Section VI
The Magnificent Seven Prescriptions for Wellness and Longevity
Prescription #6:
Reduce Stress, Enhance Spirituality

Many stressors stimulate the release of ACTH (adrenocorticotropin hormone, 39 amino acids) from the anterior pituitary gland, via stimulation from the hypothalamus peptide, corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH). ACTH increases HGH output but also increases cortisone output from the adrenal gland which ultimately suppresses DHEA production.

Fulfillment of Spiritualism is a necessity for relaxation and satisfaction of the mind.
The mind - body connection is not complete unless the spirit is satisfied.

These recommendations, although simple and relatively easy to follow, can add years - even decades - to your life.
More importantly, they increase immensely the prospect of having those extra years and decades filled with wellness and activity.
