Anti-aging Strategies
This
is summary of over 100 specific anti-aging strategies
that took over a decade to compile. Every
strategy is based on scientific research backed by years of clinical experience.
They are grouped according to the five pillars of
anti-aging medicine: Diet, Exercise, Hormonal Enhancement, Nutritional Supplement,
and Stress Reduction. Click
here for the long version.
Those new to this should read this daily for the
first 21 days. A thorough understanding of each strategy is critical
before embarking on the journey. Do not adapt any strategy unless you know the
reason and the consequences. Certain strategies are uniquely suited for you while
others may not. Do what makes sense for you and
you alone, as each body is different.
Do not attempt any quick transformation.
Most transformation fails because of too high an expectation in too limited a
time. Go slow, one step at a time. Your body has
gone through a lifetime of damage. Recovery and rejuvenation is a process that
works best when slow and steady. The path to anti-aging is a marathon and not
a sprint.
Complete fulfillment of these strategies requires significant lifestyle adjustments
for most. No one is expected to adopt 100 percent of the recommended strategies
all the time. A successful execution of the
anti-aging strategies takes generally from 1 to 3 years. Consider yourself
doing well if you can follow 25% of the strategies within 90 to 180 days, 50 %
of the strategies within 1 to 2 years, and 75% of the strategies within 2 to 3
years. The body is a miraculous machine. It is very forgiving and does rejuvenate,
starting at the cellular level.
Expect to see some results 30 to 90 days
after you have embarked on the strategies you have chosen. Select
easy strategies first and slowly work your way into more difficult ones.
Rome is not built in one day. Concentrate on learning, listening, and loving your
body and it will take care of you.
While there is no absolute in
life, it should be remembered that the law of averages still apply in anti-aging.
Most
· People who smoke don't get lung cancer.
· People who forget their seat belts don't die in traffic accidents.
· People who have unprotected sex don't contract AIDS.
· People who go on diets don't become anorexic.
· People who are sun worshippers don't get skin cancer.
Nevertheless, those who follow these anti-aging strategies statistically will
generally feel
· Younger
· Healthier
· Lighter
· More energetic

Our life expectancy has already doubled in the past century, from 43 to 76 for
those in developed countries. This is largely due to discovery of antibiotics
and successful execution of anti-aging strategies such as these. They have worked
in the past and will continue to work in the future. Longevity is 70 percent is
determined by lifestyle and 30 percent related to genetics. What you can do is
to work on the lifestyle related 70 percent today, since therapeutic modalities
for the other genetically related 30 percent is still years away from reality.
Diet
Vegetables:
Do
+ Do eat more organic
vegetables Do eat more
organic vegetables (they taste better and has 3 times more nutrient). The stronger
the color, the better it is.
+ Do eat kale, spinach, green and red cabbage, broccoli,
red and green leaf lettuce, romaine lettuce, cauliflower, zucchini, Chinese cabbage,
bok choy, and cucumbers. Do eat kale, spinach, green and red cabbage,
broccoli, red and green leaf lettuce, romaine lettuce, cauliflower, zucchini,
Chinese cabbage, bok choy, and cucumbers. These are all vegetables grown above
the ground and are high in antioxidants, minerals, vitamins, and fiber.
+ Do rinse your vegetables Do rinse your
vegetables well to kill germs and spin it down well to prolong shelf life. Wash
all fresh fruits and vegetables with cool tap water immediately before eating.
Don't use soap on them. Scrub firm produce such as melons and cucumbers with a
clean produce brush. Cut away any bruised or damaged areas before eating.
+ Do squeeze the air out Do squeeze the
air out of the bag if you intent to store vegetables. Fresh produce should be
refrigerated within two hours of peeling or cutting.
Do Not
+ Do not eat iceberg lettuce. Do not eat
iceberg lettuce. It is mostly water, low in fiber and nutrition
+ Do not eat underground vegetables
Do not eat underground
vegetables such as carrots, yams, and potatoes that are high in sugar (high glycemic
index) that can trigger diabetes. Mash potato is acceptable due to the addition
of fat and milk during the cooking process.
Grains and sugar:
Do Not
+ Do not take refined sugar. Do not take
refined sugar. Sugar addition is common and socially acceptable. It reduces your
immune system function. Sugar in your food goes rapidly to your blood. When there
is excess sugar in your blood, your liver may use it to make more triglycerides.
