Biomarkers & Hormones: What Are They And Why Are They Important?
Biomarkers are laboratory or clinical values that are classified as markers that:
- Can be used to determine the biological age of a patient
- Results in a clear association with aging
- Result in a relatively narrow standard deviation
- Are supported by multiple complementary research studies
- Are available across the chronological ages of 30-79
Biomarkers of aging offer the most direct means of detecting factors and agents that influence aging in humans. Physiological Biomarkers do more thean just measure the length of life...
The Biomarkers of aging correlate with the quality of life in later years since they involve functions that are crucial to carrying out the activities of daily living. The goal of Anti-Aging medicine is to extend into old age the vigor and relative good health of the middle period of life. Clinical test results can be correlated with blood tests used to distinguish aging acceleration, hormonal imbalance, free radical oxidative damage and antioxidant protection levels.
Measuring these biomarker values is absolutely essential to any quality age-managemnt oriented wellness program.
Hormones:
Hormones are not drugs, they are natural substances that function as messengers within our bodies to stimulate cells to rejuvenate and repair, and are vital for regulating our bodily functions.
As we grow older, there is a decline in our body's ability to produce it natural hormones such as thyroid, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, melatonin and hgh. As the production of these hormones decline, our body's ability to repair and regulate itself does also. As our hormone levels diminish, so do the proper functions of the organs which receive the hormonal signals. This leads to and accelerates the aging process as well as the onset of age related disease.
We concentrate on making you younger from the inside out by returning your hormones to a more youthful state, but never exceed what your body has already been accustomed to in it's younger years. Natural hormone replacement therapy, when provided by a qualified practitioner, is safe and effective for the restoration of youth and wellness.
