Look Younger, Slow Aging w/ These 5 Overlooked Habits (new bombshell Circadian Rhythm science 🔥)

[@jesmarmendiolaguzman3476]

I also want to remind people that although I follow and trust Mike, it’s good to be mindful and try to implement this type of information. But for me, when Mike is talking about looking back at life… I don’t want to miss out on life because of a strict circadian schedule either. I want to travel the world, I want to grab celebratory drinks with my friends, sometimes life is busy and ya know what I want pizza at 9-10 PM. I believe in living a healthy lifestyle but there has to be a balance because living a healthy lifestyle doesn’t matter if you’re miserable and have absolute no social life. It’s the hard balance we all strive for. I don’t have it down, I’m still working on it myself.

[@ronmorey3475]

I could not have said it better. Perhaps my years of traveling and being in different time zones shaved a few years off of my life, but I wouldn't trade them for less wrinkles and better hair. It's all about moderation and self-control and also knowing when to have a good time and live life. You don't want to live your life like you're training hard to be a really good looking 120 year old. It's not a competition, and besides, not one DAY is guaranteed, let alone years.

I gained a ton of weight by doing what you mentioned: eating pizza, pints of ice cream, drinking sweet tea, etc very late at night (11pm-midnight or so) and staying up even later watching Netflix. It was fun at first but I realized how absolutely miserable I was and how much it had damaged my health :/ Thank the Lord, I’ve lost 70 lbs since last April, and now I’m inspired to work harder on changing my night-owlish ways 😖. Thanks for all the info you provide! I really enjoy your channel!

[@petermiller1565]

If you’re eating pizza, pints of ice cream, and drinking sweet sugary beverages, you are going to gain a ton of weight whether you consume these foods late in the evening or early in the day. I’m not dismissing the impact adherence to our Circadian rhythm has on our health, but let’s not pretend that if you ate those highly processed, hyper caloric, low nutrient, hyper palatable foods earlier in the day you wouldn’t meet with the same weight gain. The only exception to this would be in the case of someone who is extremely active in some sort of extreme sport that requires a high calorie diet to fuel their activities, and even then, they may evade weight gain, but will eventually suffer some health consequence from consumption of highly processed junk food. Eat real whole foods that are nutrient dense, with special attention to the macro nutrient profile, eat at the same time every day, and get to bed early. Add to this some sort of exercise program incorporating resistance, mobility, cardiovascular training, and most likely you will remain lean, muscular, and live a long heathy life.

She even gave an approximate timeframe (11PM-Midnight), which suggests to me that she may, in part, believe the time of the day these foods were consumed played more of a role in her weight gain than it likely did. I felt compelled to point this out lest anyone believe that they can mitigate the damages of these foods by eating them earlier in the day.

I did this beginning in 2017. Keto diet and all and lost 120 and my health was considerably better. I was taking 8 medications then none. I had Lupus SLE for 20 years and developed IBS, high bp, high cholesterol, pancytopinia, severe joint pain and disintegration to where I have a replaced hip and both knees replaced. I had inflammation of the lining of my heart and stage 3 kidney disease. I also had pre-diabetes, diverticulitis , colitis and IBS. Everything resolved. In 2020 my husband of 46 years (he was 67) had a health crisis and went to the hospital where he contracted Covid. He was there 2 months and died. It was a terrible time for me and I went off my diet and routine. I’ve gained back 30 pounds and don’t feel as well. I don’t sleep as well. I want to get back to this but I’m having a very hard time making myself do it. Every day I say I’m going back but I don’t. My daughter and her two kids moved in with me.

My chronotype has always been "Late night owl." As a kid and into adulthood I'd usually skip breakfast because I was always running late as I was tired/frequently running late.

Whenever I did my mood was way off, craved all kinds of unhealthy foods, developed T2 diabetes, weight gain, sleep quality was sub-par, couldn't fall asleep when required despite all efforts, etc. I think pushing people into a chronotype that doesn't suit them is immensely harmful and if it can be avoided it should be.

