It is
prudent to take the supplements and drug listed below. These articles of 4 pages
or less set out the
benefits, and their embedded links to medical journal articles confirm the
claims.
A supplement
is a chemical that is identical to one found in the
body, and is taken based upon evidence which supports its healthful benefits. A
drug is a chemical not natural to your body
or diet. As you get older your tissues
and organs have diminished functions; the bioactivity of the chemicals your
body makes are less; and the risk of age-related diseases increases. Because
the body’s reserves are less, the
benefits of exercise, healthful diet, and healthful supplements yield a greater
net improvement in health and the reduction in risk for age-related chronic and
acute conditions than the same 30 years prior.
For example a person who starts jogging at 60 for 10 years will on an
average benefit more than a person age 30 year for reduction in the risk of
heart attack and type 2 diabetes. One well-constructed study of
senior male runners found that the runners as a group postponed disability 8.7
years and “the control group had a 3.3 times higher rate of death” (81 versus
26 for the runners). Given the lower
bioactivity for seniors, in most cases a greater dose should be taken, unless
as with statins side effects increase with dose. The supplements below are safe,
thus a higher
accumulation in your body poses no risk, but rather increases their
benefits.
Big
pharma essential controls the production of information for
their financial benefit, thus they teach doctors through continuing education
class that they fund and in medical textbooks that supplements do not work, and
they do tobacco (deceptive) studies to “prove” it, or that they are dangerous
(as with estradiol, testosterone, and aspirin). Thus you must put out of mind
what is commonly
said by the corporate media and doctors on the healthful choices listed. I have
carefully sorted through the journal
articles (ignoring pharma’s tobacco science) for the best of the supplements.
For each article I have spent over 200 hours—the
embedded links provide journal evidence.
Though my search is incomplete, the short list of supplements is
sufficient, so that little additional benefit would be gained by adding more
supplements. The currently has the natural
sex hormones estradiol with
progesterone for women, for men testosterone,
CoQ10, vitamin C, fish oil as a source
of omega-3 fatty acids, and glutathione--in that order for benefits. Equally
important is the low carbohydrate diet which can
reverse insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.
To this added exercise that pushes you near to your cardio limit, and also
weight training. The only drug of major benefit
is aspirin at the 325 mg dose, or
more. It prevents cancer, atherosclerosis, and increase
cancer and heart attack survival. In our
corporate system profits dictates performance, thus perverse results are the
norm, and the amount of harm pharma does is tragic. Watch
the documentaries that expose their perversion of medicine and nutrition. The healthfully site is dedicated
to exposing the tobacco science and the healthful alternatives. You are not
too old to benefit from the
recommended changes; and their benefits increase with declining health.
