50. 8 Longevity Secrets (That Won't Cost a Dime)
Episode 50
Friday, 2 January, 2026
In this episode, Miles Hassell MD breaks down the no-gimmick fundamentals of living free of preventable disease and feeling better. No expensive tests. No complicated biohacking. Just simple habits that actually work. You'll learn why home-cooked whole foods beat anything factory-made, why getting short of breath during exercise daily is essential, how waistline control reverses chronic disease, and why purpose, generosity, and play keep your brain young. Key Takeaways: Eat real whole foods cooked at home; avoid ultra-processed foods. Follow a simple Mediterranean-style diet with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, eggs, dairy, meat, and olive oil. Exercise daily until you're short of breath (even 1 minute, 3x/day). Keep your waistline in check to reduce chronic disease. Bring your own lunch to avoid unhealthy meals. Maintain purpose, help others, and stay socially engaged. Play games (ping pong, pickleball, tennis) to protect your brain. Don't obsess over micronutrient tests—focus on the basics.
