Why would you consider taking the time to “reset” your health?

Why would you consider taking the time to “reset” your health?

Nutrition is a key building block to a healthy life.

Maybe you feel fine. Feel good. Maybe even great! Good to hear. Everyone deserves that.

Join our upcoming next Cleanse Class with Coaching!

How important is our health? It might be the single most valuable thing we have. And the one thing that we have control over. Family, friends, security – they are also extremely important, but you cannot enjoy them unless you are in good health, right?

But for many of us we know we could:

  • Feel healthier
  • More energized
  • More focused
  • And be ready for anything!

What is a “reset” anyhow?

A reset is just what it sounds like – taking the time to change up your system to start living healthier. A good way is to start is with a “cleanse”.

What is a “cleanse” anyway?

Funny true story: I was asking my doctor about her advice on cleanses. She immediately thought of a colon cleanse. Yikes! So I had to explain in a bit more detail.

Basically, it is taking some time away from your current diet and giving your system a chance to “reset”. The typical format is to limit your diet to fruits and vegetables for a few days. Is it easy? Probably not. Is it worth it? Probably so.

With our busy schedules this can be a difficult thing to do. But giving yourself a chance to improve your health is probably worth the effort, right?

But a “cleanse” is only the first step. It can be the change you need to start eating a healthier diet.

Maybe you want to lose some weight. Have more energy. Improve your focus. You will want to use this opportunity to get on the right track with your health!

And let’s face it, if you just go back to fast food after the “cleanse”, you are going to be missing out on the chance to make a real difference in your life.

Your best chance for real success in “resetting” your health is to continue your change with a proven program that has helped others do just the same.

Join Our Next Cleanse Coaching Class

Starting each week we will be begin our next 7-day Cleanse Class with free coaching. Don’t fear going it alone. Join us to get daily reminders and a place to talk to others. And get your friends to come along too!

Sign up here and I will be emailing you all of the details.

It is a complete program with a 7-day “cleanse” and then a follow up program of healthy nutrition.

I work with a company that has just launched a 30-day challenge program. I know their products work because I have used their program to lose over 40 lbs. myself!

More Information

If you would like to know more – send me a message and we can talk. I always like connecting. After all this is “social” media, right?

Sound like something you are up for?

It is never too early or late in life to make a difference
in your health. One of my favorite sayings is: “The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second-best time is right now.” 

P.S. And the best part is that the 30-day challenge program is guaranteed – if you don’t feel a difference in 30 days you can get all your money back. Even after completing the program.

Self-Reported Data From Several Hundred Rapamycin Self-Experimenters

Rapamycin is arguably the best of the many calorie restriction mimetic small molecules, treatments that can provoke some of the sweeping, favorable metabolic and cellular changes produced by a reduction in calorie intake. The data showing a modest slowing of aging in mice with rapamycin treatment is robust and well replicated, albeit only producing a 5-10% extension of life span, much less than has been shown to be possible via forms of calorie restriction.

Could Exploration be the Purpose of Life?

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”  ~Mark Twain

In 2022, I wanted to quit my job and didn’t know why. I was about to embark on a six-week trip to a country I’d always wanted to visit—New Zealand—to work in sports TV production. I loved the people I worked with, the company I worked for, and the buzz I got from live TV. Still, it wasn’t enough. I needed to explore these feelings further.

Reviewing mTOR Inhibition as a Pharmacological Strategy to Modestly Slow Aging

Source https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2023/05/reviewing-mtor-inhibition-as-a-pharmacological-strategy-to-modestly-slow-aging/

It is arguably the case that we should look at small molecule mTOR inhibitors, such as rapamycin and its descendant rapalog compounds, as the most effective of the calorie restriction mimetic approaches developed to date. The practice of calorie restriction, eating as much as 40% fewer calories while still obtaining optimal levels of micronutrients, produces sweeping changes to metabolism.

Sufficient Physical Activity Correlates With a Halving of the Risk of Influenza Mortality

Source https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2023/05/sufficient-physical-activity-correlates-with-a-halving-of-the-risk-of-influenza-mortality/

Analysis of a large epidemiological database here shows that sufficient exercise correlates with a halving of the risk of mortality due to influenza. Like many other studies, it also shows that too much exercise may be harmful, actually increasing the risk of mortality. While correlation does not imply causation, there is plenty of evidence for physical fitness and physical activity to reduce impacts of aging related to immune function. Alternative explanations revolve around the tendency of more robust individuals to conduct more exercise, while also tending to be more resilient independently of the effects of exercise.

Triglyceride Depletion Mimics Calorie Restriction in Old Muscles

Source https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2023/05/triglyceride-depletion-mimics-calorie-restriction-in-old-muscles/

Researchers here observe that triglyceride depletion in very aged muscles produces benefits, looking much like a form of calorie restriction that improves cell metabolism. This work was carried out in killifish, a highly regenerative species, so it remains to be seen as to whether a similar process operates in mammals, or whether it is in any way interesting or novel as a basis for therapy. Finding modest benefits in very late life is a poor alternative to focusing instead on methods of rejuvenation.

Exercise Reduces the Risk of Parkinson's Disease

Maintaining physical fitness remains one of the most proven approaches to modestly slow the progression of aging. The large study noted here provides an example of the long-term benefits of exercise. The scientists observe a reduction in Parkinson’s disease incidence in more active individuals. This is a pattern observed in near all age-related conditions, a good argument for putting in the time and effort needed to remain physically fit and active as one moves into later life.

The study included 95,354 female participants, mostly teachers, with an average age of 49 who did not have Parkinson’s disease at the start of the study. Researchers followed participants for three decades during which 1,074 participants developed Parkinson’s disease. Over the cou…

Long Term Exercise Improves Neurogenesis and Memory Function in Mice

Exercise is demonstrated to improve memory function, both immediately in the short-term, and over the long term of regular exercise and improved physical fitness. Exercise is also known to improve measures of neurogenesis, the creation of new neurons and integration into existing neural networks in the brain. This process is essential to learning and memory.

Hunger Extends Life in Flies Independently of Calorie Intake

Source https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2023/05/hunger-extends-life-in-flies-independently-of-calorie-intake/

Calorie restriction is the practice of eating fewer calories while still obtaining an optimal intake of micronutrients. In recent years work in flies has expanded the understanding of how perception of food and regulation of hunger interacts with the health benefits and slowed aging that result from calorie restriction. Allowing flies to scent food removes the benefits of a lowered calorie intake, for example.

Here, researchers generate a lineage of flies that can be induced to be constantly hungry, and they find that this produces similar benefits to calorie restriction even while the flies eat more than their unmodified peers. Relatedly, work on various different forms of calorie restriction in mammals suggests that <a href="https…
