Do We Get Old Because We Stop Moving? The Science of Motion, Muscle, & Healthy Aging

Image
There’s a saying you’ve probably heard: “Do we stop moving because we get old, or do we get old because we stop moving?” Most people assume it’s the first one — that aging just “happens,” and slowing down is inevitable. But when you look at modern longevity research, muscle science, brain imaging, and even NASA bed-rest studies, a very different picture appears: we age much faster when we stop moving. In this article, we’ll look at how movement, muscle, and brain activity work together to keep you younger — and how losing them accelerates aging. We’ll also pull in insights from leading experts like Dr. Peter Attia, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, Dr. Daniel Amen, Dr. Andrew Huberman, Dr. David Sinclair, and top muscle researchers, then finish with a practical movement blueprint you can start today. Big idea: Your body is always listening. When you move, lift, and challenge it, you’re telling it: ...

Can Colostrum, K2, and Collagen Help Kids with Growth Plate or Joint Issues?

Can gentle, over-the-counter supplements like colostrum, vitamin K2, collagen, and bone marrow support growing bones and joints through every stage of life? Bone & Joint Health Can Colostrum, K2, and Collagen Help Kids with Growth Plate or Joint Issues? If your child struggles with knee or hip pain, has joint dysplasia, or you’re worried about growth plate health, it’s natural to ask whether over-the-counter supplements like colostrum , vitamin K2 , collagen , and even bone marrow can help. They can, however, meaningfully support bone strength, joint integrity, collagen production, and recovery—especially for kids with joint dysplasia, cartilage disorders, or slow healing—and they continue to matter as those kids grow into teens and adults.

Raw Milk & Bone Healing: What the Science Actually Shows

Raw Milk & Bone Healing: What the Science Actually Shows Bone Healing Longevity Health & Nutrition Supplements Lactoferrin Colostrum Raw-milk advocates often claim there’s a “special protein” in raw dairy that can trigger bone growth and speed fracture healing. When you trace that claim back to actual science, it usually leads to two things: lactoferrin and bovine colostrum . Both are genuinely interesting. But that doesn’t mean you need raw milk in your fridge to heal a bone. Quick Summary Bone healing depends on total nutrition, protein, minerals, vitamins (D, K2, C), hormones, and mechanical loading — not a single “magic” food. Pasteurization barely changes milk’s protein, calcium, or phosphorus content and doesn’t erase its core bone-supporting nutrients. Lactoferrin is a powerful iron-binding protein that supports bone formation, immunity, and g...

17 Signs You Have a Magnesium Deficiency (Most People Do) Minerals • Stress • Sleep & Recovery If you feel tired, wired, tight, anxious, or you wake up at 2–3 AM for no obvious reason, there’s a good chance magnesium is part of the story . This quiet mineral is involved in more than 300 enzyme reactions, yet most people never think about it— and modern lifestyles quietly drain it every day. In my article The Science of Reverse Aging: Rebuild a Youthful Metabolism Naturally , I covered how minerals, hormones, and mitochondria work together. Magnesium sits at the center of that triangle: energy production, nervous system calm, blood sugar, sleep, and muscle function all depend on it.
