Anti Aging

Every one of us, you and I fear aging! However, aging is an inevitable process. What we can only do is to slow down the aging process. This is called anti aging. Anti aging is also known as life extension. It refers to attempts to slow down or reverse the aging process so that people can live longer, healthier and happier. We, human beings have been looking out for the most effective anti aging strategies since many centuries ago. The most elaborated example being the seeking of elixir of life from Qin Shi Huang more than 2,200 years ago.

What is the much fabled elixir of life? Does it really exist? According to literature, elixir of life is a potion or drink that grants the drinker eternal youth. It actually appears in a lot of myths across the world. I do not believe in the existence of such elixir of life, at least for now. Qin Shi Huang was king of the Chinese State of Qin from 246 B.C. to 221 B.C. He became the first emperor to unify China. Later in his life, Qin Shi Huang started to fear of death and desperately sought the fabled elixir of life. The emperor had also built a city sized mausoleum guarded by a life sized Terracotta Army.

The tale of eternal youth is also frequently told in western myth and legend. The most common being the Fountain of Youth, a legendary spring that reputedly restores the youth of anyone who drinks its waters. There is this story in which Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon was searching for the Fountain of Youth in present day Florida. Today, St. Augustine in Florida has even become home to the Fountain of Youth National Architecture Park. Many tourists visit the park each year to drink water from the fountain. But does the water bring back their youth?

Eternal youth is not possible. As I said, aging is inevitable. But looking and feeling old is optional! Step up your quest today to slow down or stop your aging process by using fitness program, facial exercise and anti aging recipes!
