7 Tips To Celebrate Healthy Aging Month

Are you looking to reinvent yourself and start on a new path? If so, there's no need to wait until the New Year. September is Healthy Aging Month, an annual observance centered around the notion that it's never too late to take control of your life and health. Here are some tips to help you do so.

1. Supplements

Vitamin and mineral deficiencies can exist even with a diet of healthy whole foods. Adding the right supplements can optimize the way your body functions, improve well-being, and prevent illness. But it's essential to use pharmaceutical grade supplements (rather than over-the-counter options) to ensure purity and quality.

2. Hormone optimization

Our hormones alter with age and lead to decreased libido, declining muscle mass and lack of motivation. Closely monitor your blood levels and physical symptoms to obtain optimal function.

3. Fitness and exercise

When it comes to your exercise routine, it's important to make sure you're maximizing your results. Too many hours doing the wrong exercise, like chronic cardio, can slow progress and even lead to injuries. Having an individualized program will enable you to exercise smarter, not longer.

4. Eating right

Everyone's dietary needs are different because of genetics, health status, disease prevention needs, and long term goals. But whole food nutrition can have a positive impact on anyone's health.

5. Sleep/stress management

Two vital parts of your overall health are good sleep habits and stress management. They'll lead to adequate weight loss, faster muscle recovery, and increased longevity. Moreover, a lack of sleep can sidetrack the benefits of proper diet and exercise.

6. Get creative

Perhaps you've always wanted to learn a certain musical instrument or take painting lessons. Sign up now for fall art and/or music classes. This stimulates your brain. Use it or lose it!

7. Be social

If you feel like you're short on friends and family aligned with your lifestyle changes, do something that gets you out among like minded people, whether it's taking a class, volunteering, or just going to lunch or dinner with someone.