This contributes to higher blood serum triglycerides, cholesterol, promoting obesity
due to higher fatty acid storage around organs and in subcutaneous tissue folds.
Over consumption of sugar is the leading cause of diabetes, heart attack, and
cancer.
+Do not take high glycemic index grains such as rice,
wheat, and corn Do not take high glycemic index grains such as rice,
wheat, and corn They cause a sugar spike increase in the blood and contribute
to diabetes, obesity, and heart disease.If high glycemic food is combined with
protein and fat in a meal (such as pizza), the glycemic index is lowered,
resulting in a slower release of sugar into the bloodstream.
+Do not take corn or corn related products
Do not take corn or corn related products such as popcorn ( hard to digest and
of minimal nutritive value), chips (high in fat). Corn is not a vegetable but
a grain.
+ Do not take artificial sugar Do not take
artificial sugar such as aspartame and artificial flavoring such as MSG. Both
contain chemicals that produce well documented to damage your body.
Protein
Do
+ Do get protein from beans and legumes
Do get protein from beans and legumes - make sure beans are well soaked for 48-72
hours to help digestion and cooked thoroughly in a crock-pot for at least 8 hour
to break down harmful toxins.
+ Do get protein from raw seeds Do get
protein from raw seeds such as sunflower, pumpkin, sesame, and flax. The amount
should be limited because these are also high in fat
+ Do
get protein in limited amount from raw nuts Do get protein in
limited amount from raw nuts such as Brazil nuts, cashews, and almonds. The amount
should be limited because these are also high in fat
+ Do
get protein from organic egg Do get protein from organic egg that
comes from organic fed free range chicken. Egg white is one of the best and cheapest
source of protein.
+ Do
get protein from cold and deep water fish Do get protein from
cold and deep water fish such as salmon and tuna. Avoid fish from costal waters
that are easily contaminated with toxins such as mercury.
+ Do
get protein from lean meat from animal Do get protein from lean
meat from animal . Lean meat from grass fed cattle not commercially raised grain
fed cattle is preferred.
Do Not
+ Do
not get protein from scavengers Do not get protein from scavengers
such as pork, ham, most bacon, shellfish, shrimp, lobster, crabs, and clams. They
are often contaminated.
+ Do
not get protein from processed, cured, smoked, or dried meats
Do not get protein from processed, cured, smoked, or dried meats, such as bacon,
sausage, ham, hot dogs, or luncheon meats.
+ Do
not get protein from peanuts. Do not get protein from peanuts.
Its is high in fat and often allergenic.
+ Do
not get protein from soy Do not get protein from soy unless it
is fermented such as tempeh or miso.
+ Do
get protein from lean meat from animal Don't get protein from diary
products including milk and cheese. Pasteurization is the problem as it destroys
the nutrients and changes the structure of many enzymes. Cheese in small amount
is acceptable. Yogurt from pasteurized milk should also be avoided
Fruits
Do
+ Do
eat whole fruits high in fiber and low in sugar Do eat whole fruits
high in fiber and low in sugar, but only in moderate amount, such as blueberry
and apple.
+ Do
peel all fruits and vegetables Do peel all fruits and vegetables,
unless they are to be thoroughly cooked. Wash your hands afterwards. If you cannot
peel them, soak them for fifteen minutes in a solution made by adding one teaspoon
of three per cent hydrogen peroxide to two quarts of water and then rinsing thoroughly
with filtered water
Do Not
+ Do
not eat bananas or watermelon Do not eat bananas or watermelon
that is high in sugars and limited in fibers.
Fat and Cholesterol
Do
+ Do
eat plenty of deep and cold water fish Do eat plenty of deep and
cold water fish like tuna and salmon that contains plentiful supply of omega-3
essential fatty acid
+ Do
take flex seed Do take flex seed, raw sunflower and pumpkin seeds
+ Do
take butter Do take butter. Even though a diary product, the amount
of milk protein casein is small.
Do Not
+ Do
not be afraid of the egg Do not be afraid of the egg as a source
of cholesterol. Choose organic egg from organic fed chicken. Cholesterol is a
needed for healthy body. Moderate consumption of 1-2 eggs per day does not significantly
increase blood cholesterol level if you are in good health. The best way to cook
eggs is to hard-boil them. Organic eggs contain a 1:1 omega 6 to omega 3 ratio.
