Biohacking & HealthSpan

Metabolic flexibility is an ability of our body to process different types of fuel we consume into energy. Associate with a whole host of benefits from increased energy levels to improved sleep and athletic performance, metabolic flexibility is one of the most foundational, farthest-reaching health metrics.

In this post, learn about the difference between metabolic flexibility vs. metabolic syndrome, why we need metabolic flexibility to thrive and how to undo the damage of metabolic syndrome and regain metabolic flexibility over time.

People in the Blue Zones often live to be over 100 while keeping their good health. But what is their secret?

There 5 recognized Blue Zone regions located in different parts of our planet. But despite the long distance between these populations, there are some diet and lifestyle habits they all have in common.

In this post, we look at 6 dietary habits of people from the Blue Zones that are linked to a longer, healthier life.

Caloric restriction is popular and one of the most well-researched approaches for wellbeing and longevity. But can you achieve caloric restriction without following a strict diet or cutting down portion sizes?

The answer is caloric restriction mimetics (CRM) - compounds that imitate calorie restriction effects without reducing long-term food intake.

In this post, we explain the mechanism of how calorie restriction can help lengthen the lifespan and what supplements offer compatible calorie restriction effects.

We also go over dietary and non-dietary interventions that are also being investigated as CRMs.

2. The natural metformin and rapamycin mimetics with anti-aging effects.

3. The effect of a high carb and processed sugar diet on fat storage and weight gain.

4. Food myths about dairy, salt and steak.

5. Vitamins that may help treat Huntington's Disease.

Implementing scientifically-driven lifestyle habits can help maintain optimal health all throughout the lifespan. It could be as simple as reducing sugar consumption or something more advanced as using special equipment to practice breathing techniques.

If performed daily, these little changes can significantly impact our health, energy levels and overall wellbeing.

Here are some ways we can biohack longevity to feel healthy and happy regardless of age.
