You don't have to be older to be wiser about aging. Six top experts explain the latest news on looking young, feeling stronger, and thinking sharper at every age.
BODY AND SOUL
Like a less sinister Dorian Gray, Michael Roizen, an internist, anesthesiologist, and chief wellness officer of the Cleveland Clinic, has all the secrets to fighting off aging. Fourteen years ago, he developed the concept of RealAge, a formula that determines how young or old your body really is, based on your health and behavior. His team reviewed more than 35,000 studies on the effects of lifestyle and more on mortality or disability rates, and now he's coauthored You, Staying Young: The Owner's Manual for Extending Your Warranty (Free Press) with cardiothorassic surgeon Mehmet Oz.
What are the most important things a woman in her 20s or 30s can do now? First, establish healthy patterns of eating and physical activity that will last a lifetime. Also, try to choose both a job and a partner that you are passionate about. Those who have passion in their lives age less.
Your book says memory loss starts at around age 16 and can be common by 40. What can we do to stave it off? Regular exercise helps prevent the arterial aging that contributes to memory loss. It demands concentration and coordination, two activities that require you to fire up those
brain neurons and keep them active. Certain nutrients are also known to be "brain foods," the main one being omega-3 fatty acids, found in fatty fish such as salmon and mahi-mahi. These healthy fats help keep your arteries clear and improve the function of your message-sending brain neuro-transmitters. Aim for 13 ounces of fish a week or an ounce of walnuts every day, or, if you prefer supplements, take two grams of fish oil, or DHA, a day.
