Rebuild yourself
We are what we eat and drink
We consume food several times a day, and a healthy body reminds us through hunger that it needs energy. But what if we viewed food not just as a way to satisfy hunger, but as an opportunity to strengthen, heal, and renew our body?
Longevity and nutrition
Longevity experts know that while nutrition cannot change our genes, it can regulate their activity - determining which genes related to ageing or regeneration are active at any given time. Those seeking a long life see food not just as calories, but as a biochemical control system. Ideally, nutrition is carefully tailored to each individual based on comprehensive testing and diagnostics. Some core principles are consistent across longevity recommendations: reducing inflammation, stabilising blood sugar, and protecting DNA and mitochondria, for example through moderate calorie reduction, protein optimisation, or intermittent fasting.
Eat to live longer, not just to be full.

Nutrition - what science says
For a long life, it is less about any single supplement or super-food and more about a balanced diet that reduces inflammation, stabilises blood sugar, supports cellular regeneration, and maintains a healthy gut microbiome. The traditional Mediterranean diet has well-documented life-extending effects. It is rich in vegetables and legumes, whole grains, healthy fats, fish, and limited red meat, complemented by ripe fruit. Combined with a social and mindful eating culture, it significantly lowers the risk of cardiovascular disease, dementia, and cancer.
