Dear Super Agers,

I have a new theory and it’s called the "It’s Not Too Late Theory." Many of the stories we tell ourselves are around limits. It’s too late to get fit. It’s too late to get married again. It’s too late to save for my retirement. It’s too late to learn a new skill. It's too late to start a new career. Maybe… but probably not.

At 50, having been in a hospital for a year, I began my journey toward being physically fit. At 56, I started AGEIST, having almost no knowledge of any of the skills I use today. At 58, terrified, I gave a TEDx talk in front of 4,000 people, having never spoken on stage before. At 66, with considerable doubt, I launched this new endeavor: Super Age, which now has over 1.2 million readers.

I am not all that special. I've spent my life interviewing hundreds of regular people our age who are not done yet. They understand clearly that the future is what you make of it. You can start an entirely new chapter at pretty much any age you decide, and what that chapter looks like is up to you. Sure, there are limits, but there are not nearly as many as you may be telling yourself.

Onward and upward,

The Unsung Molecule That Powers Your Brain

By the time you hit 40, your body produces 50% less nitric oxide (NO), a little-known molecule with a massive role in energy, blood flow, memory, mood, and even sexual health. NO acts as a vasodilator, delivering oxygen and nutrients to your brain and muscles. It helps generate cellular energy (ATP), supports mitochondrial health, and even impacts your hormones. But many people are functionally deficient in this key driver of health and vibrancy. Click here to restore your nitric oxide levels and reclaim your brain power.
