Longer life expectancy is considered as a symbol of better life and prosperity

Tens of millions die from medical conditions caused by aging each and every year, and a staggering amount of money is spent on trying to defy ageing and promote longevity.

As it stands right now, the risk of suffering age-related conditions in later life can be significantly reduced for most people through diet and exercise, with serious scientific efforts presently underway to understand and intervene in the aging process; not only to prevent frailty and disease, but also to repair and reverse the root causes of aging.

Everyone wants to live longer. We are constantly searching for new ways to add a few more years to our life.

We are constantly aware of our age, how to look younger, how to stay beautiful and desirable.

But only you know why you would want to live longer.

Some don’t care, others still want to see their off-spring thrive and be part of their lives. Others just want to be able to reach all the things they still want and do in life.

Decide if you want a long healthy high quality life, and if you do, then you should look at your health seriously..

Aging can be characterised as a three-stage process:

  • In the first stage, metabolic processes essential to life, produce toxins (an unavoidable side effect)
  • Secondly, a small amount of the damage caused by these toxins cannot be removed by the body’s endogenous repair systems, and consequently accumulates over time.
  • In the third stage, the accumulation of damage drives age-related pathology, either directly (by interfering with normal metabolism) or indirectly, often where a normally benevolent repair process causes collateral damage due to maladaptive overstimulation.

In future decades, researchers will assemble new biotechnologies that can defeat aging, restore the old to health and vigor, and prevent the young from ever suffering the ravages of age.

Some of these future therapies are already understood and envisioned in some detail, but remain in comparatively early stages of research. Others are just now starting to make the leap into clinical development.

For five years RDLhas been studying the discipline of longevity and from findings derived a complete longevity blueprint program that tackles the underlying causes of ageing, with solutions that addresses internal and external factors of ageing – with knowledge derived from Molecular Biology and Bio technologies.

And with this basic understanding of cells, DNA and genetics a holistic program for longevity and anti-ageing can be formulated according to best knowledge of this time.

Your Body Depends On You For Survival…

Each human being has been given a body that sustains life through a series of actions and interactions.

There are over 10 Trillion cells in your body each containing your specific DNA. DNA is a complete map of your body that lists the purpose, placement and function of all cells. DNA synthesis is not possible without the proper amounts of essential nutrients – so naturally, you would not want it to become damaged or hindered.

To function optimally, remain disease free and reverse ageing – humans need Over 100 essential nutrients:

70+ Minerals (the nuts and bolts that hold your body together)
16 Vitamins (essential for normal cell function, growth, and development)
21 Essential Amino Acids (the building blocks of life)
2-3 Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) (the building blocks of cell membranes – needed for energy, the skin, heart, eyes and the brain.)


Appropriate combinations of natural foods and supplements are extraordinarily valuable for counteracting forces of disease. When used properly – in the right dosage and frequency – they can be lifesaving.

Movement

Movement includes not only actions at the joints of the body – but also the motion of individual organs and even individual cells

As you read these words, red and white blood cells are moving throughout your body, muscle cells are contracting and relaxing to maintain your posture and to focus your vision, and glands are secreting chemicals to regulate body functions.

Your body is coordinating the action of entire muscle groups to enable you to move air into and out of your lungs, to push blood throughout your body, and to propel the food you have eaten through your digestive tract.

Consciously, of course, you contract your skeletal muscles to move the bones of your skeleton to get from one place to another and to carry out all of the activities of your daily life.

So firstly change your mindset right now from one of ‘I need to exercise to lose weight’ to one that says: ‘I exercise for my health not necessarily to lose weight’

Think of exercise as being movement – Movement for you, your body and body processes. And the more you move the better body system processes will become.

Cardiovascular and Aerobic Conditioning

Beneficial aerobic activities are defined as exercises that raise your heart rate to your target heart rate and maintain that level for a minimum of 20 minutes. While the most important aspect of aerobic exercise is sustained cardiovascular activity, there is an optimal heart level you should target.

