BEST Anti-Aging Advice for Women Over 40 (Wish I Knew Sooner)

Almost all restaurants cut their olive oil with seed oils. Only the most expensive, high end places use 100% quality, single source EVOO. Eating out a lot or getting loads of take out is a disaster.

[@user-yb7zz9cc9s]

Even the high end places don't. Not in the 5 star place I worked at anyway. They say it's organic and local but it's not. Pure olive oil is like $35 for a tiny bottle.

At 68, I'm still very strong, lifting heavy materials, with a physically active lifestyle, not a workout routine. I've always been muscular, not slender, with a wonderful hourglass voluptuous body. I'm stronger, have more endurance, and healthier than most people my age, including men. I'm the energizer bunny! Fortunately for me, besides having some great genes from my dad, who was a pro football player, I've always been active, riding bicycles (across the US and Europe), dancing, forest work (chainsaw), and mostly unprocessed, organic, and natural foods since I was 14 years old. Rarely drink alcohol, no drugs, including aspirin, and never smoking anything. Even more important for me, I take care of my own health with naturopathic and homeopathic remedies (which are quickly being blocked by commercial medical interests) and NEVER go to doctors. I've never owned a scale for weighing this body. Daily stretching and some yoga helps keep this body flexible. I live in the forest, away from most RF, and no cellular EMF toxicity. Overall, I listen to the body, have a peaceful and spiritual life, and work my butt (which is firm and round) off every day....chop wood, carry water. Glad your guest is promoting fat-positive and natural image values!

[@elainec5333]

Exactly! Doctors ask me for advice because I look better and have better functional labs and images than they do. Interesting you mentioned homeopathic remedies. I rarely need them but accidents sometimes occur and these remedies have served me better than any conventional medical treatment ever has. People often forget that there were systems in place prior to today’s medical industrial complex. I’m glad they employ people and I make money off of their stocks but have rarely elected to utilize their offerings. I have no need and have more interesting and fulfilling things to do with my time and attention.

In Ayurveda, there's a saying of "eating until the first burp." If we're eating slowly and mindfully and not shovelling food into our mouths in front of the TV or on our phones, our body will tell us when it's had enough. Becoming aware of when we have that 'first burp' and then either stopping eating then, or having another couple of mouthfuls (and then our body will give us a second burp) is the easiest way I've found to make sure I'm not overeating. Some days it won't happen until I get to the end of the plate, other days it will happen half way through. We need to start tuning into our bodies and paying attention to what it's telling us because we're all individuals and nobody's body is exactly the same as anybody else's. Trusting ourselves and our bodies rather than religiously or fanatically following what someone else is telling us (perhaps using their ideas as guidance) is the only way to really live our best lives.

[@user-yb7zz9cc9s]

Over-eating has everything to do with what you are eating. If you eat the proper human food(animals) your saitiated signal will turn on and say enough. You cannot physically overeat once your body is fully noursihed. When I was vegetarian/vegan I was always hunger. Never ever saitiated. Ate all day and felt awful. It wasn't until I started eating animal foods/fats did I feel saitiated. I can eat one meal a day and not feel hungry until the next day. I don't think about food constantly the way I did eating only plant stuff.

[@EighthHousePiscesSun]

Just have to clear up the incorrect representation of Pilates: In a Pilates class, you will never do 100 (or even 11) repetitions of a movement, with or without weights. Pilates values quality over quantity- in a beginner-level class, you might perform 10 repetitions of a single movement, but as you progress, you should be reducing the number of repetitions to 8, then 5, then maybe 3. The idea is that, as you develop more body-awareness and strength, you perform fewer repetitions of each movement with more efficiency which means that you get more out of each repetition. What you WILL add more of is variety of movements and the complexity of those movements. I am 42 and have been doing Pilates for 14 years and teaching it to others for 12 years. I get told I’m “shredded”. 😂

Hey don’t knock Pilates and it has more of a place than you think. I’m 54 and teach it to women over 65 …it works to build strength, flexibility and stability (keeps me from falling) and I teach women to get off the ground. We use every plane of motion. Maybe you did the “fitness Pilates” that has no sense of awareness on how you move. And….if you’re out of shape Pilates will help you perform strength training better because it’s targets the how you move. Pilates helps you walk better..live better ..,breath better have a more balanced nervous system…etc etc

I keep thinking of Dr Longo, apparently the world’s top longevity expert We have right now. And all he says on protein - That We already eat too much and the more you eat the worse off you are . And that too much is JJ’s Idea of still not enough! And I just listened to Dr Zach Bush talk on skin health , he’s a microbiome expert, he mentions in his experience those who eat higer protein, especially animal-based, have some of the worst health & he can smell it when one walks in a room , the acids and bitterness that those highly protein foods create in the body So I’m really not sure if this is the way to go. I like JJ ‘& she really believes in what she teaches . But Maybe these kinds of people need to stop with extremes and comes back to common sense of our anatomy.

