John R. Miles - The Reverse Aging Effect: How to Stay Young and Healthy  | Brought to you by AppSumo (https://social.appsumo.com/passion) and Gusto  (https://www.gusto.com/passionstruck.)

New research indicates that Ponce de Leon's much-hoped-for Fountain of Youth may be closer to reality than we imagined. And, that, my friends, is no science fiction. However, You don't have to imagine or hope for a mythical fountain of youth that holds the secret of reverse aging. You can decide daily to turn back the clock, slow the aging process, and reset your age.
