As we age, our need for certain vitamins and minerals increase due to a lower absorption rate from our digestive system.
By eating nutritionally, taking supplement, exercising, adopting a healthier lifestyle, being mentally active and having a positive attitude in life, you can defend your body and skin against the ravages of time.
Antioxidants act as scavengers to neutralise the highly reactive radicals. They prevent free radicals from attacking our healthy cells, thus protecting us from oxidative stress and diseases. Antioxidants also keep us looking young!
Mobility keeps the whole body working better. Strong legs and good balance mean easier daily tasks like dressing, cooking or playing with grandchildren. Weak muscles and brittle bones raise fall risk, but regular movement builds resilience.
It is important that we consume significant quantities of antioxidants – nutrients that help defend against free radical damage.
As we age, many bodily functions gradually begin to decline. The likelihood of developing a health problem also increases as we age. Take steps now to prevent health problems and slow down the aging process by eating an anti-inflammatory diet and supplements, avoiding excessive alcohol use and exercising regularly.
