Nitralis

Nitralis Might Be the Cure for High Blood Pressure

High blood pressure is the world’s leading cause of premature death. DoNotAge.org’s new Nitralis formula may offer a powerful, science-backed solution by restoring nitric oxide levels for better blood flow, oxygenation, and cardiovascular health. The Silent Killer: Why High Blood Pressure Is So Dangerous High blood pressure (hypertension) is often called the silent killer—and for good reason. It rarely shows symptoms until it’s too late, yet it’s the leading cause of death worldwide, contributing to millions of heart attacks, strokes, and cardiovascular events every year. Unless you check your health status regularly, you might not even know you’re at risk. That’s why routine health checkups, blood pressure monitoring, and longevity testing are so valuable—because what you don’t track, you can’t change. The good news? New longevity research is pointing...

Biohacks for Sleep

5 Biohacks for Better Sleep

A good night’s sleep isn’t a luxury. Instead, it’s one of the most powerful longevity tools you have. Sleep is when your body repairs tissues, balances hormones, consolidates memories, and resets your metabolism. Yet, millions of people struggle to get enough deep, restorative sleep. Often because modern lifestyles work against our biology. My Journey to Better Sleep I’ve tried a lot over the years to optimize my sleep. As a woman in my 40s, heading toward perimenopause and menopause, I’ve been eager to find the best ways to get quality rest and wake up refreshed. What I’ve learned is that sleep optimization doesn’t have to be complicated (or expensive). These are my five best biohacks for better sleep, and most of them are completely free, making them accessible...

oxidative stress

Understanding Oxidative Stress (and How to Counteract It)

We all age, but how we age depends largely on what happens at the cellular level. One key factor influencing this process is something called oxidative stress. This is a natural but potentially harmful process that occurs in every cell of your body. Think of oxidative stress as your body slowly “rusting” from the inside out. It’s a balance game between free radicals and antioxidants, and when that balance tips too far, damage begins to accumulate. This is affecting everything from your skin and energy levels to your risk of chronic disease. What Is Oxidative Stress? Oxidative stress happens when your body produces more free radicals (unstable molecules created during metabolism, exercise, or exposure to toxins) than your system can neutralize with antioxidants. A certain level of oxidative stress...

NMN Lawful in Dietary Supplements

NMN Is Back: Why This Longevity Molecule Matters More Than Ever

What Is NMN? NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) is a molecule naturally found in the body and in small amounts in foods like broccoli, edamame, and avocado. It’s a direct precursor to NAD+, a coenzyme that powers cellular energy, DNA repair, and overall health. As we age, NAD+ levels decline, which is linked to fatigue, slower recovery, metabolic issues, and age-related diseases. Supplementing with NMN helps restore NAD+ and support healthy aging at the cellular level. Benefits of NMN Supplementation Research on NMN is still emerging, but early studies and anecdotal evidence point to several potential benefits: - Increased energy & metabolism - Improved insulin sensitivity & blood sugar control - Enhanced DNA repair & cellular health - Better recovery & endurance for exercise - Potential brain-protective effects - Support for cardiovascular and vascular health For biohackers and...

Sunshine hormone

Vitamin D: The Sunshine Hormone Your Body Can’t Live Without

Why Vitamin D Matters More in Winter As the days grow shorter and darker, many of us get less exposure to the sun — the body’s primary source of Vitamin D. In Sweden, where I live, studies on the population have shown that around half of people have insufficient Vitamin D levels during the winter months. That’s one of the reasons I always supplement with Vitamin D when the sunlight is scarce. I even tested my levels last year, and they were optimal (as you can see in the image to the left). This thanks to supplementation and spending as much time as I can outdoors. Vitamin D Isn’t Just a Vitamin — It’s a Hormone Despite the name, Vitamin D isn’t actually a vitamin. Instead, it’s a fat-soluble...

Sirt6

Sirt6 Activator could be the key to slow down ageing

If you follow longevity research, you’ve probably heard the buzz around Sirt6. Sirt6 is a cellular “guardian” linked to DNA repair, metabolism, inflammation, and overall healthspan. The big question: can we safely activate SIRT6 in humans and move the needle on biological ageing? A new mouse study suggests the answer might be “yes,” and a randomized human trial is now underway to find out. What is SIRT6 and why do longevity scientists care? SIRT6 is a NAD+-dependent enzyme that helps maintain genome stability (think DNA repair, telomere integrity, and silencing of rogue DNA elements), while also influencing glucose/lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways. In multiple models, dialing SIRT6 up is associated with healthier ageing. In fact, genetic overexpression of SIRT6 has been shown to extend lifespan and reduce frailty...

Biohacks for Longer Life

5 Biohacks for a Longer Life

Do you ever wonder why some people seem to age slower, stay sharp longer, and radiate vitality well into their later years? The secret may lie in the way they treat their biology. Welcome to the world of biohacking — a modern approach to optimizing your health and extending your lifespan by using science, technology, and lifestyle shifts to “hack” your body’s natural systems. The term itself is a mix of biology and hacking, and it's about taking control of your own wellness journey. In this article, we’ll explore 5 powerful biohacks that are backed by science and easy to integrate into your life. From mastering your circadian rhythm to boosting cellular resilience with sauna and supplements — these are habits that can help you feel better...

Colostrum benefits

Colostrum: Nature’s First Superfood

As a biohacker, I’m always on the lookout for superfoods that can elevate my health. Colostrum is one of those rare finds. This nutrient-dense, first milk produced by mammals in the hours after birth has been revered across cultures for its powerful health benefits. Recently, colostrum has reemerged in the biohacking world as a powerful supplement for gut health, immunity, muscle repair, and more, thanks to its wealth of antibodies, growth factors, and immune-boosting nutrients. I’ve personally been using colostrum (in powder form) for around three years now, and it’s one of the supplements I feel truly great on. It helps me feel stronger, more resilient, and more grounded. Especially when it comes to digestion and immune function. But here’s the strange part: despite its incredible...

health tests longevity

The Health Tests I Take Regularly (And What They’ve Taught Me)

Even though I consider myself healthy, I believe in taking a proactive approach to my well-being. That includes doing regular health tests to check my current status and see if my lifestyle or nutrition needs adjusting to better support my body. These tests are part of my long-term health optimization and longevity plan. They help me understand how my body works, so I can give it what it needs to thrive, not just survive. Because it’s better to be foresightful than reactive. I’d rather know how I’m doing now than wait until something’s off and be told I should’ve acted sooner. Here’s a look at the health tests I do regularly and what they’ve revealed. These are by no means something you have to do to stay...

Epigenetics Lifestyle

You’re Not Just Your Genes: Why Epigenetics Could Be the Key to Longevity

For years, I thought my DNA held all the cards when it came to how I’d age. But the more I've learned about epigenetics, it has become my tool to empower myself because it shows that lifestyle choices play a more important role than most people realize. Sure, our genes determine the blueprint but they do not determine how that blueprint will be expressed. That’s where epigenetics comes in and that’s where we have influence. What is Epigenetics? Epigenetics refers to changes in gene expression that do not modify DNA sequence. Instead, it’s like flipping switches on or off, telling your body which genes to activate, and which to quiet down. These switches can be influenced by lifestyle factors. So everything from nutrition and sleep to exercise, stress,...
