There are things you can do at a relatively young age – thirties or even late twenties – to ensure the symptoms of old age don’t get you down. It’s easier to prevent symptoms of age than to reverse them, although much can also be done if you are already feeling symptoms.
There are a lot of different symptoms that can be a result of aging. A body begins to show effects of age usually in one’s thirties, and sometimes as early as late twenties. Here is a list of some of the consequences:
Getting fat, Difficulties with joints, Feeling dizzy, Pain or uncomfortable sensations in breasts, Feeling too hot, Low libido, Tiredness, Feeling grouchy, Thinning hair,Insomnia, Finding it hard to direct attention, Problems with memory, Incontinence, Water retention, Developing allergies, Nails ridged or brittle, Body odor,Heart palpitations, Sudden changes in mood, Feeling depressed, Feeling panic, Head pains, A burning feeling in the tongue, Feeling irritable, Extra belly fat,Problems digesting food, Skin itchiness, Gum disease, Tight muscles, Loss of strength, Tingling feeling in arms and legs, Being disoriented, and High blood pressure.
Men and women can both experience these consequences of age, although men are more likely to have hair loss and women are more likely to experience tender breasts and sweating. That should be an eye opener. And that’s not all the symptoms.
Often these changes occur as a gradual process, and there are factors that affect the changes – speed them up or slow them down. What you eat and the amount of exercise you get can have a good or bad effect. Different individuals experience the changes at different times of life. But there is a real physical cause for these changes.
Hormones control all of the functions that occur in a body. As a person gets older, less and less of the hormones needed are produced by the body, or sometimes a gland just shuts down altogether, causing an imbalance in hormone levels. All of the above listed conditions are the result of hormone imbalance or insufficient hormone levels. Each individual is different – bodies age at different rates.
The ideal solution would be to restore hormone levels of the body to the level they were when one was young. And that is a very workable solution, which brings about slowing, halting or even reversing the effects of aging. It has been proven to work in millions of cases.
If you wish to embark on this course of treatment, there are a couple of things to be aware of. Some doctors merely prescribe testosterone or estrogen, but these are only two of the many hormones in the body and they do not control all the bodily functions. It is very important that the hormones used as replacements are bio-identical hormones – that is to say, they are the same as the ones the body produces, molecule for molecule. A responsible physician aware of the amazing advances in alternative medicine of late will ensure that proper tests are run to determine current hormone levels for all hormones, and use this information to prescribe a specific amount of each hormone that is lacking.
Take steps now to ensure a longer, healthier and happier life for yourself. A competent doctor can help you not only with bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, but also with changes to your lifestyle and diet that can assist benefits.
