3:58 Home tests for sarcopenia
5:08 How to increase longevity
One of my goals is to help people live longer, quality lives. So, let’s talk about longevity.
Of course there are common signs of aging like wrinkles, gray hair, or loss of hearing. But these aren’t actually good indicators of how old someone is or how long they might live.
I believe the best indicator to determine longevity is muscle strength. As a person ages, they lose muscle mass and strength. There is a strong association between the loss of muscle strength and mortality.
The muscles that are affected first are the anterior thigh muscles (the quadriceps). One test that is used to determine if someone has sarcopenia (muscle atrophy) is the sit-to-stand time test or a chair-to-stand test. You can also try the hand grip strength test.
The best ways to support longevity:
1. Take vitamin D
2. Do resistance-type exercise
3. Consume nutrient-dense foods
4. Do fasting
5. Keep your cortisol low
6. Improve your state of mind
7. Consume an adequate amount of quality protein
8. Take HMB (if you have sarcopenia)

My mom lived to 86. She died from ovarian cancer. My dad lived to 97. Passed from pneumonia. My mom always said she would rather wear out than rust out. I can still hear her saying, “ Get up and start moving around. You’ll feel better.” She was still driving from Minnesota to Arizona and back every year at eighty four. Dad stopped driving when his eyesight started to go. Nothing serious, he just didn’t think a seventy five year old man with cataracts should drive. Mom still had twenty-twenty when she passed. They were the most in love couple I have ever seen in all my sixty-five years.

I’m 62. I remember my dad telling me when I was young to take care of my legs… “ you’ll need them more than you think when you get older ..” after my daily stretches and light weight lifts, I end with 3 sets of squats ! Been doing it for 20 years. A game changer!

@writerforlifeify Год назад

Squats!? I did that from age 15 to 31, first with only 30, then 60, then 100, then peaked at 500 within 15 minute sessions. Could speed-squat 100 in 1.8 min. Developed rock-hard quadriceps. Finally had to give up that nonsense as I was seriously eroding the cartilage in my (clicking) knees. What I did was crazy! Took me 6 months to rebuild my cartilage after 16 years of damage. But I still do some from time to time, modified versions, while swinging away on my Gazelle (google images of this pedal-type no-motor treadmill). Much easier on the knees to perform swinging squats. And more fun!

My grandmother died in her 101 year. Secret to that? Probably healthy food with no additives - she never ate anything coming form any package, and she was physically active, talking to friends neighbors and family every day. Being outside every day with clean air in the countryside. No yoga etc and no keto obviously. Eating food that is in seasons, pickles in winter in particular (cabbages etc).

My grandma lived to be 104. She definitely got smaller as she aged, but even in "the home" where she spent her last two years, she was the menace because she was the one who was mobile. She could barely see and hear, her mind was definitely going, but she still figured out how to outwit the alarm in her chair (get out of it without it going off,) and at least once, she tried to go on a walk outside. When she was told the door would lock behind her, she said, "I'll just put my cane in it," (to prop it open). She took few supplements/medications, saw doctors for checkups but just didn't have a lot of issues to treat. She ate everything in moderation, didn't drink, had a strong faith in God and belief in helping/giving to others, she loved nature and got out in it to walk until it got unsafe to do so. I'm not doing nearly as well as she did (best I can tell, she also didn't complain,) and I don't want to live as long as she did.

My dad lived to be 93, his brother was 99. Their parents both lived to be 98 and my great-grandmother was 99. My grandfather was an alcoholic and my father had a sweet tooth. I think my father was right, he always said that longevity is in the genes.

@seed_drill7135 Год назад

My great-grandmother's family was so long-lived we refer to it as the Williams gene. She lived to be 98 and her sister to be 101, despite both having had dementia for over a decade. Their brother was independent until he died at age 107. My grandfather had five siblings who died natural deaths, all six outlived their spouse, though only one made it to their 90's. One of his nieces is still alive at 100. Sadly, my mother did not benefit, as she died of cancer when she was 42. Her grandmother actually outlived her.

