We had the unique opportunity to interview Dr. Mel Koelling, a seasoned expert in the Christmas tree industry. With Christmas season on the horizon, there is no better time to learn about the fascinating world of Christmas tree farming and interesting stories.About Dr. Mel Koelling and Tannenbaum FarmsMel and his wife, Lori, have been growing thousands of trees annually at Tannenbaum Farms in Central Michigan. With over three decades of experience in the Department of Forestry at Michigan State University, Mel's expertise is nationally acknowledged in the Christmas tree industry. His passion for the industry transpired in 1977 when he purchased land, initially as an extension of his professional interest and to establish a college fund for his children.Today, their plantings spread over almost 100 acres of their 180-acre farm. Every year, season after season, they strive to perfect the art and subdue the challenges of growing Christmas trees.The History and Tradition of Christmas TreesMel delves into the historical events and accounts which trace back to the use of greenery and conifers by ancient cultures, recognizing their unique properties that defy natural processes during winter. This appreciation for the constant green throughout the year carried through the centuries, evolving into celebratory and traditional uses, eventually establishing the beloved tradition of Christmas trees.Noteworthy was Martin Luther's fondness for fir trees. Luther, the famous monk known for his 95 Theses, is credited with one of the first observances of using a Christmas tree during the winter celebrations. The tradition gradually spread to other parts of Germany, the UK, and then to the shores of America, becoming an inherent symbol of Christmas.Experiences and Memories at Tannenbaum FarmsStorytelling is a significant part of the Christmas tree industry and Dr. Koelling shares many delightful narratives based on his years of growing and selling Christmas trees. The passion and joy of working in this industry as witnessed in his recounting of the family gathered to choose a perfect tree and the sense of satisfaction, he draws from contributing to their Christmas celebrations are truly noteworthy.Environmental Aspects of Christmas Tree FarmingWhen questioned about the supposedly negative environmental effects of Christmas tree farming, Dr. Koelling's perspective is both balanced and enlightening. While acknowledging the fuel and resources used in tree farming, he also points out the positive aspects such as soil conservation, supporting local economies, and enhancing wildlife landscapes.The Future of Real Christmas TreesMel is very optimistic about the future of real Christmas trees. He sees them as a lasting memory and a tradition that has endured through the ages. Outside of the economic advantages of the industry, he believes the "warm and fuzzy" moments that Christmas trees bring to homes during the holiday season will continue to make them an inherent part of the Christmas celebration.In conclusion, cultivating Christmas trees is both an art and a science that requires passion and dedication. It is a labor of love that aids in keeping a cherished tradition alive, whilst contributing positively to the environment and the local economy. Moreover, it creates precious memories for families across the world during the festive season, thus making it an industry of joy and giving.The National Christmas Tree Promotion BoardAn encore remix presentation Time Line00:00 Introduction to The Garden Question Podcast00:35 Meet the Host and the Christmas Season02:06 Exploring the History of Christmas Trees04:08 The Story of Martin Luther and the Christmas Tree05:47 The Spread of Christmas Tree Tradition in the U.S.07:30 Dr. Mel Koelling's Personal Christmas Tree Stories10:51 Dr. Mel Koelling's Journey into Forestry and Christmas Tree Farming16:53 The Evolution of the Christmas Tree Industry20:59 The Rise of Choose and Cut Christmas Tree Farms24:36 The National Christmas Tree Association and Promotion Board26:14 How to Select the Perfect Christmas Tree29:45 Proper Care for Your Christmas Tree31:29 Innovative Tools for Tree Watering32:12 Ideal Conditions for Displaying Your Tree32:43 Disposing of Your Tree After the Season34:33 The Reality of Christmas Tree Shortages35:08 Memorable Moments in the Tree Purchasing Process39:49 The Environmental Impact of Christmas Trees42:12 The Economic Contributions of Christmas Trees44:34 The Lifespan and Disposal of Artificial Trees48:59 Learning from Mistakes in Tree Growing52:06 The Future of Real Christmas Trees52:24 Creating Lasting Christmas Memories53:55 Conclusion and Thanks
Show Notes for Episode Twenty-Six of seX & whY: Sex and Gender Differences in Aging Host: Jeannette Wolfe Guest: Sara Haag Dr Haag is a researcher in molecular epidemiology who studies human biological aging at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm. Background - Dr Haag has a PhD in functional genomics and Post Doc in genetic and molecular epidemiology. She studies telomeres and molecular association with telomere length, she also has experience in molecular biology and computer science. Definitions and discussion points from podcast Geroscience - a new field of biomedical science that looks at how the molecular, genetic, and cellular mechanisms associated with the aging process itself may interact and even trigger many diseases associated with aging. This research provides a different angle for