The year was 2012, and I was determined to end my aging and I mean beat it back with a stick. At the start of the year, I was chronologically 31.

I was overweight, rejected, and very old looking. Food allergies and intolerances were aging me rapidly. My blood tests still came out fine most of the time, but my ancient Greek ancestors were known as immort...

Vitamin D Supplementation vs. Catching Some Rays At first blush, it may seem like those Vitamin D peddlers out there are trying to get your money by selling you stuff that you don’t really need and can get for free. Just ask a question of a multibillion dollar multinational company like NESTLE “excuse me, but who the hell buys stuff that they can get for free, like water?” and see what in the way of Pow...

I've been using a bunch of supplements and improvised materials that just haven't been done yet and have been getting great results. Then two nights ago I add a half dose of an adjuvant to my existing regimen that can slowly remove glucosepane, or so it seems. I have it on good authority that this mechanism will be effective. The new ingredient is working...

Could policy revisions lead to a healthier nation?

So, I was reading this over at the FDA and it dawned on me that these safety side effects were only likely to occur in people who are aged. In young people, it would very likely not be an issue. So here's the bigger issue: 
If you take these away from young people or dissuade them from using them altogether, the young people will lose the opportunit...

Life continues! 
Although in many ways I'm quite healthy (knock on wood), and looking at Facebook pictures of my classmates from high school and college, I find they often look a decade plus older than I am--in some ways too being a health nut might not be ultimately so healthy. It could be a way of postponing my life. Instead of seizing the day, I j...

So planet fitness is apparently helping u...

NR - Nicotinamide Riboside NR activates SIRT2 ? (hmm not sure, I got to re-listen again)
NR one of 3 precursors to NAD
Out of the 3 precursors NR takes the least amount of ATP to make NAD, so if you have low ATP. in your system.. not lots of NAD
Bad hearts have low ATP, so NR is preferable for NAD Sirtuins require NAD NMN not considered a p...

Just saw a thirty-something black guy with two black eyes. He was driving a maroon Mercury Grand Marquis with chrome edging, from the old days. There was a sign in the back window of the car saying, "Trump: Make America Great Again." He wore a baseball cap and had a lot of stuff/clothes in the car. Maybe his "black eyes" were anti-glare markings. Either w...

So I notice an improvement in my skin condition when I shave the body hair that stays in remit until the hair starts popping through the surface again. Shaving makes my face itch less, and the longer the hair grows, the itchier it gets.
