Cell Rejuvenation: Growing Younger at the Cellular Level

I just had a birthday and as often happens with that annual milestone, I found myself weighing thoughts of a life well lived and how best to proceed on this positive path. I read an interesting fact regarding the science of your cells and cell rejuvenation. Cells constantly reignite, muscle cells refresh every 90 days and taste buds turn over renewing cells every few hours. On average, you renew about 1 percent of your cells daily and those cells come in either stronger or weaker depending on the chemical signals they receive. It is important that you refresh your cells on a daily basis. It doesn’t matter how you choose to do this, your cells won’t judge, they’ll just rejuvenate. So dance, walk the dog, play ball with your kids, take a relaxing walk on the beach, run in place for ten minutes, work out and get your groove on every day! Trust me your body will hear what you are saying and respond positively! With regular activity, new tissue grows, and cell rejuvenation takes place. Turning 48 gives me another 52 years and then some to shake, rattle and roll. After my birthday dinner, I simply returned home to dance in the living room with joyous laughing children as we regenerated our cells without even thinking about it. I love my life and aging under the platform of Weight Wellness. This is the optimal weight range at which our bodies feel happy and healthy. This is not defined or dictated by aesthetic, shape, weight or tape measure — it is the emotional outcome of feeling good. Most of us assume aging is inevitable, but try thinking of growing old as optional thanks to renewing cells!