potential intervention to enhance health and longevity. Life Span - time between birth and death. Heath Span - time within life span of good health. Frailty Index and Clinical Frailty Scale are tools that evaluate a patient's overall physical conditioning and their vulnerability to certain adverse outcomes including falls, increased care requirements, hospital admission, and mortality. Epigenetics - the study of how DNA expression can be modified by behavior or environmental factors (versus alteration in the actual DNA itself). One way I think of this is to imagine a huge library full of books, and that each book represents a gene coded from our DNA- epigenetics help determine which books get pulled off the shelfs and get read or pushed back deeper into the shelfs. This process is different than buying new books for the library (which would be equivalent to changing the DNA itself.) Aging Scales - as different elements of the body age differently, there is not a gold standard to measure aging. Dr Haag recently published a study that evaluated a bunch of these different scales and determined that the “ideal” scale will vary dependent upon what you are studying- such as overall function or the biological aging of a specific organ (i.e. heart or liver). Two major theories of aging: Senescence theory of aging - the belief that with age, cellular systems due to repeat exposure to intracellular and extracellular stressors, eventually start to malfunction and breakdown. Things start slowly falling apart due to wear and tear. Programmed theory of aging - Aging is an innate active process which is highly regulated by an internal time clock. As the field of Geroscience and epigenetics evolves, the “truth” around aging is likely to be a combo of both theories. Sex Differences Hormones Estrogen Dr Haag talked about research involving telomere length (telomeres are the cap of the chromosome and they help protect the chromosomes from damage.) Typically, telomeres shorten with repeated division in somatic cells and when they shrink to a certain length the cell is more vulnerable to error and damage. Females have longer telomere length at birth compared to males and there is evidence that women with longer exposure to estrogen have longer telomeres. Testosterone Here is the Korean Eunuch study mentioned in the podcast. The researchers examined a genealogical record of 385 eunuchs and compared their life span to several other groups of men who lived during the same time periods including a bunch of kings. They found that the average life span of a eunuch was 70 which was 15-19 years longer than the comparison groups. One theory behind this difference in longevity is “the disposable soma theory”. This postulates that in males there is competition between two different intrinsic systems - somatic aging and reproduction- and that as both systems require significant energy to maintain, when energy is diverted to one system the other suffers. Sex Chromosomes In females each cell has two X chromosomes. In female cells, one of the X chromosomes is typically inactivated so that some cells have genes expressed that are inherited by their father, while others express genes inherited from their mother. Complicating this further is that several genes do not fully inactivate that second X chromosomes so that females may have an “extra” expression of some genes. A concrete example of this is the gene Toll like receptor 7 which codes for proteins that helps the immune system recognize the early invasion of certain types of viruses. As this gene doesn't undergo X inactivation, it may give females an extra boost in warding off certain types of viral infections. With aging there can be “skewing” of the X chromosome in that females may have a disproportionate percentage of cells that express the X chromosomes of a single parent. As male cells age, some may actually lose their Y chromosome. This news release suggests that his may happen relatively frequently as their work implied that 40% of all 70-year-olds had cellular evidence of it. The loss of Y chromosome can be associated with Alzheimer's and heart disease in males. Take home points: 1) The field of aging is absolutely exploding. Someday it may be possible to actively manipulate epigenetic signaling to slow or even reverse aging processes. 2) Different biological processes in our bodies age at different rates. Plus, if you follow a group of people over time, as they get older there will be greater and greater differences within that group in their markers of aging. 3) In aging research, there has historically been two different camps- the senescence camp, and the programmed theory one. In the senescence camp is the belief that as we age, things just start breaking down due to natural wear and tear. This contrasts with the programmed theory camp which believes that aging is a pre-designed active process that is triggered with age. The “truth” likely is a combination of both theories with epigenetics being the bridge. 4) Sex differences in aging include the mortality-morbidity paradox in that although females tend to have poorer health and greater fragility risk, males still tend to die sooner. 5) Sex differences with aging may include changes in the X chromosome with increased skewing and even the loss of the expression of the Y chromosome, both of which can be associated with an increase of health-related issues. Thanks for listening. May you be well (and curious). Jeannette.

