Will eating raw foods, meditation, yoga and drinking 9.5 ph level alkaline water slow down the aging process.?

These are healthy actions and yes, compared to: 1) eating junk food, 2) not exercising and living a 'fast life' and 3) drinking acidic fluids like coffee and sodas, these can 'slow down' aging.\n\nBest wishes.

Boredom. You would definitely die of Boredom first.\n\nSeriously, you could easily subsitute a shake for one meal a day forever with no ill effects but all three? You would most likely have some digestive problems from an all liquid diet.\n\nAlso, even though fortified with vitamins and minerals, it is best to get them in the raw natural form. Without any other supplement from natural foods, you would probably begin to develop nutritional deficiencies whihc could cause problems down the road.\nYou could easily do it for many months, but long term for years, it would get old fast.

I will give you the exact reply.Nope,the grape juice is great to be taken not as you suggest in the evening,but in the mornings.And it really does mirracles.But it is not rich in anto-oxidants too much and as per them the foods,bevearages,where there are really pleanty of them are peppers,carrots,blackberry!!,strwaerries,etc.The scientific researches are shown that a glass of good red wine is a fine option,because is full of anti-oxidants and other substances,which are in immediate connection in anti-aging process,hindering the oxidation on the blood cells,etc.My pal,take into account that in some countries,like Italy and France doctors adviced and administered a to heart suffereing and other patients a glass of red wine.So CHEERS!

If by "raw" you mean dry uncooked, unsoaked, I would venture to say not a good idea.\n\nHowever, I eat uncooked rice, only sprouted/soaked in water for 24-48 hours. This softens it up enough to eat, and removes the enzyme inhibitors that raw dry rice (or any grain for that matter) has that is so very bad for your body. \n\nAvoid any unsprouted grains whenever possible. The enzyme inhibitors wreak havoc on the body's main means of communication within itself. Enzymes. These are how our organs and our system as a whole remain in communication with itself. Remove the means of communication, and you damage the system.

There are many more than what I have listed here, just look around online or even do an ebay search for it, there are endless types out there, the most popular of which is juicing and colon.  I have done the colon detox before and I can vouch that I felt 100 times better after it was done, I am not sure what all it does but it did something right!  Good luck!\n\n\nThere are several types of therapies available for detoxification, and some are more intrusive or less natural than others. It is highly recommended that professional advice from qualified and experienced practitioners be obtained when selecting a particular program. \n\nThe major detoxification therapy categories are: fasting, specific diets, vitamin therapy, colon therapy, chelation therapy, and hyperthermia.\n\nDetoxification therapies run the gamut from self-directed fasting to intravenously-administered synthetic drugs, and none should be undertaken without medical supervision. \n\nAlthough there is limited research data available to prove that detoxification therapies work, proponents report lower blood pressure, reduction in blood fat levels, and better vitamin and mineral absorption as benefits. \n\nWhile there is no doubt that processed food contains additives and preservatives, that drinking water is far from pure, and that air is contaminated, more scientific studies need to be performed to prove that a particular therapy can purify the body of these toxins.\n\nFasting \n\nThis is certainly the least expensive and easiest therapy to attempt, but it should always be preceded by a visit to a qualified health professional or nutritionist. Fasting is generally done for a limited, specific number of days.\n\nAll fasting regimens permit water to be consumed, for it is essential to prevent dehydration. Others allow juice as well, although purists consider this to be food. \n\nThe main rationale for fasting is that since far fewer toxins are taken in, the body is able to rid itself of those already present. \n\nDiets\n\nProponents say that a strong immune system founded on a plant-based diet is the best defense against environmental toxins. As opposed to fasting, detoxification or detox diets as they are more commonly known, can be undertaken for extended periods of time. \n\nAlthough there are many different types of detox diets, most are based on eating organic rather than processed foods, minimizing meats and maximizing fruits and vegetables, and drinking filtered water. \n\nTraditional Chinese Medicine practitioners also hold that certain foods, like radishes, turnips, soybeans, swiss chard, and vinegar, can actually counteract or neutralize toxins. \n\nVitamin Therapy\n\nThe use of antioxidants is generally recommended as an ongoing, daily regimen in people's lives, especially if they are in a compromised, or particularly unhealthy environment. \n\nSome feel that certain vitamins, such as C and E, are antioxidant nutrients capable of neutralizing certain toxins called free radicals. \n\nA free radical is a particular type of atom or group of atoms that can damage cells and impair a person's immunity system. While our bodies contain natural enzymes that work against these free radicals, some argue that vitamins C and E as well as the beta-carotene in vitamin A function as free-radical scavengers, thus neutralizing the toxins that harm our immune systems. \n\nColon Therapy\n\nColonics or cleansing the large intestine with purified water, herbs, or other cleansing agents, is sometimes combined with fasting to flush out toxins from the body. \n\nA step beyond a simple enema, this procedure is performed by a trained therapist who introduces from 5-25 gal (19-941 l) of water, or other cleansing agents, directly into the rectum using a tube and nozzle. \n\nThis technique is supposed to remove toxic stool that remains in the folds of the intestine. If performed improperly or too frequently, it can be dangerous. \n\nChelation Therapy\n\nThe most common type of

I dunno about any special training but as far as I know, vitamin E is the best nutrition to slow down the ageing process

It's me  :)  Can't resist this one  lol\n\nGoji is a very powerful antioxidant rich in flavenoids and phytonutrients which rapidly change your blood from acidity to alkalinity.\nIt starts with the small intestine, when it hits your bloodstream it literally starts to kill the free radicals and Inflammation.\nInflammation in the body is deadly, it leads to heart disease, athsma and auto-immune dysfunction.\nConsume as many raw fruits and vegetables as you can, as they will help your blood return to an alkaline state and help to remove free radicals which is what leads to disorders such as peyronies.\nGoji offers a host of unique benefits that should be of great interest to anyone fighting depression.  As an adaptogen, it helps the body to adapt to and cope with stress and provides energy reserves to help you handle just about any difficulty.  It also fights fatigue and boosts stamina, while improving sleep quality.

