The 7 Ways to Slow Aging

1. Don’t ever smoke. Smoking is not only hazardous to your lungs and cardiovascular health, but is also found to increase rate of telomere shortening <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16507852> , which can lead to dysfunction and instability of chromosomes.
2. De-stress your life. The more stress you have in your life, the greater risk <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15574496>  of increasing the rate of telomere shortening and aging more quickly. How to slow it down? As simple as it might sound, the key is to always have a positive outlook <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19111922>  on life. Plus, enjoy a vacation once in a while, enjoy friends and social activities, receive plenty of sleep every night, and try meditation <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19735238> .
3. Exercise regularly. By increasing amounts of physical activity, especially intense physical activity, research <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19948976>  shows you could keep your telomeres long and healthy, even buffering <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20520771>  the effects of chronic stress.
4. Get your antioxidants daily. When high amounts of free radicals attack cells (causing oxidative stress <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12114022> ), they leave no stone unturned making chromosomes and their telomeres vulnerable to shortening. You can best protect yourself by getting plenty of antioxidants in your diet from eating fruits and vegetables daily and supplements.
5. Never go without fish oil. Fish oil contains long-chain omega-3 fatty acids that are well-known for being healthy to the heart, but recent evidence <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20085953>  has shown that increasing amounts in the diet is associated also with slowing telomere shortening over time. You can get enough by eating fish a couple of times per week and by supplementing with long-chain omega-3s daily.
6. Get enough of the “sunshine vitamin.” Several discoveries have made vitamin D the most popular nutrient of the decade because of its many benefits including an association <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20376837>  with longer telomere length. You can make sure you’re getting enough by practicing safe sun exposure and supplementing with vitamin D daily.
7. Practice safe weight loss. Maintaining a healthy weight is important to keep telomeres long. Incorporating Isagenix products into your weight-loss program such as cleansing and replacing meals with IsaLean shakes and bars is helpful for losing weight and slowing telomere shortening.
