This week’s episode explores brain health and longevity in our post-pandemic world. New studies suggest COVID-era isolation may have accelerated brain aging, particularly in older adults. I’ll share simple, science-backed strategies to:
Reverse cognitive decline through intense exercise (like Norwegian 4x4 intervals) that boosts lactate production - a "miracle molecule" for brain function
Regenerate your body using Nobel Prize-winning stem cell research principles
Optimize nutrition with key supplements (D3, magnesium, omega-3s, creatine) that outperform pharmaceuticals
Leverage metabolic hacks like ketosis and infrared saunas to extend both lifespan and "healthspan"
Discover why just 3 weeks of bed rest ages your body more than 30 years of normal aging - and how to combat this with targeted movement. Plus: surprising links between sunlight exposure, dementia prevention, and why your sunbathing post-4pm won't give you any vitamin D.
For deeper dives, revisit episodes 152-154 on mitochondria, telomeres and nitric oxide. Your future self will thank you for implementing even one of these evidence-based longevity tools.
