My doctor prescribed medicine because he said I should watch my cholesterol that I should keep it very very low. I never took his medication but I changed my diet change my diet I went back to him 6 months later and he said wow did it ever work so good I've never seen the drug works so well and I told them I didn't take the medicine I changed my diet and he changed the subject. He never asked and wasn't curious what I did.

@@snowyowl6892 Why? Why does the doctor change the subject because he's been caught out? Why not because he knows how dietary changes can work too and so what's the point of having a conversation about it? He didn't ask what foods this guy ate because only certain foods produce results and thus the answer is already known.

You are very fortunate to control your cholesterol with diet alone (for now!), but keep an eye on it. For many of us, medication is the only solution as most of the cholesterol is produced by our liver, not the food we eat. But a bit of friendly advice for the handful of people that might read this. Never go behind the back of your doctor. Your brief moment of triumph is not worth the price of pissing off your doctor, and losing his or her trust in you as a patient. You should have told your doctor you want to try diet first. That's a reasonable action. That way you wouldn't look like a fool had your cholesterol gone up.

Fascinating subject. I bought David’s book 6 months ago and enjoyed reading it. There’s an awful lot of KZbin advice, re: fasting, and And longevity. Since my wonderful wife is 50 and I’m 75 I’m looking for at least another 50 years in order to keep her company. Fortunately, I have never been overweight and I really don’t care if I eat or not so I can go for a week or two with just fasting although I realized I have to replace my electrolytes. That got me into trouble once. I try to get to the gym, at least three times a week and would prefer every day, but since I’m starting new businesses scheduling sometimes becomes difficult. In any case, I have no idea when I will be old but it’s certainly not for the next 30 or 40 years.

You confirmed the Wisdom of what I was living. I fast everyday until 4 P.M. I gave up smoking, drinking, and almost all drugs. I still drink caffeinated drinks as I eat no solids until 4 P.M. I was told by 'some sources' that I could not build muscle after 40 years of age. But that photo of me is when I was 47. I consider regular physical exercise a form of preventive occupational therapy. When I am fully shaved and cleaned up I've been mistaken for 38 when I was 52. Keep up the good works, sir.

When I contracted Lyme disease I also had paralysis in my face as well as a bullseye rash, and I was treated like I was crazy. The initial testing came out negative so they told me there’s no way I had Lyme disease. When I finally got diagnosed after taking it into my own hands It had been 12 years. As a result I still have remaining paralysis in my face after being on antibiotics for five years in order to get it under control. It’s medieval the way they handle Lyme disease.

As a society in whole we have to change our thoughts, beliefs, and communication. Learn to start loving who we are, care for our bodies, slow down breath and listen to what our body need to keep us living healthier longer lives. We are our own best doctor in life if we pay attention to our bodies, rather than living in this stressful world we created in the mind. (I have been going through a major body transformation and I have to say when I spent 40yrs living in my head rather than the whole body, my body was sick!!!!) Our bodies are frequency and when our frequency lowers in the body it creates the horrible diseases that impact the mind.

This and many other talks by Dr Sinclair are so interesting and inspiring. If you're seeing this dr sinclair can you tell me if you are basically consuming all your required calories intake in one go each day? If you are regularly fasting and only eat once, how do you eat possibly 1500 to 2000 or more calories on one meal or are you consuming a low calorie diet? Do you ever let yourself go when on holiday and eat local snacks ? Also curious to know if everyone eventually ends up with some insulin resistance over time?

[@snowyowl6892]

I heard a long time ago that the broken hip story is actually back to front. Apparently your hip gives way and *then* you fall. Reason is that the western sugar/carb diet creates an acid environment resulting in a desperate search by the body for minerals to restore the acid/alkaline balance. (to avoid acidosis) Since we are all generally deficient in minerals, the body must take them from our bones resulting in osteoporosis … ie weak bones which give way or break easily.

