Episode 18: AGING Part 4 - The Sirtuin Theory
We KNOW that Knowledge is the "foreplay" to your Wellness, so we want to make sure you are equipped to be your OWN Super Hero in your wellness journey! Equipping you with the KNOWLEDGE you need to have the HEALTH you so desire!
Every episode we ask FOUR questions about a specific health topic. Here they are:
1. SIRT WHAT? WHAT ARE SIRTUINS? Sirtuins are Proteins in our cells required for life that are responsible for the communication between the different working mechanism inside of our cells... from the nucleus to the mitochondria. There are SEVEN (7) different types of Sirtuins. The “Skinny Gene”.
2. WHAT DO SIRTUINS HAVE TO DO WITH AGING? Proper Sirtuin levels comes with a cascade of health benefits. Including supporting a healthy vascular system, maintaining cholesterol levels already in the healthy range, supporting the body’s healthy inflammatory response, supporting joint health, heightening mental focus, improving mood, motivation, energy, and much more. Sirtuin activity declines as we age (60%).
3. WHAT DOES SIRTUIN DECLINE FEEL LIKE? Fatigue, Brain fog, Memory problems, Mood swings, Sluggishness, Lack of motivation, Delayed healing, Vision decline, Muscle weakness, Confusion, Hearing problems, Learning disabilities, Joint tension, Lack of mobility, Gut issues, Headaches, Difficulty breathing, and many other symptoms of poor health!
4. WHAT CAN WE DO TO PREVENT THE DECLINE OF OR RESTORE OUR SIRTUINS? Increase NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide)! Caloric restriction: 800 calories/day with Doctor supervision over an extended period of time can increase sirtuin activity by 94%. Runs risk of nutrient deficiency and attack on fatty organs. Long-term Exercise positively affects sirtuin activity and expression, resulting in better oxidative metabolism, increased biogenesis and mitochondrial function, as well as maintenance of the antioxidant system. Food: green tea, turmeric, onions, kale, parsley, miso soup, tofu/soy products, olives and extra-virgin olive oil, blackcurrants, capers, cocoa, dates and walnuts/ Pre-cursor Supplements: NMN, NR -Activate the NAD Pathway through Nutrigenomics, using nutrition and natural compounds to positively affect your DNA -Supports healthy longevity. Autophagy (removal of cellular waste). Improves mental focus and concentration. Supports positive mood and motivation. Boosts mental and physical energy. Supports body's healthy inflammatory response. Maintain cholesterol levels already in the healthy range. Supports healthy vascular system Equipping you with the KNOWLEDGE you need to have the HEALTH you so desire! #WellnessFourPlay #ProactiveWellness #AgingPartFour #DoYouFeelOld #Sirtuins #NAD #Energy #CellPower #TheBiohackingTeam #EmpoweredWellness #wellness DondeeAndMarci.com
