Top Anti-Aging Tips for a Healthy Mind, Body and Spirit

Americans are getting older every minute and life expectancy is ever-increasing. People leading full productive lives after the age of retirement are no longer a “wow.” Most baby boomers want to live active lives and learn how to enjoy a fulfilling active life. Here are 10 tips to help you stay younger, fitter and functional.

1. Drink six to eight glasses of water each day. Hydrate skin, nourish it, and prevent wrinkles.
2. Stretch and strengthen your legs. Doing calf raises and tiptoe walking every other day improves circulation and helps prevents spider veins.
3. Incorporate upper-body exercises. Lift mini dumbbells, and stretch back muscles. This protects against osteoporosis.
4. Strengthen your abs five days a week. Sit-ups enhance blood flow to vital organs, repairing tissue damage.
5. Add aerobic exercise. Keep your heart and lungs youthful and fit.
6. Choose aerobics that enhance brain power. Jogging, bicycling, and speed walking sharpen memory and increase attention span.
7. Use diaphragmatic breathing. Inhale through your nose so debris and pollutants are filtered from the air.
8. Eat baked, broiled, or grilled salmon two times per week. Its omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins combat disease-causing free radicals.
9. Try colorful vegetables. Dark green vegetables have cancer-fighting properties and vitamin C to boost your immune system. Tomatoes are also on this “fighter veggies” list.
10. Enjoy fresh fruit for dessert. These also combat the cell damage that causes premature aging.
