Anti Aging Secrets From Grandma Can Be Modernized

2. When you stand up, imagine someone pulling a string through your ears towards the ceiling.

Poor posture is one of the signs that you are aging fast. Imagine all the stresses of normal life that are accumulated by the time a person gets to be 40, 50, 60 or even 80. These are weighing you down and giving your body reasons not to stand up straight.

Grandma imagined the string to keep her posture upright, but you can go far beyond her idea. As a modern day posture improvement device, get some inversion boots or an inversion table. It’s a quick way to ensure proper alignment.

3. Chew your food on both sides of your mouth before you swallow.

The purpose of this one of Grandma’s anti aging secrets is to keep your stomach well and ensure proper digestion. A modern day version would be to take digestive enzymes and betaine hydrochloride; however, if you still don’t chew your food when you eat, you block some of your own digestive health from occurring.

Chewing your food on both sides of your mouth has another advantage – it keeps your face symmetrical.

4. When sitting in a chair, pull your feet up off the floor from time to time to tighten your stomach.

Grandma had a whole series of abdominal exercises figured out in her mind to ensure a flat stomach. A modern day version of this would be to get some of the latest electrical stimulation devices that may be attached to the skin over the abdominal area. Once you turn on the electrical stimulation device, contraction occurs in the abdominal muscles. The device is worn for 20 minutes or longer. The stimulation keeps the muscles toned.

The answers are out there if you want to look youthful into old age; and modernizing anti aging secrets is fun. Start with a visit to your grandparents, then your friends’ grandparents, and even senior citizens’ groups.
