“Flamingo Test” Determines Your Longevity

By |2022-08-25T11:22:42-04:00August 25th, 2022|Natural Health|

An international team of researchers believe a new test can reveal a lot about your state of health and your longevity.

Best of all, this test couldn’t be easier. I’ve dubbed it the “flamingo test” because it involves nothing more than standing on one leg like a flamingo.

Here’s what you need to know…

Unlike aerobic fitness and muscle strength and flexibility, balance tends to be reasonably well preserved until people reach their mid to late 50s, when it starts to wane.

For instance, between the ages of 40 and 49 a person can stand on one leg for an average of 42 seconds. […]

Does Time-Restricted Eating Really Extend Life?

By |2022-08-18T11:53:12-04:00August 18th, 2022|Natural Health|

From flies and worms to rodents and primates, numerous studies in laboratory animals have shown that calorie restriction extends lifespan. But translating calorie restriction to people over the long-term is all but impossible.

However, scientists say there’s another approach that can provide much of the benefit of calorie restriction without all the severe restriction.

I’m talking about time-restricted eating. Here’s what you need to know…

Many studies in a variety of lifeforms demonstrate that a considerable reduction in calories while – and this is key – maintaining intake of all necessary nutrients, delays aging and extends lifespan.

Until recently it wasn’t clear if time-restricted […]

What Your Eyes Say About Your Longevity

By |2022-08-04T10:00:29-04:00August 4th, 2022|Natural Health|

When researchers recently investigated how our organs interact as we get older and how they influence our longevity, they got a shock.

Because when they examined the eyes to see how aging slowed down their performance, the researchers discovered that it wasn’t so much the aging of the rest of the body that caused dysfunction in the eyes, but that the eyes themselves were the driving force for aging in the rest of the body!

Here’s the surprising story…

Researchers at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging in Novato, California, performed a laboratory study that was designed to tease out relationships between […]

“Youth Fluid” Reverses Memory Loss

By |2022-07-28T10:15:37-04:00July 28th, 2022|Natural Health|

Horror movies and books have portrayed the harvesting and transplanting of blood and organs from the youthful to the aged as a means of increasing longevity.

Unimaginably, this grisly concept is given some credence by modern science. As a result, one opportunist offered young blood to the wealthy at $8,000 a liter before being shut down by regulators.

Fortunately, the science shows there’s a safer and far less gruesome way to use youthful cells and body fluids to tap into a longer lifespan.

A team at Stanford University has published several studies showing young blood from either mice or humans has a rejuvenating […]

This Simple Ten-Minute Activity That Can Add Decades to Your Life

It’s easy to dismiss the idea that putting one foot in front of the other could be one of the very best ways to avoid an early grave.

Don’t worry, I’m not referring to jogging; merely walking.

It seems too easy an activity to provide major health benefits, yet research keeps mounting to show that’s precisely what it’s capable of.

Walking is a simple activity, accessible by people of all ages, and shown to confer many physical, mental, and social health benefits with minimal adverse effects.

Researchers at the University of Leicester, England, had previously shown that as little as ten minutes of brisk […]

Your Grandma’s Secret to Longevity

By |2022-07-07T10:20:45-04:00July 7th, 2022|Natural Health|

There’s a room in your house that holds the key to longer life expectancy and a healthier old age. And chances are it’s a place where your parents and grandparents spent more time than you do. But researchers now say that for your own well-being you’d be smart to borrow a habit from them and go there more, too.

The room I’m talking about isn’t a home gym. It’s the kitchen…

The latest medical research demonstrates that it’s not how much time you spend in the gym, but how much time you use your kitchen that’s the crucial factor for better health.

In […]

Why Aging Makes You More Generous…

By |2022-06-23T14:13:42-04:00June 23rd, 2022|Natural Health|

When aged 67, the one-time richest man in the world, J. Paul Getty, famously installed a coin-operated pay phone in his mansion for his guests. His miserliness never waned, even with advancing age.

But he’s the exception that proves the rule because as we non-billionaires get older, we become kinder, more caring, more generous and have greater life satisfaction, according to the latest research.

The physical and cognitive effects of aging have been extensively studied but aging also brings about changes in social behavior and emotional responses.

Seniors spend more time volunteering and donate a larger proportion of their income to good causes […]

Your mitochondria are the “batteries” that supply power to your cells, and thereby to your body.

However, as you age your mitochondria can become damaged or dysfunctional.1 Also, the number of mitochondria available to your cells decreases.

Age-related mitochondrial dysfunction is linked to an array of health problems, including cognitive decline, cancer, insulin resistance, macular degeneration and more. But a little-known natural health secret can get to the root of the problem and help your body create healthy, new mitochondria. Here’s what you need to know…

New Discovery for Staying Lean, Fit and Long-Lived

By |2022-06-09T10:26:35-04:00June 9th, 2022|Natural Health|

A new scientific discovery could be a dream come true for the one in three Americans who are chronically overweight or obese. That’s because this discovery burns energy, lowers body fat, boosts muscle mass and strength, increases physical activity levels, and reduces inflammation—according to animal studies.

It’s called BAM15, and while the research is still in the early stages, scientists say it works by targeting a process called mitochondrial uncoupling.

Mitochondrial uncoupling is part of the body’s energy creation process. Ordinarily, two distinct processes are coupled together to create energy in the mitochondria—the power plants— of cells. By uncoupling these processes, the […]