If someone lives to be 100 with very bad lifestyle habits because of "good genes", imagine how long they would have lived and their quality of life (less injuries and sickness, never losing their independence) if they took care of themselves.

Good vid. Very informative. I'm 75, and it feels like I've aged more in the past year than in the previous 10. Definitely getting weaker, but can still sit and get up from the floor ok, and grip strength is very good. Play tennis a couple times a week, do dumbbells and kettle bells a couple times a week, bicycle or walk to everything within about a 4-mile radius of my home. Farther than that and I take a bus or get a ride. During the past year I've been diagnosed with various back and hip problems, osteopenia, and arthritis. Seems like I need significantly more sleep than a year or so ago. I've had Crohn's disease for about 15 years, but take Humira and it's been in remission for over two years. During the past year my vocalization has become markedly weaker. That is, I struggle to talk as loud as I could even just a year ago. Anyway, thanks for your videos. I went ahead and subscribed. Your presentations are clear and I can understand what you're saying. Plus, a friend of mine who is a health and fitness nut recommended you.

My grandfather lived to 97. Ate poorly, drank beer and smoked from the age of 8 til he was in his early 60s. In his 60s he changed his diet and quit smoking. But he was always fit, was a cyclist and swimmer, body surfed until he was 93. He always had a happy skip in his step, even on the day he died. He was physically and mentally healthy up until his last few years and got a bladder infection that couldn’t be treated. Suspect he may have had prostate cancer. His wife, my grandmother never did a single bit of exercise in her life and was overweight - she lived to be 100. My other grandmother is now 98, also has never done any exercise, spent her life watching TV and had a terrible diet. Longevity is in the genes.

Thank for your explanations on sarcopenia, unfortunately I have developed that along with other physical traits of stress, i.e excessive fat in abdominal area. I started taking nutritional yeast a month ago and did notice a little more energy. Two nights ago I started to take another dose before bed, as you suggested for better sleep. It helped some, but it mainly has addressed my palpitations at night. This is wonderful, because lately they have been very bad that I wake up sweating. I don't do well with anti anxiety or depression meds. So I hope this will be a permanent fix. I am also hypothyroid.

All of these paradigms get throw right out the window when you’ve encountered what I have in the last year: I’m 61 years old, and I’ve been battling Hemochromatosis the last 4 years and had gotten my Ferritin down from an initial 4580 to 24 most recently. I was feeling good last summer (2021), but then last December my Blood Pressure fell off the face of the earth - to 90/40. I went to my Cardiologist and he just dismissed it as that I had lost 150lbs on Keto. I went from 321lbs to 170lbs in the last 4 years. I went for a 2nd opinion, and we found out my Aortic Valve was regurgitating. My Aortic Valve was replaced via traditional Open Heart Surgery. The surgeon did the traditional sternotomy because he suspected my Mitral Valve might be damaged too. When he got “inside” my heart he found my Mitral Valve to be good. But, he did find that my Aortic Valve had a 4-5mm hole in one of its leaflets, plus the valve was congenitally defective in that it was bicuspid and not tricuspid. I had a bovine valve implanted. Now recently, I had an endoscopy/colonoscopy and I had 3 polyps removed from my stomach and 4 polyps removed from my colon. All benign, Thank God. But, I got a GI bleed from the endoscopy and I lost so much blood that it sent me into anemia. My Hemoglobin went down to 9. I’m fighting back now by eating liver, liverwurst, beets, etc. And I’ve been able to get my hemoglobin up to 10.5 now. So, you never know what’s going to send you down a slippery slope of decline, and always get a 2nd opinion from Doctors when you’re not satisfied with their prognosis.

One of the things that I started doing several years ago is to make a conscious point not to help "myself up" out of a seated position. I use my lower body only, no hands. That means I rely primarily on my quads, glutes, and core. Since I was a teenager I have enjoyed regular weightlifting and other physical activity to stay healthy including lots of stretches, yoga and other balancing exercises, walking forward and backwards, high intensity interval training, dancing, etc. Adding daily life things like taking the stairs as much as possible and not helping myself out of a seated position is enormously helpful in maintaining my strength and balance and I try to encourage others to do the same as much as they are able.

