    A Message From Oleda
 
     
 

Hello Friends and Customers,

I don’t remember ever being so busy or working so hard. Not that I mind, mind you; it’s fun, especially when I receive complimentary messages and queries from so many of you. I do my best to answer all personal messages, and my staff, under my supervision, answers the others. So please write whenever you wish.

My staff and I have been working hard developing new products to offer you in the ongoing quest for beauty, health and youthfulness. For the Your Beauty section of http://www.oleda.com/, Oleda Cream Rouge in three shades is finally ready. It’s being packaged now and will be announced before the next Newsletter. Cream Rouge is one of my favorite make-ups—there are so many little tricks you can do with it—but, for some inexplicable reason, creamy rouge has all but disappeared from stores. Now, it’s Oleda to the rescue! Available for shipping in a couple weeks, you’ll see that it doubles as lipstick, too.

As a direct assist in the Anti-Aging department, we are hard at work to develop a Human Growth Hormone (HGH) stimulant that really works. This product should be ready by the end of the year. It takes a long time to develop and test a product like this. We must be sure it’s the best of its kind. HGH replacement and stimulation is an evolving science that shows great promise to enhance the very essence of my mission, namely, to help as many people as possible look, feel and actually be far younger than their chronological age.

Speaking about age, I put myself up as living proof that the number of birthdays we have had is just that – a number that does not, should not represent how we look, feel and act. On my wedding day last year (at age 66!) can you believe my heart was doing flip flops as if I was still in my most nubile twenties? Today, my ”number” is 68. I’m proud of it. I really don’t realize how old I am anymore.…my “number” says one thing and my heart and body always say, “s-o-o-o-o much younger.” My job is to convince you, if you’re skeptical, that another birthday is just another number for you, too. Read on.

But first, on a personal note I would like to share something very important to me. As I’ve already said, in 2001 I became a “young bride.” The ensuing fifteen months have been the most magnificent of my entire life. My husband, Richard, and I are the same age and have so many things in common that we share every day. We’re almost inseparable. So much so that I have convinced him to participate more in Oleda and Company, not just as my advisor, but President of the company. I’ve promoted myself to CEO. What fun having a man like Richard, who has an extensive corporate executive background, “reporting” to me. (Smile! - You can meet him on the web site in “About Oleda” and also in “Your Beauty.”) You’ll be hearing more about our collective activities in the near future.

 
     
 
    Sensational News
 
     
  Experts now say only 30% of how quickly we age is in our genes. The other 70% comes from the choices we make every day. Well, that’s great and important news! But it’s nothing “new” to Oleda who for years has been saying we, ourselves, can take control of our own aging destiny. Now, finally a formal announcement has affirmed it.

A study of some 45,000 twins has shown that environmental influences, not shared genes, accounted for up to 82 percent of the risk of contracting one of eleven types of cancer that were monitored.

Another study of cancer incidence, this time among identical twins—with identical genetic make-ups—showed that concordance was less than 15%, proving again that lifestyle and environment are more important than genes in governing our body’s health.

Beyond these studies, for the most part, skin that looks old is probably sun-damaged. If your skin had never been exposed to the sun, the look and feel of old skin wouldn’t show up until very late in life. And that’s without doing anything for it. Even late in life, with proper care, you can have young looking skin. Protecting your skin from the sun is the most significant thing you can do to prevent wrinkles, dry/aging skin and discoloration. Smoking also ages your skin before its time. It reduces blood flow to the skin, which leads to wrinkles, and interferes with the skin’s natural defense against free radicals.

To go on, life expectancy for a person born today, according to IRS averages, is 82 years. Fifty years ago it was 68. In 1900, average life expectancy was 47 years.

Living past 100 years is becoming less and less uncommon. When Willard Scott of NBC TV started broadcasting the names of centenarians in 1980, the number of letters he received was a mere trickle. Today he gets 400 per week. There are 76,000 people in the US who have reached the age of 100. The Census Bureau forecasts 129,000 by 2010, the year before the Baby Boomers begin to turn 65. In the next century, the prediction is 2,500,000.

Medical research and technology will continue to fight disease and promote longer lives. The question becomes, not if we are going to live longer, but how, and in what condition? Will we be “old” and lifeless, or “young,” beautiful and vital regardless of whatever number our chronological age happens to be? The choice is in our hands.

The cells in our body are always changing…either for the better or for the worse. They can be renewed. Bone cells take the longest—up to a year—but soft tissue cells take much less time to renew. This is a choice you make. Proper diet, exercise and nutritional supplements can help you live a healthier, longer, happier lifespan. Very important also is to get regular medical check ups by your friendly doctor.

A recent study in the American Journal of Physiology found that anti-oxidant intervention, which can come from taking nutritional supplements or from a steady routine of exercise, slows parts of the aging process. Regular exercise or a diet including plenty of anti-oxidants such as vitamin E, vitamin C and beta carotene, fresh vegetables and fruits, all of which fight the tendency of oxygen to slowly break down muscle mass, might protect against the type of tissue and muscle damage, as well as some illnesses, that occur as individuals grow older.

Americans are slowly winning the battle against our most common causes of death and medical research will continue to make new discoveries. However, studies and research have shown that people can’t leave it up to the scientists to find the fountain of youth. We have to take control of our own health and do what we can to live a healthier, longer, happier and more beautiful life. And THAT is plenty!
