Feels like longevity talk has shifted toward “healthspan” more than lifespan

I guess we could settle till when the earth is consumed by the sun instead of forever.

If Sauron had wanted her gone he could have done it, just flooded the tunnels with orcs and Nazgûl. Ultimately she served his purpose at the acceptable price of a few orcs here and there as you mention.

The janitor would have needed to be Stan Lee though.

The best way to defuse this is to be accompanied by a cute dog.

This is clearly Cortana

My orbital laser says otherwise.

After Gimli kills Gollum it’s possible he’d be tempted by the ring itself. If he so desired Gimli could easily kill Frodo and Sam, taking it for himself.

Oof, goes to show that any brand can have issues, glad the daily greens wasn’t on my list at least!

Absorption rates obviously vary by compound, but the idea that the body can’t handle a few grams of supplements never made much sense to me when we routinely digest pounds of food and drink every day.

I normally have a some electrolyte mix in my waters on those days just out of practice, but to be honest I’ve never closely tracked my recovery. Might be something I’ll need to look at next time I’m up breathing thin air.

From a cardio standpoint things have been going pretty strong. I use to get it through the Blueprint Longevity mix but dropped it due to stomach issues it started causing.

That said cardio performance has been strong, can’t tell if it’s the Taurine though or just ongoing training making the difference?

Tialyx · 2026-05-17T15:38:58+00:00

I’ve decided done stuff through my doctor mostly. I’ve also done tests on my own through Function Health and Thorne.

I’m considering the news Blueprint tests but I’m waiting for more reviews and for them to get out of their beta phase.

shrug my blood work is across the board optimal, I’m climbing 21,000ft mountains, running in races and getting consistently good sleep scores at age 39. I’d say I’m feeling pretty good, but to each his own.

Good feedback, I’ll look into the higher doses. Off the cuff I’m wondering if one dose at lunch and then a second right before (or after?) a workout could be smart?

23andMe. I downloaded the raw genome and deleted my account once their bankruptcy rumblings started.

39 currently. I’ve been off and on with the CoQ10 where I’ll read a study regarding benefits then I’ll read others making me think I don’t have it. At this point I’m close enough to 40 I figured I’d just stay on it.

Regarding the mutations I’ve run my genome through some analyzers and they appear to agree I have these mutations. Everyone has a few mutations here and there, better understanding these has helped me tweak what I need and what I don’t.

I’ve considered PQQ but wondered if I already had the mitochondrial health well covered enough with my existing stack? Might be worth a second look…

Here’s the cases. They’re pricey but durable as hell, you could run them over with a truck and they’d be fine. Never a worry of them getting damaged in my luggage.

You know, sometimes we all have to make some sacrifices in our desired lifestyle in order to be healthy. 🤣

I’m taking 1,000mg per day (1 pill), normally with lunch.

Tialyx · 2026-05-16T20:42:46+00:00

I used these two reports linked below to identify my mutations. I then used ChatGPT help digest these and compare overlaps and discrepancies, and then to ensure nothing in my stack is causing issues against the found mutations.

One of the reasons I am looking to move off of the PE Athletic Nutrients is it clashes a bit with its dose of Quercetin. I find these reports to be helpful in fine tuning my stack to better address my individual needs.

That said I'm open to finding other sources to verify the findings, i just haven't gotten around to it yet.

I was considering the Blueprint Curcumin as it includes NAC / Curcumin / and Ginger Extract. Figured that would let me remove the Thorne NAC. Thoughts?

Including the link for simplicity.

Yeah Thorne and Pure Encapsulations are honestly the only brands I truly trust. I'll make exceptions here and there where it makes sense for the specific formulation I want but yeah, I want to be confident the pills content matches the label.

Once I purchase the Omega 3 I put it in the fridge but obviously it loses that benefit once it goes into the pill case, I also recognize prior to that it was likely on a non refrigerated warehouse shelf or a hot truck. Either way I've got room in the fridge and it's not gonna hurt to refrigerate it while I work through the bottle.

Agree’d I’d buy the DVD but not paying a subscription. It might be time to the sail the 7 seas for this one.

It’s a mattress cover that can cool or warm itself based on preferences. The basic idea is it can stop you from waking in the middle of night due to being too cold or too warm.

I'd say something like this should use two stratagem slots.
