    You're looking great, Lance. What you're doing is working. I'm not far behind in age but far behind in fitness, biohacking and training. You're the example to aspire toward.

    Hi Lance - new sub here - I just wanted to say that I _massively_ appreciate your approach, your thoroughness, your impeccable attention to detail, and your refusal to 'dumb it down.' Thanks so much for what you do - you inspire me to vastly increase my knowledge. (I've even gone through over 100 3x5 index cards to aid me in learning the relevant jargon/terms.) Thanks for all you do, Lance! Cheers. 👍💪

      Thanks, I appreciate that. Sometime this year, I'm planning on releasing a new course on the "Science of Longevity." This won't have any strategies or interventions to defeat aging, it'll be more about how the human body works at the cellular level.

    Another excellent presentation. The perennial problem with mouse studies is that any intervention that protects them against oxitive stress invariably increases their lifespan by 30% (give or take). Humans oxitive stress protection is at least 6x better than a mouse, so any intervention that can support an already excellent system, is only going to add a small additional benefit. That said, as a frequent eater of mushrooms, I’m more than happy to add more porcini mushrooms to my diet.

    Sirtuins activators can also act as a two edge sword. They can both suppress or promote specific tumours which can lead to certain cancers. There are many scientific and scholarly articles on this. It would be a lot safer and just as effective to use nicotinamide as it also upregulates NAD, but not sirtuins

    Yeah I'm thinking we've made this all way too damn complicated. I'm feeling better than anytime in my life with focusing on protein and fats. I can now slowly start to incorporate things back in. I had antibiotics, this has wrecked my gut microbiome. Meat seems to finally be healing.
