How To Look 10+ Years Younger Than Your Current Age

*THREAD*
Factor #1) Vitamins & Hydration

This is going to be one of the biggest factors for keeping your skin looking healthy and youthful, assuming you don't smoke.

If you do, STOP smoking.

If not, focus on vitamin C, D, E & K, and get at least 2L of water per day.

More...
Vitamin C is particularly powerful when it comes to reducing the appearance of dryness, wrinkles, and damaged skin.

Shoot for 1,000mg per day, every day.

Next up:
Factor #2) Blood Flow

This one 'stacks' on top of the first one.

Not only do you need the sufficient amount of vitamins, but you also need the blood flow to make best use of these.

Enhanced blood flow is also going to eliminate any waste products from your skin too.

Try this:
30 minutes of intense cardio (75-80% of MHR), every other day.

The TYPE of cardio doesn't matter, it's the blood flow that does.

Next up:
Factor #3) Cortisol

This is probably the biggest one, and I forecast this getting way worse in the future, with economic instability, political insanity etc. etc.

But you have to control it.

CHRONIC excess cortisol will ruin your brain, and jack up your inflammation levels.
Cortisol literally stresses the body and degrades virtually all functions (and accelerates the aging process):

So HOW TO DEAL WITH IT??
- Physical Rest & Recovery
- Psychological Rest/Meditation
- Taking Time Off

I talk about all of the specific tactics inside the latest newsletter, coming to IFFT in 6 DAYS:

(It's specifically designed to help you look more youthful).

Next factor:
Factor #4) Your Skincare Products

I left this until last, as I don't believe that this is going to be helpful if you're:

- Eating sugar
- Smoking like a chimney
- Never doing cardio
- Vitamin C deficient

But here's some key things you can look at:
A moisturizer is going to 'stack' on top of a high vitamin C diet with lots of cardio.

An eye cream will help to reduce dark circles and eye wrinkles.

Something like accutane will help to eliminate spots (but this requires blood test first and, no alcohol while you take it)
But there are your 4 main factors outside of surgery.

If you take away anything from this, it's that NUTRIENTS are key.

This is the reason your skin looks like crap after boozing or eating junk food - these things rob you of essential nutrients.

Finally:
If you want the entire guide for looking 10+ Years Younger Than You Currently Do, it's going out in 6 DAYS never to be seen again.

It's far more comprehensive than this thread.

9 Foods You Must Avoid If You Want To Actually Get Lean

*THREAD*
Here's the thing.

Some of these foods do actually come with a lot of health benefits.

They're 'healthy'.

But they're not going to help you to get to 10% body fat, because:

They're too CALORIE-DENSE.

Look out for these:
1. Nuts

Nuts are a classic example of something that technically has healthy fats, but in reality they're WAY too easy to overdo.

Salted or not.

Getting the balance even slightly off with these, is enough to knock you out of a calorie deficit.

6 Powerful Reasons To Stop Eating Breakfast(!)

It's not just fat loss. We're talking overall health, wealth & mindset benefits.

*THREAD* 👇
1. EASY CALORIE DEFICIT

The fastest way to wasting 600+ calories from your 'calorie budget' (yes, there's limited calories you can eat no matter what you eat), is to eat breakfast.

Your willpower is already high in the morning.

Save the calories for when you NEED them (later).
2. INCREASED MORNING PRODUCTIVITY

As I said, willpower is highest in the AM (usually), which is why so many productivity gurus tell you to do the hardest task first.

They're not wrong.

And without your breakfast sitting in your stomach, you're going to have more energy.

How To Stay Disciplined During A Crisis

*THREAD*
So I received about 100 emails last night (from my email list), detailing various fitness problems/obstacles to achieving their goals.

And there was one common theme:

Lack of discipline.

Discipline is a practise.

A skill.

More:
It's KNOWING that performing the correct actions on a consistent basis, will lead to the fitness life of your dreams.

At least eventually.

It's KNOWING that caving into your impulses will only lead to disappointment.

Discipline = Overpowering your internal demons.

Inflammation Is At THE Root Of All Disease.

Inflammation = Death.

It's your job to keep inflammation down.

I'll show you how.

Here's a list of anti-inflammatory foods.

*THREAD*
LEAFY GREENS.

This is #1.

Broccoli, kale, and other greens are the number one 'cleanser' to add into your IF meals.

They're incredibly micronutrient-dense and protective against illnesses.
FATTY FISH

Salmon, sardines, mackerel and anything that's omega 3 heavy, is going to have a massive impact on your inflammation levels.

Critical for both heart health and testosterone too.
