This is a YouTube video titled "What Does Mark Hyman Eat? #shorts" containing a monologue by Mark Hyman from March 13, 2023, where he discusses his nutrition and exercise routines focused on longevity and healthy aging, including his Pegan diet, muscle-building shakes, and various physical activities.
What do I eat? Because I think nutrition is the cornerstone of longevity medicine is really above many of the other hallmarks, poor nutrition, not enough of the good stuff, too much of the bad stuff. So I follow what I call the Pegan diet, which is really a food is medicine approach. It's plant rich diet. It's high in phytochemicals. It's high in the right amount of protein for my body and age, which we need more as we get older to build muscle. I use my healthy aging shake pretty much for an hour of exercise to build muscle, and that's in the book, the Recipe for it's got goat whey and all kinds of other goodies, cocktails of things that are really powerful for up regulating my mitochondria, for building muscle. And so I encourage you to check that out. Exercise, what do I do for exercise? I mean, I wish I could do more. It's something I like to do more, but I probably do, you know, four to six days of aerobic training, probably half an hour interval training. I do different things. I do road biking, mountain biking, tennis, hiking, swimming. And then I use a strength training program that's based on Tom Brady's program, TB12, which I like because as I get older, you know, you can injure yourself with weights. And I use some weights, but not too much. But I use the bands and I can travel with them everywhere. And I do that three or four times a week for 30 minutes. And it's incredible the change I've seen in my body. I do hot yoga whenever I can get a hot yoga studio, vinyasa.
