The Worlds Leading Anti-Aging Products

Skin cell reproduction slows down as one continues to age. The declining rate at which fresh cells are reproduced, combined with exposure to sunlight, gravity, and years of frowning and other facial movements, reduces skin elasticity. These natural developments lead to the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines and other signs of aging on the forehead, cheeks, around the mouth, and even the hands and...

Amazing Proof: Taking Antioxidants Slows Aging

Jean Carper

Here's exciting new proof that taking antioxidants keeps you younger, according to Tufts University research.

Women ages 50-70 who took 3 antiox idant supplements--beta carotene, lutein and lycopene--for two months showed dramatically less DNA damage to cells than those who took a dummy pill, and the benefits kicked in after 15 days!

This is big and important stuff. It's well-known that aging and chronic diseases, such as cancer, heart disease and Alzheimer's, are largely caused by damage to cells' DNA. The damage is caused by "free radical chemicals," formed during normal metabolism, and taken in through toxins in the environment, such as smoke.

The more accumulated damage in cells, the faster you age and the higher the odds of chronic diseases--from cataracts to cancer. If you can lessen cell damage, you slow down the entire aging process.

And that's the miracle of small doses of beta carotene, lutein and lycopene in this study. A mixture of 4 mg of each, 12 mg total, cut DNA damage in cells an amazing 29%. Also, 12 mg of each antioxidant alone worked. Lycopene and lutein were more powerful , reducing DNA damage 28% and 31% respectively. Beta carotene cut damage 10%.

Researchers point out you can get these anti-aging doses from eating lots of fruits and vegetables, such as carrots, spinach and tomatoes. But how well they are absorbed differs greatly among individuals.

The more compelling message: Why risk aging prematurely when you can slash the odds one-third by simply taking the antioxidants that worked in this study?

That's the best insurance against aging--along with eating your fruits and vegetables. (Source: Xianfeng, Z: Am J Clin Nutr 2006;83:163-9)

Featured Product: Our Stop Aging Now! Multi Nutrient Formula provides 16 mg daily of mixed beta carotene, lutein and lycopene as well as other antioxidants--far more than the amount used in the study. Compare Centrum Silver: It contains only .25 mg, or a mere one-quarter of 1 milligram of lutein, and .3 mg of lycopene, insignificant amounts.
