Episode notes
Fundamentals Trump Trends
- The fundamentals of longevity are whole foods, good sleep, connection, and mobility.
- Mastering those gets you about 85% of the way to long-term health.
Start With A Targeted Blood Panel
- Get a basic blood panel that includes full hormones, glycemic control (glucose, HbA1c, insulin), and nutrient checks for D3, DHEA and B12.
- Use results to target deficiencies rather than blind supplementation.
Move First To Beat Morning Tiredness
- If you wake tired, move: light exercise and sunlight quickly increase oxygen delivery and alertness.
- Increase morning oxygenation with activity rather than defaulting to more sleep.