I had to smile as I listened to your discussion. You ladies are sweet and well-intentioned, but wait until YOU are in your sixties after having spent most of your life in high stress jobs, maintaining homes and families, going through divorces, experiencing family deaths and the impact of them, and/or taking care of other people (including parents). It’s a whole different world. You WILL morph into a completely different person physiologically and mentally. I also looked great at your age, and thought I would never look or feel like most “older women.” That was so untrue. At a certain age, no matter what you do, your tiny waists, flat abs, and slim arms will be traits of the past. I was always a gym rat (doing resistance training together with aerobic classes) and/or a dancer, but it DIDN’T MATTER. As you age, you start encountering sleep difficulties because your hormones are naturally out of balance. However, going on HRT involves risk - many doctors won’t prescribe it at all OR will require women to sign disclaimers so you can’t sue them if you develop cancer. The imbalance further spikes cortisol levels, and you develop insulin resistance. Weight gain and fatigue naturally follow. You are too tired to get through your day, let alone lift weights. To summarize - you ladies mean well, but have no first person knowledge of the impact of aging - yet. So, although your conversation is interesting and you make some valid points, it doesn’t have a basis in certain hard core realities that are common to all.

Glucose Godness (Jessie Inchauspe) suggests eating vegetables first. She claims that veggie starters reduce the glucose spike off the meal that follows them, then protein. The objective is for the veggie starter to make up about 30% of the meal.

[@Cass-gi4kk]

I do this but everyone reacts differently to glucose spikes and her experiment is her body only.

[@Nutritionistheanswer]

​@@Cass-gi4kk I think you have to see what you are leaning towards. If it is easy for you to add protein and difficult to add veggies, it's probably better to start with veggies so you don't leave them out especially the cruciferous ones. If it is easy for you to eat veggies, and you often forget about the protein it is probably better to do the reverse such as eat protein first and then veggies. Another trick is to have one pot meals or omelets that give you everything at once so you don't have to choose. There are really tasty ideas such having a pesto, tomato broccoli omelet. Or a ground beef lasagna and instead of pasta use zucchini. This is so good.

[@Cass-gi4kk]

@@Nutritionistheanswer that’s why I eat the veggies first. I never start my day with starches. Veggies and proteins always first so I know I got proteins and antioxidants to start the day. It’s a good advice actually I think considering what people usually eat for breakfast.

@@Cass-gi4kk yeah definitely. Sometimes I wonder what people are thinking. I know people who think a bag of doritos is breakfast. 😳. Very sad. I can't do high starch at all. I need healthy fat, protein and low starch veggies. Sometimes I add low sugar fruits but very small quantities like berries, lemon and lime.

I really enjoyed this conversation and found it full of valuable insights. However, I'm curious if anyone else has had different experiences. As a 37-year-old woman who exercises regularly and maintains a healthy lifestyle, I was surprised when I started gaining weight after incorporating more protein and breakfast into my routine, as recommended. I weighed 125 pounds and have never been over 150, now my current weight is 153 lbs, not even during pregnancy I was this heavy. I've noticed an increase in belly fat that I can't seem to get rid of. Interestingly, I've felt better when I skip breakfast and practice intermittent fasting. I'm starting to fast again to help return to my previous weight and reduce belly fat. Focusing on skipping breakfast and eating more vegetables, along with protein and some carbs, seems to be working for me. I wonder if other women have had similar experiences, or if I'm alone in this.

[@vestalingvyte4634]

I loved this talk. Thank you. I want to age strong and gracefully. That being said, I am sometimes overwhelmed with the information we hear. From eating protein first to eating veggies first as a Jessie Inchauspe said, as well as intermittent fasting and other scientific information out there, it can be frustrating. But I learned that I really have to listen to my body while trying different scientific methods. For example, I do not like eating breakfast in the morning, I prefer to start with lunch (I typically just do 2 meals a da)I barely have a snack, unless it’s olives or walnuts of blueberries. So in the end, I’ve decided to stop being overwhelmed, and as JJ said, try one thing, regardless of which advice I hear on the show and see how it makes me feel and what results I get. Maybe a topic for a show could be the best way to deal with so much info in a healthy way. Thank you

💯 agree with the importance of protein intake, especially for women over 35. The trick is what kind of protein. If one starts loading on ribs with BBQ sauce or any other meat with gravy and salad dressings, it's not it. We're talking about cleaning protein and reduction (complete removal is better, but impossible for most) of sugar and starchy foods (bred, pasta, cereals, rice). When we hear about correlation of protein and cancer, it's not about protein itself. The development of cancer and other issues in human body has to do with combination of protein, starch and sugars.