BUFFALO, NY- November 22, 2023 – A new #researchpaper was #published in Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 15, Issue 21, entitled, “Antibiotics that target mitochondria extend lifespan in C. elegans.” Aging is a continuous degenerative process caused by a progressive decline of cell and tissue functions in an organism. It is induced by the accumulation of damage that affects normal cellular processes, ultimately leading to cell death. It has been speculated for many years that mitochondria play a key role in the aging process. In this new study, researchers Gloria Bonuccelli, Darren R. Brooks, Sally Shepherd, Federica Sotgia, and Michael P. Lisanti from the University of Salford aimed to characterize the implications of mitochondria in aging using Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) as an organismal model. The C. elegans were treated with a panel of mitochondrial inhibitors and assessed for survival. “In our study, we assessed survival by evaluating worm lifespan, and we assessed aging markers by evaluating the pharyngeal muscle contraction, the accumulation of lipofuscin pigment and ATP levels.” Their results show that treatment of worms with either doxycycline, azithromycin (inhibitors of the small and the large mitochondrial ribosomes, respectively), or a combination of both, significantly extended median lifespan of C. elegans, enhanced their pharyngeal pumping rate, reduced their lipofuscin content and their energy consumption (ATP levels), as compared to control untreated worms, suggesting an aging-abrogating effect for these drugs. Similarly, DPI, an inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I and II, was capable of prolonging the median lifespan of treated worms. On the other hand, subjecting worms to vitamin C, a pro-oxidant, failed to extend C. elegans lifespan and upregulated its energy consumption, revealing an increase in ATP level. “Therefore, our longevity study reveals that mitochondrial inhibitors (i.e., mitochondria-targeting antibiotics) could abrogate aging and extend lifespan in C. elegans.” DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.205229 Corresponding authors - Michael P.

Host: Andrew Wilner, MD, FACP, FAAN Guest: Carri Polick, PhD, RN Two recent studies linked childhood stress and stressors experienced across the lifespan to the severity of multiple sclerosis (MS) symptoms. In fact, both childhood and adult stressors were associated with MS disability and the so-called invisible symptoms of pain interference and psychiatric morbidity while only adult stressors were related to relapse burden. Joining Dr. Andrew Wilner to discuss these findings and how they may shift our approach to caring for patients with MS is Dr. Carri Polick, a postdoctoral fellow and VA scholar in the Duke National Clinician Scholars Program.

