100 Years of Healthy Living?
Nobody wants to live to 100 and be sick, but what if we could live 100 healthy years?
I believe in lifestyle as medicine, and taking a holistic view of our health. The more I know about what's happening with my body, the more I can make lifestyle decisions to reverse my age (or at least stop premature aging).
π§ That includes insights into biomarkers (biological molecules in your cells, blood, other body fluids, and tissues) so we can track our health.
I signed up for Function Health, a new startup run by Dr. Mark Hyman (former Cleveland Clinic Functional Health Director), so I could get lab work that I otherwise would not have access to.
Traditional Western doctors will not order lab tests unless you're already experiencing symptoms for a problem. I would rather have insights about potential issues before they become problems.
I've got my first test results back and I already have major insights into ways to improve my health.
Hint: It was an experiment with my diet that didn't go well... :)
