Oxidative Stress

Oxidative stress is the culprit behind sagging skin, aches and pains associated with aging and just plain looking older. I don't like what oxidative stress does to my body. I want to be young forever although I do like the wisdom that comes with age.

When were young our bodies fight off the free radical damage but as we age due to increased oxidative stress we are not able to produce enough of the antioxidant enzymes that plays a major role in neutralizing the cell-damaging free radicals associated with aging and a variety of health conditions.

If your approaching 40 then you are beginning to see signs of this oxidative stress, over 50 and your still cruising cool but fast approaching old fart hood and if your over 60 then you are reminded every morning when you get out of bed what the free radicals are doing to your body.

Rome wasn't built in a day and free radicals don't ravish your body in a day either. The best time to start prevention is as soon as you can but the sad part is that most of us don't realize what's happening until we wake up one morning, take time to take a closer look and discover:                                                                              

• Just a touch of gray                                                              
• A little sag here
• A bulge there
• A sore muscle
• Need I go on?
  
  

That's the bad news but there is good news. You hands are not tied behind your back. There are things you can do to combat oxidative stress.

• Take a good quality Krill Oil Daily Supplement. Krill oil has up to 50 times more oxidative stress fighting antioxidant's than regular fish oil.
  
• Get outdoors and enjoy nature. I know they have said for a few years now that the sun is bad for you but studies have been done that completely refute that claim. You need the vitamin D and all the other goods things you get from being outside. Use common sense though, don't stay out until your baked through and through.
  
• Use good Quality Cosmetics to protect your skin. Be particular don't buy junk! Invest in yourself.
  
• Keep calm. We put more oxidative stress on ourselves when we worry especially sweating the small things in life. Loosen up - your body will love it. 

 Bottom line:

If you let it oxidative stress will take it's toll on your body! You are the only one who can do anything about it. There is no magic pill or bullet, just good common sense options we can take advantage off.
