Anti Aging Medicine | Nutritional Medicine Rejuvenation Medicine a comprehensive system of repairing and optimizing the function of the body is a therapeutic solution to many of the problems associated with aging. The primary goal is to provide many levels of support for patients to feel and function as well as possible. Since growing older usually brings wisdom and self-knowledge, it is poignant that this is all too often accompanied by a decline in function and a lack of ability and desire to contribute and create. The youthful health and vitality provided by Rejuvenation Medicine effectively addresses this problem so that the second half of our lives can be the most satisfying and productive. Rejuvenation Medicine increases body reserves and enhances the body’s ability to heal itself at the cellular level. It provides individualized treatments utilizing Hormonal, Nutritional and Herbal therapies directly with specific individual symptom or health problem (i.e. cognitive/memory, fatigue, decrease in sexual function, weight loss) It is based on the knowledge that there is always room for improvement in the many aspects of Health. Rejuvenation Medicine works at the Biochemical Level to improve Emotional, Physical, Psychological, Sexual, and Mental Functioning. Anti-Aging Medicineidentifies Age-Related Hormone Deficiencies as the major factor in the steady decline in function that occurs as people age. Hormone Replacement Therapy is the most effective preventative strategy to enhance health and vitality. By increasing anabolic reserves to combat the catabolic pressures inherent in the wear and tear of living (the constant replacement and repair of our cells) combined with the stress of toxic environmental exposures and sub-optimal health practices (i.e. insufficient sleep and dietary indiscretions)After the age of 25 our hormonal support diminishes and we are left with an age-related handicap that is now easily treatable. Unless a specialist in Anti-Aging Medicine checks you, you will not know whether you have an age-related deficiency of Growth Hormone, DHEA, Testosterone, pregnenolone, thyroid, estrogen or progesterone. Modern Science has provided us with the ability to restore youthful levels of these hormones with “natural” hormones that are identical in structure and biological activity to the hormones currently in our bodies. This eliminates the potential risk of having the side effects that occur when a foreign chemical is introduced into the body. Nutritional Medicineprovides optimum fuel to enable the body to function and repair itself. By insuring an adequate intake of essential nutrients it is a form of Health Insurance that is prudent and preventative.When you are rebuilding and repairing the body with Hormonal Replacement Therapy, your need for the building blocks of high quality food and essential vitamins and minerals is increased. Because Nutritional and Herbal Medicine is also used to treat disease, we do thorough research to find the highest quality supplements to offer our patients. You can rest assured that the supplements provided by us are the highest quality both in content and in absorbability and utilizability. Rejuvenation Medicine offers scientific manageable solutions to the problem of aging. After extensive research the New York Timesreported "growth hormone therapy... helps people stay stronger, leaner, and more mobile in their later years... replacing these hormones might help ward off diseases as more and more people live into their 80's and beyond."Newsweek Newsweek magazine published..."hormones are the ultimate antidate to aging and we advocate replacements therapy for both sexes." Growing older brings wisdom and contentment. Aging begins a steady decline in strength and vitality. Growing older is a function of time passing. Aging is caused by dramatic losses in essential biochemicals that control thinking, sleeping, eating, moving, and love making. Shockingly, these biochemical drivers commonly known as hormones, begin diminishing at age 25. Between the ages of 44 and 55, these hormones levels drop significantly, in most cases, to to a fraction of what they were. So what are these hormones and what do they affect: Where Some Hormones Come From* GROWTH HORMONE is produced by the Pituitary Gland. * PREGNENOLONE and DHEA(dihydroeplandrosterone) from the Cortex of adrenal glands above the Kidneys * ESTROGEN & PROGESTREONE and produced by the ovaries before menopause in women * TESTOSTERONE is produced by the Sex glands ....and What They Affect + PREGNENOLENE increases memory, improves moods, reduces fatigue and arthritis pain. + GROWTH HORMONE improves heart, lung and kidney function, enhances Immune function, reverses osteoporosis, Increases skin thickness and tome and reduces wrinkles, Increases muscle mass, strength and endurance, reduces body fat, improves mood and increases energy. + DHEA benefits the heart and immune function, improves sleep and mobility and lessens joint pain. + ESTROGEN & PROGESTERONE help protect against heart disease, senility and osteoporosis. + TESTOSTERONE replacement improves men's muscle mass and strength, bone density, sense of well-being, cognitive function and balance, as well as enhancing sexual function. Based on the latest breakthroughs in genetic engineering and moleculatr biology, the rejuvenation program at The Longevity Clinic of La Jolla uses natural, scientifically proven therapies to restore your biochemistry to levels you enjoy in your youth. |
