AUTOPHAGY as YOU Age | The Cellular Recycling Secret to Longevity

We’ve all had that roommate who would live their life putting dirty dishes in the sink with the intention of cleaning them later (if you haven’t, you may want to do some self-reflection). But as we all know “Later” quickly turns into a smelly confrontation that could only be done justice on a reality show called “Kitchen Wars”.

But you may not even have to wait for this show to air….

Because this “Reality TV” situation, isn’t too far off from what’s happening in each and every one of us at this very moment. As being the most complex organism on the beautiful floating rock is a High Energy / High Waste Business, and one of the byproducts of this natural happening is a build-up of cellular garbage.

Garbage, which we are luckily, fully equipped to handle. As we have in-house cellular recycling processes which spring into action (Autophagy) to clean-up this mess before our cellular kitchen sink turns into a breading ground for disease & dysfunction.

That being said… There’s also a Catch….

Not only does this natural process seem to decline as we age, but our modern-day societal norms actively impair it even more! Yes, we’re talking the ultra processed eating, extreme sedentary behavior, severe nature deficit and chronically deprived sleep. Ultimately cultivating an environment for the cellular dishes to pile up and our cellular function to start getting stinky.

Yikes is Right! Good thing we can modulate the activity & efficiency of this clean-up process thought lifestyle, Right!

Let’s See How…
