The Free Natural Anti-Aging Technique

intuition for anti-ageingI’d like to talk today about real natural anti-aging – and how great it can be for your health and wellbeing. First though, let’s start with a little problem we have as a culture. We spend so much time living in our heads – analyzing, planning, predicting – that we don’t pay enough attention to intuition, even though it’s so important for being healthy and happy.

Our language still remembers the importance of intuition. We have those great phrases:

“I’ve got butterflies in my stomach…”

“I’ve got a gut feeling…”

“My stomach is in knots just thinking about this…”

“Follow your gut…”

Interestingly, science validates some of what our ancestors were talking about. We now know that the stomach is filled with neurons that help determine our mental state (what’s known as the enteric nervous system, or ‘second brain’).

awareness for health and happinessIn many ancient medical traditions (such as Ayurveda), caring for the gut and ensuring good digestion is at the heart of good health. So let’s bring back the gut back to our everyday focus. Back to Natural Anti-Aging though – here at LifeCell Australia, we know it doesn’t start and stop with a product you apply to your skin. We need to use our intuition to weed out those high stress, toxic influences in our life that age us and attack our health.

Intuition, more than reason is what lets us know we’re in the wrong career, relationship or lifestyle or around acquaintances that bring us down. Unfortunately, she whispers, so we have to bring silent, reflective time into our lives to hear her. And we’ll hear her in the gut.

Hearing that voice is the easiest part though. Taking action takes courage and energy. However, with better health and happiness as your reward, it’s worth the effort.

If you don’t already, try taking 10 minutes every day to still your mind and bring intuition back into your life.

believe in your intuition1. The first step is awareness. Sit quietly, relax your breathing and look over the different areas of your life that need attention.

2. The second step is intention.  Decide on the changes you’d like to make and declare them so they’re clear in your mind.

3. The third step is taking action to integrate the changes into your everyday life. In other words, create your reality, rather than just let it happen to you.

This can be done immediately and routinely.  Begin today!!

Staying Healthy As We Reach 40 Plus

The key to staying healthy and active no matter what your age

healthy lifeI don’t believe for a moment that ageing, and the ‘symptoms’ that come with it, is inevitable. You can stay healthy, energised, flexible and sharp into your 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond, I am living proof of this!

There are many things you can do to protect your body, mind and skin from the passing of time, but there is one proven thing you simply must do – it’s my number one tip for staying healthy and active, and here it is: fight inflammation.

An unhealthy inflammatory response in the body is linked to many health conditions such as diabetes, arthritis, varicose, veins and autoimmune disease. It also causes our bodies, minds and skin to age faster than it should.

Maintaining a healthy inflammatory response body-wide is the single most effective way to keep your body and mind functioning optimally as you get older.

The one thing you must do for a health body and mind

what are free radicalsFree radicals are oxidised toxins that accelerate the aging process, and they’re everywhere. Free radicals are in the air we breathe and the water we drink. They’re in the food we eat. Alcohol and cigarettes are absolutely loaded with damaging free radicals.

Then there’s stress, toxins from personal-care products, pesticides and chemicals, lack of exercise… All of these increase levels of these health-demons.

In other words, you are under constant attack from the inside out.

Not only do free radicals make you look and feel older, they disrupt your body’s healthy inflammatory response and contribute to everything from joint problems, to heart issues, to cognitive decline, to deteriorating vision. Free radicals also damage the mitochondrial cells – your body’s energy “power plants” – contributing to fatigue and low energy levels.

I’m sure you’ve seen how an apple begins to turn brown soon after having its skin peeled? Well, this degeneration of the apple’s cells is called singlet oxidation. This same degenerative process turns metal into rust – and that’s what’s happening to your body when it is loaded up with free radicals.

Defy your age by doing this one thing

carotenoids-for-longevityUnquestionably, free-radical-fighting antioxidants are the key to promoting a healthy inflammatory response. However, some antioxidants prove to be better than others.

I personally focus on specific carotenoid molecules, as these are some of the most powerful antioxidant available anywhere on earth. These naturally occurring pigments give fruits and vegetables their vibrant colours and have names like lycopene (found in red tomatoes) and beta-carotene (found in orange carrots), lutein, canthaxanthin (the gold in chanterelle mushrooms), zeaxanthin in capsicums, kiwi fruit, corn, grapes, and oranges.

