Summary In this exciting, groundbreaking guide organized in an easy-to-use format, you will find out exactly which antiaging supplements to take every day, and in what quantities, to forestall premature aging and regain vital functions. For example, leading scientists have discovered that: vitamins and minerals can rejuvenate immune functions, restoring youthful resistance to infectious diseases and cancer; certain vitamins can prevent and reverse memory loss and other signs of "senility"; herbs, such as ginkgo, can revitalize the circulatory system and brain functioning; natural antioxidants in foods and supplements can prevent clogged arteries, heart attacks and general bodily deterioration; and many unfamiliar but readily available food chemicals promise to stretch life expectancy and preserve or restore youth and vitality
With Stop Aging Now!, Jean Carper, nationally syndicated columnist and leading authority on health and nutrition, proves that everyone, at any age of life, can take action to slow down or reverse the aging process
Stop Aging Now! is based on hundreds of trailblazing studies by scientists from prestigious institutions, including Harvard University and the National Institutes of Health, who are discovering the incredible truth about the aging process: that much of it is not inevitable, and that what we call "normal aging" is actually often due to unsuspected deficiencies that can be readily corrected by taking antioxidant vitamins, minerals, herbs and food chemicals. Such "youth potions" can dramatically slow aging at any time of life and can even turn back the clock for people in their sixties, seventies and eighties. These antiaging potions are not only remarkably safe at effective dosages, but easily obtainable; they are in your food, in your vitamin bottle and in your health food store
