This spice mix brings together some of the best-researched, longevity-supportive ingredients — packed with antioxidants, anti-inflammatory compounds, and phytonutrients that protect your cells and support healthy aging.

✨ Sprinkle this mix onto roasted vegetables, grain bowls, soups, or avocado toast. Just one teaspoon a day adds a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant boost.

➡️ Why It Works

✅ Turmeric + Black Pepper: Curcumin’s (bioactive compound in pepper) anti-inflammatory effects are significantly enhanced by piperine (bioactive compound in pepper).

✅ Cayenne: Adds metabolic support and a gentle thermogenic boost.

✅ Mustard: Increases beneficial sulforaphane production when paired with cruciferous vegetables.

✅ Oregano: Packed with antioxidants and antimicrobial compounds to support overall wellness.

🌱 Ingredients:

According to research, matcha tea extracts can kill breast cancer stem cells because matcha is PACKED with POLYPHENOLS. It’s also a good source of dietary fiber.

✅ Studies have shown that matcha tea - specifically its polyphenolic compounds like epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) can inhibit the propagation of breast cancer stem cells (CSCs), which are responsible for tumor recurrence and metastasis.

But the benefits of polyphenols go beyond breast cancer prevention. In addition, they feed beneficial gut bacteria, lower inflammation, and switch on your body’s own defense systems—supporting both gut health and whole-body resilience.

Research shows that polyphenols help:

➡️ Reduce oxidative stress

➡️ Protect brain and cardiovascular tissue

➡️ Support detoxification

➡️ Calm inflammation at the source

You’ll find them in:

🫐Berries (especially blueberries, blackberries, and cranberries)

🍫Cocoa and dark chocolate

🍵 Green tea, black tea, matcha

🍇 Grapes

🫒Extra virgin olive oil

🌿 Herbs and spices like turmeric, rosemary, and oregano

🥬 Vegetables like red onions, kale, and purple sweet potatoes

In short, polyphenols feed the right microbes, nudging your gut toward a healthier balance.

Check out our full blog (link in bio). And consider swapping that daily coffee for a matcha tea, and reap the benefits of polyphenols.

Beyond its role in libido and muscle mass, testosterone supports metabolism, mood, brain function, bone health, cardiovascular health, and overall vitality.

➡️ While age-related decline plays a role, many patients experience low testosterone due to lifestyle factors that are often PREVENTABLE and REVERSIBLE.

❓What drives low testosterone?

✅ Chronic Stress

✅ Sleep Loss

✅ Nutrient Deficiencies

✅ Environmental Toxins

✅ Metabolic Disfunction and Insulin Resistance

❓When is testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) appropriate?

➡️ When lifestyle interventions are not enough, TRT can be a valuable tool. It may improve:

✨ Energy, mood, and cognitive performance

✨ Muscle mass, bone density, and strength

✨ Insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control

✨ Libido and sexual function

TRT works best when paired with addressing root causes. Without optimizing sleep, nutrition, stress, toxin exposure, and metabolic health, TRT alone may not deliver full long-term benefit.

Comprehensive evaluation and ongoing monitoring are key for safe and effective therapy.

Schedule a visit at Biolounge for a comprehensive evaluation. When appropriate, our team can incorporate advanced testing, including hormone optimization, micronutrient analysis, toxin burden assessment, and metabolic testing - to build a personalized plan that supports your long-term hormonal health and overall viability.

Not all magnesium supplements are created equal, and the “best” type depends on what symptoms you’re trying to manage.

💩 For Digestion & Constipation
➡️Magnesium Citrate
* Stronger laxative effect
* Good for short-term use
* Can cause diarrhea if overused

🧠 For Brain Health
➡️ Magnesium Threonate
* Crosses the blood-brain barrier
* May improve cognitive function and memory
* Often used for brain fog or neurological support

💪🏻 For Muscles & Physical Recovery
➡️ Magnesium Sulfate
* Relieves sore muscles and cramps
* Reduces inflammation and tension
* Aids recovery after exercise (topically via baths)

⚡️For Muscle Cramps, Recovery, or Energy
➡️ Magnesium Malate
* Supports energy production (Krebs cycle)
* Good for fatigue and fibromyalgia
* May help with muscle pain

💤 For Stress, Anxiety, and Sleep
➡️ Magnesium Glycinate
* Calming and well-absorbed
* Gentle on the stomach
* Good for anxiety, sleep, and muscle relaxation

♥️ For Heart Health or Blood Pressure
➡️ Magnesium Taurate
* Supports cardiovascular health
* May help with blood pressure regulation
* Taurine is calming and heart-protective

🧪 Extra Tips:

* Check absorption: Chelated forms like glycinate, threonate, and malate are better absorbed than oxide.

* Watch for fillers: Choose high-quality brands with third-party testing.

* Dosing: Most adults need around 300–400 mg of elemental magnesium daily (from food + supplements).

Living longer doesn’t mean living better.

The average American now spends the last 20+ years of life battling chronic disease-propped up by meds, surgeries, and symptom management.

That’s not longevity. That’s managed decline.

➡️ The real problem? The healthcare system doesn’t care if you’re thriving-only if you’re surviving.

Want real longevity? Reverse inflammation, build muscle, prioritize sleep, and fix your metabolic health.

We want improved HEALTH SPAN, not just lifespan.
