Telomerase

At the end of your DNA is something called “telomerase” which sort of binds it together. Think of it like the tape at the end of a shoestring, holding the fibers together. Over time, that tape gets maligned, damaged, and falls off. It’s only a short while until that shoestring is nigh-unusable. Telomerase works in similar fashion, but what wears it down is stress. Stress from everyday life. From running a thousand places and managing a thousand things. From being a secure pillar of your family and the community, and a shoulder to cry on. From work, from family, from ambition, and from life. These things induce stress, and over time that wears down your telomerase. As that happens health steadily declines. But the good news is, there are things you can do to help reduce stress and increase health. It has been found that there is a link between healthy living and a decrease in stress. Ergo, by buffing up your self-maintenance, you can actually inject life into your very DNA, and so have the resiliency of youth even as your years advance.

Regular Activity

As the years pass, it can be difficult to remain active; yet almost any physical activity is good for reduction of stress. Sometimes all you need to do is go out and have a walk every now and again. What’s best is finding an activity you enjoy, and which could become a hobby, that involves regular physical exercise. Cycling is a great way to increase your health and activity in a way that is safe, sustainable, and which you can control enough to increase your levels of physical output as your ability expands.

Swimming is an even safer activity that allows you to enjoy yourself while physically exerting yourself in a secure environment. Hiking, fishing, and trips to the gym are also great ways of keeping yourself busy. You may have to work up to it, though. The best advice is to establish a routine. Schedule in for yourself a trip to the pool, or a bicycle ride–or both–once a week. If you can keep it up for three or four weeks, you’ll establish a habit. As you continue to exercise, you’ll have more energy to exercise an increased amount, meaning you can increase your physical activity over time. This is a great way to ease into a healthy routine that reduces stress, hones your musculature, and reinvigorates you.

Healthy Food

It can be difficult to get a healthy meal nowadays. Everywhere you go there is fast food, processed food, genetically modified food, and junk food. Then there are synthetic foods, synthetic sweeteners, prescription and over the counter medications, and general vice. In general, the more artificial something is, the worse it is for you. Try and cut food from your diet that is over processed. It’s advisable to have lots of fruits, lots of vegetables, and lots of grain-rich bread. Meats may or may not be good for your health, so it makes sense to consult a physician.

Regular Checkups

Oftentimes preventable conditions expand beyond control because they go unchecked. While eating and exercising regularly, be sure and contact a physician or health agency on a regular basis for a checkup. In Bayonne, NJ, there’s a clinic that specializes in check-ups and treatment for families of all sizes and ages. Finding a group like the one in Bayonne, NJ can be integral to ensuring that you not only remain healthy, but exhibit progress in your efforts. The truth is, preserving youth requires work; but it can be done.
