Review Paper: Coffee And Human Aging.
Regular coffee ingestion continues to be strongly associated with a variety of benefits. There’s also little doubt in my mind there’s additional benefits and synergism by including AlphaJoe to the daily coffee intake. A review paper just out, “Impact of coffee intake on human aging: Epidemiology and cellular mechanisms”...
AlphaJoe Advanced Protein
COMING SOON! NEW Product: AlphaJoe Advanced Protein (AAP) AAP is not unlike AlphaJoe coffee booster, in that it’s a “simple” formulation I have been using and recommending for years. I mix the three key ingredients – whey, collagen, and colostrum – almost daily, as I feel they’re synergistic, with...
Coffee: Cortisol, Testosterone, Lactic Acid and Anaerobic Performance
A recent study compared coffee to caffeine alone, decaf, and placebo, examining the impact on cortisol, testosterone, lactic acid and anaerobic performance, using a single-blind, counterbalanced, randomized and crossover study design.

Intermittent Fasting Studies
There’s now been a number of well-controlled studies comparing IF to a more traditional approach to weight loss. To date, they don’t find IF superior to more traditional approaches. A well controlled iso-caloric feeding study just published in 2024 “Effect of Isocaloric, Time-Restricted Eating on Body Weight in Adults...

Whey protein never fails to amaze and surprise me for its long list of potential benefits. One unexpected benefit of whey may be that of a mood elevator and antidepressant. This effect of whey is actually not a new finding. I wrote about that in an article on how...
Of Human Consciousness, Near Death Experiences, And Aliens!

Evidence, such as it is, suggests to me that consciousness is possibly a non-local field or dimension that exists outside...
Viagra, A Legit Longevity Drug?
I wrote about drugs like Viagra – a phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor – decade ago as a possible anabolic agent, and more data has been published since suggesting a benefit to bodybuilders and other athletes. However, more interesting to me, these drugs may have more general health and anti aging...

, , Anti-Aging and HRT, General Health, Videos, 1
A paradigm shift in the cause of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) as a “normal” or fundamental part of human aging, is taking place. I put normal in quotes as while it may be a normal aspect of our evolution as a species, that does not mean we don’t want...
Tattoos And Your Health
2024 Update: Study just published – “Tattoos as a risk factor for malignant lymphoma: a population-based case–control study” – found an approximate 21% increased risk of lymphoma. I have posted the study summary at the end of this article. While one should be cautious about making cause and effect conclusions...
Are Ice Baths Killing Your Gainz?
Ice baths are all the rage these days, yet nothing new. Like bad fashion, such as bell bottom jeans, they come back around every decade or so. I’m not anti ice baths per se, just not jumping on the bandwagon at this time either as I’m not convinced dunking...
