Don’t think nutrition or over the counter supplements or psychological tools can safely help reduce pain? The evidence clearly says otherwise. See the latest Huberman Lab podcast with @DrSeanMackey MD PhD & Chief of Pain Medicine @StanfordMed hubermanlab.com/episode/dr-s…

Regular exercise is the factor most strongly associated with longevity. Most people do not exercise or stop exercising because of limited free time. Therefore, trying to 'fit exercise in' will always be a huge challenge. Try to think about how to 'Free Up Time' instead.

Loving the concept of ‘movement pension’ - early life deposits for benefits in later life
Dr Paddy Barrett (@Paddy_Barrett) profile pictureDr Paddy Barrett@Paddy_Barrett13 Jul 2023
Functional Independence in later life is an Area under The Curve issue. It's a 'Movement Pension'. The early you start, the better. Sure, you can make deposits later in life but the return on investment isn't nearly as much.
