How old are you? Odds are your answer is a number of years - a metric known as your "chronological age." Although this number isn’t meaningless, it fails to capture the full picture of aging. Your "biological age" may be a far more useful metric. This is the degree to which your biology has changed over a given period of time.
“Aging is starting at a molecular level, and over time this is going to give rise to all the functional changes and manifestations that we tend to see with aging,” says Dr. Morgan Levine, author of the book True Age. Unlike chronological age, your biological age is malleable: Scientists know that it’s possible to slow biological aging by maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
But is it possible to actually reverse the aging process? See what Dr. Levine has to say about the potential of anti-aging research in this Big Think interview.

TLDW: Biological age (how old your body is based on its current condition) is malleable whilst chronological age (number of years you have lived) is not. You can reduce your biological age by eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, getting enough sleep, managing stress, avoiding smoking and alcohol and getting regular medical checkups
Nah, exercising regularly is going to age you faster.
@@Urketadichow so?
@@user-bf3yh6ue7p If you exercise more, you eat more. If you eat more, you age more.
Also just exercise itself is a stressor and is killing your cells. If you check people who live in blue zones their idea of exercise is completely different from ours.
They have veeery relaxing activities.
Can you explain more 🥹 I am really interested in it. So it’s better to only walk or ride the bycicle as exercise ? Do you mean that too much Sport or hard Sport makes us older because of cortisol? Can you explain everything you know I am really so curious
@@Urketadic What is a blue zone?
The question in the title is actually addressed only in the 30 seconds between 6:54 and 7:25 (and the answer is exactly what you would expect). Just in case anyone else mistakenly expects the 10 minutes to be spent actually covering the topic of the title.
Thnks 🌴👍
Thank you.
....wha...what....Sorry, I got stuck on "monochromatic time"...
Ten minutes to remind me eating well and exercising are good for me. Earth shattering.
You are very usefull
so just dont drink?
For ten years I had a job that allowed me to take a daily nap and I had good dietary habits. It made a huge difference in my appearance.
I also took daily naps for about 10 years. I still get surprised looks when people find im 38 instead of mid 20’s
I also fasted almost my entire life and most of the day due to my sleep disorder. My sleep performance was very good but i just had daytime sleepiness issues.
I don’t think anyone wants to live forever, but rather look and feel good for longer, while they’re here.
My elderly mom had a follow up appointment with her physician yesterday. According to the Levine Biological Age Calculator based on her latest bloodwork test results, she has now aged minus 18 years during the last 4 years. She eats a Slow Carb, Slow Fat diet style - whole plant food carbs and whole plant food fats both with fiber, helping the body fully assimilate the nutrients without overwhelming its metabolic systems and pathways.
Here is her menu for a typical day:
Breakfast: Organic steel cut oats with some buckwheat and wild blueberries, raspberries, 1/2 banana, tablespoon of ground flax and ground chia seeds, tablespoon of hemp seeds, organic soy milk, Ceylon cinnamon.
Lunch: Green smoothie heavy on the low-oxalate greens (frozen kale or collard greens, frozen pineapple, banana, orange, lemon wedge with rind, organic soy milk, avocado sliver, amla powder, dulse flakes, apple cider vinegar, blackstrap molasses, nutritional yeast, small scoop of hemp protein powder, fresh ginger, medjool date, fresh kale) with a small handful of almonds and walnuts - or - some soup and salad.
Before dinner snack: one apple.
Dinner: Variety of simple meals including spaghetti, chili, vegetable soup with beans, lintel miso soup with organic tofu cubes/onions/mushrooms/kale, split pea soup with onions/mushrooms/carrots/celery/potato, roasted vegetables (squash/carrots/potatoes), rice and beans bowl with onions/mushrooms/kale/peppers/salsa, organic tofu scramble with onions/mushrooms/peppers/kale/turmeric/nutritional yeast, broccoli, asparagus, green beans, etc.
Dessert: frozen banana whip with papaya or strawberries topped some days with a couple of macadamia nuts or a Brazil nut - or - some red grapes.
Make sure to include G-Bombs every day for optimal immune system (i.e. - greens, beans, onions, mushrooms, berries, seeds).
Avoid most processed foods. Include tofu perhaps twice a week but not more. Stop eating after an early dinner except for a few pistachios before bedtime.
See now that is actionable advice. Love the video but actionable suggestions would have been great 😃👍
TY for posting this!

Where does she get the omega 3’s?
