In today’s episode, we’ll dive into the science behind what ages us, the latest research breakthroughs in eating and aging, and we’ll uncover how our diet and lifestyle impact our bodies at the genetic level, influencing DNA expression and potentially switching off our aging genes. Stay tuned until the end for my six-step actionable protocol to start aging in reverse!

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Utilize plasma exchange to reverse biological age

Plasma exchange, a process of cleaning your blood by removing old plasma and its inflammatory components, may have the most significant impact on reversing biological age.

Reverse biological age with plant-rich, keto-leaning diet in eight weeks

A groundbreaking study showed that a plant-rich, keto-leaning diet with exercise and supplements reversed biological age by an average of 3.23 years in just eight weeks.

Leverage plant stress to activate healing pathways

The principle of phytohormesis suggests that small, non-lethal doses of plant toxins, like those in cruciferous vegetables, beneficially stress your body to activate healing and anti-inflammatory pathways.

Implement time-restricted eating to influence gene expression

Research from the Salk Institute found that time-restricted eating affects the expression of approximately 70% of genes, influencing hormones and activating anti-aging pathways like autophagy.

Reduce biological age by 1.85 years with daily vitamin D3 intake

Taking 4,000 units of vitamin D3 daily, with no other changes, was shown in one study to reduce biological age by 1.85 years in just 16 weeks.

Supplement with fisetin to eliminate zombie cells and reduce inflammation

Fisetin, a phytochemical from strawberries, can be supplemented at 500-1000 milligrams to help kill inflammatory senescent "zombie cells" that accumulate with age.

Supplement with urolithin A to enhance mitochondrial health

Urolithin A, a postbiotic made from pomegranates by gut bacteria, can be supplemented with a product called Mitopure to improve mitochondrial health.

Utilize peptides BPC-157 and Thymosin Alpha-1 for healing and immunity

Specific peptides like BPC-157 and Thymosin Alpha-1 are emerging regenerative therapies that can be used to help with healing and immunity.
