Try to become part of the evidence-based nutrition movement.

Things are improving (slowly) through online forums, and MDs and PhDs creating content (like youtube, blogs, etc).

Heck, just be part of the longevity movement that is trying to do something about aging itself.

Valter Longo? Nutrition science is fuzzy. It isn't like physics or mathematics. Water fasting, calorie restriction[2], keeping your protein low and having a joyful life[1] seem convincing to me (Blue Zones), but I am yet another layman here.

Thanks. I didn't know about Valter Longo. Will sure check his content. I was mainly referring to folks like Peter Attia, Rhonda Patrick, etc.

For longevity, check out SENS foundation (and Aubrey de Grey).
