Sleeping correctly because sleep is the ability to recover.
You have to understand that aspect of it.
People that complain to me about spending money on mattresses, I'm like, no, double down on having the best mattress you can get and the best sleep you can get.
Because you need that for recovery.
That is part of longevity.
That's part of living well.
You're not going to recover if you don't sleep well.
If you don't eat well, you're not going to recover correctly.
You're going to feel like crap because it affects your immune system.
Being proactive versus being reactive.
Yes.
Basically, important aspect is fasting is good because fasting activates autophagy and it gives the body a break.
Autophagy gets rid of those bad signals, those bad things that are released by those zombie cells, those senescent cells that are there that cause more havoc.
The reason why we know that those signals are bad is, for instance, in a petri dish, and in our lab we've done this experiment, if I mix a zombie, the senescent cell, with a very young cell and I mix it together, what I get, the physical aspect, what's called the phenotype, the feature I get from the new cells are old cells.
And it's because those signalers are causing the young cells to become old.
I see.
So if we can eliminate that aspect of some of those signals, which diet helps tremendously, exercise helps tremendously.
There's a lot of things that you can actually do on a daily basis that really doesn't cost much money, that you can slow down that process of the formation of senescence, that feeling that you feel bad, you know, these types of things, even breathing exercises.
You know, what are you doing when you do breathing exercise or what are you doing when you're sprinting?
Why do you feel so well after you walk or you've sprinted or whatever?