I recorded this episode in Delhi - what a time to record! We started with the impact of AQI on lifespan & talk about the impact of pincode on your lifespan. Longevity feels like a field where you need to spend a ton of time in research but Alex shared his views on how we can get started with a lot less. It was interesting to get his thoughts on how young people are approaching the field & the progress we've already made. The contribution of Age1 has been quite phenomenal in the field & their dedication to help more people get started. I've a lot of homework to do in the field & I find it quite exciting. I hope this episode can convince you to get started as well. Here's a good place to start reading in case you're curious: https://www.timeinitiative.org/resources

About six months ago, I embarked on a personal journey that brought the concept of healthspan to the forefront of my life.I had the privilege of consulting with Dr. Jeffrey Galvin, a former fraternity brother turned Air Force trauma doctor turned concierge medicine friend from Charlotte.What followed were two days of comprehensive health assessments that I had never experienced before.The battery of tests included bloodwork, genetic and epigenetic testing, fitness assessments, and even neurocognitive evaluations.It was a deep dive into my physical well-being, a holistic approach to understanding my health.One of the core lessons I learned from this experience was that It's about changing your body composition. Dr. Galvin set a goal for me – lose 20 pounds of fat and gain 10 pounds of muscle to improve my health.The results were astonishing, almost unbelievable. I'm sharing this journey not to boast about personal achievements but to inspire others to take their healthspan into their own hands.We all want to live our best lives, and we all deserve to enjoy our years on this Earth to the fullest.Tune in to this longer 5-minute Friday for a detailed account of my experience, results, and all the important lessons I have picked.Key Takeaways- Healthspan vs. Lifespan (00:37)- A personal transformation (06:33)- Body composition matters (08:28)- A new lease on life (12:23)- The mental-physical connection (14:48)Additional Resources

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Inner Edison podcast! In today's episode, we have the privilege of diving into the world of weight loss and transformation with our special guest, Alan Thomas. He is here to share his insights and experiences on the challenges and triumphs of shedding excess weight. Throughout our conversation, Alan emphasizes the crucial role that diet plays in one's overall health and well-being. He firmly believes that exercise alone cannot outweigh the negative effects of poor dietary choices. Alan draws a connection between being overweight and the detrimental impact it has on health, lifespan, and even one's potential for success. As we delve into Alan's personal journey, he reveals the pivotal moment during the pandemic that prompted him to pursue his transformational business full-time. His decision to commit to his goals parallels the commitment one must make to consistent exercise. Alan challenges listeners to prioritize their health and find time for physical activity, regardless of their individual circumstances. In our discussion, Alan shares real-life scenarios from his coaching experience, including a compelling example of a client who had never been on a diet before. Through a thought-provoking question, the client is challenged to make dietary changes for the sake of his family's safety, leading to a profound transformation. Alan's own struggles with weight, as well as the emotional toll it can take, provide powerful insights into the journey of weight loss. He discusses the impact of carrying extra weight on relationships, self-esteem, and even finances. However, Alan firmly believes that small, habitual tasks can pave the way for significant changes and accomplishments. Join us as we explore Alan's transformative approach to weight loss, his Rethink dieting program, and the importance of changing our mindset when it comes to our health.

Welcome back to Season 6! You might've noticed that we changed the name of the show to more accurately reflect the focus, which is to explore the transition from midlife to old age. [B]OLDER seemed a bit too general, so it's now [B]OLD AGE. Given our ageist society, it requires [b]oldness to say proudly, "I am old." This season our goal is to be even more honest and vulnerable about what it's like as the clock ticks away.For this first episode, Debbie is joined by her husband, Sam Harrington, a popular recurring guest who is known for his dry humor. He's a retired physician and an author.They start by talking about how aging has suddenly accelerated for both of them, in their early 70s. Sam says he can see his telomeres fraying when he looks in the mirror. He notes that only a decade ago they still looked remarkably young in photos. (See photo accompanying this episode; in 2014 Debbie and Sam were hanging out in Madagascar with lemurs.)//////////Don't miss the Behind The Scenes for every episode in Debbie's [B]OLD AGE newsletter. Leave a comment or question on Substack and she promises to respond.//////////They also talk about the long vigil of accompanying a dying parent and how that affects your own sense of old age; how health span has noticeably increased in the past 50 years; and what the stunning demographic shift to an aging society will mean. By 2030, there will be more adults over 65 than children under 18. Debbie notes the parallel between the acceleration of aging and the acceleration of global warming. At first the changes are slow and hardly noticeable. Then they happen all at once, like this past summer.But the conversation veers back to the physiological fact of aging. Sam's favorite mantra is that "80 might be the new 60, but 86 is the new 85." The current research to better understand and to slow aging may be too late to benefit them, Sam says.

