 Issue #52 I May 19, 2025  Gavin Hellier   Welcome to The Mindset by Super Age. This week is about building strength from the inside out. We’re starting with your bones: what to do now to protect your bone strength for decades to come. Then, we head to your pantry for smart upgrades that power your cells, reduce inflammation, and make every bite count. We’ve also got a deep dive on mitochondrial health and the postbiotic that can help you reset from within, plus the brain science behind aha! Moments and how to spark more of them. Let’s dive in!   The Best Exercises for Stronger Bones (at Any Age) There are two time periods in your adult life when your risk of fractures and broken bones climbs dramatically: between 40 and 50 and between 70 and 80. But you can build stronger bones and more stability now. Resistance training, especially heavy lifting, can help increase bone density and long-term resilience, no matter when you start.   The New Longevity Pantry: What to Stock Now Your pantry is your wellness lab and what you keep in it shapes your future health. From the fats that fight inflammation and microbiome-loving fermented foods to fiber-rich carbs and polyphenol-packed teas, this science-backed guide gives you a fresh blueprint for eating to thrive. We also highlight what not to stock and how simple swaps can change the way you age from the inside out.  Together with Timeline  This Longevity Molecule Recharges Your Cells Your mitochondria are tiny power plants in every cell that affect everything from your energy, strength, focus, and even how well you age. But they slow down with time, and when they do, everything from muscle strength to brain clarity takes a hit. That’s where urolithin A comes in. This is a paid content sponsorship with Timeline. The author reported objectively on this article.   Want More Clarity? Tap Into Your Brain’s Natural Insight Engine That moment when everything clicks? Those powerful bursts of clarity? Even researchers call these aha! Moments. And a new study shows that these moments of insight reshape your brain, help you form stronger memories, and literally rewire how you see the world. Founding Editor Heather Hurlock unpacks what’s really happening in the brain when insight strikes and shares five surprising, science-backed ways to spark more of them in daily life. From divergent thinking and strategic rest to the link between insight and flow state, it’s a practical guide to unlocking more clarity, creativity, and cognitive resilience. Plus, try a nighttime micropractice that primes your brain for insight. Because insight isn’t luck, it’s a skill. And your brain is built for it.

Tucked in the Hamptons, Shou Sugi Ban House nails the aesthetic without trying too hard. Minimalist, plant-based, and very hush-hush. It’s where you go when you want to feel like you’ve disappeared into a wellness ritual but still have a great robe and chef-grade miso waiting after. 👉 Explore the bathhouse →   Laura Adai Recipe of the Week Sautéed Broccoli Rabe (That Actually Tastes Amazing).

This book is about how tender, messy, and beautifully human we all are. The trio behind the hit podcast “We Can Do Hard Things” digs into 20 questions we all face, from “How do I know when to leave?” to “How do I love myself?” In asking these questions, the book reveals something deeper: how much we all long to feel seen, understood, and not alone. Part memoir, part manifesto, part conversation around the kitchen table, this book reminds us that strength is about truth-telling, connection, and compassion for our imperfect selves. 👉 Read the book →   Thank you for reading this issue of The Mindset!
