The idea of age management services may seem like a vain attempt; after all, everyone ages. However, not everyone ages the same way, and there are things you can do when you are younger that change the way you age. Your outward appearance when you are 50 years or older can be somewhat controlled by how you nourish your body before you turn 40. The power of age management is real and here are three of the main services to consider.
IV Therapy
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published studies that show most American adults don’t drink enough water every day to maintain healthy body hydration. They also don’t eat enough fresh fruits and vegetables to maintain proper nutrition. When these are combined, they mean many adults are malnourished and dehydrated. Ordinary dietary supplements may not make up the difference. These conditions affect many systems in the body including the skin. IV therapy will give your body immediate access to the nutrients and fluids that nourish your skin, hair and fingernails. They may be healthier and look younger. Some of the ingredients in your IV therapy may be vitamins, amino acids, minerals and essential micro-nutrients.
Pharmaceutical-Grade Supplements
Pharmaceutical-grade means the supplement is manufactured with the purest form of the nutrient. This allows the body to absorb the maximum amount of the nutrient. While no product can be 100 percent pure, pharmaceutical-grade products must exceed 99 percent purity from natural sources and not contain binders, excipients, fillers, dyes or unknown substances. Only when your body absorbs enough of the active ingredients, will they have a therapeutic effect. This is called bio-availability and pharmaceutical-grade supplements are only manufactured in the FDA-registered facilities that follow specific practices.
The vast majority of dietary supplements are not pharmaceutical-grade, but with age management services, our specialist will prescribe the pharmaceutical-grade supplements you need for your particular health concerns.
Telomere Therapy
Telomeres are like caps that protect the end of chromosomes. The longer they are, the better the chromosomes are protected. Telomeres naturally shorten as we age. People have different length telomeres at birth and they shorten at different rates. The rate they shorten may also depend on your lifestyle. For example, smoking shortens telomeres in the lungs and increases the chance of developing lung cancer. In case studies, telomere therapy has been shown to lengthen the telomere allowing it to protect the chromosome from deterioration much longer. There are different types of telomere therapy and our specialist will discuss your options during your consultation.
