- Fasting inhibits mTOR and activates AMPK and the Sirtuins.
- Sugar spikes glucose. Glucose shut down sirtuins and AMPK.
- We should avoid high protein diets (specially red meat) for longevity.
- Exercise, Heat, Cold & Other Stressors are “Adversity Mimetics” - we want to trick the body into thinking it’s under threat of survival.
- Weight training maintains hormone levels, the ability to walk well and to have good posture, and also makes you look better, which can boost your confidence and reduce anxiety and stress.