@@danmaertens7872 She gets ALA from the ground flax seeds, ground chia seeds, walnuts and leafy greens. I asked her doctor to do an omega-3 index test but it was not available at the university medical center lab from some reason. To be safe until we find a test for her, right now she supplements with an algae based EPA/DHA. Cheers!
You don't get to be successful without risk.

I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life...
Yep, understanding you have actually A LOT of control in your aging is life changing and everybody should have the right to learn this too
I'm not a drinker....I do eat healthy...I'm not picky when it comes to food....I enjoy walking/fast walking. I practice yoga
I try to stay healthy
I noticed when I'm not around people who are stressful & toxic my body functions at its peak just fine.
Love this video Aging is not a disease. Anti-aging is not about curing disease, it's about improving the quality of life
Glad you liked it!
Only Improving life quality? Well, that’s what a palliative physician would also tells you while he is drugging you.
There are some scientists who would beg to differ. I think we will cure aging in our lives.
Yea, we don’t need a panacea against aging. Just give the people drugs to improve life quality. That’s how palliative medicine works. No cure.
Aging is a disease
I have some friends who are heavy drinkers, and some who dont drink at all, and the non drinkers look about 5-10 years younger across the board.
@Dish the Dirt well, you can believe whatever you want to that justifies your poor lifestyle choices
What do they drink most?
Beers? Or cocktails?
I've noticed that people nowadays are starting to show aging symptoms after the age of 45. I didn't have particularly "good" skin care or anti aging practices before my 50s, mainly due to other priorities as... life was happening!! And I used to look very young. Even now people say I look young for my age. One thing I started to notice is the more I started to worry about aging , the more I aged. I firmly believe that media and society's irrational´s pressures of looking young and looking of certain way, places a heavy toll on our subconscious. When we get full of fear we start to manifest that we were fearful of such ageing, illnesses, etc.
This much is true.
But one thing that is fact, you are aging and things are changing by the moment right now right now right now. We just have to work on our cellular development. When the cells are healthy in whatever structure and they are not altered, influenced or broken and are developing in their natural form, I believe that’s when we are, our healthiest & capable of living longer lives on this physical plane.
I agree with you. I'm 54 next month and I think a lot about aging and not wanting to look my age. People used to tell me I look younger than my age. Now I'm starting to look old
Most people are surprised to learn that I’m 45, not in my 20s or early 30s. I’ve worn sunscreen everyday since high school (after trying to tan, which was a disaster since I have very little melanin to begin with), I’ve continued to get movement daily through walking, biking, or strength training, and I’ve kept my weight within a healthy range. I definitely feel my age some days more than others, but I hope to continue defying my age for a long time.
Looking for a girlfriend with those attributes is really not easy - most women look 20 years older than me. It's a pity.
@microfx Maybe focus less on surface level physical attributes, my guy.
@@grins9882 has nothing to do with that
Yeah I'm constantly told that I look younger than I actually am too. I've just always worked very physical job and I have eczema so I constantly use lotion. That being said I think that people are just very poor judges of age. Still looking for a wife that's 15ish years younger than me. That's easy though. Young women are always looking for some sugar daddy but they don't actually love them.
What climate do you live in? I know applying sunscreen has really positive results, but I'm in the UK, and it feels like overkill to apply and reapply daily in British weather.
My Levin PhenoAge consistently comes in about 17 years lower (am in late 60s). Last 10 + years have exercised moderately almost every day and eat a plant based diet. Very little junk food and animal foods - do eat a little wild sardines. Also practice time restricted eating. Follow the work of scientist (although some have become too commercial and biased imo) in the aging field and steer clear of lower tier purveyors of anti aging/ health "information" especially those with stuff to sell. My focus is on delaying disease and maintaining my mind. On days where exercise, diet and sleep all come together, i simply feel so much better.
Wow that’s awesome! If I may ask, which scientists do u follow? It’s hard to know which is bought out vs not
From 20 to 50, I felt like I aged about 5 years. Form 50 to 56, I feel like I aged 30 years.
Did you do anything different from 50 to 56?
Did you start working out?
I started aging at 60.
I aged 25 years from the ages of 35 to 41
Yes, because the damage accumulates in your cells until it reaches critical mass and results in mass organ malfunction and death.

@@SheffAdam 🤣
She clearly knows what she's talking about looking like that! I'm a year older than her and still look young for my age, but most people I know who are my age look significantly older. One thing not mention in this video (unless I missed it) was excessive sun exposure. UVA can cause significant aging to the skin. If you're in Australia like me, sunscreen daily is a must! We have a hole in our ozone layer, so there's no natural filtering of UV rays!
