Why do neuroscientists all eat berries? Whenever we listen to talks about lifestyle by brain experts, or interview them ourselves for our books, they reveal that they eat berries – with blueberries often top of the list. We know that the dark purple colour of blueberries (and blackcurrants, blackberries etc) comes from flavonoids, the deep…
WHAT IF THERE WAS ONE VITAMIN THAT SLOWS AGEING? AND A LONGEVITY-BOOSTING RECIPE
Wouldn’t it be lovely if there was just one thing we could do, one food to eat or one supplement to take which would slow down ageing? It would make everything so simple. But ageing is such a complex process that one quick fix is as likely as flying pigs. There has, however, been a…
WHAT’S HAPPENING IN YOUR BODY AS YOU AGE, AND A BRAIN HEALTH MASTERCLASS
Hi there, how are you feeling? I was so hoping that 2021 would be a fresh start for us all, but here we are (in the UK at least) back in lockdown and facing a rather grim first few months of the year. So I’ve been looking at fresh starts in other ways – not…
THE SILVER BULLET FOR ALZHEIMER’S? AND OUR FAVOURITE CHRISTMAS RECIPES
It’s going to be a strange Christmas for many of us: plans scrapped at the last minute, not seeing friends and family in the way that we hoped and potential food shortages. Honestly, who’s stockpiling lettuce?! The only option is to make this festive season the best we can, finding joy in the small things…
WHY A 12 MINUTE WALK IS ALL IT TAKES (AND A SPECIAL OFFER)
This week a recent report on exercise caught my eye. As the days shorten and darken, as the weather closes in, those long walks we all took in the magnificently sunny lockdown #1 don’t seem quite so appealing. For those of us in the UK, lockdown #2 has been subject to repeated deluges of rain,…
WHY YOUR SENSE OF SMELL MATTERS
How’s your sense of smell? In the recent – and ongoing – COVID crisis, our ability to smell (or not) has become one of the key indicators of whether we might have the virus. Indeed, the latest studies suggest that smell tests would be more effective than temperature tests in gaging who has and who…
HOME HEALTH TESTS, OMEGA-3s AND AN AGEING WELL WEBINAR
Blood all over the kitchen, multiple stab wounds and a lot of swearing – no, not a crime scene but husband and I trying to take an at-home health check recently. Here at The Age-Well Project we’re always interested in monitoring our wellbeing, and I’d been keen to try a DIY test for a while….
HOW TO BUILD MUSCLE ON THE SLY – AND WHY
18 months ago I was boarding a train to Scotland, when something life-changing happened. It was one of those small quiet moments of epiphany, an everyday moment but one that left me dazed and shaken. The train was very full (remember those days?) and the only place for my small-ish suitcase was in the overhead…
HOW TO EXERCISE, NORWEGIAN STYLE
A few of you have kindly asked after the health of our superagers – the five remarkable nonagenarians we featured in our first book, The Age-Well Project. I’ve managed to catch up with most of them and I’m delighted to report that all are still alive and well, albeit nearly three years older than they…
Answering your most frequently-asked questions – and a giveaway
A huge thank you to everyone who came to my ‘Feel Great: Age Well’ webinar last month. It felt very special to launch The Age-Well Plan with our warm and wonderful community here. And if it wasn’t the In Real Life event I’d hoped for at the beginning of the year, it was lovely to…