A health check would be advisable before a diet can be determined.\n\nI you have high cholesterol or high sugar. Adjustments would need to be made in your diet accordingly.\n\nI am a 95% vegetarian, but I include wild salmon, sardines or  mackerel for the Omega3 that is available from that source. It is hard to get the right EPA Omega3 fatty acids from an entirely vegetarian diet. Flax and Borage does not have EPA which is very important in preserving the cognizance and memory and helps keep down cholesterol.\n\nOne suggestion I have is that you also check your body type. Indian Ayurvedic Medicine has some good suggestions based on your body type. I do not go STRICTLY by Ayurvedic, but I do tend to follow it generally.\n\nThere is a new "FAD" diet that suggest that you "Eat Right 4 Your Type", a book that suggest your diet be based on your blood type. I do not feel that this has any scientific validity as it overlooks the genetics, trauma or diseases you might have had. I does not take your CURRENT health into  consideration.\n\nGood luck and good health in your adventure.

Depends on your budget, and your sense of nutrition. A vegetarian diet does wonders, no processed foods just raw foods, (no or very few fats either) accompanied with exercise of course. Now, you can increase your metabolism with exellerants like this new hootia, or hydroxycut or a varierty of health food metabolism exellerators, but DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT consume these diet drinks!!\n  Why? Because they contain artificial sweeteners which have proven to cause a variety of nerve, eye and digestion problems not to mention migranes and carcinoma! (PLEASE dont assume the FDA always has your health in mind).\n\n   Hope this hasnt confused.......

I used to drink hot water with half a lemon and a pinch of cayenne pepper first thing in the morning for about a year. It was a habit I picked up from a "DETOX DIET" book. I did not do it to lose weight, though. It is supposed to cleanse your internal passages and make your bowels regular. I think it worked for that!

Yes!\n\nIsagenix is a great cleanser.\n\nToxins in the body from commercial vegetables, fast foods, breathing dirty air, drinking unpurified water, and the loss of natural hormones contributes to weight gain, premature aging and nearly every age-related health problem. Over eating and consumption of the wrong types of food also contribute to weight gain and obesity.\n\nChemicals and toxins accumulate in fat tissue. The more chemicals and toxins, the more fat the body manufactures. Have you ever tried to lose weight only to be disappointed? Well, perhaps now you know the reason why! Most diets, lotions, pills, potions, and powders use unhealthy and potentially dangerous ingredients, such as ma huang, ephedra, and caffeine that promise fast weight loss. Yes, but the weight loss is primarily water and lean muscle. Minimal fat is lost because these products do not address the cleansing of the system.\n\nWithout proper cleansing the lost lean muscle and water return as fat, thus people are actually fatter versions of their prior selves. Chemicals and toxins are bound within fat tissue, and only specifically blended nutrients can contribute to releasing the chemicals from fat. This is the healthy alternative to nutritionally deficient, disappointing and potentially deadly diets.\n\nFeel free to contact me if you would like more info.

As far back in American medical history as the Macrobiotic Movement, the concept of a complementarity in the body and foods between an expansive and contractive process, a yin and yang force or quality, or an acidic or alkaline set of realities, has been an accepted reality.  I think it is a fact that all foods have either an alkaline or acidic reaction within the body. The problem is that this is not something that lends itself to empirical testing. One the miracle of digestion begins and "bread becomes blood," there is a profound alchemical transformation of a substances' properties, and this reflects well into the paradoxes you find in acid/alkaline or yin/yang manifestations, e.g. citrus fruit that taste acidic are profoundly alkalinizing to the tissues. Or, milk which tastes sweet soft and alkaline, has a very acidic and hardening effect on the organism. \n\nIn a nut shell, I would assume eating alkaline is predestined in our metabolism, and it is a good idea to exclude the commonly acidic foods that our modern food industry has invented with chemical invention. But the focus shouldn't be on micromanaging numbers...how you feel is essential, and making sure that the intent in the food act is there, that the food is local and organic, and these particularities are far more important than whether one has it the projected number of 7.5 alkalinity, etc.

If you go to this link you can see a huge list of what foods are considered alkaline.\nhttp://www.essense-of-life.com/info/foodchart.htm

See this site about losing weight since it explains the foods that are the healthiest. Plus it has a webpage on fasting with info on it by 8 MDs. It is the most powerful anti-aging method known to man, but you sacrifice your enjoyment of eating a few days.\n\nThere was this guy who could walk on water and bring the dead back to life but He (Jesus) felt He needed to fast 40 days. Mahatma Gandhi was famous for this and died at 79. But he was assisinated by being shot dead. Fasting saves you time and money.\n\nhttp://phifoundation.org\n\nIf you don't want to fast but spend money then click on the site with herbal products from the Amazon including camu camu fruit with 40 times as much vitamin C as oranges \n\nhttp://phiherbs.com\n\nI do both fasting and using these herbal foods from a pristine and pure environment (the rainforest).

No but this will help get rid of it. You need to eat lots of Greens and Beans, avoid meat and drink plenty of fluids. Your body is to acidic and you need to eat alkaline foods. Watermelon is very alkaline too.

No it is not true. Ageing is a natural process of decay. We live in a decaying world and as with all equipment our bodies decay. If we were to even slow the proces of aging the world would be a mess and over populate at a rate that could not be substrained thus the balance of the natural order would cause even greater poverty and hunger in the world. So why would we want to even try and slow the ageing process.
