Spend 10 Days in Bed? Your Mitochondria Will Pay the Price
Listen, we all know sitting for long stretches isn’t ideal. Specifically, the mentally draining, physically exhausting, waistband-expanding kind of “not ideal.” But the why has always been a little fuzzy. What is it about not moving that holds us back from our TRUE biological potential? Well, new data suggests part of the answer lies in […]
Can Swapping Out Organs Make You Live Longer?
If organ failure is usually the last straw that breaks the human’s… well, longevity back (aka, life), then the solution should be pretty straightforward, right? Just swap out the worn-out parts. We already have the technology to do it for many of them. Gene-edited pig organs are being tested in people, and lab-grown organs are […]
Skipping Breakfast Linked to 2.5 Fewer Years? Here’s The REAL Longevity Story
Well, turns out breakfast might be the most important meal of the day again. At least until the next study drops. Because new data tracking more than 31,000 adults for nearly nine years found that eating your first meal after noon (12pm) was linked to roughly 2.5 fewer years of life. Yeah, wild claim, I […]
AI Built 750 People Their Own Cancer Therapy. But You Still Have Work to Do
Believe it or not, the best longevity advice anyone can give you right now is, ironically, to stay alive. Not in the sense of just enduring as long as you can. But instead, in the sense of sticking around long enough to let this cross-pollination of science and technology do its thing, and uncover the […]
The MOST IMPORTANT Sleep Stage to Slow Aging (It’s Not Deep Sleep)
For anyone who’s ever woken up feeling like they’ve been hit by a bus, you already know all sleep is not created equal. So this research team confirming it, is just a technicality. Ok, Fine. Maybe a little more than a technicality, because the team behind this new study looked at something nobody had mapped […]
STEPS AREN’T ENOUGH. What 70-Year-Olds With YOUNG Mitochondria Do Instead
10,000 steps a day has been THE number for what feels like a good two decades now. The activity sweet spot that checks all the biological boxes to outpace that buzzkill, the Grim Reaper. The number that makes YOUR chronological number hit the brakes. And of course, equilibrium that decides whether you’ve earned your evening […]
3 Minutes of Sprinting BETTER THAN 90 Minutes of Cardio? (New Study)
You know what they say… why spend 90 minutes on something you can do in three, right? Well, this might be the best news you’ve heard all week. New research out of Rockefeller University just compared the proteomic and metabolomic response (aka the proteins and metabolites circulating in your blood) of short all-out bursts versus […]
NEW Glymphatic Science: Exercise Boosts Your Brain’s Nightly Clean – HERE’S MY ROUTINE
In a weird twist of evolutionary fate, your brain doesn’t have a lymphatic system, aka that vast network of vessels and nodes that collects and removes cellular crap throughout the rest of your body. Which yes, means every other organ gets an elaborate plumbing network to haul out the trash, while the brain gets a […]
I Fasted 40 Hours — 3 Blood Markers Did Something Unexpected
You’re Not a Textbook Human. None of us are. We’re all out in the wild, throwing hundreds of variables at our bodies every day. So no, it doesn’t make sense to expect everyone’s blood work to land in the same exact range. I mean, they call them “reference ranges” for a reason. So the sooner […]
Can Your LEG MUSCLE Predict BRAIN DECLINE?
A lot can happen in ten years. Which makes seeing into the future, especially when it comes to your one and only pretty cool meat, a pretty valuable edge. I mean, I would almost guarantee that if someone handed you your exact health status a decade from now, you’d surely change some of your present-day […]
SITTING IS NOT the NEW SMOKING | Here’s the Truth
If you haven’t been living under a rock for the last decade, you’ve probably heard that sitting is the new smoking. The “new” publicly accepted, enjoyable, everyday lifestyle habit that feels ever so relaxing while you’re doing it, yet is secretly deteriorating your health from the inside out. Kinda hard to believe, right? Well, for […]
65-Year-Olds With the Mitochondria of 25-Year-Olds — Here’s Their SECRET
Getting younger at the cellular level is a pretty cool idea. But for now, that’s where it stops — as an idea. That said, a more youthful molecular expression, appearance, and function of your key cellular components — compared to same-aged peers — IS a Real Thing. A thing we in the biz call preserving […]