Great information! As a 59 year old woman, I would love to hear more about the neurological changes for someone who's been sedentary (academic) for too many years. Every time I add exercise, I experience insomnia and have to stop. It feels very defeating to not understand a post-menopausal brain when exercise is introduced.

[@MiraculousAngelTarot]

Shortly before you wake up and around 30 min. after you get up from the bed, there's a spike in cortisol which helps you you wake up and stay awake. Cortisol is also hormone released in stressful situations. Each new exercise (moderate or high intensity) is a stress for the organism and cortisol increases for a while after it. What you can do is train in the morning, avoid caffeine and excessive exercise where your heart is rushing (like running) and concentrate on weight lifting, walking and HIIT. With HIIT cortisol do increase but for a very short time while the effect on the muscles' tone is significant. You also might want to check your cortisol and insulin levels.

@MiraculousAngelTarot I appreciate the input. Interestingly, however, I recently learned that weightlifter can experience nervous system fatigue which can be evidenced by insomnia. To someone like me, getting back into weight lifting after menopause (menopause restructures the brain), the nervous system adapts before the muscles. You are quite correct about the hormonal changes. But there's a neurological change, as well. 🤗

Do 20-30 minutes of yin yoga before bed 😴

Can we get more 40s 50s 60s 70s age groups of women start youtubing. We really need that, it will help us acknowledge how life is supposed to be. Please🙏🙏🙏

[@thebluecrush777]

I agree with another person who commented- a few good tips but overall seems slightly obsessive, overly complicated and still reinforcing the emphasis of being thin while disguised as strong. It also seems like a pleasure draining topic. What if more people tuned into and listened to their own bodies instead of being told what to eat, drink, take, or how to move by yet another thin, wealthy, white woman?

[@Mmmmkaaay]

As evidenced by 60% obesity rates, clearly some folks need guidance. I'm not sure why her skin color matters. 🧐

[@tammytrew7256]

She works hard to look like she does. There is a lot of research coming out about how much protein women need to maintain and build muscle. And for me, after watching my mom fade quickly fighting cancer, and passing in January, you better believe I am listening to a lot of her advice and several other highly informed, educated, and experienced women that are speaking up about this. I used to be a gymnast and I know what good strength feels like and I know I need to get back to that in my 50's!

[@zunairbirds3984]

Beautiful sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jenniferstamp1006]

Fantastic conversation!!

[@kristen5396]

Thank you so much for sharing the tips or other women to live a healthier stronger life. I don’t think that they are saying that Pilates is not beneficial. It’s giving bigger advice about lifting and different aspects to take for women. I want to live a healthier life I want to live longer so, thank you so much for this advice we as women don’t have a lot of female mentors so by getting offended by the advice just shows how little that women support other women.

[@megdelawitmamo401]

Thank you

Awesome conversation!! Thanks for sharing...

Glad you enjoyed it! 💖

She is the epitome of health. Looking forward to watching :)

[@NiTeFiSe.collie]

Some helpful tips but overall, no thank you, what a way to suck the enjoyment out of life. I'll continue with my 80-20 rule focusing on good habits rather than diet. I eat as natural as I can and move my body in enjoyable ways. No lotions. No potions. No novel supplements. And the whole point of going to a restaurant is to have an enjoyable meal/time so I'm going to happily order whatever I fancy.

[@lamontanera85]

I agree -- going to the DEXA scan was one of the most stress inducing, nerve wracking deals ever..it always sends me spiraling. I think it's weird how she goes from saying 'oh weight isn't everything' to...go get a DEXA scan, see aaaalll the data. No thank you. I know what's normal for my body, and honestly the more I try to fight it, the more it fights me back. I'm around 30% body fat, and for me that's normal. NOT EVERYONE IS THE SAME -- ugh -- and these two ectomorphs have their naturally slim body type telling the rest of us that they have all the answers? Annoying -- I work out 6-7 days a week, skate, walk my dog 3x a week... blah blah. There's more to life!

[@NiTeFiSe.collie]

@@lamontanera85 Yes, yes, and yes. I smartened up when I revisited old photos of my great grandmother, grandmother, aunts, etc.. we all are/were short, plump, and pear shaped. Total self acceptance now.

