HEALTHY LIVING
meditation has been shown to improve both the quality and duration of sleep. Practices like body scanning and deep breathing help relax the nervous system, promoting restorative sleep, explains Serle. Better pain management. Chronic
pain, often associated with conditions like arthritis or back problems, is a significant concern for aging adults. Mindfulness meditation changes how the brain processes pain, reducing its intensity and helping individuals cope more effectively, Serle says. Boosts immune function. Stress

and a stronger immune response.
Maintains cognitive health.
Cognitive decline is one of the most feared aspects of aging. Mindfulness practices, particularly focused attention and loving- kindness meditation, promote neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to form new connections. Serle notes that studies have shown that mindfulness can enhance memory, attention, and overall cognitive function, potentially slowing the progression of dementia.
SOCIAL BENEFITS Mindfulness programs combat loneliness, a pervasive issue for many older adults that has been linked to adverse health outcomes, notes Hong. Group-based mindfulness programs, such as MBSR or yoga classes, provide not only the benefits of meditation but also opportunities for social connection. Practicing mindfulness in a group
setting fosters a sense of belonging and community. Many participants report feeling more connected and understood, reducing the sense of isolation that often accompanies aging.

enowned cardiologist Chauncey Cran- dall, M.D., warns all his patients to keep

no warning symptoms, borderline blood pressure readings can be present without knowing it. Dr. Crandall has made it his mission to
help people with stubborn blood pressure problems.

Prize for their discovery of a special mol- ecule called nitric oxide (NO). NO helps blood pressure and circula-
tion by relaxing arteries to promote opti- mal blood fl ow. As a bonus benefi t, NO also helps enhance male performance. Since NO is a gas, it can’t be taken as
a supplement. A precursor — the amino acid L-arginine — needs to kickstart the process. The trouble is, with age, the body produces less and less arginine internally. That’s why Dr. Crandall made a sus-
tained-release form of L-arginine the fl ag- ship ingredient in his advanced blood pressure and circulatory support formula VENTRICORE. ® VENTRICORE contains six ingredients for blood pressure support. In addition
