Targeting the Ultimate Sources of Aging

Have you ever wondered why some people age faster than others? Aging may be inevitable but the rate of aging is not. Have you ever heard comments like,”He’s a very young 75” or, “She’s 40 going on 80?” Why is it that some people look much younger than they actually are? The answer to that is genetics, the ultimate sources of aging.

Scientist have long believed that biological aging results from changes links to hormones or genes within the body, and is particularly noticeable in the appearance of our skin.

Studies have shown that the accumulation of genetic damage in our cells is a major contributor to how we age and that the speed of our aging process is entirely dependent on our management of this DNA damage accumulation over time.

While this fact has been known for years, there were not many strategies to counter the effects due to the lack of knowledge in how these molecules work. As such, majority of products and technologies on the market only deal with the signs of aging and not the sources of aging.

However, scientists have now discovered that not all DNA are created equal and that certain areas of DNA play an important role in aging. Nu Skin have discovered that the ultimate sources of aging lie in a group of genes we call Youth Gene Clusters (YGCs), whose level of activity determines how we express aging. The key is increasing the level of activity of the ‘good’ genes (expresses youthful attributes) and reducing the level of activities of the ‘bad’ genes (expresses attributes of aging). In order to bring out the youthfulness from within, ageLOC™ technology focuses on three steps: Target, Identify and Reset.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Target

Through our partnership with Lifegen Technologies, a US-based genomics company opened up over 30 years of experience in research into the genetic basis of aging, Nu Skin was able to target the ultimate sources of aging at a genetic level.

Identify

After a meaningful search of the Human Genome, Nu Skin was able to locate the group of genes (Youth Gene Clusters) that are responsible for aging.

Reset

Armed with this knowledge, Nu Skin partnered with Stanford University to incorporate ageLOC™ science into product development, resulting in innovative products that reset or “re-balance” the activity of these YGCs.

Science of ageLOC™



Once re-balanced, our bodies will naturally express a more youthful appearance, whether in the suppleness of our skin, evenness in skin tone, skin hydration, among others

Nu Skin had incorporated ageLOC™ science into its skin care products as well as nutritional supplements to target the ultimate sources of aging and help everyone in their live young quest.

ageLOC R2 – Renew Recharge

Image
ageLOC R2 (pronounced "R Squared"), which is developed using patent ageLOC technology,  is going to be available in Oct 2011. ageLOC is the only science that target the genetic level of aging.   It can  identify, target and reset our Young Gene Clusters and stop aging from its source. ageLOC R2 ageLOC R2 is the second supplement product that reset aging from inside of our body (ageLOC Vitality being the first in the world) . While Vitality targets the 52 Youth Gene Clusters that affect the brain, heart and muscles, R2 is targeted toward cell purification, and elimination of metabolic waste using natural plant compounds. R2 will have a specific effect on the inflammatory pathways It functions in two ways: ageLOC R2 RECHARGE and RENEW In the day time, ageLOC R2 recharge our physical energy, mental clarity, sexual drive and overall vitality. In the night, ageLOC R2 renew our body by detoxing and purify. With age, the cellular purification syst

Dangers of Hidden (Visceral) Fat

Image
by Dr C.S. Foo Men turn into apples and women become pears. The twin factors of sedentary lifestyle and one meal too many lead to an expanding waistline, facilitated by male hormones. Females put on weight around the hips, buttocks and thighs. Interestingly, when the ovarian door closes in menopause, the distribution of fat becomes concentrated in the abdomen, once again auguring well for sexual equality. The body mass index (BMI) is popularly used to gauge obesity, but one can have normal BMI and yet carry unseen excess fat. Why all this fuss about fats? Obesity is obviously linked to a host of maladies but it is the dangers of hidden fat that needs to be urgently unmasked. Fat Cells There are an estimated 40 billion fat cells (adipocytes) in the adult body, soaring to thrice that level in some cases. Each fat cell contains essentially a large droplet of fat, much like a balloon filled with liquid. It was thought that fat (adipose tissue) is merely a passive sto

Lose Weight and Gain Health with The Right Approach

Image
For most people, obesity results from eating too much and not being active enough. Reducing calories is one way for weight loss and regular exercise is another. Nu Skin’s The Right Approach (TRA™) Weight Management Program is a patented and scientifically tested weight loss program that combines supplements, nutrition management and exercise. People who go on TRA™ will be encouraged to exercise and practice portion control where they can eat their normal diet but following a unique 3333 diet rule. On top of that, they could also take meal replacements to control their calorie intake and consume supplements to control their carbohydrate cravings, absorb fats in the digestive tract, increase their body metabolism and burn fat. Why do we gain excess kilos as we age? Here are the major reasons: • Being less active • Not maintaining muscles through strength training • Increased calorie intake even as metabolism slows down • Gradual loss of body cells which leads to burning
