ABSTRACT
This chapter provides illustrations show that through a nutritional and pharmaceutical approach authors can markedly affect gene expression and DNA at the intracellular level. As they have a positive impact on these processes, they directly affect hormonal levels, which helps to restore balance and function to the endocrine, immune, digestive, and central nervous systems. It is at this level that these systems begin to self-integrate among each other. A homeostasis effect, similar to that present in a youthful, healthy individual, is accomplished. Built upon these improvements are the observable total body changes that occur with exercise, diet and mind-body techniques. For improving control of glycation, supplements that improve insulin sensitivity are recommended. These include alpha-lipoic acid, especially in the time-release form called Glucotize, along with vanadium, chromium, zinc, taurine, fenugreek and bitter gourd.
