Last month, professional boxer and TV pundit David Coldwell came to visit us at the DoNotAgeยฎ office ๐ŸฅŠ As a boxing trainer, David spends his days in the gym getting fighters ready, so we wanted to know how he keeps himself at his best. We talked all things performance, recovery and how he maintains a healthy lifestyle. David has added DoNotAgeยฎ Performance to his routine and calls it a game changer for his training. Heโ€™s noticed he no longer struggles with his breathing when heโ€™s sprinting. This November, get a free pouch of DoNotAgeยฎ Performance, with Creatine, Nitralisยฎ and NAC, when you subscribe to DoNotAgeยฎ Routine, our 15-in-1 longevity drink. Your full longevity and performance routine, together. The free Performance pouch is only available in November, so get it before itโ€™s too late! hubs.ly/Q04DpYSR0

what if i told you that most supplements dont work or at best you have no idea what they are doing what if i told you that 99% of supplements have never been through a clinical trial which in plain English means you have no idea what its doing to your body what if i told you that third party testing doesnt mean anything, because most of them are fake they send a pure sample to be tested then send you the fake one what if i told you that they claim no fillers, but they use excipients (which are the same thing, and not good for you) what if i told you that the 1% of supplements that have been through a clinical trial did not use real science so the results of that trial are bias at best, fraudulent at worst what if i told you that i've been on calls with CRO's (the companies that run clinical trials for pharma companies and some supplement companies) and the first question they ask is "what marketing claims do you want to make off the back of this trial?" thats not how science should be done. it should be "lets take 50 people, give half of them the supplement and half of them a placebo, and measure the differences and see if it has benefit or not" what if i told you that supplement companies spend an average of 60% of their revenue every year on marketing and ads. and 0% on making sure what they're selling actually works. which means out of the $40 you spent, $25 went to Facebook and Instagram ads, shipping is $10, $2 is their profit, and the actual product cost $3 to make what if i told you that science backed means nothing, and is actually a red flag what if i told you that made in usa just means bottled in the usa and the raw ingredient can be from anywhere. also theres nobody checking its actually bottled in usa. people can just say things. what if i told you that companies have been sold for literally billions of dollars by selling these supplements to millions of people and we have no idea if those supplements are working, because there's no clinical trial to measure it one is currently on the market for $500,000,000 and their products are useless and their marketing is not backed up by anything credible for me personally i dont care if someone wants to make $500m, good luck to them. but i do care that means they have around 3,000,000 customers who are taking stuff that doesnt work and being lied to what if i told you that we tested a load of brands from Amazon and none of them contained what they claimed we told Amazon and they did nothing about it. this was in 2021, and some of those brands still sell to this day, 1 is even "amazons choice" some of these brands also sell in Walmart, CVS, Boots, GNC etc. what if i told you that the above is completely true, and yet nobody cares. so now i have a dilemma. join the dark side and put money into marketing to educate people (but that means less money into research) and potentially lose anyway because one small company v thousands of bigger companies is not a smart fight, particularly when it comes to marketing, which is won by the highest bidder or keep doing the right thing, put all the money into research, and stay small, and constantly have to explain to people why they shouldnt be doing what they are doing. "it is easier to lie to someone than convince them they've been lied to." what if i told you i have no idea how to fix this, or what the right thing to do next is.

Creatine has a reputation as a gym supplement. But the research tells a much bigger story. Beyond strength and power, creatine plays a role in how your whole body produces energy, including your brain. New studies suggest it can help memory, attention and how the brain deals with stress. Thatโ€™s why Professor Sergej Ostojic is leading a 24-week clinical trial of DoNotAgeยฎ Performance in older adults, looking at its role in healthy ageing. 7g of creatine in every sachet.

In this DoNotAge conference clip, Dr Jonathan Sinclair shares results from a 20-day double-blind trial of 400 mg quercetin vs placebo in healthy adults (mainly for blood pressure). An unexpected finding: daytime sleepiness dropped significantly on the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (โˆ’1.88 points adjusted difference, P=0.031). Lower scores mean less chance of dozing off during the day. Quercetin group improved; placebo slightly worsened.

A trial is only as good as its participants. Did they actually take it? ๐Ÿ’Š ๐ŸŽค Dr Jonathan Sinclair on adherence and side effects in the quercetin trial he and Professor Lindsay Bottoms ran with hubs.li/Q04BM9gy0, at the DoNotAge conference in London. โ–ถ๏ธ Full video link in our YouTube.

"its my genetics" "its not my fault" "its just getting older" "theres nothing i can do" none of these are true. your health is your responsibility. we would often rather believe something comforting and false than something uncomfortable and true.