How old is she?
PLEASE more videos like this!
7:35. "Lifestyle is our best ticket." That's golden. What more could be expected?
Excellent and valuable content! Thank you!
Thank you so much for your sharing
It's hard to believe she's 62 years old.
even harder to believe she's 97
I honestly can't believe she's not 13.
She’s actually 68.
More like 37, or at least it says in her bio
She's 38
I tried 2 different free online phenotypic age calculators based on the last lab test I did a few years ago. 1. Ageless Rx Phenotypic Age Calculator (requires you to input your email, but gives nice PDF report and said it is based on Morgan Levine's paper) 2. Thrivous free PhenoAge calculator (doesn't require email). The first one said I am about -10 my chronological age while the second one said I am about -14 my chronological age putting me at 13 years old (I wonder how accurate it is). Yes I do try to have a healthy diet (tries to avoid deep fried/processed food, eats vegetables and some fruits), exercise lightly once/twice a week (but am quite skinny and unfit), maintain a good sleep cycle, and manage my stress levels. Absolutely avoids smoking/second hand smoke and almost no alcohol. From the comments I read it seems like everyone is reporting lower phenotypic age than chronological age. I wonder if anyone had higher phenotypic age than chronological age.
wow this could have been like a 50 second video
lol , you don't care to more deeply understand the concepts ?!
Okay not 50 seconds but maybe 5 minutes lol 😅
This is the most sense I’ve heard from longevity science. 🙌🙌
At what part of the video does the filling stop and the content start?
In the 30 seconds starting at 6:54
I have always looked 10+ years younger than I am. This may just be looks, rather than health. I remember being carded at a bar when I was 40. We all age anyway, whether it is quickly or slowly. At 74, I am on beta blockers and prostate meds, and I have recurrent colitis. My lumbar spine looks like a train wreck and I've had surgery for sciatica, so age does take its toll eventually. I rarely drink alcohol, so coffee is my only vice. I hope that walking 30 minutes a day and cutting out junk food can give me many more years. Aging slowly seems to run in the family, since my father and his siblings all lived to be 90. 15 more years of life sounds good to me.
from someone who is young, i hope you live a very long life
@@odette4059 Thanks. I already have lived long so far.
Potassium/magnesium/thiamine is much better than beta blockers
Zinc/Lugol's iodine is better than any prostate meds
Benfotiamine works great for sciatica
Digging the fact you’re on here communicating.
Same with my family my great grandma and her mom both died at 100 years old and I got 2 other grandmas almost in their 80s one of them still takes long walks in the mornings
Love your quality production
Ten minute video, all to say "eat healthy and exercise and biologically you won't age as fast" 😂😂😂😂
Fats are always slow 😂😂😂
Thanks for the summary lol
Biological age ~ phenotypic age ≠ Chronological age - buffer +/- 5 year
... reverse/slow aging - drug , excercise
prevent and keeping healthy and optimal functions
And fasting!
@Cameo G . In response to your reply... Yes, we are aging right now. As mentioned in the video, we have been aging since before we were born. And this is a fact we all have to accept. This is a reality!!!. We cannot look like children or look like we were in our twenties ALL our lives. But the more fear we instigate in people about aging and the more ageism we create in our societies and the more fear we create on people to show their greys and wrinkles. We have seen many examples of people investing a lot of money on treatments not to look older and many of them have gone horribly wrong. The only winners are the organisations who have promoted those types of fear in our societies. in reality the happier people I have seen are the people who accept themselves as they trully are independently of their wrincles or whatever society says they should not have.
Almost 10 minutes to know: eat well, sleep well, move... Nice 😅
best to watch yt Dr Berg, Dr Eckberg, Dr Mindy pelz, Dr Boz, Dr ken berry, nutrion with judy, dr group, dr axe vid s on getting your body to work correctly.
Love this video
The question isn't “What can I do to look young and stay healthy?” it is “Why does society so often lead people to do the opposite?”
You are poor. You have to work real hard or have poor living standers. Either way, you will age faster. Or if you just like to hurt your body for fun, like getting too much sunlight, eating/smoking/drinking shits...
It is called freedom of choice..
