Slowing Aging
Did you know that the rate at which you age is partially determined by a small part of your DNA called the telomere? As the telomere's get shorter, so does your chance for a long life.
One factor affecting these process is the presence of a substance in the blood called homocysteine. The more homocysteine, the faster the telomere shortens.
Fortunately, you can completely control your homocysteine levels by taking adequate amounts of 3 very common supplements – Vitamin B-6, Folic Acid and Vitamin B-12.
As an added bonus, lower homocysteine dramatically reduces your chances of a heart attack.
