Slow Down Aging From the Inside Out

Posted: June 30, 2018

The health question we at Bonakdar Aesthetics are asked the most often is definitely “how can I slow down and reverse aging?” While aging is a natural process, there are things we can do to slow down the process and keep both a youthful appearance and youthful, functioning body. We are learning that pre-mature aging is caused by things like oxidative stress and inflammation, the same players that can also increase your risk for chronic diseases. Luckily, with the proper anti-aging regimen, these are things that can be prevented easily and naturally. The following tips will help you fight the aging process and promote youthful beauty from the inside out.

Check your levels: Lab work is an essential component in managing and slowing down the aging process. It’s important to establish your baseline of health and rule out potential risk factors and disease states such as low vitamin D, high cholesterol, or diabetes. From a functional perspective, testing your hormone levels and other key inflammatory factors provides a great snapshot of your current health and give us an idea of how your body is moving through the aging process. Lab results are a great place to start in terms of coming up with the best anti-aging and preventative treatment protocol for you.

Anti-oxidants and nutrients: We spend so much time and money on skin care treatments because they are so important! It’s also equally important to give your body the vitamins and nutrients it needs from within. Vitamins and anti-oxidants found in fruits and vegetables like blueberries, dark leafy greens, and oranges can help fight oxidative stress and even lower your blood sugar and cholesterol. Getting the right nutritional plan can help make sure you are receiving the proper amounts of these anti-aging nutrients. Nutrient boosts, which we offer at Bonakdar Aesthetics, can also give you a high dose of anti-aging nutrition that’s easily absorbed by your body. Our different boosts contain things like B vitamins for increasing immunity and metabolism, L-Carnitine for powerful cellular support, and glutathione and MIC for powerful detox and anti-aging support.

Anti-inflammatory Protocol: Inflammation is one of the main culprits of premature aging and is also linked to things like low energy, migraines, and chronic disease. So many things in our day to day lives can put our bodies in an inflammatory state. We go through each aspect of our patients’ lives, whether it be their sleep, their stress, or their diets, and give recommendations to help reduce inflammation as much as possible.

Gut health: Did you know the health of your gut is linked to your skin, mood, overall immunity, aging, and hormonal health? We always address the gut in every patient visit, especially with patients looking to look beautiful from the inside out and those who want to fight the signs and symptoms of aging. Supporting a healthy gut environment is key to achieving youthful appearance, metabolism, energy, and function.

If your primary goal is to slow down the aging process from the inside out, schedule an anti-aging consultation to find out how you can fight causes of premature aging and receive your anti-aging treatment plan. This is a great way to improve results of the aesthetic treatments you receive at Bonakdar Aesthetics. This visit includes recommendations for vitamins and supplements, nutritional advice, lifestyle recommendations, and more.
