Our physiological processes remain at a fairly constant level
of efficiency until we approach old age, at which time they undergo
a drastic decline.
|
Most of our bodily functions reach their maximum capacity prior
to or during early adulthood and begin a gradual decline thereafter.
|
Most adults past age 65 are so physically incapacitated that
they must depend to a great extent on other people.
|
Helplessness and dependency are not characteristic of old age.
About 87 percent of adults over 65 are able to cope more than adequately
with the demands of everyday living.
|
Taking large doses of antioxidants (ginseng, selenium, pantothenic
acid, or vitamin C) will extend your life.
|
There are no drugs, pills, powders, vitamins, dietary supplements,
or diets with proven anti-aging capacities.
