New Words, Thoughts and Foods for the Anti-Aging Crowd<\/strong><\/big> by Janice Taylor<\/a>, Life & Wellness Coach, Cert. Hypnotist, NLP Practitioner,
\nFirst, I MUST address the word “anti-aging,” which annoys me and is totally on my last nerve. It is plastered on every product, billboard, and now embedded in our minds.
\nI’m wondering – how does it resonate with you?<\/strong> I’ve heard other words tossed about. Just last night, in fact, I was addressing a fabulous group of boomers, and they were trying on “Creative Aging.” I liked that, but I fear that if I used that as a title some, of you may think that I am going to ‘make’ you do something on the ‘crafty’ side.
\nSO!!! I came up with the following word just the minute: Positivimaging.(C)<\/strong><\/big> (It’s copyrighted now; dont’ even think of pretending it’s your brain child.”) Pronounced: Posit-iVIM<\/strong><\/big>-aging (accent on VIM – of course). <\/em>
\nFurther my rant, is ‘anti-aging possible?’ NO! It is NOT possible NOT to age; I will instead, ask … “Is posit-iVIM-aging possible?” IT IS! You can be positively find and live the VIM in your positive aging imagery!
\nThe 411 (a.k.a. information):<\/strong>
\nWe are made up of living cells, and these cells are continually dying and replacing themselves. In order for our bodies to heal, repair and regenerate healthy new cells, proper nutrition is required.
\nWhen a cell replaces itself, it can do one of three things:<\/em><\/strong>
\nReplace itself with a weaker cell.<\/strong> If the right nutritional foods have not been added to your diet, this could happen; or
\nReplace itself with a cell of equal health and strength;<\/strong><\/em> or
\nReplace itself with a stronger, better and healthier cell<\/em><\/strong>. In order to regenerate these super-cells, we need to be feeding them the best ‘posit-iVIM-aging’ or ‘regeneration’ foods.
\nWhat to do?<\/strong> Here’s a partial list of Posit-iVIM-aging, nutrient packed, super foods that will help to keep those new cells healthy and happy.
\nFresh vegetables:<\/strong> bell peppers, artichokes, asparagus, broccoli, carrots, pumpkin, squash, spinach, collard greens, cabbage, kale, eggplant, edamame (green soy beans), sweet potatoes
\nFresh fruits:<\/strong> blueberries, cherries, cranberries, grapefruit, mangoes, pineapple, strawberries, raspberries, prunes
\nLegumes:<\/strong> pinto beans, fava beans, lentils
\nFish:<\/strong> salmon, tuna, anchovies
\nWhole grains,<\/strong> seeds and nuts: brown rice, pumpkin seeds, almonds, walnuts, bulgur wheat
\nOil<\/strong>: olive, avocado, flaxseed
\nWater:<\/strong> six 8-ounce
\nExercise<\/strong>. A recent study of 250 Japanese women ages 20 to 70, indicated that those who exercised regularly were 5 years “younger.” They had greater muscle mass, better cardiovascular endurance, and increased flexibility–than those who did not exercise. It has also be suggested that weightlifting may slow age-related weight gain and belly fat accumulation.
\nStay out of the sun<\/strong>, and stay away from white flour, white sugar, processed foods containing trans-fats, foods high in saturated fat and foods containing hydrogenated corn oil.
\nAND if you really want to instantly shed a couple of years, you’ve got to get that inner glow glowin’. We look better when we take care of ourselves, think positive thoughts, take time for others, and smile big!
