Stay Younger Longer

WHEN IS YOUR BODY IN ITS PRIME?

Age 26, according to new research in Age: Journal of the American Aging Association, which found that elite runners clocked their best times during that sweet-spot year. "Muscle protein production steadily declines as we age, thus muscles naturally become somewhat weaker," explains John Porcari, Ph.D. So bottom line is to stay active!! If you do, your body ages at least 80% slower compared with those that are sedentary. Exercise for 30 minutes on most days and weight train two to three days a week!!!!

Dana, I am loving your blog. With all the supplements out there I am always so overwhelmed and end up not taking anything. What are the most important for metabolism and anti aging.

Well thank you for following my blog and I'm no expert but I would suggest Omega 3, multivitamin, and to increase metabolism among other benefits, I have heard L Arginine is great to take.... Google it and read on it too! A whey protein powder is great to help get more protein in your diet. It's best to get your protein from food but you can use the powder when in a bind or rushed! Nordic is a brand that has great omega 3 pills and they have the ones that have both the omegas and vitamin D which is great for the body too! I hope this helps!