Since turning 40 over 7 years ago I've realized that my training priorities have to change. I've been talking more about the concept of Riding For A Lifetime to help give those new priorities a name. I've decided to change the focus of my podcast to focus on these new priorities and have renamed it the Riding For A Lifetime Podcast. With it I'll be sharing training advice and interviewing experts in the field of improving performance while also improving your “healthspan”. I got this idea from reading Peter Atia, who is a longevity doctor that recently came out with a book called Outlive that looks at the concept of both “lifespan” and “healthspan”. Lifespan is how long you live, healthspan is how well you are able to keep doing the things you enjoy as you age. Having to quit doing what you love at some point because of age and/ or injuries is a terrible way to spend your later years. In the book he talked about training today for what you will need as you get older. It was an interesting thought experiment that got me thinking about some of the things I've changed and how they apply to this concept. Here are 3 things that the 40+ rider needs to have in their training program that may not directly relate to improving your MTB performance but will help you age in a way that will support your performance as you get older. - Hypertrophy/ Bodybuilding Training. A frustrating fact of life is that eventually you hit a point where your body starts to decline. No matter what you do you can't avoid it completely so you need to do something to slow the process. One of the worst things to happen is called sarcopenia, which is a fancy term for muscle loss. At a certain point, maintaining your muscle mass becomes extremely important in helping you maintain optimal function. This is why building muscle as a reserve against this future loss and working to maintain it as long as possible is vital. For a sport where athletes are usually trying to minimize muscle gain it sounds counterintuitive to tell a mountain biker that they need to add muscle and train like a bodybuilder, but this is exactly what I advise the 40+ year old rider does. This is one of the biggest contrasts in how a young pro would want to train and how an older hobbyist wants to train and why you may be missing out if you don't take this into account. I have a post about Why Mountain Bikers Should (Sometimes) Train Like Bodybuilders where I tell you how to incorporate hypertrophy training into your routine. And no, adding some muscle won't kill your performance. In fact, for a lot of riders it will actually help them increase their strength and add some “armor” for when they crash. - Running & Jumping/ Power Training. As I've aged I've realized how important it is to maintain your ability to run and jump. Power is another thing that goes with age and, just like muscle mass, you want to build a reserve against future loss and fight to maintain what you have. Running and jumping are also the most basic power exercises you can do and help to maintain a sense of athleticism that is important as you age. Something as simple as doing 3-5 sets of 3-5 short sprints (10 yards), broad jumps or vertical jumps as part of your workout can help a lot with maintaining power and athleticism. - Breathing. In the book Outlive Peter refers to how important breathing is to moving properly while maintaining stability. Stability is another thing that we lose as we age and having proper core function is the key to avoiding it. And breathing properly is the key to proper core function. At its most basic level, proper breathing simply means to use your diaphragm to drive your breathing. If you don't do this then you are using other muscles that are supposed to be used for bracing and moving. This dysfunction is something that you can usually get away with when you're younger but really starts to become a problem as you age. Overuse injuries from years of bad movement start to crop up, with low back pain being one of the most common. Making sure you are breathing optimally and applying that breathing to your workouts and riding is a key component of being able to ride for a lifetime. While we like to say that age is just a number, the truth is that it is more than that. Your body does start to decline as you get older and it isn't just in your head. Understanding what these changes are and how you can best minimize their effects is an important part of being able to live longer and enjoy life as you do. Until next time… Ride Strong, James Wilson MTB Strength Training Systems p.s. As you can see, there are some differences between how a 40+ year old rider should train and what you see being shared on social media by pro riders in their 20's. Sure, it isn't as fun and sexy as jumping up onto a giant pile of boxes or doing some crazy stuff that looks like your training for the circus but if you want to see results as an older rider you can't follow those fitness trends. What you need is a program like my 40+ MTB Rider Training Program. In it you'll find exactly what you need to improve your strength, cardio and mobility in a safe, sustainable way. It incorporates the best training methods I have come across for the 40+ year old rider into a program that you won't find anywhere else. You can click here to learn more and get your copy today. It is guaranteed to help you or I'll refund your money. So don't wait, click the link above and get started on your journey to enjoying riding even more.

