Avatar f tn What vitamins can I take to prevent aging? Exclusively the face and neck areas. If there is not a vitamin, can herbs help and what kind? Any Natural Preventions?
Avatar f tn Go to ulta and talk to their estheticians for a professional recommendation. While pregnant do stay away from retinols which are anti aging. They can cause birth defects. But look for something that has hyaluronic acid in it which is a natural chemical our body makes which helps retains moisture by 1000x its weight. So it is super hydrating which will help reduce and prevent wrinkles.
Avatar m tn I am interested in doctors who practice holistic medicine, evidence-based medicine (EBM), and anti-aging medicine (life extension or LE). I also want to avoid quacks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holistic_health http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evidence-based_medicine http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_extension How do I find such a doctor? Are there organizations / websites that rate doctors in these areas? Any recommendations for such a website? Or, can you recommend a doctor in the DC area?
Avatar f tn Before using any serum, I'd check with your doctor to see what they recommend. Has your doctor given you any advice on what you can do to treat the alopecia and fast aging?
Avatar n tn I suggest the use of products that are hypoallergenic and also with organic ingredients such as vitamin C and E. Anti aging products may also be beneficial especially for women with fine lines and wrinkles. A healthy diet,decrease intake of fatty food, cessation of smoking,adequate sleep and daily exercise will ensure not just great skin but also a healthy body in general.
Avatar n tn Yes, it's not the retina's fault, it's the vitreous pulling on it that tears the retina away. The vitreous humour, by the way, contains the second highest concentration of vitamin C in the body. Vitamin C is an anti-oxidant as well as being necessary for the formation of collagen. I don't know whether upping your vitamin C intake would help. Judily.

Avatar n tn They often begin with an upper respiratory infection, head trauma or with aging. The phenomenon is more likely to occur in women and is then often associated with a decreased sense of smell. The experience of these may last for varying periods of time from days to years, but in many cases resolve spontaneously. Some people are reported to be able to halt the onset of these odors by tickling the inside of their noses with a soft item.
1028452 tn?1537448484 The most consistent, enthusiastic exercisers are those who do activities they like, whether it’s dancing, hiking or aqua aerobics. Exercise has a strong, anti-aging effect on cells’ DNA. It influences telomeres, “caps” at the ends of DNA strands, kind of like the tips on shoelaces, which protect chromosomes from destruction. Telomeres shorten progressively over time, leading to cellular damage due to the inability of the cell to duplicate itself correctly.
Avatar m tn Some doctors will tell us that such problems with the aging eye come in groups-eg, vitreous detachments, floaters, macular problems, retinal tears, and retinal detachments. I've been told these are 'typical' of the aging eye. We need research, but no companies have picked up on this huge problem to our daily vision. The companies that could pursue this may well be those who offer very expensive eye drops for glaucoma, for dry eye (eg, Restasis), and for macular edema.

384150 tn?1399904816 Lisa, what exactly is DHEA supposed to do? I know it's sold "under the counter" at many health stores in my city and I've heard it being used as an "anti-aging" supplement because our natural levels deplete as we get older. Where did you buy it and how and why did you decide to start taking it? Thanks in advance, Miranda.
Avatar n tn What does that prove? A ton of things in this world are anti-bacterial to some extent or other. Few are anti-viral. You would do better to just use saltwater at the appropriate concentration for any purpose cleaning the nose gives you. It has no additives. As for the mask thing, nobody ever said masks wouldn't help. They said masks were in short supply and were more needed by physicians than by the rest of us.

Avatar f tn Does anyone know if a handheld LED/Ultrasound device used for skin anti-aging purposes would affect the thyroid if used over the neck, if there is a diagnosis of hypo OR hyperthyroidism? Thank you.
Avatar f tn Unfortunately, the money goes where the meds go, so most of the research is done on kids. However, with more and more kids entering the adult mainstream that may begin to change. So, no I haven't yet seen any research on aging. Doesn't mean its not out there. Typically, the experience seems to be like yours - over the years you learn how to compensate. However, your sleep disorder is definitely a cause for the ADD symptoms and perhaps the main cause.
Avatar f tn I haven't heard of any of this anti-aging stuff with these two supplements. I use Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) to help with peripheral neuropathy. I noticed that it really does cut down on the amount of neuropathy I experience. When I did some online research for Acetyl L Carnitine and neuropathy, since it's also used. The difference is that it is recommended that people check with their doctors before using the Acetyl L Carnitine.
Avatar f tn I have been taking Prozac for about 6 years an I have noticed that my eye color looks much darker ,I tried to research this online but nothing came up apart from how Prozac can increase melanin melanocytes in the skin ,could this all so mean it effects the pigments in the iris causing a change in color?
Avatar f tn it does slow aging but the main aging factor is loss of subcutaneous fat in the face...
Avatar f tn According to an article in the international journal Research on Aging in 2009, the elderly population in China will have tripled by 2050. Norway and China are in many ways extreme opposites when it comes to family policy. Under China's policy responsibility for the family rests entirely with families themselves. There are almost no institutions for the elderly, and few elderly people receive pensions.
Avatar m tn If a person is prescribed an anti-anxiety med, antidepressant, antipsychotics, etc...we must have a written thorough diagnosis from the Rx-ing physician indicating why that med is needed, along with frequent labs and assessments to both eval the effectiveness of the med, along with monitoring for any probelms.
