Main Points From Today’s Episode
- Constant snacking keeps your blood sugar elevated, which is very aging. JJ shares how to optimize meal timing to increase longevity.
- Sugar is extremely aging because of a process called glycation. Glycation occurs when protein and fats combine with sugar in the bloodstream.
- Stress shortens your telomeres, which are the protective end caps around your DNA. Meditation and tapping are two of JJ’s favorite ways to lower stress.
