Issue #49   I   May 8th, 2025 Photography by Lucas Ottone           Welcome to The Mindset by Super Age. This week, we’re turning small, everyday choices into powerful longevity tools. Think of it as a curated reset: we're unpacking the new science of longevity, a smarter hip stretch that realigns your spine and protects your back, a fermented tea that quietly strengthens your gut lining, and a moment with art that expands your emotional range and resilience. Longevity is not about overhauling your life. It's about making informed choices that can create lasting change. Let’s dive in.       First, A Word From Our Sponsor: Timeline Is Cellular Health the New Gut Health? Science says yes. Mitochondria power your cells, but they also support muscle strength, energy, and healthy aging. The problem? By your 30s, they start to wear down, draining energy and accelerating aging. Enter Urolithin A, a molecule that revitalizes mitochondria, boosting energy and strength. Mitopure is a clinically proven form of Urolithin A that has shown results in as little as two months.* And now, it's available in a zero-sugar strawberry gummy. Use code SUPERAGE at checkout for 10% off Mitopure Gummies.   Try Mitopure Today *Backed by studies published in JAMA and other peer-reviewed journals.

This Small Adjustment Could Save Your Back Hip flexibility decreases by 6 degrees every decade in men and 7 degrees in women, which explains why hip mobility stretches are so popular on TikTok right now. New research shows that adding one slight adjustment, a posterior pelvic tilt, can radically improve the most popular hip stretch, reducing back strain and helping protect your balance and spine. This isn’t just a better stretch. It’s a biomechanical upgrade. Tight hip flexors from sitting, stress, or old injuries affect your mobility by pulling your pelvis forward, stressing your spine, and decreasing your stability.  👉 Here’s how to stretch smarter and protect your hip mobility →     Ancient Tea for Gut Health? New Study Says Yes Your gut is a command center for your immune system, metabolism, and even mood. As we age, the diversity of gut bacteria tends to decline while low-grade, chronic inflammation quietly ramps up. Scientists call this “inflammaging.”  One of the main culprits? A disrupted microbiome. When the balance of beneficial vs. harmful bacteria is off, it can set off a chain reaction that weakens your gut barrier and puts your body in a constant state of low-grade defense. We know about the foods that nourish your microbiome. Now, an 8-week study found that drinking kombucha may improve gut barrier function and reduce inflammation-linked bacteria. The secret? Fermented polyphenols. 👉 Which kombucha supports a healthier gut and longer life? →     You Can Add 14 Years to Your Life With These Daily Habits Here’s the truth: Your genes determine only about 25% of your lifespan. The rest is shaped by the choices you make every day. This week, health journalist Kelle Walsh breaks down the latest longevity research into a clear, actionable guide for boosting your healthspan, and it's packed with insights. For example:  The Right Habits Can Add 14 Extra Years to Your Life: Women can add up to 14 years to their lifespan, and men nearly 12, by mastering five lifestyle habits.  Loneliness Is as Dangerous as Smoking: Social isolation increases your risk of premature death as much as smoking, obesity, or high blood pressure. Fitness > Weight: A major study found that being fit offers more longevity protection than having a “healthy” BMI, shifting the focus from how you look to how well your body functions. Optimists Are Up to 70% More Likely to Reach Age 85: People with a positive outlook have better cardiovascular health, stronger immunity, and greater resilience, regardless of income or existing conditions. 👉 Learn how to add up to 14 years to your life →     Your Brain Loves Art: 25 Ways Art Illuminates How You Feel Turns out, standing in front of a painting that moves you is an emotional workout. A study published in Scientific Reports found that viewing visual art activates 25 distinct emotional states, from the mystical to the mind-bending. But this isn’t just about feeling more. It’s about becoming fluent in the full spectrum of human experience. Engaging with art sharpens your emotional granularity, which is the ability to name and navigate complex, nuanced feelings. That kind of emotional intelligence is as protective as it is poetic, linked to lower stress, deeper relationships, and better physical health. 👉 Explore an interactive map of your emotional brain →       This Quiz Can Predict How Long You'll Live   Ready to take control of your health?
