In part 1 of this article we uncovered why it is important to

work for optimal health and fitness after 40 years of age. We

also made the case to avoid substance abuse in our most

productive mid-life years.

Furthermore, we noted our families and community really need our

experienced insights over forty. In the second part of this

article we discuss the nitty gritty of using diet, exercise,

and some nutritional supplements to help us feel more youthful.

- Rebuild Your Body with Diet and Exercise

By now I am sure that we all have heard the bad news: there is

an obesity epidemic in the United States. This health crisis

without a doubt is exacerbated by our sedentary life style.

There are other reasons for our weight problems in the US. Our

diet of fatty processed foods is also a culprit in our battle

obesity.

Being over weight seems to accelerate the aging process. This

is because being over weight seems to be related to the on-set

of diseases associated with aging like diabetes, certain types

of cancer, heart problems, and stokes.

There is hope in a good diet, supplements and exercise

associated with weight loss can help reduce your aging process

and make you feel much younger. I have found that exercise

makes me feel much younger and increases my libido.

While it has been reported that hormones in men and women

decline after forty, I have found that exercises like running

makes me more energetic throughout the day. One of the most

nagging problems however with running or other high impact

aerobics is joint pain in the knees, ankles, and back.

The condition called Osteoarthritis is experienced because the

cartilage or tissue that cushions the joints becomes worn. The

condition can be worst in those of us who are over weight.

This discourages many people from undertaking workout programs

to lose weight.

Dr. Weil M.D. advocates the use of Glucosamine Sulfate

and Chondroitin to help with joint support problems. I am

experiencing great results with a product that combines these

ingredients and others that work in a time release fashion

called Phosoplex.

I am running about 3 miles a day and am slowly training for the

2006 NYC marathon, due in part to the great joint support and

less pain I am experiencing associated with using Phosoplex.

I also include a regiment of strength training (pushups,

pull-ups, etc.) and flexibility like yoga and martial arts forms

to resist the inflexibility associated with aging.

If you are having problems loosing the weight with exercise cut

down on simple sugars, pastas, and starches. Also eat more

lean protein sources like fish and broiled chicken without the

skin. Look into eating more stemmed vegetables, drinking more

water and less soda and juices. Perhaps products like Zyroxin

and especially Zalestra for weight loss in pre-menopausal women

would also be good to for you to consider.

Lastly, after losing those extra pounds we all want to put our

best face forward in looking great. Unfortunately nature does

not always cooperate. According to the Seattle Times Study as

we age we experience the beginnings of crow's feet, laugh

lines, and potbellies.

It also states that our Skin cells divide more slowing, causing

the skin to thin. Wrinkles form around the eyes and mouth.

More than 3 million people ages 35 to 50 had a cosmetic

procedure last year in the U.S.

I notice that as I age I find older women with character lines

more attractive. However if you feel you want to smooth out the

few wrinkles on your face why chance expensive and serious

surgery or Botox injections (a product related to the biological

warfare agent botulism)? Consider trying some over the counter

products like Rejuvinol, which fights wrinkles while it

moisturizes and helps protect your skin. Don't put yourself

at risk to look younger.

Rejuvinol, and Zalestra you can visit Amazon.com or...