This is it: my number one anti-ageing anti-inflammatory tip.

heart healthHaving a rich source of these powerful antioxidants in your diet, through supplements and in your skincare ensures you are winning the war against free radicals and will be able to have fun and play with your grandchildren right into your 70s, 80s and even 90s!

At LifeCell Australia we are dedicated to providing you with both. Powerful Superfoods to provide the nutritional boost you need and toxin free, organic skincare to allow you to avoid that free radical bombardment. Partner with us and enjoy these products.

Yours in good health,

Want to know the secret to staying young inside (and out)?

telomeresIf you’re a long-time follower of LifeCell Australia, then you’ll already know the answer to the question: What is the secret to slowing ageing?

It’s a topic I am extremely passionate about and something I hope to explain to as many people as I possibly can! The answer is this: the secret to staying young on the inside – and out – is your telomeres. These are the protective caps at the end of each strand of your DNA.

When you are young, your telomeres are long. But every time a cell divides the telomeres get shorter. Over time, your telomeres get so short they can’t protect your DNA as well. When a cell divides, new cells are defective. You begin to develop the signs and diseases of old age.

Ageing is not inevitable – here’s how to slow it down

This was my primary concern when formulating the CELL Infuse Super Greens  and I researched this topic to discover the most appropriate nutrients to deliver this result. I also learned that there are several things we can do in our lifestyles to improve the health and youthfulness of our telomeres.

eat healthy food for longevity1. Eat More Fruits and Vegetables.

Diets lower in refined carbohydrates and higher in fresh fruits and vegetables are linked to longer telomeres. Also, eating magnesium-rich foods, such as leafy greens, preserves and repairs DNA. Boost your magnesium levels by eating more kale, spinach, Swiss chard and seaweed. Other good choices include quinoa, lentils, almonds, sesame seeds, avocado, spirulina, and dark chocolate.

2. Exercise.

exercise for staying youngStudies show people who do little or no exercise have the highest risk of short telomeres. Vigorous exercise can lead to longer telomeres, but you don’t have to be an endurance athlete to stretch your telomeres!

Short bursts of medium to high intensity exercise can give you anti-aging benefits. I personally include a 12 to 18-minute incline in my regular run to expand the lungs and strengthen the body. I suggest you build up to this – and don’t use your age as an excuse not to try.

3. Reduce Your Stress.

reduce stress to slow ageingI suggest some meditation or listening to relaxing music. These are the best ways to reduce stress, and can also turn on telomerase activity, the enzyme that rebuilds telomeres and helps rebuild a younger body.

4. Raise Your HDL Levels.

One of the best ways to maintain your telomeres is to raise your HDL (“good”) cholesterol as high as you can, as studies show that people with the highest HDL have the longest telomeres. You might want to consider taking a vitamin E complex called tocotrienols. Studies show that these give your HDL a huge boost. Look for a tocotrienol supplement with as much gamma and delta tocotrienols as you can.

Here’s to a more youthful you!

Moringa – The Miracle Tree

Bring Out Your Radiance from Within

As many of you know your inner health and outer beauty are tightly connected. What happens with one is directly affecting the other. This week I would like to share the amazing benefits of a particular nutrient, Moringa. I have been amazed with the evidence that is available today to demonstrate the power of healing it can give the body in so many varied ways.

Moringa is a genus tree…. The leaves of the species called moringa oleifera, have become recognized in recent years as being highly beneficial to human health.

moringa treeMoringa leaves can be known to be an anti-aging powerhouse because they contain several thousand times more of the powerful anti-aging nutrient zeatin than any other known plant. A study published in Rejuvenation Research shows the undeniable youth-preserving effects of zeatin because it can have the ability to induce cell division and growth, and delay cell aging.

With the zeatin contained in moringa, new skin cells grow at a faster rate than our old skin cells die. This can have a marked reduction of wrinkles on the face and other parts of the body, and more youthful skin appearance.

Moringa leaves also have 90 essential nutrients and 2 compounds that evidence suggests may prevent cancer and may reduce tumors (or retarding their growth). This has earned moringa the reputation of being a cancer preventative plant. India’s natural Ayurvedic medicine uses moringa leaves to prevent and treat over 300 diseases.

A Bureau of Plant Industry report states that, gram per gram, moringa leaves contain: Twice the protein content of 8 ounces of milk (and 4 times the calcium); the Vitamin C equivalent of 7 oranges; the potassium content of 3 bananas; 3 times the iron of spinach; and 4 times the Vitamin A of carrots.
