6. Instant mashed potatoes.

Banned in the UK and Japan.

Any US brand that uses Butylated hydroxyanisole as an additive (like Hungry Jacks).

5. Poptarts.

Banned in Austria & Norway.

Due to them containing Yellow 5, Yellow 6, & Red 40.

4. Rice Krispies.

Banned in the EU & Japan.

Drinking 8 glasses of water daily is a scam.

By drinking plain water, you’re draining electrolytes, weakening your mitochondria & killing your cellular energy.

Here’s the only science-backed hydration protocol you need (& why everyone’s doing it wrong):

1. Mineral Balance

Your cells need minerals to actually absorb water, because without them, you're just flushing out nutrients and making things worse.

Add 1/4 teaspoon of high-quality sea salt per 32 oz of water (+ space your water intake throughout the day).

2. Cellular Hydration

Your body is like a battery – it needs minerals for conductivity, and without proper cellular hydration, all systems fail.

How to get it: 1 oz of water per pound of body weight daily, stop drinking 2 hours before bed, and add minerals to every glass to maintain consistent intake.

This Soviet scientist reversed human aging.

He developed a peptide protocol that reprograms old cells to function like new, repairs immunity, and slows DNA aging.

Here’s how it works (& why the data shocked researchers):🧵

Vladimir Khavinson was a Soviet military physician (1970s) tasked with solving radiation damage in Cold War forces.

While studying tissue damage, he discovered tiny peptides that could reprogram cells to act young again.

But these weren’t ordinary peptides...

Because most peptides stay outside the cell, only sending signals that trigger chain reactions...

These are called bioregulators.

They go inside the cell nucleus, interact with DNA, and reset your genetic code, flipping it from “old” to “young.”

I’m 43 and planning to live until 125.

Not just survive, but remain fully functional with muscle, memory, and energy.

Here’s the exact protocol I follow, based on science (read this to add 8–10 years to your lifespan):🧵

Biohack 1. Testing

I run extensive labs 2x per year:
• 124 biomarkers
• Mold & toxicity panels
• DNA analysis
• Stool testing
• Hormone mapping
• Biological age assessment

(I look for optimal ranges--because standard medical ranges are built on sick populations):

Biohack 2. Continuous Monitoring

Wearables track heart rate variability, sleep quality, recovery metrics daily.

Monthly body composition via InBody or DEXA scans.

Your body's data tells you exactly what needs optimization, eliminating guesswork from longevity protocols:

Your mitochondria predict your death date.

10,000+ studies confirm that dysfunction triggers cancer, heart failure, and 300+ other diseases.

Here’s the protocol to restore your mitochondria at any age (based on science):🧵

Let’s start with the signs your mitochondria are dying:

1. Constant fatigue (especially 3pm crashes)
2. Waking up tired despite 8+ hours of sleep
3. Brain fog and poor mental clarity
4. Feeling cold all the time
5. Slow recovery from exercise

If this sounds like you, keep reading...

Mitochondria are organelles inside every cell that convert food and oxygen into ATP, your cellular energy currency, through the *Krebs cycle.

(*A chain of reactions that extracts energy from carbs, fats, and proteins).

Without them, you literally can’t breathe, move, or think:

I saved my brother’s life.

My mom thought we were losing him, as he was obese, had chest pains & sleep apnea.

So I moved to his city & helped him drop 52 lbs in 90 days.

Here’s exactly how we did it (copy this):🧵

The first and most important thing you need to focus on to lose weight?

Your diet.

The meal plan we used:
⤑ 3 meals a day, spaced 5 hours apart.

PS. We ate whole foods, stayed in a deficit & never mixed fats with carbs:

For lunch, we kept it simple:

• Lean protein (salmon, chicken +)
• Veggies (broccoli, sweet potato, etc.)
• Healthy fats (avocado, eggs, etc.)

Dinner looked like this:
• Lean meats
• More veggies
• Clean carbs (fruit, sweet potato, etc.)

The goal was fat loss without starving or burning out (something all of you need to copy):

You eat half a pound of plastic every year.

These plastics clog your arteries (4.5x heart attack risk), shrink your testicles & triple your cancer risk… all as we speak.

You can’t detox them, but here’s how to cut intake & damage (science-backed):🧵

1. Cut white rice (loaded with plastic).

Before we expose the hidden sources, understand this...

Microplastics have been found in 20+ human organs, even in unborn babies (fueling health issues before life begins).

The damage ranges from cancer to Alzheimer’s to 30+ deadly diseases (watch the video below, you’ll be shocked):

What’s even scarier is how they move through your body, corrupting DNA while wrecking your organs...

The process is called mitosis.

When your cells divide, the new ones carry plastic inside them too (here’s how it works):
