How a 55-Year-Old Single Mom is Aging in Reverse (And You Can, Too)

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by FORTUNE (@fortunemag)

Imagine this: a 55-year-old single mom, not a millionaire, not a tech giant, but someone just like many of us, is defying the odds of aging.

Julie Gibson Clark, living in Phoenix, is turning the tables on what it means to age gracefully. At 55, her biological age is actually decreasing, thanks to her lifestyle choices. This isn't just a claim; it's backed by her latest epigenetic DNA test results.

In the world of longevity, where spending millions is often seen as the key to reverse aging, Julie's story stands out. She's a shining star in the Rejuvenation Olympics, an online global competition tracking the aging process of more than 1750 people, where she's ranked second, surpassing even those who pour fortunes into anti-aging technologies.

Now, let's talk about how she's achieving this remarkable feat. It's not about spending thousands on the latest tech or exclusive treatments. Julie's approach is refreshingly simple and accessible. She spends a modest amount on a gym membership (under $30) and a supplement subscription from NOVOS.

Her core philosophy? It's about maintaining what you have, not waiting for it to break down. She's proactive, not reactive, when it comes to her health. This approach is something everyone can learn from. It's not about the money you throw at the problem; it's about the daily choices you make.

So, what does a day in Julie's life look like? It's surprisingly doable for most of us.

Her diet is rich in vegetables, around 16 ounces daily, including snacks like carrots, radishes, and peppers, and meals filled with salads and soups. She exercises about four times per week but doesn't stop there. Recovery techniques like cold showers and sauna sessions are also a part of her regular routine, practices I've long advocated for their profound health and longevity benefits.

When Julie commits to her exercise routine and her green-rich diet, she's doing so much more than chasing weight loss or basic nutritional goals. She's engaging in a holistic ritual that supercharges her gut health and immune system, slashes inflammation, and keeps both her body and mind in tip-top condition.

Julie's routine is a testament to the power of simple, consistent habits in transforming the health and aging process. It's a reminder that sometimes, the most effective solutions are the ones you overlook in your search for complex answers.

Product Of The Week

::: Sleep Deeper and Boost Your Focus with 15% off an Apollo Wearable :::

If you're all about optimizing your health and performance like I am, you're going to be stoked about what I've got for you today.

Let's talk about stress, sleep, energy, and focus. These are the pillars of peak performance in life, and let's face it, we all want to be firing on all cylinders, right?

That's where the Apollo wearable comes into play.

Developed by top-notch neuroscientists and physicians, this little wonder is not your average gadget; it's a game-changer that combines cutting-edge tech and old-as-time healing techniques.

Picture this: soothing waves of vibration called Apollo Vibes gently enveloping your body, reducing stress and promoting relaxation. It's like music you can feel, and it's backed by science. Higher vibrations boost your energy and focus, while lower ones help you unwind and find that inner calm. You feel like you've been handed a remote control for your mood and well-being.

Here's the beauty of it: wearing the Apollo wearable during the day and night is like getting the benefits of meditation and breathwork around the clock. Whether you're powering through your day or winding down at night, it's your go-to for enhanced focus, emotional balance, stress reduction, and better sleep.

What sets Apollo apart is that it's not just another fitness tracker— it actively strengthens your nervous system, not just monitors it. Wear it, feel the change, and see the benefits.

The science behind Apollo is the real deal. Created by experts in the field and tested in clinical trials, Apollo users experienced up to 40% less stress, up to 19% more deep sleep, an 11% increase in HRV, and up to 25% more focus and concentration. That's no small feat!

But there's more to the story. Apollo's journey began in a lab at the University of Pittsburgh, where a team of brilliant minds aimed to help veterans with treatment-resistant PTSD. This research led to the birth of Apollo Neuroscience, founded by Kathryn Fantauzzi and Dr. David Rabin.

So, if you're looking to take control of your well-being, consider the Apollo wearable. Think of it like having a personal coach for your nervous system, helping you unlock your full potential.

Ready to experience the power of Apollo for yourself? Don't miss out on this opportunity to enhance your stress relief, sleep, energy, and focus. It's time to elevate your well-being. Shop this exclusive offer and save 15% off an Apollo wearable today.