For anyone like me who has a tough time falling asleep, I am prone to insomnia but I have been doing bedtime yin yoga sessions of 15-30 minutes which help to become instantly somnolent (sleepy). Yin is a slow, soft restorative yoga form performed on the floor, it is not the energizing yang yoga that most people recognize. Some yin instructors on KZbin even have sessions you can perform while laying in bed. You have a hard time NOT falling asleep during a yin session. And, of course, follow habits like no media, eating or blue light before bed.

I have read two great books that detail how the idea of 8 hours of unbroken sleep came about. In short, it was promoted by English and German industrialists in the late 18th century to keep the factory owners from suffering the financial loss associated with sleep deprived factory workers falling into their machines and destroying them. At that time labor was cheap and materials were expensive. Each machine was built entirely by hand by woodworkers and blacksmiths and cost enormous amounts, while factory employees were waiting in lines to be hired in a job that worked you 12 to 16 hours a day for pennies a week.

I also experienced weight loss plateau recently doing IF (time restricted feeding) so I shifted from 16/8 to 18/6 and then 20/4 in a matter of 4 weeks, and resumed losing weight (2 lbs in 2 weeks doing 18/6, 3 lbs doing 20/4 in 2 weeks).

Michael, I take notes. I m absorbing of everything you say. I only have two or three medical go to s.... You re one!

[@KeepingOnTheWatch]

I agree with the content in this video and we can choose to do what we want with it. On the other hand it feels to me, especially as I get older, that keeping good health is like walking a 50 kilometre tightrope - it can be done but so very difficult.

Here is what I think of this video: Pure gold. Some of the best time I have ever spent. I look forward to watching this video again, and reading the paper, and putting these things into practice.

My workout place just said my face looks great Fasting 72 hrs. Few months to 80 a Carnivore. I did slide on the asphalt last Tuesday resulting in bumped forehead worked it’s way down two black eyes then check discolored but now mostly gone. I have done different creams and red light therapy at workout. All combined healed me.! I do that taurine in my electrolytes.

[@Welner]

Good tips. Specially us old looking folks. Only 38 but have almost all grey hair in my head. I’ve had grey hair since I was 13 though. So who knows if it’s hereditary or what. Thanks for the video 🤙

[@yogini888]

Great information! I love the Zero app. I’ve been doing the Circadian fast for the past two years which has helped me lose fat and stabilize my weight. I also find that my digestion and sleep are better.

[@HeatherJohnson-c2v]

Great advice! Thank you … but many doctors and holistic health experts emphasize the importance of changing your fasting times and eating windows so the body doesn’t fall into a comfortable pattern and slow metabolism… especially for ketosis and weight loss … it’s difficult to decide what’s most important because the advice goes directly in opposite directions

I heard soul injuries recording sins increase rate of ageing too. I’ve been healing every injury in my soul.

[@brittanytsambasis]

The internal body clock developed from traditional Chinese medicine is a great guiding source to optimize what time of the day to perform different activities that will naturally support your body’s circadian rhythm. I’ve been practicing this for the last few months and have seen improvements in my digestion and my energy levels upon waking and their resilience through the day.

[@frehatipu9187]

Looking forward to listening to this. Last year I started to sleep past 12midnight and swear it aged me rapidly over 5 months.

[@TriggaTreDay]

Thank you for sharing this impactful information. I now can use this to optimize everything that I’ve been working on for the past couple years; exercise, diet, and sleep health. Looking forward to hearing more on this topic.

I’m in bed every night by 8:30 pm and asleep by 9:30 and I do OMAD (carnivore) eat between 12-1pm every day 🥩🥩🥩

[@webstche]

I recall Dr David Sinclair saying in the Huberman lab podcast that NMN and NAD do affect the circadian clock, so he recommends taking them early in the day

[@twobraincells4364]

I would still switch it up every now and then...or expose yourself to more exciting mind/purpose complex activities which have the potential of taking a person to other worlds where perhaps light cycles are different. Just trying to engage your imagination. When it comes to the epigenomic factor....who knows what conditions may be brought about simply through the positioning of our solar system in space. I like being consistent, but the yin and yang has ultimate control and regarding the human mind and it's purpose, I feel like there is a lot of stress, adventure and triumph being left out of the picture which may bring about a more wholesome effect...combining the footprint left behind in service to all of humanity for all time, the purpose of one's life and the pursuit of that purpose allows energy to flow from an unmanifested state..to manifested through the engagement of a youthful sense of exploration...going where no man has gone before and pursuing something that captivates the soul and passion I think will tie together all of these concepts and allow for a wide variety of tactics, procedures and strategies which can be deployed with will and pleasure. Thx.

