When I was 35 or so, a friend introduced an idea to me. Recently she had noticed that her turning 40 meant that men stopped looking at her and that people in general no longer paid much attention to her. I thought this was a wild generalization and it wouldn’t or couldn’t happen to me.
I have seen many people in my practice who come in saying they stopped walking, hiking, taking fitness classes or even biking due to knee pain that just came about with no injury. Many just chalked it up to ageing and getting older, thinking that this is just what happens and that they need to find a new activity. Well, know that this is not always the case!
None of us like to be told we look older than we are. Yes, we can put fillers and Botox to reduce fine lines and sagging necks but where we really should start is by looking at our diets.
What if you could rejuvenate your health and cells in your body, for “less-than-free”? This sounds a bit like a sales pitch, but there is some impressive science behind it. Let’s think about the process of recycling and in this context, cell recycling. In scientific terms there is a concept called “autophagy”, which I’ll refer to as self-recycling.
