Anti-Aging Naturally

I remember in my youthful 20s, always joking to my friends that I would retire from the world of sex at the age of 40. In your 20s, when you are very young, 40 seems old and such a long way off. And then the 40s arrive and the whole world looks very, very different.

It seems, according to an article on the BBC News Health pages that “age is no barrier to sexual activity”. Sex is no longer the domain of youth but rather, those happiest and healthiest are those that are sexually active far into their 70s and 80s. The internal sex drive in both men and women remains strong for a lot longer than most people suspect. A large percentage of people in their fifties to mid-sixties reported having sex in the last year and that sex occurs two to three times per month. Both males and females continue to masturbate whether or not they have a sexual partner.

Sexual problems for older adults include erectile dysfunction for males and problems of lack of sexual desire and the problem of lubrication for women. However, the problem of erectile dysfunction for men is easily solved with Viagra and for low libido and problems of lubrication in women, there is bioidentical hormone supplementation and many easily obtainable over the counter lubricants. Read more about bioidentical hormone supplementation in our article here.

Perimenopause is the medical term for the time before menopause which can begin 10 to 15 years before actual menopause. The average age for menopause to begin is about 51 years of age, but it can occur sooner or later than that. Perimenopause can occur in women as young as 35 years old. At this time, your body is changing and producing less hormones. You can experience some or all of the following physical and emotional symptoms:

Medistik(TM) - Rapid Pain Relief:

MediStik (TM), a is a rapid pain relief product I found at the Anti-Aging Show in Toronto in March of 2007. The company President had given me a stick of it to sample and review for PureAgeless.com. I have to say I was a little doubtful of the claims made (instant pain relief) but I was eager to try it on my knees which have constantly bothered me since a skiing accident four years ago. My doctor had prescribed me anti-inflammatory prescription medications and exercises to build up the strength in my legs, but after taking it and following the exercise program, nothing had worked. The pain is so bad in my knees that I sincerely doubted the claims of instant pain relief from this new product.

Burt’s Bees Hand Salve

Burt’s Bees Hand Salve is another organic product, but I am not all that exuberant about this one.

Its ingredients list includes sweet almond oil, olive oil, beeswax, tocopheryl acetate and tocopherol (Vitamin E), comfrey root extract, rosemary oil and leaf extract, lavender oil and extract and eucalyptus oil. All great ingrediants but the product doesn’t work for me. I find it too oily and I put it on and it doesn’t soak into the skin fast enough. Neither do I like the scent of it but the eucalyptus which gives it its smell is not a favorite of mine.

However, its very oily properties might be good for extremely dry hands. Maybe I could use surgical gloves after I slather it over my hands and get a deep moisturizing treatment.

Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme by Burt’s Bees:

Another great product by Burt’s Bees! I just love this stuff! Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme works! And it smells scrumptious! A lovely lemony smell. Smooth it on the ends of your fingers, your nails, cuticles and you will notice how it softens them. My nails seem to have grown stronger with this handcare product. The ingredients include sweet almond oil, beeswax, lemon oil, tocopheral acetate, tocopherol (vitamin E), cocoa butter, candelilla wax, rosemary extract, beta-carotene.

A Horrific Prescription for Menopause

A friend of mine believing she had finally reached menopause because of frequently occurring hot flashes that were driving her nuts, made an appointment at her doctor. The doctor set her up to have a hormone panel done. With the positive results of the tests, her suspicions were confirmed, she had indeed reached menopause.

Before we go any further in this article, let me tell you a little about my friend. She is a very joyful woman, is very happily married, has two wonderful kids and a great attitude towards life. Enough about my friend.

Let me tell you her horror story.
