They wants you to think wrinkles, joint pain, and memory loss are "inevitable."
But Nobel Prize-winning research proves aging is actually oxidative damage.
Here are 3 antioxidants that can slow your biological clock: 🧵
Every day, your cells face 10,000+ attacks from free radicals.
These unstable molecules punch holes in your cell walls, damage your DNA, and speed up aging.
This "oxidative stress" is why you feel tired, see wrinkles, and face a higher risk of disease...
The scary part?
This damage:
• Causes brain fog and memory problems
• Makes your skin look older than it is
• Weakens your heart muscles
• Increases cancer risk by 38%
And most people don't know it's happening until it's too late.
Antioxidant #1: Vitamin E
Think of it as a shield for your cell walls.
It donates hydrogen atoms to neutralize free radicals before they can damage your cells.
Where to find Vitamin E?
• Almonds (7.3mg per ounce)
• Sunflower seeds (7.4mg per ounce)
• Spinach (3.7mg per cup)
• Avocados (2.1mg each)
The problem? You'd need to eat 2 cups of almonds daily to get enough.
That's 3,400 calories just from nuts.
Antioxidant #2: Beta-Carotene
This orange pigment converts to vitamin A in your body and neutralizes a dangerous type of oxygen called "singlet oxygen."
But there's a catch most doctors won't tell you...
Here's the problem with beta-carotene:
It only works at low oxygen levels.
At high doses (especially in pill form), it can actually INCREASE free radical damage.
Always get it from food, not pills.
Top sources of Beta-Carotene:
• Carrots (1 medium = 8,300 mcg)
• Sweet potatoes (1 cup = 13,120 mcg)
• Kale (1 cup = 6,200 mcg)
• Spinach (1 cup = 5,700 mcg)
Eat these with a little fat to boost absorption by 6.5x.
Antioxidant #3: Astaxanthin
This is the secret weapon most people miss.
It's 6,000x stronger than vitamin C and 550x stronger than vitamin E.
Unlike other antioxidants, it spans the entire cell membrane, protecting it from both sides.
What makes astaxanthin special:
• Stays in your system for 16 hours
• Crosses the blood-brain barrier (protects your brain)
• Doesn't become pro-oxidant at high doses (unlike beta-carotene)
It's why salmon can swim upstream for days without muscle damage.
Where to find Astaxanthin:
• Wild sockeye salmon (4.5mg per 6oz)
• Rainbow trout (1.2mg per 6oz)
• Shrimp (1.3mg per 4oz)
• Krill (24mg per 100g)
Our grandfathers never took creatine pills.
Instead, they got it from:
• 8+ hours of sleep
• Daily physical labor
• Red meat 3-4x per week
• Strong community bonds (lower stress)
Their bodies produced what modern men desperately supplement.
So if you want to:
• Lose 20lbs for summer
• Naturally boosts T and muscle
• While working out 3X/week with no tracking or starving.

Here's what everyone gets backwards:
ACUTE cortisol (from training) = Good
CHRONIC cortisol (from life stress) = Gains killer
