The adoption of hygienic and healthy dietary habits stop the oxidation process, the main cause of the changes caused by age.

Only in some Aging is a natural process that may delay, as Jesus said Professor Tresguerres, Professor of Endocrinology at the University Complutense of Madrid.

According to this research, aging and genetic factors influence both changes within the body “on which we can act. Aging produces a series of bodily changes and a progressive decline in physiological functions. Increases fat is reduced muscle mass and produces a general deterioration in all functions, cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, etc..

The most widespread and accepted theory to explain this whole process is oxidative stress, according to which, with age the body produces, on the one hand, more free radicals that have the power to oxidize slowly, what makes us grow old and second, the immune system produces fewer of antioxidants, which limits our protection against aging, “said Professor Tresguerres.

Research conducted by the expert in the last eight years have shown that you can modify the rate of aging partially reversible by some features of this deterioration. “Thus, we have found that certain treatments can partially restore all functions: the skin regenerates, enhances immune competence, less memory is lost, etc..

Anti-aging therapy is mainly based on the adoption of healthy lifestyles. “These habits are focused, first, in carrying out light physical exercise (walking, swimming, cycling, jogging) three times a week in the restriction of calorie intake (in experimental treatments have been shown to reduced intake by 30% is associated with an increase of 50% survival), the consumption of fruits and vegetables, especially those containing vitamin C and E, and the reduction of harmful habits such as snuff and alcohol, and if needed in some cases, certain compounds are recommended as melatonin or other hormones.

Should be started on anti-aging therapies 50. As noted by Professor Tresguerres, “is not the same start this treatment at 80 than 50. We can prevent a slight deterioration and even modify it but you can not stop a worsening. Moreover, evidence indicates that the earlier start , best results are obtained.

Tresguerres noted that this is not to live more years, but whether we’re going to live better and live them with higher quality.
