Anti-Aging
Anti-Aging is
now a reality, due to our understanding of cellular function,
cell rejuvenation, and cellular protection. Patients are evaluated
for signs of accelerated aging for their age group. Indications
may be, hair-loss, thin skin, accumulation of lip fusion in the
skin, muscle loss, fat increase, ( especially in the trunk) decreased
reflexes, short-term memory loss, chemical changes, poor circulation,
loss of libido, just to name a few.
After a thorough
evaluation, treatment may consist of nutrients to protect and
revitalize the cells, fatty acids, amino acids, enzymes, anti
oxidants, cellular respirators are but a few of the possibilities.
Chelation therapy is a fast, effective, inexpensive way to improve
circulation. and remove calcium deposits from the cell while
re-establishing the magnesium balance.
All hormones
decline with age, levels dropping to 1/2 or less by age 50. The
acceleration of the aging process becomes quite evident after
age 50. Most women go through menopause at age 50, men show signs
of loss of testosterone at the same age. By using natural hormone
replacement the levels can be restored to levels of younger aged
people.
What is Natural
Hormone replacement therapy?
(HRT) means
that the chemical makeup of the replacement hormone is exactly
the same as what the human body produces. The ideal natural substance
for hormone replacement therapy are readily available. Bio-identical
plant-derived estrogen and progesterone product have been safely
prescribed by European physicians for over 5o years. These natural
hormones are almost entirely without the side effects of the
synthetic or semi synthetic HRT drugs which do not allow a person
to produce the full range of other hormones which are needed
for the body to function at full potential.
Unfortunately,
many doctors are unaware of these natural hormones. Since natural
hormones can not be patented, manufacturers lack financial incentive
to fund research and development costs to commercially market
these substances, and physicians receive little information on
natural progesterone, estriol, estradiol, estrone, and androgens.
Women are
no longer willing to accept the risks associated with synthetic
hormones, and are searching for safer alternatives. New research
is continually emerging, An estimated two million women are now
benefiting from natural "plant-derived bio-identical" estrogens
and progesterone.
Osteoporosis,
heart disease, endometriosis, PMS, pre-menopausal symptoms, weight
gain, low libido, fibrocystic breasts- most women will experience
these or other hormone - related problems. Today, millions of
women concerned about aging must decide whether or not to undergo
synthetic hormone replacement therapy and suffer its side effects
and increased risks of cancer. As we consider the benefit to
risk ratio, we must take into account new evidence and ongoing
research about alternatives to traditional therapy.
Various dosage
forms can be compounded to meet the specific needs of each woman.
Options include:
- Tran dermal
or trans-mucosal dosage forms such as gels, troches, or suppositories.
Non-oral absorption avoids first pass liver metabolism, providing
a more reliable extent of absorption which is independent of
liver function.
- Capsules
containing micron zed particles for enhanced oral absorption.
- Many unique
formulations to meet each women's specific needs.
