Look 20 Years Younger?! (It’s Possible)

It’s about to be a new year!
And if you’re like most of us, you’ll want to look and feel your best in 2019.
So you might join the gym… or try a new skin cream… or even go see your doc about more invasive ways to restore your youth.
But I’m here to tell you that you don’t have to do any of that in order to turn back the hands of time.
You see, your age isn’t really about how many candles are on your birthday cake – it’s about how healthy your cells, tissues, and organs are.
You can be 60 years old with the insides of an 80-year-old, or vice-versa.
If you learn to take care of your cells, tissues, organs, and immune system, it can literally make you AGE in REVERSE.
You can look and feel 10 or even 20 years younger.
Let me show you how easy it can be.
New research suggests that you can turn back your biological clock.
Here’s how to do it:
#1 Master Your Digestion: Your overall health is closely tied to the health of your gut, which houses much of your immune system. You can make your gut healthy when you throw away artificially processed foods. Focus on vegetables and good proteins for most of your meals. Make sure you are getting the probiotics your gut needs to be healthy.
#2 Become a Nutrition Expert: There is little chance (if you don’t supplement) that you are getting enough healthy vitamins and minerals. This is due to a combination of poor soil and food processing that strips away vital nutrients. You don’t have to take a million supplements, but you need a multivitamin to cover the basic vitamins and minerals. You need Omega-3 fish oil to give you the essential fatty acids. And you need to make sure you are getting phytonutrients–I like a superfood blends.
#3 Keep Your Blood Sugar Low: High blood sugar increases oxidative damage to your cells and creates misshapen proteins that lead to disease. Keep your blood sugar low by eating low-glycemic foods (foods that don’t cause spikes in blood sugar) and by getting nutrients like chromium and berberine to help your blood sugar control system work its best.
#4 Optimize your Cellular Energy: To produce energy, your body needs certain nutrients. The mitochondria (the powerhouse of the cell) need B vitamins, CoQ10, and other nutrients to function effectively. That’s why lots of people get an energy boost when they start taking B vitamins or CoQ10.
#5 Take Care of Your Skin: You men need to do this too! The principle missing ingredients for healthy skin and joints is collagen and essential fatty acids. Don’t avoid the sun, you need it, but don’t spend too much time in direct sunlight.
Health and Happiness,
