Secrets of longevity – Part III
The natural secrets of longevity – Part III
The saturation of the cells with oxygen is the last secret of eternal youth!
According to the scientists the aging process results from the process of oxidation in the human organism. The aging of our bodies is caused by an internal struggle between two cell factors, which influence on a third factor: the intensity and the continuation similar to the radiation effects – polyunsaturated fat, on which they have an effect, and protect from complete decomposition, and according to them the aging reduces the saturation of cells with oxygen, and due to increased acid in our cells substances called free radicals are formed.
These free radicals have a decomposing effect, on the normal cell metabolism, causing injury and accelerate the aging process. Recent scientific discoveries by the scientists McCormick, Johan Borksten, Roger Williams and others, show that the process of aging and degenerative changes of the skin - wrinkles, relaxation, de-colorization, and others – are generated by the physiological changes of collagen, which connects all the cells and tissues in the body, especially in the skin, muscles, tissues of internal organs and the glands. The lack of vitamin C leads to disruption of the collagen, and consequently to instability and fragility of the tissues. The skin becomes relaxed, wrinkles appear early, the eyes lose their shine, and the lips lose their juiciness.
COULD REALITY BE SO BRUTAL?
It is quite certain that you would live much longer when you will eat much less. Wild animals had to spend their time and energy on searching for food. People, in their primitive times of life, had spent most of their time and energy on hunting, gathering food, fruits, berries, seeds and nutritious plants. However, 10.000 years ago when people began to engage in agriculture and farming, it was a real revolution. People did not have to spend all their time in search for food, and then some of them became aware about the new tools, the movement of heavenly bodies, the language, and the meaning of life.
The advancement of civilization had begun, and the next big leap came with the industrial revolution, when machines freed people from physical effort, and then, unfortunately, has began the sitting way of life. The revolution, which lasts in the past two centuries, has been associated with the possibility for selecting the right food – with the diversity and quantity that should enable optimal health, longevity and a pleasant life freed from the problems that cause various diseases. But, unfortunately this is not true.
The abundant diet, with the consumption of Fast food and Junk food, are far from healthy and optimal nutrition. And we forget the facts that: during the evolution of man, he has lost his ability to produce on his own, some important antioxidants such as: vitamin C and beta-carotene, whose role is to make the free radicals not harmful. However, there are some other antioxidants, such as melatonin and some enzyme-systems, which form a strong defense system against extremely destructive hydrosol-free-radicals, which are considered to be the most active and the most dangerous. These radicals are the most dangerous for our cells, mainly for the brain, in which fat represents 50 percent and are very susceptible to free radicals. As always, nature does not make mistakes, so it positioned the cone-like gland to lie in the middle of the brain, an ideal place for melatonin synthesis and secretion, in order to be tied to the frightening hydroxyl free radicals. For melatonin, it can be said that it is the last line of defense against the free radicals.