Commercial eggs, on the other hand, contain up to 15:1 omega 6 to omega 3 ratio.
Commercial eggs are not unhealthy due to the cholesterol but due to the excessive
omega 6.
+ Do
not eat trans-fat Do not eat trans-fat. This is the worse kind
of fat you can take. Trans fat is found in margarine, doughnuts, cookies, pastries,
deep-fat fried foods such as French Fries, potato chips, and imitation cheeses.
Fluids
Do
+ Do
take pure filtered water only Do take pure filtered water only,
preferably from reverse osmosis process. Bottled water is the next best. Take
at least 10-12 glasses a day. Your body can process about one glass per hour.
The excess is flushed out of the kidneys. Thirst is a sign of dehydration in its
late stages. Keep a water bottle filled with water wherever you go during the
day.
+ Do
take fresh vegetable juice Do take fresh vegetable juice (not
fruit juice). A 2-step extraction and press process is the best.
+ Do
store water in glass Do store water in glass and not plastic container.
+ Do
drink more water when exercising. Do drink more water when exercising.
Drink up before you work out. Take in about 16 to 20 ounces of either water or
sports drink one to two hours prior to activity. This extra fluid will help offset
sweat losses; any excess will be excreted as urine before you work out. Take in
5 to 12 ounces of either water or sports drink every 15 to 20 minutes of exercise.
If you work out for more than an hour, choose sports drink.
Do Not
+ Do not drink tap water
Do not drink tap water,
as it is full of contaminants and chlorine. Stay away from any drinks containing
fluoride. If you have no choice, make sure that the tap water is kept at a rolling
boil for at least five minutes.
+ Do
not drink distilled water Do not drink distilled water, unless
for short term detoxification process because it can lead to de-mineralization
with long term use due to its acidic properties.
+ Do
not drink coffee Do not drink coffee. It is a stimulant and a diuretic.
Heavy coffee drinkers should taper off slowly. 1 cup a day is acceptable.
+ Do
not drink fruit juice Do not drink fruit juice, especially those
that has a high concentration of sugar. Each glass of juice can contain up to
eight teaspoons of sugar. Take fiber filled whole fruit in moderate quantity as
an alternative.
+ Do
not drink tea Do not drink tea, including red, black, and green
tea. Tea is a stimulant. Green tea contains antioxidants, but fruits and vegetables
are better source. It also contains fluoride. Herb tea is acceptable as it is
not really tea but herb that come in a tea bag.
+ Do
not take soda pop Do not take soda pop. It is full of sugar and
empty nutrition. Aluminum from can is toxic.
+ Do
not take milk Do not take milk - not needed for adults, especially
skim milk. Milk protein casein is the culprit, aside from the fact that milk is
highly allergenic.
+ Do
not over drink wine and alcohol Do not over drink wine and alcohol.
Drinking too much wine-or any alcoholic beverage-has a definite down side. Numerous
studies suggest that consuming more than two drinks a day over the long term can
raise blood pressure in some people and increase the risk for stroke and other
diseases.
What, When and how to eat:
+ Meals
Breakfast - full (eggs and vegetable juice is best); Lunch - moderate;
Dinner- small and early. Do take a walk immediately after meal to promote circulation.
+ Calorie
Eat to 70% full. Maintain a diet of 1500-1800 calories a day if you
are sedentary to achieve a target anti-aging weight at or slightly below your
ideal body weight. (men= 106 pounds for first 5 feet in height plus 6 pounds for
each addition inch above 5 feet; women= 100 pounds for the first 5 feet plus 5
pounds for each inch above 5 feet)
+ Dessert
Only at lunch. Avoid before-bed snacks, particularly grains and sugars.
This will raise blood sugar and inhibit sleep. A few hours later, reactive hypoglycemia
may ensure and you might wake up and not be able to fall back asleep. Late night
snacks high in sugar also promote the release of cortisol, an pro-aging hormone
you can do without.
+ Microwave
Do not use to heat food as it changes the molecular structure of the
nutrients. High frequency electromagnetic waves that alternate in positive and
negative directions are used, causing vibration of food molecules up to 2.5 billion
times per second. Heat created as a result can destroy the structure of vitamins
and enzymes
+ Chew
food thoroughly Chew food thoroughly (20 times each mouthful)
before swallowing to aid digestion
+ Do
not take too much water with your food Do not take too much water
with your food that can dilute the digestive enzymes.