For a cardiovascular workout, 70 to 85% of your maximum heart rate is the ideal range. Your maximum heart rate will depend on your age. You can easily find this number and pick your target heart rate based on your fitness level.

Aerobic exercise has many benefits. In combination with a healthy diet, it helps you lose weight and keep it off, reducing all the risks associated with being overweight. It strengthens your heart so it doesn’t have to beat as fast, lowers blood pressure and reduces bad cholesterol, lessening the risk of heart attack.  Aerobic conditioning also controls blood sugar, helping to manage diabetes.

Strength Training and Muscular Development

Strength training is a musculoskeletal exercise type that progressively increases the resistance muscles can overcome. Over time, this enlarges and strengthens the muscle themselves. Strength training improves your health in several ways. More muscle mass increases your metabolism, helping you burn more calories. This makes it easier to control your weight. Stronger muscles reduce the risk of injury during daily activities or other exercise.

Weight training also helps bone health. Bone density is at its height at about age thirty. By stressing the muscles, strength training increases bone density, which reduces the risk of developing osteoporosis and fractures.

Without regular strength training, you are probably losing muscle mass right now. A person loses half a pound of muscle every year after age 20, if not actively training. This rate of loss doubles after the age of 60. If you are not actively working on muscular development, you are losing the benefits associated with your metabolism and increasing the risk of injury due to strain and over-exertion.

Strength training and muscular development are critical to true health and fitness.

Stretching – Muscles, Ligaments and Tendons

Stretching is another important component of your fitness and wellbeing. Stretching should be done along with weight training or aerobic exercise at least two times a week.

Stretching works by increasing the muscles’, ligaments’ and tendons’ ability to elongate. By taking the time to stretch, and hence elongate your soft tissue, you can increase your flexibility.

While most exercises tend to tighten muscles, ligaments and tendons, stretching assists in keeping them flexible. This makes daily activities and exercise easier and safer. Stretching also improves your range of motion. Good range of motion makes moving limbs in their joints easier, including ones that could prevent or lessen the severity of falls or accidents.

Flexibility and the elongation of your body’s soft tissue will also improve blood circulation. This, in turn, will keep your muscles, ligaments and tendons supplied with oxygen so that they are able to recover more quickly from workouts or injury. Finally, stretching can relieve stress by relaxing the tense muscles that often accompany mental tension.

Core Stability

Core stabilisation involves strengthening the muscles that line your spine and make up your abdomen and pelvic floor. These muscles help control your posture, balance and the power and efficiency with which you move.

Since it is so important to posture and balance, many of the best exercises for core stability involve maintaining body positions. More specifically, core strengthening typically involves placing the body in a position where the core muscles are required for the body to maintain that position for a certain time interval.

Having strong core muscles makes athletic exercise easier and safer, since power comes from the trunk of the human body and greater core stability creates smoother, more coordinated movement.

Core strength training is also excellent in correcting bad posture. This can minimise and even prevent injuries associated with general physical activity. Finally, core strength is required for most explosive movements that are performed across most active sports.

Stress Management

Stress management processes and tools allow you Take Control And stop the stress-burnout cycle
It’s not the stressors that are causing your defence mechanisms to activate; it’s your reaction to them. Clearly, there are external factors that drive stress, from overload to family challenges, but how you respond to them and how you manage that are key.

Get Stress Management Skills
If you don’t challenge it, it can turn into chronic stress and then over time into burnout, which strips away all your coping resources, physical, mental, and emotional. This can lead to serious health consequences, including cancer, stroke and depression.

The key to managing stress is control. The less control you feel, the more stress. The more overwhelmed and out of control you feel, the more stress.

Stress management coaching gives you skills to control stress triggers and reactions, because you CAN cope.

Learn how to manage the thoughts and emotions that fuel stress and get strategies to:

• Reframe and deactivate stress triggers
• Stop the hidden engine of stress: rumination
• Change self-talk and explanatory style
• Build coping resources and resilience
• Control crisis mentality and time pressure
• Deploy the most effective tension reduction processes and systems
• Improve time management and set boundaries
• Increase optimism and positive emotions
