In this episode of the Over 40 Fitness Hacks podcast, host Brad interviews Dr. Carl Giordano to discuss the current state of research on longevity and what individuals can do to increase their lifespan. They cover three main categories: diet, exercise, and signal molecules.
Regarding diet, Dr. Giordano explains that the Mediterranean diet, which is low in protein and high in complex carbohydrates, has been associated with improved health span and longevity. He emphasizes the importance of complex carbohydrates that break down slowly in the body, avoiding glucose spikes caused by simple carbohydrates.
Fasting is also discussed as a beneficial practice that stimulates autophagy. Intermittent fasting can have positive effects on various cells in the body, while longer fasting periods, such as 24 hours or more, are needed for deep brain autophagy.
Moving on to exercise, Dr. Giordano explains that there are four categories to focus on: strength training, aerobic conditioning, balance and function, and stretching. It is essential to engage in all of these categories throughout life, as muscle mass, strength, balance, and coordination naturally decline with age.
Overall, the conversation provides insights into the importance of diet, fasting, and exercise in promoting longevity and highlights the cellular mechanisms involved in these practices. The discussion encourages individuals, especially those over 40, to adopt a holistic approach to their health and well-being by considering the three categories discussed and making informed choices based on scientific evidence.
