Every woman is fighting in her own way to retain the energy levels; she had during the yesteryears of youth. As a woman reaches the age of 30, production of natural hormones viz., estrogen (the female hormone) and Human Growth Hormone (HGH) begins to decrease. This leads to various age related factors like


  • Less energy throughout the day
  • Slower metabolism
  • Body fat is gained more easily
  • Loss of muscle mass
  • Fluctuations of body temperature
  • Cholesterol buildup in the arteries
  • Weaker immune system

Medical practitioners opine that natural anti aging supplements, vitamins and exercise-based remedies can help maintain youthful state.


Anti Aging Supplements

Skin care is essential to retain a youthful appearance. Aging can change our skin health. For instance, as we grow older we can see wrinkles around eyes or cheeks. Hence, it is essential to maintain our skin in order to defy aging.


Anti aging supplements can slow down the aging process by protecting the body from the effects caused by aging. However, this depends on the kind of supplement used by you. Experts say that prolonged use of chemical supplements can lead to skin cancer at a later stage.


Aging, as discussed earlier is related to cell components called mitochondria. Hence, just by taking a pill, we cannot regain our youth. Mitochondria's produce nearly all the energy our cells require. Overtime, as they are damaged, we get older.


Taking enzymes as a supplement can help in the proper functioning of mitochondria. There are a variety of enzyme supplement in the market like Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) or amino acid acetyl-Lcarnitine. Check with your physician before taking any of the above.


Dehydroepiandrosterone, or DHEA, is another popular aging supplement. It is a hormone that your body uses to produce some other hormones, including estrogen and testosterone. However, there is a big debate among medical practitioners on the effectiveness of DHEA.


Natural Anti Aging Supplements

Natural anti aging supplements, often considered as an effective way to defend aging include a wide variety of vitamins and minerals. Scientific research indicates that these supplements, with few or no side effects can fight aging in all types of people. They also reveal that natural anti aging supplements can promote additional health benefits like increased brain function and reversing sun damage to the skin.


Medical practitioners say that natural anti aging supplements are capable of curbing accumulation of products of aging, DNA damage, mitochondrial slowing and damage to the genetic regulators. Moreover, these products have the ability to promote nutritional support, which plays a key role in protecting human beings from development of diseases like arthritis, stroke, diabetes, plague formation and atherosclerosis among others. Natural anti aging supplements not only help one boost the immune system but also increase the energy levels.


Anti Aging Vitamins


Aging can be defended by proper intake of minerals and vitamins that can rejuvenate the body and skin. Many vitamins present in the environment can either prevent aging or help in the process of delaying the signs of aging. These anti-aging vitamins are also manufactured in the form of pills and vitamin supplements. Apart from slowing the process of aging, these supplements can boost the immune system, increase energy levels and stabilize the female hormonal imbalance.


Woman's body requires several nutrients like amino acid, antioxidants, alpha lipoic acid, bioflavonoids, neuronutrients, enzymes and other substances for healthy functioning. After 30 years of age, it is better for every woman to take these nutrients in some form or the other. Following anti aging vitamin supplements can help you defend aging.


Vitamin A: Rich in antioxidants, vitamin A helps the body to get rid of the free radicals and the metabolic activities that fasten the aging process. Antioxidants can be obtained from fresh fruits berries, cherries and grapes. Green tea is also a great source of vitamin A. If you are one amongst those who try to fight aging, then vitamin A combined with a sunscreen lotion can be of help to you.


However, remember, overdose of vitamin A supplements can make the skin more prone towards damage.


Vitamin B Complex: Vitamin B3 and B6 are the greatest source of anti aging vitamins especially for women. While vitamin B3 helps the body to convert calories derived from fat, carbohydrates and proteins into energy, vitamin B6 increases the brain functioning and promotes healthy cells and cell rejuvenation. Vitamin B3 also helps to regulate the digestive system and promotes health of the nerves.


Sources of vitamin B3 and B6 are fish, poultry, meat, eggs, seeds, nuts, whole grains, and bananas.


Vitamin C: A greatsource of antioxidants, vitamin C is found in many citrus fruits and vegetables. Vitamin C is a great source of antioxidants found in the skin. Similar to vitamin A, vitamin C also helps in developing anti-carcinogenic properties. Most of the vitamin C in the skin gets damaged due to pollution, UV rays and smoking. Hence, it is necessary to provide the body with ample amount of vitamin C rich natural products or supplements.


Vitamin E: Againrich in antioxidants, Vitamin E plays a vital role in delaying the process of aging and makes the skin appear younger and smooth. Vitamin E protects the membranes of the cell and prevents the damage of the cell enzymes. Sources of Vitamin E include dairy products, grains, nuts and vegetable oils.


This apart, several vitamin and mineral supplements like Vitamin K, selenium, Vitamin D, and calcium can also help women fight aging. In addition, proper skin care combined with reasonable exercise is essential for fighting aging. However, ensure to check with your medical practitioner before taking any kind of anti aging supplements.