Thanks for listening to another edition of the Handyman Pros Radio Show. Our Goal: To Help you save time, money, and aggravation on your home maintenance and repair. When it comes to your home, there's no denying that some parts age more gracefully than others. While we'd all love for our homes to remain in pristine condition indefinitely, the reality is that various components have finite lifespans. Understanding the expected lifespan of different home components can help you plan for maintenance, replacements, and renovations. In this blog post, we'll explore the anticipated life of several key home components and offer tips on how to extend their longevity. Roofing: o Expected lifespan: 20-30 years (asphalt shingles), 50+ years (metal or tile) The roof is your home's first line of defense against the elements. Asphalt shingles are the most common roofing material, and they typically last around 20-30 years. However, metal or tile roofs can far outlast this estimate, often exceeding 50 years or more with proper care. Tip: Regular roof inspections and maintenance can help identify and address issues early, prolonging your roof's life. Windows: o Expected lifespan: 20-30 years (vinyl), 30-50 years (wood) The lifespan of your windows can vary depending on the material. Vinyl windows are popular for their durability and typically last around 20-30 years. Wooden windows, when well-maintained, can endure for 30-50 years or even longer. Tip: Keep windows clean, repaint wooden frames as needed, and repair or replace seals to prevent drafts. HVAC System: o Expected lifespan: 15-25 years Your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system play a crucial role in maintaining indoor comfort. Proper maintenance and timely repairs can extend its life, but most HVAC systems will need replacement after 15-25 years. Tip: Regularly replace air filters, schedule annual HVAC inspections, and consider upgrading to a more energy-efficient system. Plumbing: o Expected lifespan: 20-50 years (depending on material) Plumbing materials, such as copper, galvanized steel, and PVC, have varying lifespans. Copper pipes can last 50 years or more, while galvanized steel pipes may only last 20-50 years. Regular inspections can help identify leaks or corrosion. Tip: Consider repiping with more durable materials when necessary, and address leaks promptly to prevent water damage. Appliances: o Expected lifespan: Varies by appliance type (e.g., 10-15 years for refrigerators, 15-20 years for ovens) Household appliances, including refrigerators, ovens, dishwashers, and washing machines, have different lifespans. Quality, usage, and maintenance all influence how long these appliances last. Tip: Follow manufacturers' maintenance guidelines, repair appliances when possible, and consider energy-efficient replacements. Conclusion: Understanding the anticipated life of home components is crucial for maintaining your property's value, safety, and functionality. While these estimates provide a general guideline, proper care and regular maintenance can significantly extend the life of your home's various parts. By staying proactive and addressing issues as they arise, you can enjoy a comfortable and functional home for many years to come.

