In this short episode, I discuss the relationship between aging and “oxidative stress.” Oxidative stress is what accelerates aging, promotes chronic illness, including brain related conditions, and depletes our energy, focus and quality of life.
Our left brain would like to control our bodies and the natural order, while our right brain would have us paying more attention to our embodied short existence on this planet. Instead of focusing on “anti-aging,” we could consider ways to lower oxidative stress (in a relaxed way).
Here, I comment on:
The double bind of aging in these times
What oxidative stress is
Signs and health conditions associated with oxidative stress
Why we differ in our vulnerability to oxidative stress
Causes of oxidative stress
General ways to address oxidative stress (more on this in future episodes)
The importance of lowering oxidative stress in a relaxed way (so as to not have undo stress increasing oxidative stress!)
I look forward to sharing more details on limiting exposures, and supporting our antioxidant and detoxifications systems in future episodes.
As always, I welcome your thoughts and questions. I learn a lot from your comments.
Until next time,
