Aging Well,<br />
Inside & Out<br />
You know those people, the ones who look “young” for<br />
their age. They still get carded when buying wine at 45.<br />
They’re met with disbelief when they request a senior<br />
discount. Even with gray hair and fine lines, some people<br />
just exude youthfulness. Maybe you’re one of them!<br />
I recently went to see a chiropractor who specializes<br />
in supplements and nutrition. I hadn’t been there in about<br />
5 years. I was shocked to see that she hadn’t aged at all—in<br />
fact, she looked younger. I asked her how she does it.<br />
“Functional medicine, plain and simple,” she said. This<br />
approach to health focuses on the body as a whole, with<br />
an emphasis on strengthening organs through holistic<br />
medicine and nutrition. This is the same premise behind<br />
“Live Long and Prosper” on p. 34. We’ve highlighted the<br />
top 10 anti-aging supplements, each of which works to<br />
fortify different systems in the body.<br />
The anti-aging plan that my chiropractor recommended<br />
includes a low-histamine diet and a customized supplement<br />
regimen featuring curcumin, magnesium glycinate, fish<br />
oils (DHA), folic acid, chaste tree berry, amla (read more<br />
about this amazing herb on p. 14), and other nutrients. I can<br />
feel a difference after just a few days. I haven’t made the<br />
switch to a low-histamine diet just yet—I’ll report back on<br />
this! In the meantime, read up on high-histamine foods at<br />
betternutrition.com.<br />
So what’s the secret to aging well? It’s like charisma—<br />
there’s not any one thing you can point to that defines or<br />
explains it. It’s a combination of characteristics. But while<br />
you may or may not be able to do anything about your<br />
charisma score, you can change how your body ages, from<br />
the inside and out.<br />
If you have a supplement question or want to share<br />
your approach to anti-aging, email me at the address below.<br />
I’d love to hear from you!<br />
