6 Steps to Healthy Aging

Updated: Jan 27, 2020

1. MORNING ROUTINE RECOMMENDATIONS


A morning routine will set the tone for the rest of the day. Try to start your morning the night before. This will relieve stress, save time and will help create a better mindset!


Keep Hydrated – It is important to drink water, especially when you wake up!

Lemon Water

Try boosting your morning water with these simple additions:

  • Lemon water

  • Apple cider vinegar (raw with the mother)

  • Ginger tea (great for inflammation & digestion)

  • Energetix Rehydration

Include a high-quality protein

  • This is essential to your breakfast. Statistically, skipping breakfast is linked to being overweight. Eating a good quality protein can help balance blood sugar and cholesterol. In addition, it will provide you with more energy and make you more alert unlike carbs.

Think positive thoughts!

  • You are a priority.


2. DRINK YOUR WAY TO HEALTH WITH HERBAL TEAS


Herbal teas are an easy and great way to boost your health.

Try adding some of the following to your routine:

3. SUPPLEMENT SUPPORT


By having a good foundation, you will be able to maintain, support and rebuild your health. I recommend a high-quality fish oil/ viamin D & K2/ omega-3 fatty acid supplement (examples: OmegaAvail Ultra with lipase, Krill Oil, Vitamin D Supreme, or Emulsi-D3). In addition, I recommend a good probiotic or consuming fermented foods daily.


Others you might consider:

4. BOOST YOUR SKIN CARE ROUTINE


Avoid harmful toxins and replace with healthful products. Your skin absorbs everything you put on it. Studies have said that 60% of chemicals in cosmetics end up in your blood stream. It is estimated that 5 pounds of cosmetics are being absorbed every year!! It only takes about 26 seconds for your skin to absorb cosmetics and go directly into the bloodstream. Truly, the bottom line is to make sure you put natural and healthy cosmetics on your skin.

What I love to use for skin health:

  • Chaga Cream - Keep your skin hydrated

  • Olive oil – Try using this instead of a harsh makeup remover

  • Collagen - Supports skin elasticity & lessens wrinkles

  • HSN Complex - Great for thin hair and breaking/brittle nails

  • Dry Skin Brushing - Improves cellulite & is great for the lymphatics

5. GET YOUR MOVE ON


Keep active as you age. If you don’t “use it” you will “lose it.”

Make exercise fun: Take a pet on a walk, Rebounder, Yoga , Gym, classes, etc.


6. TOP AGING HEALTH FOODS

  • Berries rich in anti-oxidants and flavonoids: Blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, cherries, pomegranates, cranberries, mulberries

  • Raw/Sprouted Nuts: Walnuts, pistachios, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds

  • Wild caught Alaskan salmon: Sock-eye is the best, rich in astaxanthin

  • Bone Broth: Loaded with collagen, calcium, magnesium, potassium

  • Vegetables rich in sulfur: Garlic, onions, cauliflower, kale, broccoli, cabbage, radishes, Brussels sprouts