+ Do
not take genetically engineered food Do not take genetically engineered
food. Available only since 1995, there is simply not enough information on the
long-term heath effect. It is hard to conceive that there are no structural changes
to the nutrients that have been genetically modified. The damage may be insidious,
similar to smoking and it might require many decades of ingestion to observe an
effect. The risks are not worthwhile to take.
+ Do
not take irradiated food Do not take irradiated food. From a nutritional
perspective, irradiation is like exposing food to the equivalent of up to 1 billion
chest x-rays depletes vitamins, often significantly. Especially vulnerable are
A, the B-complex, C, E, and beta-carotene. For instance, irradiation destroys
up to 80 percent of the vitamin A in eggs, and about half of the thiamin in wheat
flour. Essential fatty acids can be damaged, as can amino acids. And, beneficial
microorganisms are killed along with the harmful ones. Animals that ate irradiated
food: premature death, fatal internal bleeding, a rare form of cancer, stillbirths
and other reproductive problems, genetic damage, organ malfunctions and nutritional
deficiencies, to name a few. Scientists have little or no idea whether irradiated
food is safe for human consumption.
Diet Summary:
Take plenty of green leafy vegetables, moderate amount of lean meat from grass
fed cattle, farm raised poultry and cold-water fish as a source of protein is
acceptable. Avoid grains and underground vegetables such as potato and yam. Organic
egg, raw nuts, and seeds are rich sources of protein. Fat is good, especially
from cold water fish that is rich in omega 3 fatty acid. Stay away from trans-fat
such as French Fries and cookies. Take pure filtered water only. Cook with olive
oil (monounsaturated), coconut oil (already saturated), and butter. Eat a big
breakfast, moderate lunch, and early and light dinner. Avoid dessert at night.
Chew your food well. Eat to 70 percent full, and do not use microwave to cook
your food.
Exercise
Do:
+ Do
strength training exercise Do strength training exercise, especially
with the large muscle groups (chest, back, and thigh) at least 3 times a week,
15 minutes each time to increase growth hormone secretion. Strength training induces
the development of additional new muscle cells and more resilient tendons, ligaments,
and muscles. Added strength improves neuromuscular control, which in turn protects
you from injury. Strength training is especially important for the back, since
lower-back pain is often caused by weakness of the abdominal and/or back muscles.
+ Do
cardiovascular exercise everyday Do cardiovascular exercise everyday,
30 minutes total at 80% of maximum heart rate (maximum heart rate is equal to
220 less your age). Breaking up exercise into short bursts of activity throughout
the day strengthened the heart just as well as one long workout. You can break
down the 20 minutes into two sessions of 10 minutes each. Studies show that heart
disease risk was found to depend more on how many overall calories burned. Men
who burned 4,400 calories per week through exercise were nearly 40% less likely
to develop heart disease than were men who used up only 1,100 calories per week.
This effect held, regardless of whether the men walked, climbed stairs, or played
sports. Don't forget that golf is not an aerobic sport.
+ Do
flexibility training Do flexibility training 5 minutes before
and after each exercise session to warm up and cool down the muscle, ensure smooth
join movement, accident prevention, and maintain good balance.
+ Do
drink extra water when you exercise Do drink extra water when
you exercise to avoid dehydration. Sports drinks are acceptable. Check the label
- your sports drink should provide about 50 to 80 calories per eight-ounce serving
(this translates to 14 g. to 20 g. of carbohydrates per serving.) After you finish
an activity, drink two cups of fluid for every pound lost during your workout.
+ Do
exercise in mid afternoon Do exercise in mid afternoon is the
safest if you have no special preference. Often your body will tell you when the
most comfortable time is. Follow your body rhythm for best results.
+ Do
be consistent in your exercise program Do be consistent in your
exercise program. The is the secret of success
+ Do
create variety in your exercise program Do create variety in your
exercise program. Cross training is any fitness program that systematically incorporates
a variety of activities to promote balanced fitness. Instead of just running or
just swimming or just bicycling or just aerobics classes or just anything, cross
training is participating in several different exercise activities.
Do Not
+ Do
not over-exercise Do not over-exercise. The human body is not
made to sustain the structural damage from a marathon. Its good for the ego but
not for the body. Sustained over exercising can cause damage at a rate faster
than the body's ability to heal. This will wear you out prematurely. Not only
is there no upside to excessive training but by generating more free radicals
than the body is prepared to scavenge, over training actually weakens the immune
system and increases susceptibility to degenerative disease. Consistency is far
more important than intensity.
