When I took my yearly biological age test from GlycanAge, I expected to see small improvements. I’ve been consistent with my health habits for years, but I also live a real life with work, stress, relationships, travel etc What I didn’t expect was this: At 41 years old, my biological age came back as 29. That result didn’t happen overnight. And it didn’t come from one supplement, one diet, or one biohack. It’s the outcome of years of small, repeatable habits that work with my biology instead of against it. In this article, I want to explain: • how the GlycanAge test works • what my results actually mean • how I live day-to-day to support healthy aging • what my results revealed about my genetics • and what I’m adjusting going...

You can’t out-exercise a bad diet. What you eat every day has a greater impact on your longevity than almost any other factor. In this article we will show you 12 foods that are packed with nutrients that help combat inflammation, oxidative stress, and cellular decline — the true root causes of aging. You Can’t Outrun a Bad Diet We live in a time where convenience often outweighs nutrition. Our modern food environment is full of ultra-processed products, refined seed oils, artificial additives, and lab-made chemicals — things our body simply doesn’t recognize. Over time, these compounds disrupt hormones, damage mitochondria, and accelerate aging at the cellular level. You’ve probably heard the saying, “You can’t out-exercise a bad diet.” It’s true. Movement is vital, but what you eat...

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...

Bone broth has been a staple in ancestral kitchens across cultures for centuries — and for good reason. People made nourishing broths with healing compounds by simmering bones, herbs, and vegetables for hours before protein powders and multivitamins flooded our shelves. Bone broth is currently experiencing a well-earned renaissance, not only in kitchens but also in functional medicine, wellness regimens, and biohacking communities. Rich in collagen, minerals, and amino acids, it promotes immunity, skin resilience, joint strength, gut health, and even better sleep. As someone who’s deeply invested in longevity and nourishment from the inside out, I make my own bone broth regularly. It’s simple, grounding, and one of the easiest ways to give your body deep, foundational support. What is Bone Broth? Bone broth is a nutrient-rich liquid...

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...

Why Hydration Is About More Than Just Water

We’ve all been told to “drink more water” and yes, staying hydrated is essential. But if you’ve ever done everything “right” and still felt tired, foggy or dealt with cramps after a workout, there’s a good chance you were missing a key piece of the hydration puzzle: electrolytes. To be honest, I wasn't aware of this part until just a couple of years ago. It wasn’t until I started experimenting with intermittent fasting and training more consistently that I realized how much hydration goes beyond just water. Most people think hydration is just about getting enough fluids. But true hydration also depends on having the right balance of minerals - especially sodium, potassium, and magnesium - to help your body absorb and use the water you...

Most people know that fats are essential for overall health, but did you know that the balance between Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids plays an essential role in inflammation, heart health and even brain function? A study published in the International Journal of Cancer found that higher levels of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids are associated with a reduced risk of 14 different cancers, including colon, stomach, and lung cancers. It's time that we become aware of this and start to balancing our Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. Unfortunately, modern diets filled with ultra-processed foods have dramatically shifted the good ratio between these fatty acids and this is affecting our well-being in a negative way.

When it comes to aging well, people usually pay much attention to the internal factors that are within our control: diet, how much exercise we get and how much sleep we have. But they rarely consider that skin longevity is also crucial for overall longevity. The skin is the largest organ of the body and serves as the first line of defense against the environment. A good skin longevity protocol can help to maintain elasticity, hydration and resilience of the skin for years. I’ve spent years refining my own skin protocol for longevity, combining science-backed skincare, lifestyle habits, and targeted treatments to support healthy, youthful skin. Below, I’ll walk you through my routine and explain why these strategies work. My Skin Longevity Routine Morning & Evening: Mythos Women’s...
