Book Description
Discover Over 100 Anti-Aging Tips, Tricks & Secrets That Help Women 40+ Feel and Look Years Younger The Aging Games is an information packed 256-page Guide that reveals some of the most effective and powerful anti-aging 'hacks' in the areas of beauty, weight loss, nutrition, skin care, hair and teeth, sleep, and more. When it comes to anti-aging everyone's mind automatically jumps to Botox, plastic surgery or expensive cosmetics. But true anti-aging will not only turn the time back on your face but your whole body by improving your overall health and extending your lifespan. My mission is to bring you back to the core fundamentals and principles of good health by following common sense that is not always common knowledge. In fact, it is often the very opposite of mainstream dogma or commercial interests. I will reveal some secrets the beauty industry doesn't want you to know! Just as your body has its own self-healing mechanism, it also comes with its own anti-aging mechanism. For almost 3 decades now I've been involved in the natural health field. Along the way, I've been fortunate to uncover and discover a multitude of natural and effective ways to look and feel years younger - even as we mature past the age of 40. Now I've put over 100 of my favorite and most naturally effective tips, tricks and hacks for anti-aging into one very user-friendly guide I've called, The Aging Games: How to Come Out a Winner. These tips fall under a wide variety of health and beauty topics that range from skin care, weight loss, improved sleep, beauty treatments, nutrition and much more. These specific tips, tricks and anti-aging 'hacks' that I've both discovered and used myself with great success are not only easy to implement at home, but implementing just a few of these tips on a consistent basis can yield some very remarkable results. A Quick Sneak Peek of What You'll Discover Inside The Aging Games Program How to naturally (and easily) "reset" your own biological clock from the inside out. This will slow the aging process and allow you to look and feel years younger! Find out the most powerful and effective anti-aging exercises for dropping those unwanted pounds of fat, while preserving essential muscle (Hint: it's not as complicated as you think)! Discover why you shouldn't fear dreaded cholesterol and how it can actually help you live a much longer and healthier life! Do you really know what causes arterial build-up in your veins and causes lack of blood flow? It's not what you think. I'll tell you the real culprit and what you can do about it! Why you should ditch your favorite pair of sunglasses and do this instead to naturally improve your eyesight and sleep better. You'll wish you did this years ago once you SEE the real difference in your health and vision! Find out how you can easily increase your lifespan by over 10% or more with just a few simple adjustments to your own lifestyle! A little of this goes a very long way! I'll show you exactly why you don't need 8 glasses of water per day, why coffee is actually making you sick and fat, and why breathing LESS is better for optimal health! Discover why you should never eat past sundown, how vegetable oils are secretly destroying your health, and the real secrets why fasting can help you melt off pesky fat (and also help you live longer)! Ever heard of the 'Vagus Nerve'? Find out why stimulating this critical nerve can have a vital impact on your own physical health and personal vitality! Find out the critical importance of fascia and aging, a secret trick to increasing collagen levels by 400%, and how red light can actually help you age backwards!

Winning at Aging
Author: John Kalb
Publisher: Confluence Books
ISBN: 9781935952497
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 269
Book Description
A revolutionary and empowering story is emerging: We actually have significant control over our aging process. John Kalb's exciting new book shows how millions of mature (age 50+) men and women can live lives of great health (physical, emotional, and spiritual) by understanding fundamental aspects of body, mind, and spirit in the second half of their lives. Research has proven that positive emotions and healthy behaviors play a significant role in aging, and they can be increased for a better life. This means that successful aging is a self-fulfilling prophecy: Anticipating a positive future increases the likelihood we will experience it. Each of us must develop practical wisdom to know when to courageously maximize our functional abilities and when to serenely accept the inevitable losses that aging brings. Winning at aging is a journey not adestination and there are many pathways to success. Here is a book that will help you live life to the fullest and: * Increase your life span by 20 quality years * Enjoy your authentic diet while you reduce disease risk * Spring clean your body with a user-friendly allergy-free detox program * Achieve permanent weight loss ... without dieting * Exercise for fun and maximize your benefits in minimal time * Create the healthy lifestyle of your dreams by eliminating self-sabotage once and for all * Keep your mind sharp and clear by stimulating and supporting your brain cells * Become a master of self-care by learning from your body * Discover an exciting new vision and purpose for the second half of your life * Feel great about helping yourself, other people, and the planet

Book Description
A lively, deeply reported tour of the science and strategies helping athletes like Tom Brady, Serena Williams, Carli Lloyd, and LeBron James redefine the notion of “peak age.” Season after season, today’s sports superstars seem to defy the limits of physical aging that inevitably sideline their competitors. How much of the difference is genetic destiny and how much can be attributed to better training, medicine, and technology? Is athletic longevity a skill that can be taught or a mental discipline that can be mastered? Can career-ending injuries be predicted and avoided? Journalist Jeff Bercovici spent extensive time with professional and Olympic athletes, coaches, and doctors to find the answers to these questions. His quest led him to training camps, tournaments, hospitals, antiaging clinics, and Silicon Valley startups, where he tried cutting-edge treatments and technologies firsthand and investigated the realities behind health fads like alkaline diets, high-intensity interval training, and cryotherapy. Through fascinating profiles and first-person anecdotes, Bercovici illuminates the science and strategies extending the careers of elite older athletes, uncovers the latest advances in fields from nutrition to brain science to virtual reality, and offers empowering insights about how the rest of us can find peak performance at any age.

The second section focuses on the thinking brain, explaining how working memory and executive function change with time. The third section is all about your body: how certain kinds of exercise, diets, and sleep can slow the decline of aging. Each section is sprinkled with practical advice, for example, the fascinating benefits of dancing, and the brain science behind each intervention. The final section is about the future. Your future. Medina connects all the chapters into a plan for maintaining your brain health. You may already be experiencing the sometimes-unpleasant effects of the aging process. Or you may be deeply concerned about your loved ones who are. Either way, Brain Rules for Aging Well is for you.
