aging

Aging is the process by which a biological system proceeds through a natural life cycle, ultimately resulting in death. The speed and nature of aging is strongly determined genetically. Depending on the amount of Jing in the original life cells of the fetus, the length of life is partially determined and the maximum life span is essentially established. However, the loss of Jing due to stress, illness or abuse will hasten the aging process.

Many of the tonic herbs have anti-aging effects. The most famous anti-aging herbs include Lycium Fruit, Schizandra Fruit, Gynostemma, Polygonum Root (He Shou Wu), Reishi Mushroom, Pearl Powder, Cordyceps Mushroom, Longan Fruit, Siberian Ginseng, Wild American Ginseng, Wild Chinese Ginseng, Wild Asparagus Root, and Ant.

Blood tonic herbs like Dang Gui and Peony also prevent aging. These herbs promote the beauty of the human body and slow down the processes of aging.
