Dave Pascoe, a 61-year-old man, has developed a routine that helps him maintain a biological age much younger than his actual age. His daily habits include eating a green banana, using an electromagnetic blanket to stimulate blood circulation, engaging in stretching exercises, jumping on a mini trampoline, and taking functional food pills and homemade lemon tea. Pascoe claims to have the body of a 38-year-old as a result of these practices.
Pascoe is part of a growing trend known as “biological age hacking,” where middle-aged individuals seek to reduce the age of their cells to be biologically younger than their chronological age. Pascoe’s approach is more affordable than some others in this trend, costing him $30,000 per year. His initial goal was not to increase longevity or fight aging but rather to prevent cancer and depression by changing his lifestyle which has ultimately paid off for him over the past three years.
Pascoe follows a varied diet and takes 120 supplements, including zinc and Nutrafol, a hormone balancer. He also maintains a regular exercise routine, uses infrared saunas and utilizes electromagnetic technology to improve blood flow. By monitoring his biological age through blood tests, genetic tests and bone density tests Pascoe aims to track the effects of his lifestyle choices on aging.
As research in longevity progresses scientists explore ways to reverse the aging process before it fully manifests. Some experts believe that reducing inflammation and removing old and dead cells from the body can slow down aging. While individuals like Johnson and Pascoe rely on various methods to measure their biological age experts caution against the lack of standardized testing and small sample sizes in determining the efficacy of these interventions.
Despite skepticism from some experts individuals like Pascoe continue to focus on maintaining healthy lifestyle choices such as exercise routine dietary habits which they believe can promote longevity
