The Programme
The No Nips No Tucks™ Programme helps you to incorporate lifestyle changes that will leave you looking and feeling more youthful and energised. Everything you need to know is contained in the No Nips No Tucks™ Programme Guide. It explains why and how we age, and features an anti-ageing eating plan and recipes, an exercise plan to preserve and build your muscle and keep you strong and youthful, and information and tips on other aspects of ageing including retaining youthful supple skin, healthy hair and managing stress.
What does the programme involve?
The programme involves three components:
- Dietary modification that will ensure you eat the right foods that can protect, repair and rejuvenate cells, tissues and organs
- A simple physical activity programme that will preserve and build muscle and connective tissue
- Nutritional supplements, including a specially formulated anti-ageing blend
What will you achieve if you follow the Programme?
- Your metabolism will increase
- You will develop more muscle mass
- You will be physically stronger
- You will lose excess body fat
- You will have more energy
- You will be less stressed
- Bone density will improve
- Your immune system will improve leading to more resistance against the microbes that cause ill health
- Your blood-sugar levels will normalise, making it easier to manage your weight
- Your hair condition will improve, often growing thicker
- Your collagen will be protected against damage by free radicals, and collagen production will improve leading to stronger blood vessels and tauter, thicker, less wrinkled skin
- With supplementation, your levels of the hormones directly linked to ageing – HGH and DHEA – will normalise, reinforcing all of the above benefits
All of the above claims have been proven in the scientific studies and clinical trials upon which the No Nips No Tucks™ Programme is based.
Why does it work?
Because it is based on proven methods of improving the markers of ageing. Age Markers are the biological markers of age, and changes in your lifestyle can improve these markers, and, as a consequence slow, stop and even reverse the ageing process resulting in you feeling and looking younger.
The Programme addresses these age markers: metabolism, muscle mass, physical strength, percentage body fat, bone density, energy and aerobic capacity, hormone levels, blood-sugar level, immune function, skin and hair condition and stress levels.

The Truth about Ageing
A little while ago I was explaining to a lady who runs an alternative health centre what I do and my specialism in anti-ageing. “What’s wrong with ageing?” she asked. I was rather taken aback by this question. Not because I’m not used to defending my work to the many sceptics out there, but because I expected her to know better. However it made me realise that she had made the common mistake that many of us make in thinking that getting older and ageing are the same thing.
To many, anti-ageing brings to mind wrinkles (or avoiding them), and expensive skin creams. It has connotations of vanity, self-obsessiveness
and of vainly denying the inevitable. Nothing could be further from the truth. The answer to the lady’s question is that everything is wrong with ageing!There’s nothing wrong with getting older, in fact it’s rather appealing because as we add years to our lives we increase in knowledge, learn from our mistakes (hopefully) and acquire wisdom. But there is a big difference between getting older and ageing.
Ageing is the degeneration of cells, tissues and organs that ultimately ends in dysfunction, frailty and decrepitude. It doesn’t just affect you on the surface. Yes, your skin wrinkles on the outside, but if ageing is left to continue unabated, tissues and organs shrink, muscles atrophy and weaken, bone density decreases and the end result is reduced immunity leaving you more susceptible to disease and ill-health, weakness and frailty. With this comes a dramatic deterioration in quality of life leading to a loss of independence and dependency on others.
Getting older is natural and inevitable, Ageing is not. Scientific study has now shown us that ageing can be prevented. It is a choice, and my work educates you about the changes in your lifestyle that you can implement that will slow, stop and even reverse the ageing process. If we implement these changes, we will stay strong, energised and youthful as we get older.
