It's Weird, But It Turns On Your Body's Anti-Aging Switch Fast : 1487
Summary
Host Dave Asprey explains how modern lifestyle factors suppress mitophagy, the cellular process that recycles damaged mitochondria. He outlines a protocol to reactivate this longevity switch using fasting, high-intensity exercise, and cold exposure. Additionally, he recommends boosting NAD+ levels with NMN or NR supplements and utilizing Urolithin A and spermidine to enhance mitochondrial health and performance.
