4 HORSEMAN OF DISEASE:

Cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer's.

Here are 5 fixes anyone over 35 should know (& can save your life):

1. Insulin resistance
Problem #1: Insulin resistance

Affects up to 88% of U.S. adults.

High insulin:
– Triggers arterial plaque (heart disease)
– Fuels tumor growth via IGF-1 (cancer)
– Leads to type 2 diabetes
– Starves neurons of energy (Alzheimer’s)

It’s the earliest and most common failure: Image
Fix #1: Reverse insulin resistance

Proven interventions:
• 30+ min of walking daily
• Lower refined carb intake
• Increase fiber and protein
• Berberine
• Fasting
• Strength train 3x/week

You can reverse insulin resistance in months.
Problem #2: Nitric oxide

Nitric oxide (NO) keeps blood vessels open and flexible.

By age 40, levels are down ~50%.

– Increases blood pressure and clot risk (heart disease)
– Reduces oxygen and nutrient delivery to the brain (Alzheimer’s)
– Impairs glucose transport (diabetes)
Image
Fix #2: Boost Nitric Oxide

Clinically supported methods:
• L-citrulline (3–6g/day)
• Nitrate-rich foods (beets, arugula)
• Nasal breathing (activates NO release)
• Avoiding antiseptic mouthwash (kills oral NO-producing bacteria)

Supports vascular and brain health. Image
If you're looking for 100% natural Nitric Oxide production, here's the best one I've found:

It’s the best investment for me at 40👇

Problem #3: Mitochondrial dysfunction

Mitochondria make energy and control cell death.

When they break:
– Heart cells lose energy
– Damaged cells escape apoptosis (cancer)
– Neurons degenerate (Alzheimer’s)

It’s the engine failure behind all 4 Horsemen.
Fix #3: Mitochondrial Support

• Intermediate fasting 14–16 hours/day
• Do HIIT 1–2x/week
• Cold exposure (showers or ice baths)
• Zone 2 cardio (improves mitochondrial density)
• CoQ10, alpha-lipoic acid, creatine

Protect every cell and increase energy. Image
Fix #4: Eat anti-cancer food

These foods contain compounds that turn on your body’s defenses:

• Broccoli sprouts →
• Green tea → EGCG
• Turmeric
• Berries

Food can prevent mutations from becoming malignancies: Image
Image
Fix #5: Control Inflammation

Reduce systemic inflammation through:
• Omega-3 supplementation
• Anti-inflammatory diet (polyphenols, low sugar)
• Gut microbiome support
• Stress reduction (HRV training, grounding, breathwork)

CRP and IL-6 levels can be tracked clinically.
The 4 horsemen of disease aren’t vague “risks.”

They’re measurable breakdowns that happen quietly for decades as we age.

But now we know:
• They’re visible early
• They’re driven by lifestyle
• And most of them are preventable (some even reversible...)

Your thyroid controls your entire life.

If it isn't working, it damages your health, energy, and metabolism.

But 2 out of 3 people with thyroid issues are not aware.

Here are the signs your thyroid isn't working (and how to fix it): Image
What is your thyroid?

It’s a small butterfly-shaped gland in your neck.

But it’s the master switch of your metabolism.

It runs your:
• Body temp
• Weight
• Energy
• Digestion
• Mood
• Fertility

If it's off, everything else suffers
How it works:

Your brain sends a signal: TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone)

Your thyroid makes two hormones:
• T4 (inactive)
• T3 (the one that actually gives you energy)

T4 gets converted into T3 in your liver & gut.

If that conversion fails, you feel like hell.

Harvard scientists just cracked the science to regrow hair.

By 35, 2 in 3 men experience hair loss (regardless of genetics).

Here are 7 ways to prevent hair loss and even regrow your hair:

1. Your follicles are not dead when you lose hair. Image
Harvard’s 2021 study proved this.

They found that balding scalps still have hair follicle stem cells.

They don’t disappear.
They go inactive.

Hair grows when stimulated, nourished, and oxygenated. Image
2. Scalp massage (5–10 min/day)

Gentle daily massage increases blood flow, delivers oxygen, and removes tension from the scalp.

A 2016 study showed that massage led to thicker hair after 24 weeks.

Add nourishing oil (rosemary, pumpkin seed, or peppermint) for extra benefit.

Most people feel like sh*t by 40.

But it’s not aging — it’s your body screaming for help.

If you’ve gained belly fat, low energy, and recover slowly...

Here are 4 dotor approved ways to fix age issues & extend your lifespan: 👇

1. Grip strength
Sarcopenia (which is a fancy way of saying age-related muscle loss) raises mortality risk.

Grip strength and muscle loss are proven to be associated with shorter lifespan.

Muscle is a reservoir for glucose, a shield against frailty, and one of the strongest predictors of survival.
Fix: Train to preserve muscle (not build muscle)

Strength train 2–4×/week (full body is best)
Eat 1.2–1.6 g protein/kg daily
Sleep 7-9 hours a day

Muscle isn’t just for athletes or aesthetics; it's actually not optional to extend your lifespan.

Nitric Oxide is the key to longevity.

Dr. Nathan's 19-year research proved it speeds recovery, slows aging, and softens your arteries.

But your body stops producing it as you age (50% of it by 40)

Here's what it is, how to get enough, and why discovering it won a Nobel prize:
Nitric oxide (NO) is a gas your body makes to signal blood vessels to open.

It powers blood flow, oxygen delivery, and cellular repair.

But you start losing it at 30, and by 70, your NO is down 75%.

Losing the ability to repair leads directly to aging and chronic diseases. Image
Image
Dr. Nathan Bryan calls Nitric Oxide “The Molecule of Life.”

- NO mobilizes stem cells (repair system)
- Activates telomerase (longevity enzyme)
- Enhances mitochondria (your energy factory)

It’s the only molecule that supports all 3 pillars of longevity:

Heart attacks can be prevented.

Dr. Aseem Malhotra proved heart attacks are caused by your habits, food, and the lies you’ve been told.

Here’s the lies he debunked (& fixes to protect your heart):

Lie: High cholesterol is the cause
Heart disease is widely misunderstood.

It’s not just about aging or high cholesterol.

It’s plaque silently building inside your arteries like a pimple beneath the surface.

When it bursts, blood flow is blocked and a heart attack strikes.
Heart disease is the #1 killer on the planet.

• In the UK, 1 in 8 men and 1 in 14 women die from it
• In the US, nearly 50% of adults have it

It kills more people than all cancers combined.

They created a disease overnight to sell you pills.

In 2017, medical authorities lowered "normal" blood pressure from 140/90 to 130/80.

Suddenly, 31 million healthy Americans became "sick."

Here’s the real cause of this symptom, and easy ways to fix it:
1. Resistant Hypertension

Some people don’t respond to standard treatment for high blood pressure.

Their numbers stay high no matter what.

This is resistant hypertension.

And it leaves arteries vulnerable despite “being on meds.”
2. Arteries strain

You don’t feel it happening.

Your heart pumps harder, but each pump causes more damage.

Every beat slams against your artery walls, and over time, they stiffen, scar, and narrow.

But one day it shows up as a heart attack, stroke, or kidney failure.