So if I cry at a movie, it's like, oh, thank God I can still cry. You know, because, it's (my emotions) evened out so much. I'm also old. And I heard that that happens when you're old too. So I don't know how much of it is mindfulness, but I know that Sarah Lazar at Mass General has done studies on this kind of thickening in the brain that happens through meditation, which is kind of like a buffer. So it doesn't mean that you don't know how you feel. It's just that it doesn't break through in a way that overwhelms you.To your question, I like to think that mindfulness helps, and it's not just that I'm old, but I'm not sure. Thoughts on Breathing I think that the 30-second mindset reset called polyvagal breathing, diaphragmatic breathing, power breathing, call it what you want, is just everybody's best friend forever. When I talk about how we get primitive under stress. When it's extreme, and I think it feels extreme to a lot of people right now, understandably, we go into fight-flight freeze and that's in the sympathetic nervous system. So, just these 3 breaths that are taken in a very specific way. Suggested Resources Book: The Mindful Body: Thinking Our Way to Chronic Health by Ellen Langer Book: How People Change by Allen Wheelis App: n/a Bullying Story I used to believe that I was the one being bullied, without going into too much detail. The bullying came from different sources, which made it hard to understand. But a few years ago, when I met up with some high school friends for lunch, something surprising happened. One of them pulled out a song I had written during my high school sorority days. They told me I had to write a mean song about someone, and when I saw it, I was horrified. I wanted to believe it was made up, but it wasn't. I had written that song. I couldn't reconcile this unkind act with the kind person I considered myself to be. It made me wonder how mindfulness could have helped. Children today are guided more than we were back then, and I hope such behavior would be recognized as wrong. I wrote a blog post about rudeness this week, as it seems to be on the rise. While it's not a new problem, it's essential to encourage kindness and civility, as even ancient civilizations struggled with these issues.

Lifespans have increased significantly in the 21st century and older adults report high levels of happiness. But there are major challenges an aging population poses - and faces - at the societal, governmental, legal and individual levels. MT Connolly, the former head of the U.S. Department of Justice's Elder Justice Initiative, discusses her new book The Measure of Our Age: Navigating Care, Safety, Money and Meaning Later in Life and ways of improving life for older adults at those different levels. MT Connolly joins us from Washington, DC. ___________________ Bio MT Connolly, a leading national expert on elder justice, was awarded a MacArthur "genius" grant for her work shaping research, policy and practice. She was founding head of DOJ's Elder Justice Initiative, architect of the federal Elder Justice Act, and lead author of the Elder Justice Roadmap, setting priorities for the field. That work, and her research for "The Measure of Our Age: Navigating Care, Safety, Money and Meaning Later in Life," led her to co-design teams that provide more holistic, hopeful, and evidence-based services aimed to reduce trouble and enhance connection as we age, like the innovative "RISE" program. First pilot-tested in Maine, and now expanding elsewhere, RISE services are “person-centered” and can include support for caregivers and others. MT grew up in Rochester, Minnesota and the Northwoods of Wisconsin, graduated from Stanford and Northeastern University School of Law, is adjunct faculty at USC's Davis School of Gerontology, and lives in Washington, DC. _________________________ For More on MT Connolly The Measure of Our Age: Navigating Care, Safety, Money, and Meaning Later in Life Website ________________________ Podcast Episodes You May Like Breaking the Age Code – Dr. Becca Levy Who Will Take Care of You When You Are Older? – Joy Loverde Are You Ready for The New Long Life? – Andrew Scott Getting Good at Getting Older – Rabbi Laura Geller _________________________ Mentioned in This Podcast Episode Is This Risk on Your Radar? – Julie Belshe How the Elderly Lose Their Rights - The New Yorker The Mindful Body – Ellen Langer The New Old Age - David Brooks in The Atlantic Dr. Kate Wilber USC ___________________________ Wise Quotes On Creativity and Curiosity "Then there's aging as an opportunity. The late chapters of life has been a good opportunity for expanded creativity and curiosity. And I think we really underestimate old age in this respect, because there is so much we can do. And recent article by David Brooks in the Atlantic focusing on Encore Time focused on this as well. And I think that it's a spectacular time to do something new, to try something new that can also be tremendously enriching. There's the power of awe and transformation. Life is, and time is transformation. We're always changing. But also if we focus on what we think is beautiful, what is transcendent? And that's different for everybody. It might be a night sky for somebody. For another person, it might be a religious practice. For another person, it might be meditation, or a trip to the Grand Canyon. It's different for everybody, but it's feeling like we're part of something bigger, like this great flow of humanity, but also the universe. We're the tiny little specks in the universe.