[@lyra2112]

I loved what you said about light! Could you please do an episode on light and different kinds of light? When you mentioned that you replaced the lightbulbs in your house with good old fashioned incandescent bulbs for a reason, I would like to know more about the why. 💡 I never liked the LED/fluorescent bulbs by instinct and now they are everywhere. I find them unpleasant and harsh in the light color spectrum and quite bright and harsh. Just going out at night is a bombardment of the senses. I still use incandescents at home. I would love to know more about what positive/negative effects light choice this has on us (beyond screens). Thanks! I love this channel.

[@KeepingOnTheWatch]

LED lights with a brightness of 2,800-3,000K are quite nice and warm - comparable to regular incandescent bulbs. They’re easy on the eyes… at least for me.

[@lyra2112]

In regards to kids, my son has been chronically ill for some time with pain, but it has taken a turn for the worse having him couchridden 98% of the time. In order to keep him distracted from his pain and flareups, he needs tv or a device on all the time. IT KILLS ME. Interestingly, he would literally be up until 0130 in the a.m., and still not tired. We had to start giving him melatonin to allow his body to turn off. He needs a double dose at this point😥, and I KNOW it's due to the blue light from the devices. It's the hardest situation to be in. I have ALWAYS limited my kids screentime to 45 min a day even my teens. They dont have phones at this point nor care to. So, what you're saying is completely on point and resonating with my son's life.

[@dianavaldez3371]

Thank you so much for that reminder regarding sleep and keeping a schedule. Loved it!

[@connieclassen2621]

Just get regular or more sleep you say…not as easy as just know that it is good for me. I go to bed at 10 every night, I eat in a 6 hour window and not after 7, but sleeping through the night is mine. I’m up for 2-3 hours every night between 2 am and 5 am. Suggestions!

[@oneofmany7051]

Check out Dr. Stasha Gominak's website. I know Mike has interviewed her more than once on this channel. In short, she says that the B vitamins and Vitamin D need to be at certain levels to get good sleep through the night. There is a little more to it than that, but getting those Vitamin levels checked might be a good place for you to start.

[@truenokill]

Connie you don't sound like you eat sugar but I would look for hidden sugar in foods since it is highly connected to nocturnal micturition (and insulin resistance). Also how about eating dinner at 4pm every day? Then it is six hours b4 bed. I also recommend turmeric probiotic latte at like 6pm which is so relaxing!

[@WA-pd2cc]

@@tessalee6253 I've been through exactly what you're saying here, used to wake up at 2 AM on the dot too sometimes for YEARS. Working on my liver, and creating a positive outlook has greatly helped.

[@Themilkman95]

The number one thing to slow down aging dramatically is lower your stress, I saw really good results in my skin, mood, muscle building when I lowered my stress levels, that was from getting to bed on time everyday, eating proper food and in a surplus of Calories, doing things in the gym of what I enjoy that is bodybuilding, taking rest days as appropriately Honestly you can do the same as well if you just listen to your body.

[@yukoncornelius8669]

might be a good idea to keep anything sending and receiving frequencies out of your bedroom as well.

[@jillom397]

Thank you for the interesting information. I would have preferred a more straightforward delivery with a suggested optimal activities schedule. What is the optimal time for fasting, sleeping, movement, what to eat, etc.? What was Calment’s schedule? Hopefully, I will find some information about how she lived. Upon further research, I found no evidence of a strict schedule other than a set bedtime of 10 pm and waking at 6:45 am, she smoked, ate meat, had dessert (sugar) after every meal. She had faith and gave thanks every morning which combined with simply being born who she was, seem to be the “reasons” for her long life, rather than any dedication to circadian understanding. She outlived many members of her family. Though she claims to have never been ill, she had cataracts from the age of 20 which she refused to have removed (having had them myself, I cannot imagine living such a long life that way), and became nearly deaf in later life. People who followed her say she declined after moving into a nursing home and deviating from her previous activities.

