What does Anti-Aging Mean... Exactly?
By: Don Pasco
What does anti-aging
mean exactly? I know that "anti" means against or opposed
to something, right?
So I suppose anti-aging would mean against or opposed
to aging.
Well, I don t think
I m against or opposed to aging. Just out of curiosity
I looked up anti-aging in the dictionary and here is
the formal definition I found: Delaying or lessening
the effects of aging, especially on the skin: an anti-aging
cream.
Well, I don t know about the anti-aging cream part,
but the first part does seem much more accurate and
palatable. I wouldn t want to think that I am opposed
to aging. I don t think that would be a very healthy
attitude. But if I were to hear of anything to reverse
aging , I must admit I d be all ears. LOL (laugh out
loud)
I suppose most of us over the age of 40 are interested
in delaying or lessening the effects of aging. It s
perfectly natural to want to look and feel our best.
Whether we use anti-aging creams, as suggested in our
formal definition, or any other anti-aging solution
to accomplish that end, it just shows that we care about
our appearance, and to me, that is a healthy attitude!
Beside the anti-aging creams we ve already mentioned,
there are many other anti-aging products on the market
today. In researching this article here are some of
the related keywords that I found:
- anti-aging supplements
(sometimes referred to as anti-aging vitamins), which
I surmise is also related to anti-aging nutrition;
- anti-aging human
growth hormone;(sometimes
referred to as HGH or anti-aging hgh),
- anti aging medicine;
- anti aging research;
- anti aging balm
lip mask;
- anti aging skin
care treatment;
- anti aging cosmetic;
- anti aging wrinkle
cream;
- anti aging facial
cream;
So from this short
list it is obvious that anti aging skin care or facial
products are dominating the market for anti aging products.
It s also obvious that our faces are places that can
make us or break us when it comes to looking good for
our age
or not so good for our age.
However, there are other factors that can contribute
greatly to an anti-aging program. For example, the discoloration
of our teeth can make us look much older. Why not purchase
some Crest Whitestrips? I did, and they worked great!
Also, how about an anti-aging exercise routine to keep
our weight where it belongs?
I once heard someone
say something like, after the age of 40, for every 5
pounds that we are overweight, it adds a year to our
appearance. So if you were 25 lbs. overweight at the
age of 41 you d appear to be about 46! Oouch!
We all have the ability to look and feel younger. Spend
a little time thinking of an anti-aging plan that suits
you and remember the things that make us look older
and younger our weight, our skin, our teeth, our hair
and there are plenty of anti-aging products or services
for each.
Sometimes a new hairstyle can work wonders! (Guys, this
one most likely applies more to women)
Don't even think about a comb over. LOL (laugh out loud)
