4 supplements I'm getting my aging parents to take:

1. Creatine
2. Omega 3's
3. Vitamin D3 + K2
4. Magnesium glycinate

Here's why...
1. Creatine

Creatine isn’t just for gym bros, it’s for longevity.

It helps preserve muscle and strength, which decline 3–8% every decade after 30.

It also boosts brain energy and may protect against depression and cognitive decline.
2. Omega 3’s

Fish oil is brain and heart insurance.

EPA + DHA lower inflammation, improve blood flow, support memory, and protect against heart disease.

Most older adults don’t get enough through diet and when paired with the next supplement has been shown to reduce biological aging.

5 simple ways to test how long you'll live:
Living longer is not just about adding years to your life. It's about reducing risk.

Aside from doing bloodwork or a VO2 max test, there are 5 simple tests you can do at home to assess your risk for mortality.

Do these and see how you score:
Passive bar hangs

This tests upper body strength & grip strength, which is an indicator of longevity.

You just hang from a bar for as long as you can.

60 seconds or higher is advanced. 40 seconds is a pass. 30 seconds or less needs work.

If I had to go from 30% to 15% body fat in 4 months or less, here's EXACTLY what I'd do:
1. Know your numbers.

Measure waist, chest, hips weekly.
Track weight daily (use 7-day averages).
Log your food, workouts, and progress consistently.

Numbers are your GPS. They tell you what’s working so you can repeat it.
Optional but powerful: blood work + DEXA.

Glucose, triglycerides, HDL, A1C, cholesterol, blood pressure.

These let you separate the signal from the noise by showing you what’s really happening inside.

I'm 45.

Here are massive red flags I wish I knew in my 20's:
1. Having a big belly. It's a sign of high levels of visceral fat. It wrecks hormones and reduces blood flow to the brain, making you dumber.

2. Sleeping less than 6 hours a day. Long-term sleep deprivation leads to fat gain, lower cognitive function, and eventual disease.

3. Thinking that anything in your 20s is "too late". This belief will stop you from doing some cool shit.
4. Ignoring your environment. Your friends, the people you follow on social media, and anything you have in your life influence your mindset.

5. Bleeding gums. Sign of gum disease. Long-term use can lead to horrible dental health and an increased risk of heart disease, inflammation, and even cognitive decline.

French people eat bread, cheese, wine, and pastries.

Despite this, they have one of the lowest obesity rates in the Western world.

Here are 9 reasons why French people are staying slim while everyone else is getting fat: Image
1. Cultural portion control

In France, “small” is normal.

Coffee cups are tiny, sandwiches aren’t a footlong, and meals aren’t supersized.

Smaller portions mean fewer calories without feeling deprived. Image
2. Structured meal times

The French eat 3 proper meals a day:

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Snacking is rare and discouraged.

Eating at this rhythm stabilizes appetite and prevents constant grazing. Image

I'm 45.

But I look and feel 35.

Here are 5 foods I’m eating to look younger and feel like I’m 10 years younger: Image
Food #1 - Collagen Boosters

Eggs, grapefruit, pumpkin seeds, and bone broth.

Collagen is “Nature’s Botox.” It keeps skin firm, joints flexible, and bones strong.

After 30, your body makes less. These foods help bring the bounce back.
Food #2 - Antioxidant Powerhouses

Swiss chard, pomegranates, blueberries, grapes.

Free radicals are like tiny burglars that damage your cells.

Antioxidants act like security guards—protecting skin, preventing wrinkles, and slowing aging.
