Anti-Aging Supplements for Life Extension

Life Extension And Staying Youthful

It would take me many pages to give you all there is about life extension, or delaying the onset of aging, and here I’m going to simplify it into a shorter form.

As we grow older, we suffer major declines in the hormones that we need to stay healthy. The main ones being testament , estrogen, progesterone ,melatonin and growth hormone.  This one growth hormone, is by far the most important.

It has been shown that while the aging pituitary gland adequately produces Growth Hormone, it’s secretion from the pituitary is down-regulated with age. 49 specific amino acids and vitamins have been shown to help maintain a healthy pituitary.

Natural growth hormone causes the body to:

  • Burn body fat
  • Increase muscle mass and skin thickness
  • Improve immune function
  • Improve well being
  • Improve sleep
  • Increase metabolism
  • Thicker hair
  • Feeling of well being
  • Energy
  • Increase bone density

And overall, you reduce the probability that you will spend the last years of your life in a nursing home.

In addition Growth Hormone stimulates the growth of organs that shrink with age, i.e. the heart, liver, kidneys, and thyroid.

Growth hormone can also stimulate production of insulin-like growth factor (IGF), which helps to optimise communication between the immune, nervous, and hormonal systems.

The principle behind the use of multiple growth hormone releasing compounds at the same time is called ’stacking’. The theory behind this principle is that since many of these compounds operate to stimulate GH release by different mechanisms, taking them together will cause a larger release effect.

(I will cover GH more in depth if you request it)! Reply to this email and let me know if you would want a separate newsletter with more info?

3 Supplements To Raise Your Growth Hormone (GH) Levels

L’Arginine & L’Ornithine

L’ Arginine is an essential amino acid. L’Ornithine can also be used together since it metabolizes to L’Arginine in the body. L’Arginine is required for the body to synthesise nitric oxide, which enables the arterial system to retain its youthful elasticity. Nitric oxide also helps to produce endothelial relaxation factor, which is needed by the arterial system to expand and contract with each heartbeat.

L’Arginine/ L’Ornithine /L’ Glutamine have been shown to promote natural growth hormone (GH) release from the pituitary gland. GH promotes healthy anabolic metabolism throughout the body, helping maintain protein synthesis within cells.

GH release is greater when releasers are taken on an empty stomach before exercise, awaking or at bedtime.

GH release may be improved if you take 1/2 to 1 gram of Pantothenic acid at the same time.

Weight Loss Is Easy With Regular Meals

Filed under: Nutrition, weight loss — Tags: , , — nbarrett @ 12:02 pm

With Summer fast approaching we all want to lose an extra few pounds… WE CAN!

Replace your morning oatmeal with an apple.  That will help use your stored fat for energy. Also make sure to get your protein at breakfast and throughout the day as this will speed up your metabolism and say goodbye to those extra pounds.

Keep away from the high-glycemic carbs like cereals- white rice, breads and potatoes as much as possible. These foods will increase your Cortisol levels and lower your Serotonin causing you to want to eat more of them.

Instead for lunch eat brown rice or increase your salads/ vegetables. Drink at least 100 oz. of spring water per day as this metabolizes fat and keeps hunger in check.

A great low glycemic/sodium snack is the Greens+ high protein bar, giving you energy and stabilizing hunger. They are available for the best price I could find at the netrition website.

I want to thank you all for being awesome and know that you will have the leanest/fitest Summer yet!
