Now that we understand the root causes of aging, how do we actually address the hallmarks of aging? What are the levers we have to optimize our health and longevity? Because medicine has it all wrong. We don't need to treat disease. When we focus on fostering optimal health, disease goes away as a side effect.

Key Point: Food is essential to longevity

You cannot exercise or think your way out of a bad diet. You literally put pounds of food in your system every single day, and every molecule has an effect on your biology. The three key factors are what you eat, how you eat, and when you eat.

Key Point: Calorie restriction drives autophagy

Autophagy is your internal garbage-collection system. If you’re eating all the time, you're not giving your body’s garbage collectors a chance to remove old and damaged cells, which then continue to circulate in your body and wreak havoc. Autophagy improves metabolic health and all the anti-aging systems in your body, so it’s important to know how to activate it.

Key Point: Cut out sugar and refined carbohydrates

Sugar and refined flours are detrimental to longevity pathways and molecules such as mTOR, CMPK, and sirtuins. If you want to turn off your longevity genes, eat sugar.
