Anti Aging
Most modern anti aging information and products promoted these days are designed to sell you an expensive product that is manufactured by scientists in a laboratory. Most of them are made with synthetic chemicals and compounds. They usually find a naturally occurring source in nature with beauty and health properties and find a way to isolate some parts of it to be synthesized artificially in the lab. Then they apply for a patent to protect their large research & development investment. This protects them from competitors so they can charge a high price for their patented product.
Most of their discoveries come from observing and then researching the ancient wisdom passed down by communities, countries and cultures. They then experiment with these natural remedies and recipes involving: animals, bark, essential oils, flowers, foods, fruits, herbs, leaves, nuts, oils, plants, roots, seeds and spices. They are looking for ways to unlock Mother Nature’s secrets and copy them.
Unfortunately while attempting to copy Mother Nature they are actually creating synthetic chemicals and compounds. This results in the creation of artificial and synthetic products masquerading as natural and safe. By altering, chemical engineering, deodorizing, distilling, heating, processing, refining, synthesizing and treating combined with many harmful chemical additives they create the perfect laboratory Frankenstein compounds for longer shelf life, marketability and profitability.
There ultimate derivative is so altered from nature that not only will it not work as well as the natural version from Mother Nature but will most likely be harmful and toxic due to the manufacturing process. When scientists work their magic in the laboratory and believes, conceives and deceives they can do better than Mother Nature you may want to remember “Caveat Emptor” which translates as “Buyer Beware.” Look for natural programs and organic whole foods to form the foundation for your health and longevity.
Be sure to invest your energy and time to do better due diligence and research to fully understand the adverse reactions, potential complications, side effects and warnings before investing your money. If it has a patent you can be sure it is an artificial and synthetic man made chemical or compound and some red flag warnings will be listed in the ingredients label.
