Body Focus - Total Body Wellness System

Throughout time, there’s been a persistent myth about the fountain of youth. 

Sure, we all know there’s no magic pill that will keep us young forever or be ten years younger, but there are things you can do to help turn back the clock...

• Stay on your diet.  You may be on a diet to lose weight, but it has other benefits too.  While carrying around extra pounds causes extra wear and tear on your system, a healthy diet also makes all your systems work right.  If your organs are properly nourished, they’ll operate more efficiently and won’t get worn out as fast.  It’s also a good idea to take a daily multivitamin.  You might find other supplements beneficial; just be sure you’re getting enough of the right nutrients and not too much of the wrong ones.
  
  
• Don’t forget your skin.  An important part of feeling young is keeping your organs healthy.  Well, your skin is the largest organ of your body.  Having healthy skin can make you look younger, which in turn can make you feel younger.  In addition to using anti-aging skin care products, be sure to eat a diet that helps improve skin quality.  Good choices are fresh fruits and vegetables and foods rich in protein.  Keep your skin (and the rest of your body) hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
  
  
• Get Exercise.  Everyone’s heard the old adage “if you don’t use it you lose it”.  Well, you’ve probably heard it so much because it’s true.  Regular exercise keeps your body working properly.  It can also strengthen your heart and help you lose excess pounds that are weighing you down.  And remember, exercising your mind is just as important for staying young as exercising your body.
  
  
• Feel good about getting old.  It may seem silly, but people who have a positive view about getting older tend to live longer.  Instead of worrying about how hard it will be to get around or do normal things, concentrate on the fun of retirement or other benefits to getting older.
  
  

Sure, there’s no fountain of youth, but taking small steps to stay healthy and keep yourself going will go a long way in helping you feel younger and live longer.