[@thebluecrush777]

@@lamontanera85tooootally agree! Two really thin and fit white women doling out advice on what everyone should be doing- no thanks! Every body is bio-individual and what works for some won’t for others! Also- I want to enjoy life- not be obsessive and worrying about every bit of food.

[@patriciasozalac.4133]

Thank you for this podcast. Have been dealing with injuries the last several years and exercise has been challenging but am trying to be creative to find ways to keep moving. JJ is inspiring. Can you share the bluetooth scale and DEXA scan please? I worry about muscle loss and bone density with not being able to be as active as I used to be before injuries. Thank you both!

[@pyoung]

Hi @Marie, Thanks for the informative video. As I age, this kind of self-care information becomes more important. ❤

[@sharonbackos4975]

JJ knows her stuff’

[@shonafox8225]

This is very interesting as a postmenopausal woman late fifties, but I have hypothyroid, adrenals are flatlined, cortisol is toast, because I am recovering from Mold Mycotoxin illness..I am on an autoimmune diet ( very restrictive ) and lots of protein which I struggle to eat like red meat - what would JJ think about this in terms of diet and exercise? OH! the Icing on my "health" cake = I have exercise fatigue that sets in 1 hour after a workout that makes me lay down for 1-2 hours.. Total suck lol

[@wiredolive2871]

Check out the Root Cause Protocol, Dr. Morley Robbins. Sending you best wishes!

[@louisebotos7321]

try shorter workouts, l get that fatigue too . lt sucks

Good interview

[@lynneberry6495]

But I see Allulose is banned in Europe and the US as a possible carcinogen!? Also not authorised in UK nor Australia! Your thoughts please? 😲

[@dpolina1]

Unfortunately there's no method that correctly measures body fat that doesn't involve killing the subject in the process. Dexa can also be off by % points which can matter quite a bit at lower body fat. In fact most methods are inconsistently inaccurate which makes them useless for trend charting too.

[@williamtownshend9593]

Very interesting! Please send a link to the study on Creatine for women. Thanks

[@victoriawhiffen1596]

Such a great episode!

[@jewelvannucci3129]

Where do you get a biometric measuring tape and what is it actually called?

[@cherylcox4609]

Pea protein is known to be higher in lead and heavy metals. Not a good suggestion unfortunately.

Meat=protein 🍗🥓🥩

[@jenniferbyrne4567]

Other than meat what is a good protein for Vegans? Tofu? Beans?

[@gabrielab]

Love JJ ❤❤❤

Great video. Very informative

I’ve tried small doses of creatine monohydrate and creatine HCL. Both of them made me retain water which makes my joints swell. My knees have been replaced, and when they swell, I’m miserable.

[@bonmotze]

I left after the whole "Track your food" bs and the praising of male influencers. I get it that Andy Galpin and the Longevity Guru Attia might be interesting for dudes but we arent little men. 30 lost minutes that I never get back but at least I know now that her husband gained 25 pounds of muscles in one year lol... sooooo relatable...

Anavar has been a game changer for me! At 57, I’m in the best shape of my life with that and consistent weight training. It’s the safest steroid for females.

Almost all restaurants cut their olive oil with seed oils. Only the most high end places use quality EVOO. Eating out a lot or getting loads of take out is a disaster.

[@Mmmmkaaay]

And even olive oil on the shelves can only have a small percentage of actual olive oil by law. The FDA isn't looking out for us AT ALL.

[@kouamerenekouame]

Very interesting to hear that from you 👍. She is incredible and strong too 👍.

There is so much out there..... where do I get the best creatine, eaa, and protein powder for a lactose intolerant pescatarian?

[@LSS495]

I hate to tell your guest that someday, she and her husband may have to hire someone to help BOTH of them get off the toilet or out of a chair. You have to feel well enough to exercise, and there are problems of aging beyond dietary factors that happen regardless of the actions taken to avoid them.

There are some women's only intro to strength & conditioning classes and callisthenic classes in larger cities

She gives a great argument for the carnivore diet. Protein=💪

I would love to see some actual old people discussing these things.

[@annablair6634]

What is the creatine she recommends

[@MarianDouglasUngaro]

It's an important amino acid. You can find plenty of info on creatine online. I'd also recommend trying to get planet-based nutrition rather than things that come from other animals, including creatine. Take very good care! ☺️

[@ozarkcyn1]

And Dolly has had NUMEROUS surgeries to look like she does. She can afford to do everything to her body to look her best. That's reality. it's NOT what she eats or the weights she lifts.
