    LLN Episode #186: Mark Barnes – The Quest to Reach a Healthy 100

    LLN Episode #186: Mark Barnes – The Quest to Reach a Healthy 100

    About Mark Barnes:
    Mark Barnes is a longtime educator, entrepreneur, and co-author of Hacking Life After 50: 10 Ways to Beat Father Time and Live a Long, Healthy, Joy-Filled Life. He is on a quest to live past 100 and bring anyone interested along for the ride.
    Physical and mental wellbeing and living until and beyond 100 have become obsession to Mark so he and his like-minded friend, Jim Sturtevant, decided to share their journeys and everything they know in Hacking Life After 50. Mark and Jim are determined to beat Father Time and have some practical strategies to make this happen.
     
    What We Discuss In This Episode:
    Mark shares some practical ways to outrun Father Time and live a long, healthy, joy-filled life. He answers the question of, "What exactly is Hacking Life After 50" and why would anyone want to do it? Mark states clearly in his new book, written by himself and co-author, James Sturtevant, that they are not doctors or nutritionists; but educators, which he reiterates in the podcast. He discusses why "After-50s" should take his advice plus what Momentum Mindset is and the role it plays in living a long, healthy, joy-filled life. Apart from strength training, Mark shares some pretty simple strategies around movement, and we talk about how these basic movements impact longevity.  On the topic of strength training, Mark shares that anyone--even people in their 80s and 90s--can do it and discusses how this is possible. Mark shares his advise After 50s to Master Meal Planning. Isn't this just a fancy name for another fad diet? Nurturing the mind and soul seems abstract; how does this work?  In his book, Mark claims to have cured your own insomnia and shares how he did it. One of Mark's hacks for health and longevity is just called "Dabble." He tells us what it is and how it works. Every chapter of his new book has a What-You-Can-Do-Tomorrow feature. I asked him, "If you have to choose just one of these, which one can listeners do right now to improve physical or mental well-being?"

This crazy combo has brought her to live and work in the world of celebrity, high-powered executives, musicians, gifted practitioners, and innovative thinkers who are having a positive impact on people and our planet.
     
    What We Discuss In this Episode:
    In this episode, Dr. Grace and I discussed the importance of food in gut and brain repair, as well as the prevalence of heart-related diseases in the US. 
    We emphasized the need to look at food labels and avoid trans fats, ex cyto- toxins, corn sugar, and GMOs. Dr. Grace explained how her platform, FoodFiXR, uses an AI system and algorithm to provide personalized grocery store lists for people based on their condition.
    We also discussed the negative impact of factory farming on animals, the environment, and human health, and recommended getting meats from local farmers or grocery stores that source their meats from pasture-raised animals that are organically fed.
    In this episode, we also talked about the negative impact of corn and sugar on inflammation and pain and advised decreasing sugar intake and removing corn from the diet. They stressed the importance of maintaining a good balance between omega three and omega six, and how removing corn and sugar from the diet can help achieve this balance and improve overall health. Additionally, we discussed the dangers of processed foods and artificial sweeteners, and the importance of probiotics for gut health. 
    Dr. Grace also shared information about her startup, FoodFiXR, which uses artificial intelligence to provide personalized grocery lists to help people heal from various conditions using food and encouraged listeners to sign up as beta testers.
