Green tea possesses many proven health benefits. Studies have shown that tea may support your healthspan and lifespan. Your healthspan is how long you stay healthy and the goal is to be healthy right up until your last minute. Lifespan refers to how long you live.†
A number of studies have shown that green tea specifically improves the benefits of exercise. Together, these two factors have an additive effect that helps to build strong bones and improve strength. Taking a green tea capsule such as our Green Tea HxⓇ prior to exercise allows you to build more muscle and strengthen your bones while working out.†
There are quite a few studies showing that green tea helps prevent fragility and support balance. A study completed in Singapore looked at 2400 adults aged 55 years or older.

The gait can reveal a lot about an elderly person’s overall health.†

Blue zones are regions of the world where people have a trend of living much longer. There’s a blue zone above Venice, Italy, one in Ikaria, Greece, one in Loma Linda, California, one in Ecuador and one off the coast of Japan in Okinawa. People in these regions typically live far longer than people from other surrounding areas. It’s not uncommon in these regions for people to live to 90 or 105 years old.†
A study done on the blue zone in Ikaria, Greece looked at 673 people aged 65 to 100. Researchers then followed up with them several years later. They found that some factors that contributed to the longevity of these subjects included coffee packed with polyphenols, fruit intake, high-quality olive oil and drinking tea. Antioxidants may also contribute to long, healthy lives.†

Slowing down the aging process doesn’t mean stopping it completely. But what if we told you there were ways you could slow down the aging process in order to age optimally? Here’s what you need to know.
September is National Healthy Aging Month! Don’t wait to start a New Year’s resolution; it’s time to get started on adding some healthy practices to your lifestyle!
Carolyn Worthington, editor-in-chief of Healthy Aging® Magazine and executive director of Health Aging® explains the importance of focusing on health and wellness this month – “We saw a need to draw attention to the myths of aging, to shout out ‘Hey, it’s not too late to take control of your health, it’s never too late to get started on something new.’ Why not think about the positive aspects of aging instead of the stereotypes and the negative aspects?”
While you can’t change your appearance to look like you did when you were 20 (no matter what miracle cream you are using!), you can give your body the nutrients it needs to keep your cells and overall wellness in the best shape possible. Practice health and wellness from the inside out, naturally, with anti-aging supplements.
As we age, we develop a higher risk of several harmful conditions that can actually accelerate the aging process. Superior anti-aging supplements can work to support organ efficiency and metabolism, and a healthy brain.