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Andy Mant. He is the founder of BON CHARGE, a science-backed light management company. From just a $1,500 investment Andy started BON CHARGE in 2017 and has quickly grown BON CHARGE to an 8-figure business in just 3 years. Join our upcoming 5 day keto virtual event for FREE: https://www.ketokamp.com/keto-challenge Andy was born in Dorset, England and moved to Australia in 2011 to pursue a better life. Andy never fitted into the corporate work environment and felt the typical 9-5 work mentality was stifling his creativity. In early 2017 Andy was told by a leading psychiatrist that he should work for himself as he displayed CEO and leadership characteristics which are rarely seen. This was the inception point for the creation of BON CHARGE! Andy is a proven blueprint of how you can make your millions quickly in your 30s and do so with very little investment and almost zero risk. Andy aims to empower others to reach their potential and get out of the rat race and build a better future for themselves and those around them. In this episode, Andy Mant speaks about how you can improve your overall well-being with his BON CHARGE products. He dives into how light can drastically change your circadian rhythm, which will, in turn, impact how well you are sleeping. Andy explains why you should go outside and get cardiovascular exercise in the morning. Tune in as we chat about how sunglasses and sunscreen could be linked to cancer, why eating before bed will adversely impact your melatonin production, and the fantastic benefits of red light therapy.

[15:40] The Effects of Light on Your Circadian Rhythm and Sleep Everyone has a circadian rhythm. Our body's main environmental cue system for entrainment is light. Before modern times, there wouldn't have been any artificial blue light present. The sunrise and sunset would have trained our body clocks. When we are outside during sunset, it is the brain's cue to start reducing cortisol levels and producing something called melatonin, our sleep hormone. Cell phones, TVs, and other lights keep us in perpetual daytime and tell our brains that we don't need to go to sleep. One way to transition your brain to sleep mode is by keeping your room nice and dark. [28:05] Get Some Cardiovascular Exercise After Breakfast To Start Your Day Walk after you have a big breakfast and get some sunlight. People that go out and eat in sunlight in the mornings experience more weight loss than those that eat under blue light. Cardiovascular exercise seems to be more favored in the morning for humans from a circadian rhythm standpoint. Weight lifting is better in the afternoons in terms of our circadian rhythm. [36:10] How Eating Before Bed Will Impact Your Melatonin Production When you eat before bed, you're going to reduce the amount of melatonin production in your body. Melatonin is the most potent antioxidant in the world. The less melatonin you have, the less sleep hormone you'll have, the less REM sleep you'll get, and the less deep sleep you'll get. Without enough melatonin, you will not let your body recover properly while sleeping. Melatonin: Miracle Molecule: https://www.amazon.com/Melatonin-Transform-Melatonin-resilience-longevity/dp/B09VDRSJBV/benazadi-20 [43:10] Can Sunglasses and Sunscreen Lead To Skin Cancer? If you're wearing sunscreen or if you're wearing sunglasses, there is a potential cause for concern because you're no longer sending messages from the raw sunlight to your body. The type of light that comes through the sunglasses is being filtered instead of natural sunlight. Many people believe that sunglasses and sunscreen are causing cancer because we are creating junk light. Also, if you are getting sunlight through glass, it's not the same as getting sunlight outside. [51:15] Red Light Therapy: Does It Really Work? Red light is the most studied type of light. Red light therapy has been shown to accelerate fat loss, boost collagen, reduce aging, improve muscle recovery, and improve arthritis. Plus, red light helps with sleep, psoriasis, and eczema. One study showed a 10% increase in weight loss for people who had red light therapy and were doing the same cardiovascular exercise on the treadmill as those who did not get red light therapy.

We spend too much of our health care focus on lifespan and not enough on healthspan--the quality of our life as we get older. So argues Dr. Peter Attia, author of Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity. Attia speaks with EconTalk's Russ Roberts about what kills us, what slows us down as we age, and the weapons we have to allow us to live better and longer.
