 Telomeres are considered an index of cell age and are like a clock of the cell's lifespan. Telomere shortening means the cell's lifespan is shortening. Recent research shows that telomere shortening plays an important role in human disease and mortality. More than 20 studies have shown associations between shorter telomere length and various types of cardiovascular disease (e.g., stroke, heart attacks) and diabetes. Shorter telomeres have also been associated with cancer, osteoporosis, cognitive function, dementia, and arthritis. On the flip-side, long telomeres are related to healthy aging and overall longevity. Telomeres have no genetic function; they are simply stretches of DNA (repeats of base pairs) that protect the rest of the chromosome. These little bits of DNA are critical to healthy cell function and have been likened to the plastic tips on shoelaces because they prevent the chromosome from "fraying." |
It is well known that the aging process results in failing hormonal vigor. This is the basis of menopause in women and the less appreciated but no less profound process of andropause in men.
Our goal at Sanctuary is to restore these waning levels to more nearly approximate the levels and more youthful ratios to achieve the balance you experienced in your mid-thirties.
This is how we can offer you the Super-Hormone Rejuvenation promise:
More youthful vigor
Optimum energy levels
Rejuvenated skin appearance and elasticity
Enhanced libido and sexual performance
Why Natural or Bioidentical Hormones?
In saying Natural, we mean that the hormones prescribed and used in our practice are identical to the native sex steroids that your body produces. Thus, the newer term, bioidentical hormones. These are not foreign. Although they may be synthesized in the lab they approximate the normal actions of your own internal hormonal levels
Solution: Balanced Therapy
The natural bioidentical hormonal replacement therapy program at Sanctuary is based on the notion that none of these individual hormones exist in isolation. Rejuvenation involves the carefully balanced replacement of multiple hormone levels.
