necessary take natural mineral salt supplements, like pHour salts which contains sodium, magnesium, potassium and calcium bicarbonate. Take orally glutathione, which will help decrease the harmful dietary and metabolic acids that increase with age.
16. The thickness of our skin decreases... skin wrinkles.
And what to do about it: Take supplements of vitamin A, C, E, and glutathione. Eliminate all animal protein and complex carbohydrates. Increase your intake of green fruits and vegetables which are high in chlorophyll that will help build healthy blood and in turn help build healthy skin cells. The quality of the blood will determine the quality of the skin cells and the quality of the red blood cells as the primary stem cells will be determined by the quality and quantity of green fruits and vegetables eaten. Take at least 9 to 12 servings of green fruits or vegetables a day or supplement your diet with a concentration of fruits and vegetables called pHruits and pHolage. Take 1 to 2 capsules or pHruits and pHolage with alkaline water 3 times daily.
17. The proportion of water in tissues decreases... this causes dry skin and more wrinkles.
And what to do about it: Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of structured electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of concentrated pHruits and pHolage each day. This will help provide the naturally occurring antioxidants to prevent wrinkles and the electron rich hydration to prevent dry skin.
18. We hear less well, and see less well.
And what to do about it: take supplemental Glutathione, Vitamin A, and Vitamin E. Place 1 drop in each ear or each eye of colloidal copper, gold, silver and titanium. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.
19. Men more than women, some younger and some older, but all of us lose hair on our heads, and hair turns white.
And what to do about it: Wash and condition your hair with Young pHorever Shampoo and Conditioner which will increase the circulatory system reaching the roots of the hairs, thus taking water, oxygen, and nutrients to the roots of your hair. This will avoid or postpone the loss of hair.
20. The thymus gland which is the master gland of the immune system, shrinks and atrophys with age, because of increased dietary and metabolic acids.
And what to do about it: Take supplements of Glutathione, CLA from pomogranatel, Vitamins A, and E. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage to help reverse the atrophy of the thymus gland.
21. The liver and brain and other vital organs shrink and become less effective because of dietary and metabolic acid. We lose up to 20% of the neurons in our brain, especially after age 45. Our liver also shrinks in size because of dietary and metabolic acid.
And what to do about it: Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage to help dilate the capillaries. This will help feed the brain and other organs with oxygen and nutrients, to prevent loss. Take glutathione, which will increase the circulatory system, thus getting nutrients and oxygen and water to all organs, thus preventing their loss.
22. Lipofuscin accumulates in our brains and snuffs out memory cells.
And what to do about it: Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.to help remove lipofuscin from the brain, or reduce the rate of accumulation, with a doctor's supervision. Take glutathione, which will increase the size and vigor of the circulatory system, thus helping to keep the garbage moving out.
23. The circulatory system deteriorates. We are born with a perfectly clean and beautifully flexible circulatory system reaching everywhere. But by the time we are 50 years old, if you would see a cross-section of your veins and arteries, and depending upon how much you have abused your body with sugar, transfat foods, cigarrettes and alcohol etc, they are looking like a clogged up sewer. In addition to cholesterol bound acid, they are clogged up with calcium bound acid, and veins and arteries have lost flexibility. This causes blood to circulate more slowly, and so less oxygen gets to all parts of the body, including the brain. Dietary and metabolic acid are at the root cause of loss of brain cells, and organ and gland atrophy.
And what to do about it: Avoid as much sugar and carbohydrates and proteine in your diet, as possible. Glutathione, cysteine, and taurine will help prevent free radical damage, which causes some of the problem. Omega-3, 5, 6 and 9 oil will help lower acidity, increasing the level of healthy red blood cells that will help repair the walls of the circulatory system, and bowel detoxification, oral alkaline chelation will might help to cleanse out micro-calcifications and some metals, thus improving circulation. Take glutathione which is proven to increase the length and breadth of the circulatory system. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage to help build red blood cells and to dilate the circulatory system, thus helping to increase the flow of blood to all parts of the body. Take chlorophyll and eat green fruits and vegetables to increase blood volume, the percentage of blood that is red blood cells, and hemoglobin which carries oxygen.
24. Toxic metals such as lead and mercury accumulate throughout our lives in our bodies. They stick to the brain and the spinal column, causing damage. This process probably starts soon after birth. After a certain level, lead will cause a decrease in learning. Mercury causes a decrease in learning and headaches and pain. Both probably also contribute to damage which might result in an increase in other terrible deseases.
And what to do about it: Get an analysis done to determine what levels of toxic metals are in your body. Of course, if you smoke, quit smoking. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage to help lower the levels of toxic metals. Dry heat sauna, lymphatic massage and exercise can also help lower some toxins. Avoid contact as much as possible with mercury and lead in paints, fungus creams, etc. The greatest amount of mercury is foolishly placed into your mouth by ignorant dentists, via so-called "silver" amalgams (if dentists would call them "mercury amalgams," like they should since they are more than 50% mercury, then they might lose business...) Utterly refuse any mercury amalgams in your mouth, and consider removing and replacing the ones you have!
25. Deep sleep deteriorates. The first stage of deterioration of sleep due to aging occurs between young adulthood (ages 16 to 25) and mid-life (35-50). Although the total amount of sleep remains constant as young adults move into mid-life, the proportion of slow wave or deep sleep decreases from nearly 20% of a normal night's sleep for those under 25, to less than five percent for those over 35. Growth hormone secretion, which occurs primarily during deep sleep, also declines by about 75%.
And what to do about it: Nebulize glutathione, which helps to increase deep sleep. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.
26. Certain acidic hormones such as cortisol increase with age. Cortisol is produced by the body in response to stress. It is a catabolic, ie, it destroys or ferments muscle. Cortisol is also known as "the Death hormone" under the theory that the human body will spontaneously end its own life at a certain age.
And what to do about it: Avoid anger and stress, and very strenuous exercise which will make the body produce cortisol. Take 1 teaspoon of glutathione 3 times a day, which helps you to remain optimistic and to resist stress. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.
27. A harmful acidic enzyme, aromatase, increases with age. Aromatase converts testosterone to estrogen, which are both acidic waste products of glandular function. In a man's body, this results in a loss of muscle and worsening skin tone, and a decrease in sex drive. In a woman's body, this results less acitivity of the glands that are vital for building muscle, and skin tone, and also sex drive. This is indicated by the reduction of the acidic waste hormone testosterone.
And what to do about it: Take phour salts, pHlavor salts, and glutathione, which are very effective anti-aromatase. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage. After 12 weeks you can take blood tests for hormone levels to determine that the hormone levels are now in healthy levels.
28. As we age, our melanocytes begin to function less effectively. The density of active melanocytes in the skin is reduced by 10% to 20% every 10 years, starting in our late 30's and 40's. Melanocytes are also responsible for hair color, so their loss explains why 50% of people are gray by age 50. When sunlight hits the skin, cells called melanocytes (located between the outer and middle layers of the skin) begin to take action. Melanocytes continually release small amounts of the brown- black pigment called melanin into the skin. Exposure to sunlight signals the melanocytes to produce more melanin. Melanin determines our normal skin color and attempts to protect our skin from severe sun damage.
And what to do about it: Take 1 teaspoon of glutathione 3 time a day and treat your hair with Young pHorever Shampoo and Conditioner, which can help to reverse loss of hair color in many people. Drink 3 to 4 liters or quarts of electron rich alkaline water with 1 to 2 scoops of pHruits and pHloage.