@@Mannifred3000we should be asking why it’s so expensive to eat healthy. Fast food is cheap because they target poor people… makes it addicting from the food additives to the ADs we see on TV. They can’t afford to eat healthy and don’t have the time to prepare their own food AND cheap fast food can generally fill somebody up.
@@danilcx6648 Because good foods cost more than cheap foods?
It's all about money. There's more money to be made if people can be urged to make poor "lifestyle" choices (diet, health, recreation (etc)). Don't think "society" leads people to act against their own best interests; it's unfettered Capitalism that doesn't care.
Speaking as someone in my mid 40s who is frequently confused for early-to-mid 20s, I never drink or smoke; but I also don't exercise, rarely go outside, and I eat nothing but junk food. So...
Fantastic information presented in a clear way. Love this video and will be sharing!
USELESS VIDEO made to fool public
But very basic information
So good!
Also, the credo "Black don't crack" is a real thing. I wish this video discussed how Black, Asian and other darker skin types have special melanin resources (pheomelanin) and both melanin and collagen in abundance in comparison to Europeans and other lighter skinned peoples. When I see white people of my age I am shocked to see crepe-y skin, crows feet and lines on their face. I saw this 23 year old white girl (Scottish and Italian) with severe crows feet, and couldn't believe my eyes. I often run to mirror to look at myself when I see this because it makes me feel like this must be happening to me too but it isn't.
Yup so true!!!!! We age extremely graceful. Im 45 and get mistaken for being in my 20’s and 30’s
I’m white as can be and have be mistaken constantly for being 15 to 20 years younger than I am. Half my age literally.
amen. i thank God i was born Black
One good reason that it wouldn't be mentioned is that the video is titled, "How to slow down aging", but changing races isn't possible.
Thank you for sharing. ❤
ugh this is a one to two sentence piece of information, I'll never get these 10 minutes back
When alcohol was mentioned I started thinking about european countries who drink on a daily yet still looks amazing, Life’s a curiousity, I guess. Bless everyone❤
The reason French women look so good even into their 60s is because they don’t do anything in excess. Even though they eat rich, fatty food and drink red wine with their meals, their portions are much smaller than average and about 4 times smaller than what an American would eat for one meal. Limit everything you consume and you’ll look and feel so much better
Eat healthy and exercise. Mind blown.
Same recycled advice, go figure.😀
I did the phenotype age with my most recent blood work and it says my biological age is 20 years old 😮 and I'm 35!! Not too shabby if you ask me lol
where did you take this test ?
Do you exercise everyday?
@@happychemist I do. I run an average of 4 miles everyday with some strength training here and there.
@@TeKeyaKrystal There are several sites online. I just googled it and tried several till I found one that didn't ask for subscriptions and my personal information. I can't remember which one in particular is the one I used.
I’ve taken multiple tests and difference of 15+ years a few months apart. We can’t trust these tests, IMHO.
Oh my god, I absolutely love the symmetry of the background. 😍
Nothing on sun cream?
I found that fasting really helps with age. With 6 siblings, Im the 2nd oldest child in my family and 41. Everyone always says I look the youngest because my siblings dont fast and eat too much.
currently on day 2 of intermittent fasting 🙌🏽 hope to keep this up for life
How long do you fast, out of interest?
@@joha3156 Skip breakfast and lunch, and only eat dinner. No schedule, but I break the routine once or twice every week, still fairly consistent.
yep, fasting slows down aging. in my case, I skip dinner and breakfast.
Title is "You can slow down aging with zero weird tricks", but the video doesn't really give any new information on it. Just clickbait. :\
This vide literally said nothing lol: "Your body degrades at a cellular level as you age. You can slow the process by exercising and eating right and doing all the things that everyone already knows are healthy."
Thanks, we know lol
For example I have developed the habit of cleaning my hair with lukewarm water once a week. At first it was difficult to deal with the new system, but now my hair is in very good condition, colour, flexibility, brilliance, etc
This is pretty interesting, this means my lifestyle is going in the right path, I'm 41 years young, I can do more physical drills than I could when I was 30 years old ( I was old ), I stopped doing what everyone else does and start listening to my body, looking at the response my skin would have to whatever input I had in my body and then proceed to remove and keep, also having an excellent nutritional rotation is critical to support the immune system dynamic, I am writing a report on Toxicity and Nutrients Balance, this is highly overlooked I think we need to focus on that.
any guidelines we can follow on what not to eat at least
90% of global death is due to lifestyle disease, so plz. Lifestyle is problem today, no nation, no country, no healthcare system is able to control LIFESTYLE DISEASE
Nir Barzilai, David Sinclair & Valter Longo should talk about this...
