Bowhead Whales live 200 years. Greenland Sharks live 400+ years. Why can they, and why can’t we? It’s either a software or a hardware issue, and we’re gaining the tools this decade fix those issues. In 2018, after the analysis of a 54-million-person ancestry database, scientists announced that lifespan has little to do with genes. In fact, heritability is accountable for roughly 7% of your longevity. It’s NOT your genetics. It IS your lifestyle. That means that 93% percent of your longevity is attributed to how you live. Here are my 10 tips for life-extending practices in 2024. And the good news is you can do most of them at no cost: Tip #1: Sugar is a poison... (sorry, but true!) Excess sugar intake is devastating causing higher blood pressure, inflammation (cardiac and neuro), weight gain, diabetes, fatty liver disease and is a fuel for cancer. Tip #2: The Order in which you eat your meal matters! Eat your Veggies (fiber) first, then your protein, and your carbs last. It is healthier, and you’ll lose weight. Tip #3: Adding Muscle is key to longevity. In a long-term study of over 3,600 seniors indicated that muscle mass was a better predictor of longevity than BMI. Eat 1.0 gram of protein per pound of body weight to maintain and add muscle. Spread out protein throughout the day. Tip #4: Zone-2 training is the best way to increase VO2 max and improve your mitochondria. Your Zone 2 heart rate is approx. (220 – Age) x 70% (for me is 110 bpm). Try to sustain Zone-2 for an hour 3-times per week. Tip #5: Being able to perform 40 push-ups can reduce stroke and heart disease by 96%, increases strength, and improves growth hormone. Tip #6: You *need* 8 hours of sleep – evolution would have done away with sleep otherwise. Sleep boosts memory, enhances concentration, augments creativity, boosts the immune system, and staves off deadly ailments like cancers and heart disease.Less than 6 hours is harmful to your health. Tip #7: Try sleeping in a cold room (I set my mine to 64 deg F) -- it allows you to enter deep sleep. Getting to bed at a consistent time (for me it’s 9:30pm) is more important than when you wake up. AND, give yourself a 1 hour wind-down period (for me 8:30 – 9:30pm) with no bright blue-light (i.e. TV or phones) and/or wear blue-light-blocking glasses. Tip #8: No caffeine after 12N. No Food at least 2 hours before bed. Minimize alcohol (for me it’s zero). Tip #9: Sirtuins are THE KEY to supporting DNA repair and Gene Regulation. How can we rejuvenate and amplify our sirtuins’ effectiveness? The Answer: NAD+. How do you increase NAD+? One answer: NMN. Tip #10: Optimists Live Longer! In a study of 69,744 women and 1,429 men, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, it was found that optimistic people live as much as 15% longer than pessimists! Most of the tips above are things you can start implementing TODAY. And most importantly, develop a Longevity Mindset- part of the work is in believing you will live longer, the rest is in putting in the effort to shape a healthy lifestyle. This is just a sneak peek of what I go in depth in my new book. If you’d like to read more about my Longevity Practices, get the book here: bit.ly/48Hv1j6
