I'm turning 65 this year and feel younger, fitter, and more vibrant than ever. Thanks to my longevity routine, I’ve been able to reverse my biological age by 20 years, plus an additional year in the past five months alone!

As I grow older, I’ve learned that what’s possible when we nourish our bodies, get regular exercise, quality sleep, and manage our stress – we can effectively turn back our biological clock. Add a supplement stack and hormetic stressors to activate our longevity switches, and you’re setting a solid foundation for lasting health. So, how does someone in their 60s build muscle and sport abs that could rival their younger selves? 

In today’s Health Bites episode, I’m sharing the exclusive details behind my longevity routine that anyone can try on their journey towards a healthier, longer life. Whether you want to sharpen your mind, enhance your physique, or simply feel younger, this episode is for you. Remember, it’s not just about adding years to your life, but life to your years. 

In this episode, I discuss:

  • My morning routine for longevity (2:46)

  • How I get the benefits of exercise in minimal time (3:23)

  • A look at the ingredients in my Healthy Aging Shake (5:54)

  • What I eat in a day (lunch and dinner) to support longevity (11:46)

  • The role of dietary protein for longevity and how much to eat every day(15:03)

  • How to activate your longevity switches using the power of hormesis (23:00)

  • Top tips for active relaxation and rejuvenation (28:51)

  • My nightly routine for sleep optimization (30:01)

  • The supplement I take for optimal health and longevity (32:01)

  • Why lab testing is crucial for longevity and optimal health (33:31)

  • Personal experience and experimentation with advanced longevity therapeutics (36:55)

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Choose goat whey for reduced inflammation and gut health

He uses regeneratively raised goat whey protein because it contains A2 casein, which is less inflammatory and easier on the gut than the A1 casein in most cow whey.

Ensure plant protein includes sufficient leucine for muscle building

Most plant proteins lack sufficient leucine, an amino acid crucial for activating muscle building, requiring about 2.5 grams per serving to be effective.

Add Mitopure to your shake for enhanced muscle synthesis and fitness

He adds Mitopure, a postbiotic with Urolithin A, to his morning shake to clean up old mitochondria, increase muscle synthesis, and improve fitness.

Combat anabolic resistance with increased protein and exercise

As you age, you develop 'anabolic resistance,' meaning you need more protein and more exercise to build the same amount of muscle you did when younger.

Test biomarkers to personalize your supplement plan

Instead of guessing which supplements you need, use comprehensive biomarker testing, like the Function Health panel, to personalize your plan based on your unique biology.

Experience advanced therapy with plasmapheresis for rejuvenation

An advanced, experimental therapy called plasmapheresis acts like a biological 'oil and filter change' by removing your blood, filtering out the old plasma, and returning the cells.

Preserve muscle to enhance longevity and metabolic health

Muscle is the currency of longevity, and its loss leads to a slower metabolism, hormonal imbalances, increased inflammation, and a decline in overall function.

Incorporate TB12 bands for safe and effective strength training

For strength training, he uses the TB12 resistance band system because it's portable, effective for building muscle at any age, and has a lower risk of injury than weights.