For those in medicine, can’t one estimate biological age by measuring telomere length?
Was expecting to be told how to slow down ageing with zero weird tricks.
This woman speaks so much truth
I think we all know a healthier life style is better for us. Question is why don't we do better? Why do we insist on driving instead of walking? Why we eat junk foods instead of nutritious meals? Culture? Environment? Genetics? Are we psychologically doomed to age before our time is up?
because it is easier, ppl like easy and high dopamine inducing actions. Everything worthwhile is difficult and in this hedonistic society, ppl run away from difficult, low dopamine actions.. it is the way of the weak lol
@@kayholand_ it isn't just easy, it is natural to do what others are doing. When you go to lunch at work and nothing is particularly healthy by your standards, it takes a lot to be the only in your team or office, that says I am going to be the only one that brings tupperware in my bag from home and walks into the cafeteria with my own food, and takes my dirty tupperware back home. It takes planning, organisation and also a resistance to the need to "fit in". It is the way of the world. We live in a world that pushes the unhealthy, so majority will do what is unhealthy, not because they want to be, but because we live as social groups. If everyone in your friend group or your work group communicates using an app, and you don't use that app, it might be unhealthy for everyone using that app, but the everyday reality is you get left out.
More likely because the modern world is a busy world...
Everyone is constantly busy all the time and if we took a slow time around, we get behind in everything...
Job, education, life, pretty much everything...
It's more like the world forces us to continue going down the wrong path
Another great commentary from the beautiful Ms. Levine but for me, the title is the best part.
Great video Big Think :]
Quality content!
I’ve never heard someone use the word “actually” so much
wow, i didnt think i would learn that little in 10min
Very basic info
Nobody ever believes me, half Japanese on my mother's side. I always felt everyone just looked older due to lifestyle. But now, at 65, I'm still waiting on puberty 😂
is that you in the display pictyre? looks older than 65, imo.
Dr. Peter Attia claims the absolute most important thing for aging is exercising! Everything else although important is secondary! You gotta put in the work!
It's lifestyle and it's also mindset and state of mind. The latter contributes as well. When we hold a lot of emotional and mental stress in our body, it affects us physically which then leads to the importance of having a good and balanced lifestyle. We can choose the way we think and feel. It begins with the mind and it'll translate to our physical body.
I had no idea that there were ways to determine phenotypic age from simple blood test results, but seeing the free online calculators, I’m motivated to go see my doctor for a physical, get the lab work done, and see what my phenotypic age is, that seems like useful information.
I've been interested by this subject since I started my path on natural health practitioner. And yes lifestyle changes the way you look and feel SO MUCH. A person can be totally unknown to you if she's changed her lifestyle so much that you don't recognise her anymore after a few months only! But what I'm wondering is : if we can already do so much naturally (which is best for our bodies) why would we want to take pills to reverse aging so much ?
Lifestyle is problem madam today, 90% of global death is due to lifestyle, so plz dont joke
Because nature wants you dead
When it comes to exercise just do it. Don't purchase a gym membership, and expect to drive across town. It's a waste of time and money. Get yourself a good full-size blanket for doing crunches, sit-ups and floor exercises. Get some weights for doing presses and one can lay out on the bed. Get yourself a comfortable stationary bike for cardio exercises. Do it every day, and eat healthy.
For some folks, myself included, the energy and camaraderie of the gym is important to keeping a young mindset.
I really like the title of this video
Eat healthy, work out everyday and stay completely sober...got it.
MY GOD, this video takes forever to get to the point..you can start anti aging by NOT watching this video and saving that time...😊
🤣
😂
Your mental age is in large part a result of your physical age. If you don’t train your muscles / eat healthy you’ll age fast.
Just the same 'ol with a click bait title. Nothing to see here, folks, keep moving...
Advice? Tips? Anything? I was waiting for it but it never delivered
Well that was a lot of talking for nothing, it's basically a cell can only split so many times, it's cells aging and dying that makes us older.
Dr Levine looks amazing for 64.
Sunscreen
Sleep
Meditation (of some kind. Destressing basically)
Water
Healthy food full of antioxidants
Friends
Exercise
A pet if you can
No kids (see the destress)
A good skincare routine that includes Retin-A or a derivative
Not keeping up with the Jones’
Living below your means (not including poverty level folks. They deserve help)
Community service
That’s all I can think of 😂
Nothing is required. these are prescriptions by our science to make money
I used to think it was live fast die young, but I think its more accurate to say live fast and suffer horribly in your later years

Happy birthday

Thank you . I want to learn more. I want to live to be at least 150 years young.