Yes! There was a seemingly-logical idea that eating fat made you fat. Also that eating cholesterol (e.g. eggs) raised your cholesterol.

Calories coming from carbs affects my weight much more than calories from fats and protein.

Dr Berg says in this video at 9:20 that "State of Mind is the number 1 factor for longevity." I loved hearing that because I am an eternal optimist and like to enjoy my life and feel good as much as possible and that isn't related to having to do expensive things or visit exotic places. it's related to feeling good even doing simple things like eating healthy and walking in the park and talking about what is good in life. I know someone who is a realist bordering on a skeptic and he's in rough shape in endless ways.

I was told by a health insurance company that almost all of the clients they have who are my age, 65, are on at least 5 prescription drugs a day! I don't take any. I work out with weights and eat well. No type 2 diabetes, no high blood pressure. I can get up out of a chair easy even though I just did a big BB squat workout.

I think there is nothing better to keep in shape both mentally and physically than ballet. Following the choreography is great mental stimilation in addition to the physical workout. Plus it is really sociable. I love it, always have.

I was born with a mild version of arthrogryposis, where it mostly affects my arms and hands... basically born with some atrophied muscles and stiff joints that don't contract normally. Luckily I also have strong legs and back, not totally affected. Sarcopenia is a new one to me, so I'm happy to see these kinds of info because I need to make sure I am as strong as possible as I get older.

Dr. Berg I totally hear you! Long ago, I used to think people in their 50's were so old and aged. I never ever forget my once elderly neighbor passed away from colon cancer passed away at the age of 54 and I thought then she was olllddd.! I'm now 55 and I have a totally different perspective. I feel great. I can still sit on the floor and stand up very quickly without using my hands. I can still lie on the floor and still, get up onto my feet without using my hands. I IF as well. I used to work at a medical receptionist at a busy hospital and would glanced at their ages and was surprised how aged most of those people were in their 60's..... with canes, w/c, walking slowly. I now look to older healthy people for role models. You look fantastic at 58! Hey, Robert Iger is now 71 and he's the new proven fact....70 is now the new 50!

My grandpa died at the age of 68, he was healthy in a way that he was still riding his motorcycle. He loves to jog and do zumba at our local center. He dont like canned foods or fastfoods, he looked pretty good too at his age. But he died two weeks after his 68th birthday, he got hit by a car on his way to the market. He was just walking and greeting people that walked by. If it werent for that hit and run, he would still be alive today. Healthy and happy. It makes me want to live in a healthy way like him. And i know that you can be fit and healthy but you will never know when its ur time to go. I still want to live my life to the fullest.❤️

Because of Doctor Berg (keto and intermittent fasting), not only did I lose 103 pounds (and keep it off), I'm back in the gym doing 300 pound leg presses - not bad for age 54. Therefore I am able to stand quickly from a seated position.

@@lilyofthevalley1045 Thank you for your kind comment. Taking my age into account, I go more for intensity than ultra heavy weights, though 300 pounds is pretty heavy. But I'm sure that you could push heavy weights, but don't need to. For me it's more about intensity and fitness. Thanks again and good luck with what you do.

Another helpful vid from Dr Berg! I’m a 70 year old lady and I popped up from sitting like a Jack in the box. However I sometimes have orthostatic hypotension and get a little dizzy if I stand up too fast after lying down. Note I lifted weights in my 30s so had more developed muscles than many women. PS I cook and eat healthy food, not 100% keto but 90% protein!

I 100% agree that state of mind should be number 1! It has always intrigued me as I listen and watch people my age and younger, age poorly around me, I’ve noticed how they talk negatively about aging seems to be the common theme. For example, my 31 year old coworker thought we were around the same age, I am 11 years older, but I heard her talk about how “old” she was when she hit 30 and then 31, and how her body is already “sagging” at that age… it’s all about the mind set of what aging is to you and what you’re truth is in relation to it.
