His groundbreaking book Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity offers science-supported strategies for extending your lifespan and healthspan. In this recent article (click above to read), Dhruv Khullar recounts his memories of summers spent with his grandparents in New Delhi, witnessing their struggles with heart attacks, broken hips, and debilitating arthritis. This personal narrative questions whether such a decline is inevitable or preventable. In his book, Attia offers the solution: resistance training, healthy eating, proper sleep, and strong relationships, which can significantly improve your quality of life as you age. I love this book (and Khullar's article) for challenging the conventional view of aging and decline, proving that we can age powerfully into our 70s, 80s, and beyond with the right strategies. [Can You Slow Down Aging?]( Can you turn back the clock on aging? I believe you can—and so do other health pros like intermittent-fasting expert Dr. Mindy Pelz (who recently joined me in London for the Health Optimisation Summit) and longevity expert Dr. Alka Patel. Click the link above to learn our best tips for aging powerfully without spending a fortune. You'll learn about cold showers and saunas for boosting health, the benefits of resistance training, the ideal number of steps to support brain and heart health, and why boosting protein intake can improve metabolism and muscle health. For my contribution, I discuss the importance of quality sleep and my go-to nutrient for workout performance, brain health, and bone strength. This lively, informative article also reveals the secret of living 7.5 years longer and why enjoyment is key for aging powerfully.    [Akkermansia muciniphila Is a Promising Probiotic]( Your gut is home to trillions of microbes that help your digestion, immune system, weight, and overall health. Discovering new microbes gives researchers innovative ways to enhance weight loss, boost metabolism, and treat diseases. One promising microbe is Akkermansia muciniphila (A. muciniphila), which resides in your intestinal lining. Healthy people often have more A. muciniphila in their guts compared to obese individuals. One explanation why: this probiotic supports the production of GLP-1, a hormone regulating appetite and insulin levels, similar to drugs like Ozempic. Higher GLP-1 levels reduce hunger, enhance fat metabolism, and improve blood-sugar control. While we're still uncovering its full potential, research shows A. muciniphila can improve metabolic functions and immune responses and even aid cancer treatment. Early studies suggest it's safe and effective for human use, with ongoing research highlighting its potential for fat loss and metabolic optimization. Click the study above to learn more about this promising microbe and its benefits.    Love, JJ P.S. Pendulum Akkermansia contains 100 million AFU of a patented strain of A. muciniphila. This key probiotic makes up about 4% of intestinal bacteria in healthy people. By increasing this strain, Akkermansia strengthens your gut lining, improves digestion, and naturally increases production of GLP-1 to help manage hunger and cravings. You’ll get these and other benefits in just one capsule daily. Pendulum is the only brand offering this strain, which is safe, effective, and third-party tested.