Life expectancy is the average length of life of a group of individuals. The way to increase this is to get more individuals to live longer than the current average than die sooner. One way to do this is to persuade the members of the group to eat a healthy diet in moderation and to get regular exercise. I have been watching Dr. Sinclair's interview and bought his book “Why We Age and Why We Don’t Have To” very eye-opening and educative. In there, there's no point increasing lifespan without health span. The goal should be to live longer while staying young and healthy. Sinclair believes that in the foreseeable future, it's possible for humans to live beyond 120 or even 150, without the frailty, diseases and disability we now associate with old age. I hate aging and the illnesses it brings over time. NMN Vitruvin Health is the most cost-effective brand for me.

No such thing as shortcuts. Best healthy thing you can do is no sugar, and FASTING

Hi Dr Sinclair, I have read your journal on 2013 regarding mitochondrial decreasing with ageing. But how about telomere and telomerase participation?

[@juliastantic3033]

I would like to know what he eats for example recipe for one or two meals, would be much appreciated. Thank you.

David is a real hero and truly humble.

[@whittlejoe]

David, please tell us about linoleic acid and how to lower our exposure.

[@freemocean489]

David is 5 months older than me. Will be interesting to see how we both age over the next 8 years. I’m full carnivore + coffee. I focus on about 20 min day of strength and mobility work. Randle cycle is my priority. I recommend Bart Kay for actual science on human nutrition. Time will tell.

[@edgbarra]

Dr Sinclair is on the top of the field in longevity. I think his findings after so many years of research would be consider "actual science" 🤷🏻

[@freemocean489]

@@edgbarra you would think wouldn’t you, but he already looks like shit and does not understand basic nutrition such as the Randle cycle or the quality of meat protein over plant proteins. Or the manifold carcinogens and anti nutrients made by plants. I think he only exists because plant based movement financed him. Very sad, but time will tell

[@mowthpeece1]

Thanks for the laugh.

[@abdelilahbenahmed4350]

Yes , time will tell. But, you can already have some little idea about the future by watching these 3 youtube videos: "How long do health influencers live ?" (3 episodes ) Plant Chompers Channel

I sometimes take lemon grass and Rosemary in warm water. Both from my kitchen garden.

Oh good lord. No wonder I'm sleeping less nowadays. I am taking NMN/Resveratrol at night right after dinner, which I didn't realize was kick starting the energy cycle in my body. My bad. I was trying to keep the OMAD clean by not eating in the morning, the yogurt that I put the NMN & resveratrol powder into, but I guess I'll have to start taking it in the morning.

[@beritmagdalenajohannekuly2980]

It is really important to reduce stress, I take hemp oil and ashwaganda, and other healthy things,because I have ADHD and bipolar disorder, so it is really important for me to reduce stress, because I easily get really stressed more than other people, and meditation is good 👍😊

[@JatinderSingh-oz1hx]

What are the tests available to see your health and age? You may live really long, time is changing. Thanks.

[@timmortimer6267]

A new world of possible right in front of our eyes

[@garyjohnson3751]

Where can you get these 3 supplements as in which firms would you recommend?

[@edgbarra]

I didn't know he was eating mostly a plant based diet, that's quite interesting to consider. I'm definitely gonna do it too

[@kjs1069]

Do it I've been plant based no dairy for 2 yrs & feel better tban ever @ 52. Fast every day too its great. What's important about it is breaking the eating habits we've been conditioned in to.

[@MichelleEinsteinSongBirdsong]

I've been a lactic vegetarian for 53 years, so meat, no fish, no eggs, no mind altering drugs, including alcohol, pot, lsd, etc. For 53 years. Doctor was overjoyed by my recent blood test. She said just keep doing what You're doing. Also I drink plenty of water and get plenty of sleep. I am 78 years young. People are amazed because I don't look my age and I move like a 20 something. I also do Talk & Share Therapy to stay positive and not worry. I gave up smoking in my 30s. I give and receive love. I also thank GOD everyday.
