Top 5 Aging Factors

Oxidative stress

Oxidative stress releases free radicals that "burn" cells and tissues. That damages DNA and cells membranes and collagen-elastine fibres of the skin. It also triggers inflammation and is involved in most ageing associated disease.


Inflammation

Chronic inflammation damages every cell of the body. For instance, excess belly fat releases inflammation causing molecules. Continuous ow-level inflammation causes damage to everything from brain and arteries to skin.


Glycation

Proteins and fats become "glycated" when sugar molecules bond to them. Glycated molecules function abnormally and trigger oxidation and inflammation. That makes your wrinkles deeper and damages kidneys,eyes, and blood vessels. Diabetics suffer accelerated glycation which leads to premature ageing and death.


Methylation

The DNA within every cell requires constant reactions called methylation for maintenance and repair. It is the main process responsible for all biochemical reactions of a human body. Breaks in methylation results in DNA damage which fails to produce working proteins and can manifest as cancer, liver damage, fat gain and rapid ageing.


Digestive enzymes deficit

Digestive enzymes are essential to the body’s absorption of food. They speed up the breakdown of food in digestive track. One reason you pack on the fat pounds, feel sluggish and have bad skin is lying down inside your digestion. Your ageing body no longer produce sufficient amounts of the digestive enzymes needed for extraction essential nutrients from the food you eat.
