Mindsip insights from this episode:
Manifest friendships by listing desired qualities
To attract the right friends, create a three-column list detailing the qualities you want in a friend, the qualities you don't want, and the qualities you must embody yourself.
Regulate nutrient sensing to combat aging
Deregulated nutrient sensing, where your body and food don't work together, is a key hallmark of aging that drives all other hallmarks.
Implement time-restricted eating to activate autophagy
Giving your body a break from eating through time-restricted eating inhibits mTOR and activates autophagy, a self-cleaning process that removes old proteins and inflammatory waste.
Map your friends' energy to enhance your well-being
Create a map of the people you spend time with and color-code them to assess who is bringing you up and who might be bringing you down.
Utilize VIA chart to clarify values, interests, and abilities
Map out your Values, Interests, and Abilities (VIA) in a Venn diagram to understand what you truly care about and what you can bring to a community.
Reframe aging as a disease to challenge cultural perceptions
The way we see aging in our culture, with chronic illness and decrepitude, should be considered a disease and is not a normal or inevitable process.
Leverage NMN supplements to enhance endurance and reverse menopause effects
In a study by David Sinclair, old mice given NMN (a precursor to NAD) ran so far on a treadmill that they broke the machine, and it even reversed menopause in female mice.
Utilize Himalayan buckwheat to eliminate zombie cells and reduce inflammation
Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat contains a unique compound that helps regulate inflammatory systems by killing senescent 'zombie cells' that accumulate as we age.
Build a foundational longevity supplement stack with NAD and polyphenols
A foundational longevity supplement stack could include NAD, HTB Rejuvenate, Vitamin D, and a polyphenol blend with compounds like resveratrol, quercetin, and curcumin.
