We’ve heard for years about the benefits of reducing Stress, and how we should make time for activities like meditation, Yoga, and plain old relaxation. Now scientific evidence suggests that one of those benefits may actually be a longer life. Researchers at the University of California at San Francisco have discovered an enzyme that plays a key role in normal cell function, as well as in cell Aging and most cancers. It’s called telomerase, and it produces tiny units of DNA that seal off the ends of chromosomes, which contain the body’s genes. The DNA units are called telomeres, and among other things they work to protect the quality of the gene, and how often a cell divides which determines the lifespan of the cells. What’s exciting about this discovery is the notion that telomeres can be lengthened to prolong cell life — and along the way treat age-related diseases like blindness, cardiovascular problems and neurodegenerative disorders.

Chinese scientists have found that vitamin C boosts the reprogramming of adult cells into stem cells, according to a new study published on Dec 24 by Cell Press in the journal Cell Stem Cell.

The study led by Dr. Duanqing Pei from the South China Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine in Guangzhou, China found that vitamin C when it was applied to both mouse and human cells enhanced the regeneration of induced pluripotent stem cells or IPSCs.

IPSCs are embryonic like stem cells regenerated from adult cells. Certain adult cells have been known to be potentially reprogrammed to be transformed into some type stem cells, which scientists hope may be used in the future to grow tissue and or organs for medical applications.

Unfortunately, the process for the regeneration of stem cells of this type is not efficient enough. The scientists believed that reactive oxygen species or otherwise known as ROS during the reprogramming may be a factor that affects the efficiency.

You may eat your fruits and veggies. You may even pop a multi every day. Yet your skin care routine is still missing out on the value of vitamins. Research shows that these nutrients are essential for preventing and reversing many signs of aging. A well-balanced diet is important, of course — eating a variety of healthy foods helps keep skin supple and glowing. But the fact is, “the body delivers only a certain percentage of vitamins to your skin, no matter how much you ingest,” says Mary Lupo, MD, clinical professor of dermatology at Tulane University School of Medicine. Plus, there’s no way to send them straight to your crow’s feet or brown spots. The solution: Applying vitamins topically to deliver maximum anti-aging benefits — everything from improving texture and tone to fading under-eye circles. Follow this user’s guide to the letter, and soon your skin will look better than ever.

Taking multivitamin supplements is an especially good idea for two groups of people. First, anyone who is not eating a balanced diet should consider taking a multivitamin supplement. If you are not eating the recommended servings of fruits, vegetables, grains, dairy and meat, you may not be getting enough vitamin C,calcium, vitamin A, zinc, iron, and all of the B vitamins. This includes vegetarians and people on weight-loss diets. For this group of people, it is important to look for 100 percent of the daily value of vitamin D, B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, and folic acid when selecting a multivitamin supplement. Second, multivitamin supplements are a good idea for those over the age of 60. Most elderly people do not get sufficient nutrients and the process of aging itself makes it difficult to absorb certain nutrients. The primary areas of vitamin deficiency for elderly people are vitamin D, C, B6, B12, folic acid, zinc, calcium, and magnesium. Since elderly people may need higher doses of these particular vitamins, it may be best to look for a multivitamin that is tailored to older people. Centrum Silver, for one, is a highly acclaimed multivitamin supplement for people 50 years of age or older. Please note that if you have any serious chronic medical conditions, you may have special requirements and should consult your doctor before taking a multivitamin supplement.

Check out this article by ABC News to learn more about the power of Aloe — and when you’re done reading, check out the informational video at the end of this post.

From ABC News

For thousands of years, humans have turned to a cactus-like plant that has mysterious abilities to heal wounds.

But aloe vera, a succulent that is actually a member of the lily family, has often been shunned by the scientific community because no one could figure out how this native of northern Africa could work its miracles.

Now, scientists are inching closer to understanding why the cooling liquid from the fat leaf of an aloe vera plant can make the hurt go away.

It doesn’t take a pharmaceutical company to make it work. The plant does it all by itself, which is why the ancient Egyptians turned to it more than 3,500 years ago, and the ancient Greeks and others used it to heal wounds and even clear up constipation.

Gooey and Nutritious

The picture is still a bit murky, because every researcher who tackles the problem seems to come up with a different answer. Some say the gooey gel from inside the leaf reduces inflammation, thus helping the healing process, and there is substantial evidence that’s at least part of the equation.

The PA periodontists in Dr. David DiGiallorenzo’s Collegeville and Williamsport practice recently began offering two lines of nutritional supplements to patients as a means of promoting the connection between good nutrition and improved periodontal health.

DiGiallorenzo, a PA dental implants specialist, introduced Isagenix and NuVerus because studies have shown that nutritional supplements can help patients improve their immune systems and fight gum infections.

“We use the Isagenix Cleanse and NuVerus’s Euphoria protocol to strengthen immunity, improve digestion, build proteins, reduce inflammation and remove toxins from the body,” said the PA periodontist. “All of these factors are crucial when dealing with chronic inflammatory diseases such as periodontal disease, cardiovascular disease, rheumatoid arthritis and a variety of other conditions.”
