Biological Aging

Do you know people who look years younger than the number of candles on their birthday cake? Or someone who’s the opposite, appears older than they really are? 

This isn’t just a phenomenon that happens with physical appearances. Different people can appear to be different ages on a cellular level too - it’s known as biological age. Biological age is a measure of how young your cells appear, based on how healthy they are or how they behave. Just as outward appearance doesn’t always represent numerical age, cellular health doesn’t always line up with it either.

Biological aging is the gradual deterioration of functional
characteristics in living organisms 
(Wikipedia)

When you take control of your metabolic health, which we started talking about last week in my Metabolic Awakening post, you also slow the signs of biological aging and extend your healthspan. This isn’t just my opinion either. Some of the latest research from Harvard and other top-tier organizations shows metabolic health and biological age are inseparable. This connection means the stronger and healthier your metabolic function, the younger you’ll feel from the inside out. 

It’s a fact of life: as you age, so does your metabolic function. And because your metabolism influences your energy, weight, body composition, sleep, and even cognitive performance, a decline in metabolic health can dramatically impact your quality of life.

Put simply, taking control of your metabolic health now is how you control the rate you age inside and out.

Today is the best day to influence the rest of your life.
 
Getting older shouldn’t rob you of your quality of life - and it doesn’t have to. You deserve a life full of health and vitality at every age. While ‘lifespans’ might be increasing around the globe, how many of those extra years are spent truly feeling healthy and with fullest vitality and wellness? Or are we spending those extra years unable to do the things we love because of poor health?
 
There is a big difference between our ‘lifespan’ and our potential for ‘healthspan’. Unlike lifespan, which is strictly the years in your life, healthspan refers to how long your wellness and health last. On average, the last 8 years of life are typically spent with inhibited ability to enjoy life fully due to health limitations. It’s time to close the gap between lifespan and healthspan, put more life in your years, and feel better from the inside out.

Introducing the dōTERRA® MetaPWR™ Advantange

The MetaPWR™ Advantage contains doTERRA’s proprietary Healthspan Complex, formulated with 12 synergistic active ingredients that can slow biological aging and extend our healthspan.* It addresses the relationship between metabolism and aging with NAD+, NADH, and collagen.*

What are NMN, NAD+ and NADH?  

Nicotinamide mono nucleotide, or NMN, is a vital precursor in the biosynthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, or NAD+, which is a coenzyme found in every cell of the body.

NAD+ is responsible for two types of reactions in the body:
1. Metabolic function, which converts food and nutrients into cellular energy 
2. Cellular integrity, which protects your cellular energy factories

Because NAD+ levels steadily fall as you age, there are important implications to metabolic function and the negative effects on DNA that snowball as NAD+ levels decline. Remember that aging happens from the inside, outward. It’s all rooted at the cellular level. By middle age, NAD+ levels in the body are half what they are during our youth. NAD+ ensures proper cell function so we can age in a healthy way. NAD+ is a naturally produced molecule crucial for the function of all 37.2 trillion cells in your body. It gives power to cellular repair and helps generate the vast majority of your cellular energy. Supplementing with natural, quality sources of NMN may increase NAD+ levels in the body.

Look and feel good from the inside out.
 
Did you know that collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body with 28 different types? Collagen is a key component of connective tissues that make up tendons, ligaments, skin, muscles, and more. Collagen gives your skin its elasticity and firmness, and it also supports lean muscle and connective tissues. Connective tissues give your body structure and strength. Like the ligaments in your knee, allowing your knee to flex, bend, and absorb shock.

While collagen is something humans and animals produce naturally, the natural production of it drops with age, starting from age 25! As you age (or simply because of an active lifestyle), repeated stresses are put on your joints, muscles, tendons, and other connective tissues. Even the ever-present force of gravity is constantly taking its toll on your collagen-containing tissues.

The MetaPWR™ Advantage combines the power of marine collagen, NMN, and 10 other synergistic ingredients to target cellular integrity and health-span. It’s a powerhouse!



This product can replace vital collagen your tissues need and support natural production of NAD+ in your body, helping you slow the signs of aging from the inside and out. It gives your cells what they need to support cellular integrity. The result is slower biological aging; firmer, more elastic skin; improved cognitive function; plus more lean muscle and connective tissue, and more!

MetaPWR Advantage is a game-changing powdered supplement you can mix with cool or room temperature water in a shaker bottle. Use it daily to slow signs of biological aging and extend your health-span, regardless of your current age.* Nothing out there even compares to it.
 
The doTERRA collagen difference.

12x more absorbable than other collagen products. That means if you were to give someone a regular collagen bottle and compare the milligram levels, you’ll absorb approximately 12 times more into your cells with MetaPWR™ Advantage than the competing product.  

Contains 9 unique collagen types. Most other products feature one or two collagen types that are mostly related to skin (beauty, elasticity and wrinkles). MetaPWR™ Advantage features all those and more, to also support joint mobility and tissue strength.


Sustainably harvested collagen. doTERRA sources MetaPWR™ Advantage collagen from sustainably harvested cold-water marine fish in Italy and is tested more extensively for heavy metals than any other supplement. Other collagen products on the market, regardless of whether they come from land or marine sources, typically contain tripeptide content of 15–35%. doTERRA’s collagen is over 70% tripeptide fragments for superior absorption.
 
Activated by YOU! Most prepackaged liquid collagens use a process to sterilize their water-based delivery system. Doing so eliminates the harmful bacteria and beneficial active ingredients like vitamins, flavonoids, and polyphenols. And despite this process, they’re actually less shelf stable than MetaPWR™ Advantage. Plus our delivery method decreases carbon emissions by not shipping heavy water. doTERRA’s collagen is  delivered to you in hydrolyzed powder format for a more active and bioavailable delivery system at the time of taking it. Simply mix it with cool or room temperature water immediately before you drink it.

Are you ready to expereince MetaPWR Advantage with Collagen + NMN? If you already have a doTERRA account you can add it to your next order. And if you're taking Lifelong Vitality Supplements the MetaaPWR Advantage can be added onto your LLV for a discount (a $20 savings). If you aren't a doTERRA customer yet and would like for me to be your holistic health journey guide, you can get started with the whole MetaPWR system, plus a free membership (25% off retail for a year - no obligations, order what you want when you want) and free shipping.
