New to Forum and the Longevity Concept
Posted: Tue Nov 23, 2021 2:56 pm
As the title says, I am just getting to this idea of living longer. Call it a mid-life crisis or the realization of "age" after seeing how much my grandfather slowed up when I visited him for the first time in a couple of years. But whatever triggered it, last month I started going deep-dive into the idea of longevity all because of a podcast with Sergey Young, that resulted in reading his book, then 5 others, and now I can’t get enough information.
I have had an interest in alternative medicine and biohacking in the past, but this is the first time that it has had a real focus. For the past 4 months I have been doing daily workouts (alternating cardio and full body workout) as part of a training program to get ready for an obstacle course race and have been doing intermittent fasting for a while. I just added NMN and Resveratrol to my daily supplement list. Living in the US and not being diabetic, I don’t have access to metformin.
While my wife (an RN) thinks I am crazy and has no interested in living past 80, my goal is to be able to go out and celebrate 2100 at the age of 122. Having said all that, I am likely to be asking a lot of questions because I want to do all the right stuff to be here and active as long as possible. I also realize right now that I don’t even know what I don’t know, so as I learn new things, it is likely going to trigger additional questions.
