Longevity Boost: Experts Hail Simple ‘3-2-1‘ โขRuleโ to โRewind Biological Age – โขand Warn Against Common Fasting Error
Newโค York, NY -โค A simple, no-cost strategy dubbed the “3-2-1 rule” โis gaining traction among longevityโ experts as aโ powerful tool to potentially shaveโ years off your biological age, accordingโ to Dr. Steven Lu, a physician with over 15 yearsโ of โclinical experience spanning multiple โmedical fields. The rule focuses on meal timing and is coupled with a warning about a frequently made mistake when practicing intermittent fasting.
Biological age, Dr. Lu explains,isn’t a single,unified process but rather “multiple clocks operating at different speeds.” He’s observed significant โdiscrepancies -โ 40-year-olds withโฃ the arteries of 65-year-olds,โค and 60-year-olds โwith the metabolism of 35-year-olds – highlightingโ the โคimpactโ of both genetics and lifestyle. “There’s intrinsic and extrinsicโ influencing factors.โข Genetics certainly determine some of your clocks. โHowever, the good newsโ is manyโ of these clocks respond to intervention,” he said.
The 3-2-1 rule, while not explicitly detailed in the provided text, aligns with the principle of optimizing metabolic function โฃthroughโ strategic eating windows. Experts suggest consuming three meals a day, finishing the last meal no later than three hours before bedtime, and ensuring a โminimum 12-hour fasting window.
The article also highlights the power ofโ accessible lifestyle changes, citing the example of Sydney father Jeremy Cabral, who lowered his biological age through “everyday biohacking” – focusing on sleep, food, movement, and technology. After six months, cabral lost 20kg and completed his firstโ marathon.
Dr. Lu also touched on โขthe biological impact of โขparenthood, โขacknowledgingโค the demanding nature of โraising children.โ “Without a doubt, I think kids age you biologically. โbut they also give me a reason to want to stay healthyโฆthe incentive โขfor healthโฆgives us a lot of power to say, ‘Let’s proactively windโ those clocks back.'” He noted the profound impact of pregnancy onโ women’sโข health, especially regarding sleep disruption andโฃ its cascading effects.
