“How you treat you’re body today will show up 10 years later”

Here is a list of what I do to Anti Age- Anti aging for me is more about keeping youthful and healthy so that in the future I don’t suffer from disease. I like to feel and look as healthy as I possibly can without going to pain killers and drugs. There is a reason why most people suffer. It’s because they have been treating their bodies horrible for all those years. Take care of your body and you won’t need to revert to unhealthy Medicines. Invest in your health now and avoid the cost of expensive medicines later on in life. Our bodies are very forgiving when we are younger but if you keep treating it poorly eventually it’s going to fail. So treat your body with respect.

1. SLEEP/REST take naps if need be. Sleep is very important for the brain and stress levels. In order to process information and for you to think through problems. Sleep helps you deal with Stress. Stress makes you age. You don’t want that. Take baths. Make sure you relax as much as you can

2. DIET- Make everything you put into your mouth count. Eat for the sake of finding pleasure in being healthy rather than the sake of finding pleasure from eating foods that are bad for you. Sure it might be fun to eat the junk food while youre doing it but instead find pleasure in eating for results. Realize what you are doing to your body when you put processed or refined sugar into it. Treat your body like a temple, do not abuse it with Junk Food.

3. VITAMINS make sure you have all the essential Vitamins and minerals. You can never get enough Vitamin C, D and E…these are all antioxidant vitamins and are very important for staying looking and feeling young. I take allot of cleansing herbs such as burdock and dandelion root which helps to cleans

4. PROBIOTICS- A multi Probiotic from your health food store will do. Make sure you store it in the fridge or buy the kind that you can travel with. Acidophilus is the main one but it’s good to have a blend of them. probiotics help to keep you digestion and intestines with healthy bacterial activity which is important for anti aging. Probiotics puts the healthy type of bacteria into your body to combat the unhealthy kinds which helps your body a

5. ENVIRONMENT Surround yourself with nature and scenery as much as you can. Even something as simple as having a few house plants can help your youthfulness. Always have nature as a part of your life. Go for a walk in and get fresh air.

6.FRIENDS FAMILY AND LOVED ONES keep healthy and positive people around you. Choose wisely who you surround yourself with.

7. Positive State of Mind and Humour- find things to laugh at and try to have fun with everything you do. I don’t care if youre a doctor or a dentist or a lawyer. You can still have fun at your job.

8. Natural Skin Products- watch what you buy at the store. Most drug store creams, conditioners and shampoos have parabins in them. These not only age you but are known to cause cancer. Instead use Coconut oil, Vitamin E oil, or ask your health food store for an alternative if you have oily skin you can use cucumber or lemon to take the oil away. There are really great products at whole foods or your local health food store. You can even make your own skin care products from online recipes. I like to make my own mixtures and have fun with it. I mix avocado, lemmon and crushed up almonds for a face mask (and hope that nobody knocks on my door during that time with gunk all over my face )

9. Minimize Cell Phone and Computer use. If you have to be on you cell phone put it on speaker phone to avoid direct contact to your ear. Use a mouse instead of the touch pad controller. Direct contact with devinces is not good. There is

10. Stretch and get moderate exercise. Don’t overdo it but just make sure you get up and get moving.

11. Moderate your eating- You don’t need to eat allot. Eat small amounts and eat all day long. That’s the trick. you can snack on healthy snacks all day and it’s better than eating large meals.

12. Minimize you caffeine, sugar, wheat, milk products, meat products till you have eliminated them from your diet completely. All these things age you and have many chemicals. Instead eat Hemp Hearts, Flax Seed, Salba, Chi Seeds,Quenoi and as many different types of nuts and seeds you can find. Jamed

13. DRINK WATER- drink as much water as you can. Preferrably Reverse Osmosis water or filtered. Allot of water that is sold in bottles seem to be the way to go but they could have harmful chemicals in them. Try purified as much as you can. A britta water filter is good for reducing the amount of plastic water bottles you buy and contribute to helping the environment. According to the movie “tapped” the tap water is actually safer to drink than the bottled water we buy in the store.. watch that movie! it’s great

14. Go Vegan or Vegetarian or just cut back! The amount of hormones and chemicals used in production of meat is crazy these days. Even if it says organic I really don’t trust it. Plus If you are blood type a+ like me it’s easy to do this. Other blood types might need more meat. (consider reading the book eat right for your type) …but if you do go veggie you are not only helping the environment you are also helping you to stay young and to avoid future health problems. You can get all your nutrients from plant sources. There is so much research out to teach you how to do it properly. Even if you have to supplement Iron or take Vegan Protein shakes it is well worth the efforts. I eat tons of fruits and leafy greens to take vitamins to ensure I have what I need.

15. Spice it UP! Eat as much spicy foods as you can handle. You will grow tolerant of the spice as you go along. Spice helps with Metabolism, blood circulation and antiaging. Add Jalapinos, garlic,Wasabi, pepper, and add all the different spices to your diet. Try different recipes. Curries are very good for you and so are the spices put into the Ethiopian and Indian Style foods.

16. Herbal Cleanses- Do an herbal cleanse at least once per month or once every other week. An overall Organ cleanser is very important. Herbs can help you antiage and help you live longer. Invest in an herbal cleanse from your local health food store.

17. Avoid perfumes- They usually have toxins and are very unhealthy for you. Most of them have cancer causing chemicals in them. Instead switch to Essential oils. I like the lavender and the Rose otto for myself and Spearmint and Peppermint to freshen the smell of my car interior or my home.

18. Bubble Baths with Epsom salts are very relaxing and anti aging.

19. TEA…drink plenty of herbal tea. have a collection of them ready. They help to relax you and also provide hydration.

20. Do something new and exciting- there is nothing better for your youth than to do something that you have never done before. If you keep you’re brain stimulated and young and your imagination adventurous it helps your overall glow,well being and spirit!

21. Keep your calories to a minimum- Digesting food is the the stressful thing that your body can do. so don’t eat huge meals all at once. eat small snacks throughout the day so that your body is balanced. that way you avoid being “starving” and over eating at one sitting. Take a snack bag with the following items: nuts and seeds, fruits and veggies of different variety, a can of tuna, crackers and cheese/peanut butter, apples, yogurt, (all those healthy things your mom ((or if you are a mom yourself)) used to put in your lunch box when you were a kid are what you should have

22. DON’T FORGET YOUR SUNBLOCK!! LOL..last one..this is an obvious one but I still myself have trouble remembering it…I have sunblock in my car and my purse at all times now that I live in Cali but when I lived in Toronto I rarely had to use it. but it’s extremely important. Try to get the stuff from Whole foods or a natural food store because allot of sunblocks nowadays have dangerous and harmful cancer causing chemicals that you want to avoid. If you have allot of moles or are fair skinned get checked by a dermatologist regularly
