The ancient Romans, Greek, and Chinese ate these plants for centuries.

Modern Americans call them "weeds" and spray them with chemicals.

After looking around I found 8 common garden weeds that contain more nutrients than kale, spinach, and broccoli:

1. Dandelion Greens Dandelion greens have more vitamin A per gram than Kale.

They also contain bitter compounds that help digestion and are extremely high in vitamin K.

Widely used in ancient medicine.

NICOTINE is the best-kept secret in modern medicine.

It boosts attention, memory, and cognitive performance––without smoking.

It might be the reason why top CEOs work 120-hour weeks without burning out.

Here's the science behind it (& how to get the benefits safely): 🧵
Most people only know nicotine as the addictive chemical in cigarettes.

But nicotine itself doesn't cause cancer or lung disease (that comes from the tar and thousands of chemicals in tobacco smoke).

When used alone, it actually works as a brain booster.

Here's how it works:

Building muscle improves your health at the cellular level and extends lifespan.

Here's how:

Do you drink coffee first thing in the morning?

There's a good chance you're disrupting your natural energy cycle.

Also known as "Cortisol Disruption".

It leads to afternoon crashes, poor focus, and caffeine dependency.

Here’s how to fix it: 🧵
Most people wake up, stumble to the kitchen, and pour a cup of coffee—believing it's the best way to jumpstart their day.

It feels right.

You're tired, you need energy, so you reach for caffeine.

But here's the problem:

Hard fact:

Almost 50% of Americans are low on Magnesium.

And it’s quietly wrecking their sleep, stress response, and blood sugar.

Here's what happens to each of these when you don't get enough:

These are the most dangerous warriors on Earth.

They can fall asleep anytime—even in the middle of combat or sitting upright.

Their secret? A 2-minute mental technique from WW2 that triggers REM sleep on command.

Here’s how the Navy SEALs hack their brains for instant deep sleep (try this tonight): About 1 in 3 Americans struggle with insomnia symptoms.

Most turn to sleep pills, apps, or melatonin.

But these create dependency and don't actually solve the problem.

Workouts don't just build muscle.

They prevent dementia.

Scientists found that specific movements can regenerate neurons and protect brain cells from cognitive decline.

Here are 6 exercises that will make you live longer (backed by science): 🧵
Our muscles start declining at age 30.

And this isn't just about looking good––studies link muscle loss to cognitive decline & memory problems.

In essence: The weaker our muscles get, the faster our brain ages.

Here's why:

Everyone thinks cardio is the best way to lose weight.

But this is a lie.

Here are 5 exercises to burn fat quicker (and build muscle at the same time): 🧵 Recent studies show some interesting findings:

Activities like running, biking, and swimming help your heart.

But they don't work as well for losing weight.

He's the most decorated swimmer in history.

28 Olympic Medals.

A system used for 15 years that transformed a hyperactive kid into the greatest athlete in Olympic history.

Here's the unorthodox practices that won 23 Gold Medals: 🧵
The world watched in awe as Phelps did the impossible.

Not just winning, but dominating every single race.

• Breaking world records while swimming blind.
• Crushing competitors by entire body lengths.
• Making the impossible look effortless.

The system so demanding, it would break most Olympic athletes.

At 57, Kazuyoshi Miura is the oldest active player in history

He just signed another contract.

He'll play until he's 80.

What he's doing to defy aging will completely change how you think about what is possible for you:
In 1986, a young Japanese player landed in Brazil with a dream.

He couldn't speak Portuguese. Had no connections. Just raw determination.

That player was Kazuyoshi Miura, and he was about to embark on a journey that would rewrite sports history:

This is Tom Cruise.

He's 62 and still scaling buildings, jumping out of planes, and pulling off the craziest stunts in Hollywood.

His secret? An age-defying fitness regime that keeps him young.

Let's break it down: 🧵
Most actors use stunt doubles for dangerous scenes.

Not Tom Cruise.

At an age when most are planning retirement, he's hanging off planes, performing HALO jumps, and scaling the world's tallest building.

Here's what's fascinating about his approach:

Then check out Bruce Lee's insane training routines.

Here are his 7 principles that made him unbeatable and redefined martial arts forever.

The ultimate guide to superhuman strength (bookmark this): 🧵
Most people train traditionally.

They isolate muscles and focus only on physical training.

But Bruce Lee discovered a better way.

One that made him faster, more fluid, and more powerful.

Let's break down the principles that revolutionized his training:

At 122 years old, she became the oldest documented human in history.

At 85, she started a hobby in combat sports.

Scientists studied her case for decades.

This is Jeanne Calment's blueprint for extending life: 🧵
Jeanne Calment was born in 1875, when the average person didn't live past 45, passing away in 1997.

She was around when the Eiffel tower was being built and in a time where Wi-Fi existed.

But what she did at 85 would reshape our understanding of aging:

This is Dr. Andrew Huberman.

After 12 years at Stanford, he discovered why motivation and caffeine are myths.

You don't need pre-workouts or 'beast mode' music.

Here's his method for doubling endurance & strength without losing gains: Most people think peak performance comes from:

• Pre-workout supplements
• Pushing through pain
• Motivational videos

But after decades of research at Stanford, Dr. Huberman discovered why this approach fails:

Fitness trends from the good ol days 🧵

1. Jazzercise (1980s)

Neon leggings, leg warmers, and music. 2. Tae Bo (1990s)

A punchy combo of taekwondo and boxing.

This is Wesley Okerson.

He trained Tom Cruise and Gerard Butler into action-hero form with his 'Low Impact Training' style.

Now, he’s using the same method to get Jeff Bezos in the best shape of his life at 60.

Here’s how it works:
Before training Bezos, Okerson was already a legend.

He transformed Tom Cruise and Gerard Butler.

But his biggest challenge emerged when he started working with aging clients who wanted results without destroying their bodies.

Here's what he discovered:

At 122 years old, she became the oldest documented human in history.

At 85, when most people her age stayed at home, she started combat sports.

Scientists studied her case for decades, desperate to understand how.

Dr. Herman Pontzer is an anthropologist & metabolism researcher.

For one of his studies, he worked with hunter-gatherers––a Tanzanian tribe known for walking 10+ miles/day.

What he discovered completely changed our understanding of human metabolism.
