What On Your Plate Today. Mad cow disease, or bovine spongiform encephalopathy, is caused by a misshapen protein that eats holes in a cow's brain.

Choosing right nutriants can help slow down aging process Using latest information that science has available will help us look and feel younger.

At a young age we are precondition to believe certain things about aging. Maybe your parents said "Everyone in our family lives to be over 100 and they never loss their facilities.", that is what my family said. Maybe yours said "The people in our family die when they are just over 65 they never get to enjoy their retirement." We walk around with a particular notion in our subconscious that we have a pre-defined lifespan of between 60- 90 years Our body’s biological age is a reflection of our physical, mental and spiritual journey through life. In perfect conditions, our bodies can survive to an age of 125 years!

Life style definitely reflects in our bodies, minds and spirits. Say one person lives a healthy active life style. He walks and exercises regularily, is interested in his community, has lots of friends, enjoys his marriage of many years, is reglarily envolved with his children, grandchildren, and greatgrandchildren. He goes to church. He eats well and takes supplements. This man looks forward to each day. He often works well into his later years. Life is fun and living is enjoyable. He probably will live a very long productive life.

Another man or woman lives an isolated life style, very inactive, does not exercise. He has few friends and few intrests in life. He is resentful of his children and does not want to spend time with next generation. He has no belief in a Higher power. Life is not fun for this person. He eats a high calorie, fat filled diet. He will probably have a heart attack or stroke in his late sixties. Life style does count when we are looking at aging.
