How well do you see the blue light? Have you had cataracts eye surgery omitting the blue light from the lens? It may affect your memory, sleep, mood and aging. New interesting research points to the relationship between our vision and brain function. Certain areas of the brain are stimulated by light and that leads to more or less production of Melatonin, which has many health-promoting functions. Studies have shown that people with low melatonin secretion, a marker for a dysfunctional S.C.N., have a higher incidence of many illnesses, including cancer, diabetes and heart disease.
Can we slow aging by eliminating old dead cells? Scientists at the Mayo Clinic, in the US, devised a way to kill all senescent cells in genetically engineered mice. The animals would age far more quickly than normal, and when they were given a drug, the senescent cells would die. The researchers looked at three symptoms of old age: formation of cataracts in the eye; the wasting away of muscle tissue; and the loss of fat deposits under the skin, which keep it smooth. Researchers said the onset of these symptoms was “dramatically delayed” when the animals were treated with the drug. When it was given after the mice had been allowed to age, there was an improvement in muscle function. How might we duplicate this naturally? By boosting our immune system. For example with L. Carnitine and astragalus. They spark cell rejuvenation.
Aren’t they cute ! The scientific world is buzzing about an experiment done at Harvard to reverse aging symptoms in mice. ”What we saw in these animals was not a slowing down or stabilization of the aging process. We saw a dramatic reversal – and that was unexpected,” said Ronald DePinho, who led the study, which was published in the journal Nature. (This article links to my previous article on the herb astragalus. It naturally lengthens telomeres, which scientists are using to reverse aging.)
Shilajit, a major Ayurvedic rejuvenation tonic, is refined from an exudate pressed out from layers of rock in the Himalayan mountains. Shilajit is composed of humus and organic plant material that has been compressed by layers of rock. The active principle of shilajit is fulvic acid. Shilajit is a balanced general tonic comprising useful mineral and organic constituents that is taken to help digestion and with the assimilation of foods. Shilajit is often used in combination with other specific plant decoctions to, for example, support respiratory and genitourinary functions. Shilajit is also known as Mineral Pitch or Black Asphaltum, is a rich source of natural occurring minerals. Shilajit has been widely used in India, Tibet, China, Pakistan, middle eastern countries and Russia for common ailments to tonify the immune system.
