Can You Really Reverse Aging? The Science of Longevity
Aging Isn’t Inevitable – It’s a Process You Can Influence
We’ve been taught that aging is inevitable, but new research in longevity science and biohacking proves otherwise. The key? Protecting your cells, optimising mitochondria, and reducing inflammation.
The Science of Longevity – Key Strategies for Reversing Aging:
1. Cellular Repair with Fasting & Autophagy
Intermittent fasting triggers autophagy, your body’s process of removing damaged cells and regenerating new ones.
Try This: Start with a 12-14 hour overnight fast, and gradually extend based on your body’s response.
2. Mitochondrial Health & Energy Optimization
Your mitochondria (the powerhouses of your cells) decline with age, leading to fatigue and slower metabolism.
Try This: Increase coenzyme Q10, resveratrol, and polyphenol-rich foods to boost cellular energy.
3. Strength Training & Longevity
Muscle is the key to metabolic health, strength, and longevity.
Try This: Incorporate progressive resistance training 3x a week to maintain lean muscle.
4. Cold Therapy & Hormetic Stress
Short-term stress (like cold exposure or sauna therapy) boosts resilience and slows aging.
Try This: Try cold plunges, contrast showers, or cryotherapy to stimulate longevity genes.
