We NEED Meaning And Purpose To Achieve Optimal Health #shorts

What are the things that are causing biological aging? Well, the first and the most important thing is controlled by what we eat. The scientists talk about this as a disrupted nutrient signaling. So what does that mean? Your body is really smart and it's learned how to deal with scarcity, with adversity. And so you have these pathways that sense the amount of food in your diet, the kind of food in your diet. And these pathways are, I call them longevity switches, because they're really meta. They're almost more important than all the others sort of longevity hallmarks. They're really above everything because they help us to so understand what happens to all these others. So all these other hallmarks are influenced by our diet. And so these four longevity switches that we talked about as part of the dysregulated nutrient sensing are one is insulin signaling. If you've ever listened to any of my stuff, you know, I talk a lot about blood sugar and insulin as a big driver of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, dementia, pretty much all age related diseases, kidney disease, high blood pressure, all of it. So too much sugar and starch overloads this pathway and causes to age. Now we need some insulin and we need good insulin signaling. But when it's too much is when we get in trouble.
