The Fountain
of Youth...
Most people reluctantly accept the fact
that their bodies will start to wear out
around the age of 60 years old, but
modern science is beginning to prove
what common sense has known all along:
exercise will keep you in great shape no
matter what your age.
Researchers are investigating whether
exercise, can indeed, influence aging in
the body. In particular, they are
looking at whether exercise lengthens
telomeres, the strands of DNA at the
tips of chromosomes. When telomeres get
too short, cells can no longer divide
and then become inactive, a process
associated with aging, cancer and a
higher risk of death.
In a study published in November in
Circulation, the medical journal of the
American Heart Association, German
researchers compared two groups of
professional athletes (32 of whom were
in their early 20s, and 25 who were
middle-aged) with two groups (26 young
and 21 middle-aged) who were healthy
non-smokers, but not regular exercisers.
The athletes had significantly less
erosion in telomeres than their more
sedentary counterparts. The study
concluded that physical activity has an
anti-aging effect at the cellular level,
suggesting exercise could prevent aging
of the cardiovascular system.

Getting
Lean with Protein
The
Benefits of Protein
If you’ve ever spent any time
around a gym, you’re sure to
have seen advertisement after
advertisement for high
carbohydrate/ high protein
“post-workout recovery drinks”.
Most likely it’s a fitness model
with an absurdly low body fat
smiling because now he or she is
experiencing the benefits of a
post workout endorphin rush and
the immediate energy boost of at
least 50 grams of carbohydrates
(IE: SUGAR).
However, I have a bombshell I’m
going to have to drop on you;
some companies have been known
to hire models to promote their
products and influence us to
buy. And sometimes these
companies will even hire models
who have never even used their
product. And in the case of
these models, I can almost
assure you, that anyone walking
around with a sub 5% body fat
hasn’t reached that goal with
excess sugar flowing through
their arteries, even if it’s
right after even the most
intense of workouts. These high
carbohydrate/high protein drinks
are depicted as the solution to
low energy levels after your
workout, but actually they are
what’s keeping most people from
realizing their ideal body
composition.