Does your book give instructions on how to slow our aging process?
David Sinclair seems to be more adventurous in his advice to aging. Ie. Fasting, NMN supplement, Resveratrol, Metformin.
ah , i was introduced to him when he appeared as a guest on Huberman Lab Podcast
It's worth to google for the concepts of micromort and microlife.
Such an odd title. I don’t get it.
Woah, what a background!
For me it is not about how long im going to live, but how long can i actually enjoy life
I'm ancient at the age of 37 and I know it. I so wish I was smarter and better informed when I was younger. I just can't believe that I can do much to reverse what I've done to my body.
You're not old. Stop feeling sorry for yourself and take positive action. You'll feel better!
Literally not one single thing in this video that everyone doesn't already know. I didn't expect Big Think to use such clickbaity titles such as this.
I met the love of my life but our age gap was too much and he is getting too old 😢 I wish he could be young with me… and my parents and grand parents
Age is a state of mind - (though probably a good dose of genetics helps). you really _are_ as old, or young, as you feel (and act & behave (or not! ) - how you think, move, feel
I used to have lunch every week with a lovely older gentleman, (he moved away, be closer to family, lost contact over the years). he'd talk about the 'sad, OLD man' down the street from him. this "old" man was in his 60s - this delightful gentleman was in his 80s - so 20 years OLDER - but fit, and active, walked his precious dogs, gardened, enjoyed spending time with people, mourned his beloved wife, determined to make the most of life.
similar thing with one of my neighbours, he's frail (belligerent, but frail) - had a couple of falls, now needs a walker or scooter - I thought he was in his 90s, nope, only in his 60s.
I started going 'grey' when I was 12 - no, correct that - people - complete total strangers would tap me on the shoulder (usually seated behind me on the bus) and TELL ME - this started when I was 12 - (don't know actually when this process changed) - countless people, seriously, they would all say these exact same words each & every time "excuuuse me - do you know you've got grey hair" - (now, me, it's silver, sweetie, silver) -🧝🧝♀🧝♂
at high school, about 15 or 16, my english teacher devoted an entire year to the concept, the importance, of being childLIKE (not child_ish_ - very different) - child-like - finding joy, wonderful and beauty in simple every day things, living in the moment & appreciating the simple pleasures in life - being grateful & appreciative, playing and having fun, laughter, seeking happiness and joy
when I was in my 20s people thought I was in my 30s, but when I WAS in my 30s, people thought I was in my 20s - 🤷🤷♀🤷♂
now... I'm older, wiser, all that matters to me - so age, meh - do not care - does not define who I am, how I think - how I behave (or not, celebrating being 'naughty' last week, giggling with a woman who is chronologically much older than me, but in her eyes, see that mischievous twinkle & can't help but share the fun 'where are we at' 'no idea' _laughing_ at ourselves) in our community choir - singing & laughing & playing 🥳💖🧚🏊🤸♀🧘♀🤹♀🧞♀🤽♀🥂🛌💗👣🐾🌟🌀🔥🧩🪅🪄♥
Age is not a state of mind for people with dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, blindness, deafness, etc.
@@JakeRichardsong and what is your personal experience of all of the above?
are you talking from personal experience, or just listing a bunch of issues that can affect older people - again - what is your _personal_ experience
and I DO hope you are talking about _age related_ blindness and deafness -or are you implying someone with either is _LESS THAN_ because they are blind, or deaf - that their state of mind is somehow lacking???
so are you just listing a bunch of issues that can affect older people????
*i* can talk from *personal experience* of people I ACTUALLY KNOW -
@@juliaconnellwhat is he saying, is you can't beat dementia, is a serious disease.
and yes at certain age you can't do the same things you used to do
Woww..some time ago..i intuited that this is the case
Thanks for confirming😊
Managing stress is the hardest. It is not just one stressful situation, sometimes it two-three or even more. Meditation is great, however, it takes months to get results.
eat more magnesium

The best thing I did was quit alcohol - the binge drinking stopped and everything else fell into place.
Time is like this game of change delay that light created
My grandfather drank a case of Milwaukee’s Best a day, only ate salted meats and used to scold my grandmother for “leaving poop streaks in the toilet.” He died at age 64. I wish he had seen this video.
