-
5 g creatine

50-100 mg caffeine (a small cup of coffee or in time-release tablets)
-
1 serving ketone esters
-
10 g essential amino acids and
- ½ teaspoon sodium bicarbonate (baking soda).
-
- 3–9.5 g of creatine monohydrate per day for 7–52 weeks alongside resistance training is BOMB, especially for seniors looking for muscle gain/maintenance. Read more here…34:41

I used to work with Dr. Ruth Patrick who lived to be over 100. She’s not as well known as she should have been, but she was a contemporary of Rachel Carson and was an early woman environmental scientist. She accredited her ability to live so long to eating hot dogs from the museum cafeteria at lunch…so you know, take that longevity foods study with a grain of salt. She DID have a mission in life and was actually still coming to the office at 100, but very part-time at that point. So it was probably that that was the TRUE secret, but all those hot dogs didn’t stop her.
I have lost so much respect for you for getting the shot. This isn’t even a vaccine. It is a bioweapon and changes your DNA. I cannot believe you study so much about health and now have willingly been a part of being the experiment as a pawn for the most crooked, corrupt president in history. No words. I pray that your children will not get the vaccine! And I am wondering if you wear a mask as well? Outside?
Ben,
Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