+ Do
not make exercise too complicate. Do not make exercise too complicate.
A simple exercise program that can be done anywhere is the key
+ Do
not compare yourself with others Do not compare yourself with
others. Each person is unique and is at a different level of fitness.
+ Do
not try to get fit by being active Do not try to get fit by being
active. You can become more active only by becoming fit.
Nutritional Supplementation
Do
+ Do
take a well rounded multiple vitamin and mineral formula Do take
a well rounded multiple vitamin and mineral formula in optimal anti-aging dose
to prevent oxidative stress. Different vitamins and minerals works on different
parts of the cell. There is no one magic bullet. The body needs about 40 different
micronutrients for optimum function.
+ Do
take additional function specific nutritional supplements Do take
additional function specific nutritional supplements for aging conditions such
as memory lost, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar, heart function, immunity,
and cancer prevention.
+ Do
take your supplements with meals to enhance absorption Do take your
supplements with meals to enhance absorption
+ Do
take your supplements everyday. Do take your supplements everyday.
+ Do
take digestive enzymes and probiotics Do take digestive enzymes
and probiotics to enhance gastrointestinal health. Active cultures of Lactobacillus
and Acidophilus promote normal flora in the gut.
+ Do
take magnesium Do take magnesium. 80 percent of the adult population
is deficient in magnesium even by RDA standards. Magnesium, together with vitamin
C and E, is a critical anti-aging mineral because it is required in optimal mitochondrial
function. 500-1000 mg in divided dose is preferred. If you have diarrhea, back
off and stay at the dose where no runs occur.
Do Not
+ Do
not use supplement as a substitute of good whole foods. Do not
use supplement as a substitute of good whole foods.
+ Do
not take Iron Do not take Iron as part of an anti-aging supplement
program unless you are anemic.
+ Do
not take supplements if they smell bad. Do not take supplements
if they smell bad.
Stress Reduction
Do
+ Do
develop a personal stress reduction program Do develop a personal
stress reduction program uniquely suited to your lifestyle and likes. Do what
is relaxing to you is the key. Do not compare with others. What works for one
person may not work for another.
+ Do
breath properly Do breath properly to reduce stresses and tensions
of everyday life. Use your diaphragm and not your chest wall.
+ Do
develop a close circle of trusted friends Do develop a close circle
of trusted friends to share your stress.
+ Do
take things in stride. Do take things in stride.
+ Do
follow an exercise program Do follow an exercise program. It is
by far the best stress reducer.
Do Not
+ Do
not avoid all stress Do not avoid all stress. Some stress is necessary
for a happy life.
+ Do
not overeat or oversleep Do not overeat or oversleep as an escape
when faced with stress.
+ Do
not overreaction and act emotionally Do not overreaction and act
emotionally. Take a break when faced with stress you cannot handle.
Hormonal Enhancement
Do
+ Do
strength training of large muscle groups Do strength training of large
muscle groups such as chest, back, and thigh three times a week, 15 minutes each
time to enhance endogenous growth hormone release.
+ Do
aerobics exercises 30 minutes each day Do aerobics exercises 30
minutes each day to enhance endogenous growth hormone release.
+ Do
restrict calorie intake Do restrict calorie intake. This has shown
to promote growth hormone release endogenously
+ Do
consider progesterone replacement and natural hormonal replacement therapy
Do consider progesterone replacement and natural hormonal replacement
therapy as alternative to tradition treatments of menopausal symptoms
+ Do
consider nutritional supplementation Do consider nutritional supplementation
such as vitamin E and evening primrose oil to modulate hormonal cycle for women.
For men, prevention of Benign Prostate Hypertrophy and delay onset of andropuase
through vitamins, herbs, and minerals are important.
+ Do
take amino acids Do take amino acids like glutamine that acts
as a secretagogue to enhance endogenous release of growth hormone
Misc. Strategies
+ Do
Use shower filter Do Use shower filter to avoid chlorine exposure
from tap water during shower
+ Do
keep the kitchen counter clean Do keep the kitchen counter clean.
