From lifespan to healthspan
Living for a long time with poor health isn't the goal, living long well to our full capacity and happy is what we are all striving for.
Ageing is associated with chronic disease, the result of accumulating damage to molecules that make up the body's cells, if enough of these cells are damaged, they function less well and tissues and organs can deteriorate and health can decline.
What if you could turn back the clock to become three years younger in just eight weeks?
Turning back biological age is ultimately a goal we are looking to accomplish and maybe the best way to reduce the risk of chronic disease.
And you can, really.
Dr. Kara Fitzgerald conducted a groundbreaking study in The Journal of Aging - participants reversed their biological age by over three years in just eight weeks. Profound.
Why I love this is that you can get younger through simple nutrition and lifestyle practices.
The study is the first of its kind to take the concept of epigenetics and apply it to a randomised controlled trial, and it shows that some of the best ways to lengthen health-span are free.
The study link details exactly what to eat and the daily relaxation practice - you can all do this.
The plan is made of eating the following foods daily:
Leafy greens
Cruciferous veg
Colourful veg
Low sugar fruits
Sunflower seeds
Pumpkins seeds
A selection of herbs
Quality protein (specific measured amount)
Even if you don't follow the exact prescription just by including the array of vegetables you are doing a world of good.
Be your younger wiser self.
Dr. Kara Fitzgerald's has also launched a new book with much more guidance - highly recommended, link below.
