At an anti-aging conference, entitled "Diet and Optimum Health," sponsored by the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University one of the key nutrients discussed was alpha lipoic acid (ALA). In animal and human studies, this compound has established that is will slow the aging process, improve blood flow, enhance immune function and promote healthy blood sugar and many other functions. Dr. Tory Hagen, a researcher at Linus Pauling Institute, noted, "the evidence suggests that lipoic acid is actually a low-level stressor that turns on the basic cellular defenses of the body, including many of those that naturally decline with age." He further added, "In particular, it tends to restore levels of glutathione, a protective antioxidant and detoxification compound to those of a young animal.

Exercise – now don't let the word keep you from reading on because you are going to like this bit of news even if you're a total couch potato!

It’s true that genes are important in the aging process but aren’t the whole story. Public health advances like sanitation and routine vaccination have greatly improved the likelihood for long life. Just because they had genes that protected them against infectus diseases prevalent in the early 20th century. Tomorrow’s centenarians may need to have a different sort of genetic advantage attuned to 21st century conditions. It may well be the intersection of genes with changing health conditions that really influences how long we live may have more to do with diet and other lifestyle choices.

Aging is inevitable with the breakdown and degeneration of cells, organs and onset of poor health. There are, however, three amazing nutrients that can help slow and even turn back the hands of time when it comes to aging. Those three miracle nutrients are acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC), alpha lipoic acid (ALA) and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10).
