Longevity scientist David Sinclair referred to DNP as “…a perfect weight loss pill” on the Joe Rogan show recently, which I discuss in my vid here. 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) is an old chemical with a long history, used in explosives since WWI. In the 1930’s it had a short-lived use...
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...

Of Human Consciousness, Near Death Experiences, And Aliens!
Two topics I have followed in one way or another for over 40 years is near death experiences (NDE’s) and extraterrestrial non-human intelligence, overly simplified as UFO’s or UAP’s. 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...