Cutting boards, dishes, utensils, and counter tops should be washed with hot,
soapy water and sanitized after coming in contact with fresh produce or raw meat,
poultry, or seafood. Sanitize after use with a solution of one teaspoon of chlorine
bleach in one quart of water. Leave your dishwashing sponge very dry and without
any residue of organic material. Clean the sponge after you wash the dishes, and
keep it away from the cutting board.
+ Do
Watch out for toxic molds Do Watch out for toxic molds. Mold toxins
(mycotoxins) may suppress the immune system and cause cancer. Refrigerators are
a haven for mold, which loves to grow on bruised fruits and vegetables. If a hard
food that is uncooked becomes moldy, cut and discard the moldy part and at least
one inch of the food in each direction from the site of mold. ("Hard" foods include
apples, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, and hard cheese in chunks, garlic cloves,
onions, pears, potatoes, squash and turnips.) If a soft food, juice or cooked
leftover becomes moldy, throw it all away; do not attempt to salvage any of it.
+ Do
listen to your body Do listen to your body. It will tell you far
in advance what is wrong. Every body is unique and different. Accept the fact
that it is far more important listen to your body in addition to listening to
your doctor.
+ Do
expose your body to at least 30 minutes of direct or indirect sunlight
Do expose your body to at least 30 minutes of direct or indirect sunlight per
day. Small amounts of daily sunshine on our skin and in our eyes are critical
to good health. Wear sunscreen as needed.
+ Do
avoid electromagnetic field Do avoid electromagnetic field such
as cellular phone, electric blanket, and a home near electrical plants. Avoid
wearing metals, including jewelry.
+ Do
take drugs only as a last resort Do take drugs only as a last
resort. All drugs have side effects. Avoid Antacids and Acid Lowering Drugs. The
body's first line of defense against intestinal infection is the acid produced
by a healthy stomach. Stomach acid kills most of the bacteria and parasites that
are swallowed along with meals. Strong suppression of stomach acid increases the
risk of intestinal infection. It is also important to avoid unnecessary antibiotics.
The second line of defense against intestinal infection is the normal intestinal
bacteria, especially Lactobacilli residing in the small intestine. Antibiotics
decimate Lactobacilli. In so doing, they increase the risk of subsequent intestinal
infection.
+ Do
see your doctor for routine medical checkup Do see your doctor
for routine medical checkup and to rid yourself of any toxic metals like mercury,
lead, and arsenic in your body.
+ Do
have daily bowl movement that should be effortless and odorless
Do have daily bowl movement that should be effortless and odorless. Stool should
not sink to the bottom of the bowl
+ Do
inspect your urine Do inspect your urine. It should be clear to
very light yellow color. Dark color could mean infection and dehydration, unless
you are on B vitamins.
+ Do
sleep in total darkness Do sleep in total darkness without night-light
to maximize melatonin production. When light hits the eyes, it disrupts the circadian
rhythm of the pineal gland and production of melatonin and seratonin.
+ Do
replace all silver amalgam dental fillings Do replace all silver
amalgam dental fillings (actually contain 50% mercury). Avoid ceramic and porcelain
crowns as they have metal in them. Use composites. Avoid toothpaste with fluoride.
+ Do
follow a detoxification program, Do follow a detoxification program,
including regular fasting, skin brushing, colon cleansing, sauna, and steam bath.
+ Do
pray in time of sickness Do pray in time of sickness. Numerous
studies have confirmed the power of prayer in healing with statistical significance.
Clinical studies have reported that heart patients who receive prayer have 50
percent to 100 percent fewer side effects.
+ Do
not initiate too fast a lifestyle change Do not initiate too fast
a lifestyle change that can act as a stressor to your body, especially if lifelong
habits have been well established. Give yourself 1 to 2 years to transition to
an anti-aging lifestyle slowly, one step at a time.
+ Do
not stop smoking immediately Do not stop smoking immediately if
you have been smoking for a long time, but do stop sugar intake. Studies have
shown that 65 mg of vitamin C is needed to counteract the free radical and oxidative
stress damage of one cigarette.
+ Do
not use anti-perspirants Do not use anti-perspirants. Generally
full of aluminum, which is a toxic substance and has been linked to Alzheimer's
disease.
+ Do
not use aluminum and stainless steel cookwares Do not use aluminum
and stainless steel cookwares. Enamel coated metal or glassware is best as they
are inert and will not add toxic metal to the food. Teflon coated cookware is
acceptable provided it is not chipped.
