Alzheimer’s is still largely thought of as a disease of old age, but the biological changes that set the stage for cognitive decline often begin in your 20s and 30s.

If you want to protect your brain, you can start now:

• Prioritize sleep
• Exercise daily
• Control blood sugar
• Reduce ultra processed foods

A person's potential for success is likely proportional to:
ㅤ
- Their willingness to embarrass themselves in front of others
- Their ability to have difficult conversations
- Their understanding of their own limitations

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Our highest loyalty doesn’t belong to people or parties. It belongs to principles.

If you wouldn’t accept it from the “other side,” you shouldn’t accept it from yours.

Integrity is upholding your values even when your own group violates them.

[Mark Hyman, M.D. @drmarkhyman]

The future of medicine isn't found in a pill bottle. It's found in what you put on your plate, how you move your body, the quality of your sleep, and your ability to manage stress.

It's about understanding that your body is a self-healing, self-regulating organism when you give it what it needs and remove what harms it.

Most chronic diseases — heart disease, diabetes, autoimmune conditions, even dementia — are not inevitable consequences of aging. They're consequences of the toxic food system, environmental exposures, chronic stress, and a medical system that waits until you're sick to intervene.

But your body wants to be healthy. When you remove the bad stuff and give it the good stuff, healing happens naturally.

That's not "alternative medicine." That's just good medicine. The future Edison envisioned is here. And YOU have the power to create it for yourself, starting today.

A controversial scientific paper that claimed the weed killer glyphosate (brand name Roundup) "does not pose a health risk to humans" has been formally retracted 25 years after publication due to serious ethical concerns around industry manipulation.

Never put plastic in the microwave. The chemicals in the plastic are not bound to the plastic. Once heated, the chemicals will leech out of the plastic and get into your food, says Dr. Shanna Swan.

You will be eating BPA, plasticizers and phthalates.

Plastic water bottles in your hot car, same thing.

Stop wasting your time on these 6 things:

1. Worrying about other people’s opinions
2. Judging other people
3. Putting things off to the future
4. Holding onto the past
5. Arguing with reality
6. Thinking you are going to live forever

An 85-year Harvard study found the #1 predictor of long-term health and happiness wasn’t diet, wealth, or even genetics.

It was the quality of their relationships.

Community really is the ultimate medicine for the body and brain.

[Mark Hyman, M.D. @drmarkhyman]

If you want to age fast, eat sugar and carbs. And I mean refined sugar and carbs like flour. The single biggest thing you can do to reduce the rate of aging is to cut those things out of your diet.

Because they drive inflammation, belly fat, they screw up your gut bacteria, they feed cancer cells, they cause metabolic dysfunction, they cause cancer, heart diabetes dementia you name it.

It’s simple: If you want to do extraordinary things, you have to be willing to lose the approval of ordinary people.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

You don’t need more. You need less of what doesn’t matter.

[Mark Hyman, M.D. @drmarkhyman]

A systematic review of 128,119 people found that exercise is as effective as antidepressants for reducing depression and anxiety.

Movement is a scientifically proven prescription for a healthier mind.

Stop comparing yourself to people who have more. @chasejarvis

Have you asked yourself these questions?

[Mark Hyman, M.D. @drmarkhyman]

We're living in a nutritional wasteland where processed food consumption keeps rising year after year... but we're also living through the greatest food awakening in history.

Every wholesome choice you make today is an act of rebellion against a system designed to keep you sick.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

Luck doesn’t just happen, it’s created. You can do things to increase the odds of serendipity.

Meeting more people makes you lucky. Learning more skills makes you lucky. Being willing to fail makes you lucky. Offering to help others more often makes you lucky.

Everything is a test.

[Mark Hyman, M.D. @drmarkhyman]

A healthy body doesn’t need a doctor. A sick system does.

The goals of doctors should be to make ourselves (and medications) obsolete from your lives; not permanent fixtures in them.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

Happiness requires struggle. Without struggle, the world would lack meaning and our joys would feel empty.
ㅤ
Be grateful for your struggles, because within them is the constant opportunity for purpose.