[@RememberTrueStyle]

Thank you! Applying most of these to my life

[@BirdseyeVu]

Love your channel! Great info on this one, except…please take care, regarding carb bias. It comes across as double-speak to say that a person over 50 can’t process the carbs in bread/pasta anymore, while at the same time highlighting a 120+ French woman. You gotta know she ate bread EVERY day (if not every meal)! Admittedly, it was a different bread than we have on our grocery shelves; but this is still available by baking our own, home-milled sourdough bread. Sue Becker would be an interesting interview, regarding this…it was a real mind change for me and my functional medicine doctor.

[@kam0406]

Tim Brady looks 20 years younger than his age and is said to have a schedule he adheres to for eating and working out and sleep. The man looks fantastic.

[@maaly8111]

Good information. All people have to do is put it to the test and then be consistent with it going forward. Imagine a nation of healthy, energetic, immune system booster elderly people who can do everything that a young person does at 80+ but better.

[@awesomelife3710]

When my aunt, who lives in Puerto Vallarta, turned 90, she told me how sad she was that she had to go to bed at eleven P.M. because she could no longer make it till midnight. She’s now a few months from 99 years old and still likes to stay up with the whole family during gatherings, including with the great-great grandchildren. This is common throughout Latin America, Italy and probably most Latin countries. France not as late, but definitely also Spain. People still have to wake up early to go to work. Go figure. 😅😁

[@reneverheij]

The importance of timing your supplements has always been a gut feeling for me. Now I now its called Chrononutrition, great! I recently pieced together that you can best take: - antioxidants like Vit C, E, Glutathione best at night - probiotics right as you wake up or before bed - vit B, Ashwaganda earlier in the day because of energizing effect - Vit D & Omega best with food - L-Glutamine best not with food Anyone has things to add? ... I find labels of supplements often miss to give these guidelines.

[@levansegnaro4637]

Ashwaganda has a gabanergic, calming effect. It makes it easier and quicker to fall asleep.

[@lilyfrenchy6971]

For the past 10 years, I mostly go to sleep between 1-3am (especially in the winter). Many people say I look 5-8 years younger for my age.

[@ambhatti1538]

On the light comments, I would suggest looking at bit farther into the technology. My family has been experimenting with the GE smart bulbs. I was thinking only about time schedules but my kids started looking at the color of the light as well. Bright daylight during the day and moving towards warmer light in the evening. They are even using the light as a wakeup cue along with a music alarm clock. My wife and I have started using this in our bedroom this winter and it has made it easier to keep a routine schedule.

[@wij8044]

Just my personal, off the brain tips: Seek proper micronutrient such as Vitamin D, Biotin, Niacin, electrolytes (magnesium, potassium, creatine). Regarding macros: Low carb diet; no animal is meant to process as much carbohydrates as we do, but carbs are important for brain functionality. Creatine is also great for brain function, water retention, and possibly recovery. If you’re a man, biotin and caffeine may be more important for your health since they can aid hair development and boost T. If you’re a woman, focus on iron since it can be hard to come by naturally unless you eat a lot of meat, or iron rich foods (that’s common sense obviously, I know). At the end of the day the tenants of great health are most often those with focus on Diet, Sleep, Exercise, proper breathing, and mindfulness. Please feel free to share your tips/ideas.

[@Chopsyochops]

I tend to sleep 1:30am to 9:30-10am. I eat between 12pm protein heavy, 4:30pm mixed protein and carb and again lighter protein more carbs before 8pm. If I deviate from that I tend to feel unwell and moody. I just can’t eat carbs for breakfast or drink caffeine. They make me light headed. My natural carb intake is about 100gs a day and protein around 90gs. My hubby eats totally different to me. He eats about 400gs carbs plus a day and about 30gs protein easy. He’s Italian, I’m Irish. Totally different body types. He trains better at night. I train better around 1pm and am strongest around 11am. If I train heavy at night I have adrenaline all night afterwards and cannot sleep. We are all so different.
