Turn back time: Harvard professor's diet and lifestyle secrets to rewind your biological clock

Over time, our once efficient bodies start showing signs of wear and tear, health begins to wane - an inevitability of aging. Or is it? It appears that we might be able to rewind our biological clocks, potentially by as much as ten years. And the secret weapon? A proper diet.

Considered an authority in the field of longevity, 54-year-old Harvard lecturer, Dr. David Sinclair, recently went public with the claim that his developed methods rewound his biological clock by an entire decade. Owing to a balanced diet, physical activity, and regular supplementation, Sinclair was able to develop a method that rejuvenated his body by a decade.

The cornerstone of his success was diet. Sinclair adopted intermittent fasting, a nutritional strategy increasing in popularity, which involves refraining from eating for a specified number of hours (in Sinclair's case, an impressive 16 hours). Outside of those hours, any food is permissible. However, Sinclair chose plant-based foods low in sugar and fat, avoiding processed foods, alcohol, stimulants, and anything high in simple sugars.

Dietary changes weren't the only influence on Sinclair's well-being. He also incorporated cold therapy into his regimen, which reduces inflammation and relieves pain when applied regularly. Complementing the therapy with daily physical activity of just 30 minutes, Sinclair noticed a marked improvement in his physique's firmness and resilience. Supplementing his diet with healthy fats rich in omega-group acids, probiotics, vitamin D, and vitamin K2 was the final element in his strategy to 'rejuvenate' his biological clock.
