What it's for

Adults 30+ noticing skin changes, women with hair-density concerns, those preferring oral over topical.

Ultra-processed foods, refined sugars, excess alcohol, inflammatory seed oils

Pattern

3 balanced meals with protein at each. Avoid eating within 2 hours of sleep.

🏋️ Workout that fits

Best

🚶 Activity & lifestyle

Add

Daily sunlight exposure (15–20 minutes), adequate hydration (2–3L), stress-reduction practice

Reduce

Processed food consumption, prolonged sitting, late-night screen time

Bedroom

7–9 hours sleep; all supplements work better with adequate rest.
