so I had a question from someone who made a comment on one of the YouTube

videos and they wanted to know about the anti-aging creams if they should use

those and do they actually work and the answer is no I’m sorry

they don’t make your skin any younger what they do is make your skin a little

bit tighter and they do add more hydration on a temporary basis but not

actually younger and in one study which I’ll put down below found that the

anti-aging creams will reduce your wrinkles by less than 10 percent over 12

weeks 10 percent is not even noticeable to the human eye so you’re you’re not

going to really see too much so what is the solution is there a way to reverse

the aging process or at least slow it down and the answer is yes if you

understand the simple concept of inside out versus outside and there’s no way

you’re gonna actually try to get the body younger by applying something

topically or trying to work from the outside in it really comes from the

inside out and it’s combination of several things

but you really want to look at the balance of how much oxidation is going

on or things that are breaking your tissues down or destroying your DNA

versus the antioxidants in the body which are countering all this free

radical damage and just so you know a free radical is an unpaired electron so

let’s say for example we have this atom right here that’s supposed to be

spinning around and it only has one electron it doesn’t have the pair of

electron over here okay it’s missing what happens it makes the atom very very

unstable and so it can create destruction to the body and an

antioxidant will donate an electron to stabilize this to create less damage and

there’s two sources of antioxidants one is exogenous that means outside the body

from your diet you’re eating leafy vegetables you’re eating cruciferous

vegetables it is giving you antioxidants and also vitamins act as antioxidants

vitamin E vitamin A vitamin C even vitamin b1 can act as

an antioxidant and they always come in networks because when an antioxidant

donates its electron it then becomes unstable and it can create some problems

so it will borrow an electron from another antioxidant so they come in

networks so you have the food that you eat with antioxidants okay that’s called

exogenous then you have endogenous antioxidants your body actually can make

and the oxidants so that’s cool so the combination of both need to be in such

quantity to counter the amount of oxidation coming in from the environment

and from your diet that’s just making things break down and making you age

prematurely so what can make this worse the big thing is glucose high carb diets

that will trigger insulin which will then combine with certain proteins in

your body and cause this other phenomena called glycation so when you combine

sugar with a protein it creates a protein that’s now non-functional and

that’s going to make your your tissues less elastic and that’s going to make

you look a lot older and another term for that is advanced glycation end

products and that is created by glucose having a high amount of glucose in the

diet the other thing that’s interesting is nutritional deficiencies can fail to

supply certain biochemical enzymes that are supposed to repair and keep your

tissue stable at the cellular level so nutrition is a really key part in

slowing the aging process down faster than it’s going so the worst case

scenario is this combination between a high carb diet and low nutrients that’s

going to age your skin it’s gonna make you look older it’s going to age the

inside of the body and on the flip side of that if you switch your fuel from

glucose to ketones ketones act as an antioxidant which is really really cool

so it’s a much healthier fuel source and I always recommend the healthy version

of the ketogenic diet so that way we can actually add the nutrients from the food

to prevent the free radical damage and keep your skin and your tissues looking

healthy so there’s also hormones involved they hormone that you really

want to preserve is growth hormone growth hormone is all about anti-aging

it’s all about keeping your proteins intact and I’m talking about the skin

the hair the nails the inside of the body growth hormone is responsible for

that as we age growth hormone goes down we want to keep it as high as possible

so there are certain things that lower growth hormone and there’s certain

things that will increase it glucose by the way will lower our growth hormone

insulin will lower growth hormone so high carbohydrate diets stay away from

them cortisol from stress will also inhibit growth hormone cortisol is very

destructive on your proteins on your skin and it will aid you in an

accelerated rate alcohol is another thing that is very dehydrating it will

inhibit growth hormone it will make you look old alright so how do we raise

growth hormone well exercise okay but make sure you don’t over train if you

exercise correctly with them enough recovery you can spike growth from about

five to seven hundred percent so that’s one key factor regular exercise plus the

exercise can if done correctly reduced the cortisol to stress and then fast and

fasting is probably one of the most important things if you wanted to slow

down the aging process and look younger also when you do periodic prolonged

fasting you stimulate stem cells stem cells actually help you regrow new

tissue like your immune system your gut your skin so fasting is probably one of

the biggest things that can help you look younger it can stimulate growth

hormone by thirteen hundred to two thousand percent and then we have sleep

sleep is another key factor to enhancing growth hormones so if you do

intermittent fasting and prolong fasting you get enough sleep you keep your

stress down you exercise you do healthy keto that is your best bet to slow down

the aging process but to actually think that you can actually do it with a cream

it’s just not going to work alright guys thanks for watching

and check out a couple of these very interesting videos I have related to

growth hormone
