Today on Something You Should Know, are you getting touched enough? I'll tell you why it's so important. Then, a lot of things can accelerate aging, and there are so many simple ways to fight back.
I think my favorite of these is to brush your teeth. What we've discovered is that people who have worse oral health actually have a higher risk of heart disease. There's maybe even a link with dementia because the bacteria that cause gum disease have been found in the brains of people who've got dementia.
Also, why you need to check your tires now that the weather has turned colder. And loneliness, especially during the holidays, can be so hard to deal with. And it's bad for your health.
In fact, the Surgeon General defined loneliness as the number one medical problem in the United States today. Not cancer, not heart disease, loneliness. And most people don't realize social isolation is as dangerous for early death as cigarette smoke.
All this today on Something You Should Know. We talk a lot about health on Something You Should Know, and I guess it motivates me. I mean, I'm not a nut about it, but I try to take care of my health. I want to preserve my mobility and strength as I get older. And I recently started taking this supplement. Maybe you've heard about it. It's called MitoPure.
MitoPure is a precise dose of something called Urolithin A that supports your health by encouraging cellular renewal. Since I started taking it... I can tell I have more energy and I notice I recover faster after I exercise. I did some research on this too. There's some real science here that supports what I'm saying. And so does my experience.
MitoPure is the only urolithin A supplement on the market that is clinically proven to target the effects of age-related cellular decline. And Mito Pure is shown to deliver double-digit increases in muscle strength and endurance without a change in exercise. From my own experience, I have more energy and strength and just overall feel better every day. And who doesn't want that?
And I'm not just recommending it to you on this podcast. I tell friends and other people I know about it because of how it makes me feel. Now, Timeline is the company behind MitoPure, and Timeline is offering 10% off your order of MitoPure. Go to Timeline.com slash something. That's T-I-M-E-L-I-N-E dot com slash something.
