The Best Supplements To Take Today For Tomorrow
Often, diseases like arthritis, cancer, dementia, diabetes, and more are associated with aging. We tend to view these diseases as inevitable, something we’ll just have to live with.
We don’t have to.
Taking care of yourself today, means taking care of yourself in the future too. Dr. Warner founded Well Theory as a way to help her patients, and now you – age in a way that encourages continued vibrance and functionality.
Certain lifestyle routines need to be established in order to age well, though. This includes having a healthy diet (Dr. Warner recommends the Mediterranean Diet), leading an active lifestyle, and assisting your diet and exercise with supplements that work with you.
Dr. Warner’s Longevity Series is designed with this philosophy, and most importantly, you in mind.
REVITALIZE CELLS WITH RESVERATROL
Resveratrol is a plant compound found in the skin of grapes. It’s a benefit to drinking red wine, in moderation of course, although red wine doesn’t contain particularly high concentrations of this great anti-aging compound.
It’s an antioxidant supplement that can slow down the aging process and activate AMPK. It has also been found to activate sirtuins. Some call this molecule a ‘fasting mimetic’. Work is ongoing regarding this stilbenoid molecule and its effects on human lifespan.
AMPK is a protein (enzyme) in your body that helps you metabolize glucose and improves mitochondrial health. AMPK is actually a central regulator of metabolism and energy pathways. Turning on AMPK converts activities to catabolism, repair and restoration. This can help keep your blood sugars low and help your body achieve energy homeostasis.
Cell Repair
Resveratrol lowers your risk of cardiovascular disease by improving your cholesterol balance and overall metabolic health.
Resveratrol also reduces inflammation, which helps reduce your chances of certain diseases that can be caused by chronic inflammation. In reducing inflammation, this powerful supplement also lowers your neuroinflammation, reducing your risk of brain-related health concerns.
As an antioxidant supplement, Resveratrol also helps your body fight free radicals, or oxygen reactive species that in disproportionate amounts can lead to oxidative stress and those “age-related” diseases.
Dr. Warner created her single-ingredient capsules with 500mg of Resveratrol, designed to help you reap the benefits of this powerful natural molecule.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BERBERINE?
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BERBERINE?
Berberine is another impressive natural supplement that activates AMPK and improves your overall metabolic health.
While Berberine and Resveratrol both work to activate AMPK, they’re still very different from each other.
Berberine keeps you young at the cellular level by increasing energy consumption and improving mitochondrial function. Through its AMPK activating abilities, it increases insulin sensitivity and is able to balance blood sugar levels.
This balance mimics the capabilities of the diabetic drug, Metformin, but as a natural method, without the side effects.
Because Berberine is able to manage energy levels and maintain homeostasis, it’s also a great way to improve your overall metabolic health. In order to achieve greater metabolic health, you’ll want to hit the ideal levels of these five markers:
- Blood sugar
- Blood pressure
- Triglycerides
- High-density lipoprotein (HDL) ( and its ratio to total cholesterol)
- Waist circumference ( and its ratio to height)
This Well Theory supplement is capable of improving on all five of these markers, making it a great way to improve metabolic health.
Longevity & DNA Repair
Longevity & DNA Repair
If you decide to take our NMN supplement, you’ll be actively helping to slow down your aging process and possibly – your biological age. There is a lot of exciting work being done on changing the ‘epigenetic’ age of cells.
NMN is a precursor molecule to NAD+, an essential enzyme in cell processes. It’s found in the mitochondria, nucleus and cytoplasm, where its benefits include repairing DNA, cell growth, and encouraging a healthy metabolism.
NAD+ repairs DNA by improving energy levels in the mitochondria, therefore reducing oxidative stress levels. When we reduce oxidative stress, we’re lowering our risk for “age-related” diseases that are caused by oxygen reactive species, or free radicals.
NMN can also help you by increasing your aerobic capacity, improving your ability to exercise and muscle strength.
As we age, our natural NAD+ levels decrease, which can lead to physical changes like wrinkles and neurodegenerative diseases or metabolic disorders. This makes supplements like NMN vital to our long-term health.
