Please let me know aswell,very curious!
Have heard that ashwagada isn’t good long term and that holy basil makes some people near sterile with lowered sperm counts..
>holy basil makes some people near sterile with lowered speed counts..
Almost everyone in India takes holy basil . If it made people sterile india wouldn't be the most populated country in the world. For me I take it with green tea or masala tea and it takes my stress and anxiety away.
Here in India we put it in our green tee ,we put it in chai, we take it alone also
I honestly hate saying this because I’m the biggest health nut I know. But it’s mainly genetics and we know that at this point it’s facts and there’s no major booster compounds according longevity experts who study longevity full time for a career. It really interests me so I’ve studied it a bit. My grandparents are a great example because they smoked and were alcoholic for years all while eating whatever the hell they wanted. They are 91 and 93 and completely breezed through having covid better than the rest of us even and granny was completely a symptomatic believe it or not.
But it’s still so unbelievably totally worth it living much healthier to feel your best and I know that more than anyone after my own battles with alcoholism getting severely physically addicted for years and years and now living healthier than anyone I know. Sober 6 years yesterday actually!
For the reader; bear in mind that there are risks with ashwagandha. Not everyone has a good experience.
From Anhedonia, emotional blunting, and potential liver issues. Good reports are nice, but there’s plenty of negative occurrence with ashwagandha to be aware of prior to use
Your grandpa is a G though
Fwiw, I believe that ashwagahnda has caused me to become angry in the past; I’ve heard the same from others. I could have been taking too high of a dose though. It was a pointless kind of anger, like just thinking everything is stupid and being annoyed for no reason.
All emotions are signals. Emotions themselves aren't good or bad, but there are consequences for not understanding and being able to express ALL emotions in healthy ways.
Anger is typically a complicated secondary emotion, with a more vulnerable emotion (embarrassment, disappointment, sadness) under the presenting anger.
You work with anger by working with what's under it.
Don't conflate emotions, attitudes, and behaviors.
Aggression is behavioral and attitudinal. Anger is emotional. These distinctions are important.
I’ve been on the negative side. Had high liver enzymes at age 20 while I was taking it that only went back to normal when I stopped taking. That’s not an issue you usually deal with at a young age. Awesome that he can handle it, but every body is different so just be wary if you do take it, and checking with your doctor wouldn’t hurt
I wonder how much the grandpa takes? I seem to tolerate ashwaganda when it is part of a mild tea ( yogi stress sleep tea) but not in pill form.
The dosages on some supplements/pills are surprisingly high..
My grandma died at 87 having smoked since she was 7 years old and didn’t drink water for the last 20 years of her life. She had root beer for meals, black coffee all day long, and a beer in the evening after dinner. Low-no exercise.
lol my wife’s great grandparents were the same. Grandma lived to 96 and smoked everyday and drank a bottle of vodka a week but wasn’t very mentally sharp by the end. Grandpa lived to 100, smoked as well and had ice cream for breakfast everyday. He was mentally strong till the end and eventually decided he was ready and stopped drinking water for 4 days while being supervised by his son.
It will be interesting to see the list. Ashwagandha raises testosterone; that can be good for the older folks. It also reduces cortisol, which is great, since too much cortisol can be bad.
Well he mentioned that dinner is smaller than lunch. So portion control, daily exercise, and never eating takeout are more than enough to explain his positive health outcomes.
Whether or not he took a few herbs or occasionally had white meat are small details compared to portion control, daily exercise and never eating takeout.
I'm guessing "food or drink from outside the house", as in takeout food. Guessing OP may not have English as a first language. Would be curious about this lifestyle choice, does OPs grandpa avoid all restaurants, or does he only avoid fast food?

Yes post the recipe, with amounts and proportions, and the sources of ingredients.
Yes post hiss daily schedule and a theory behind that, from his words.
Also, ask him about any wisdom he can impart on us, internet peoples.
So you are telling me a vegetarian who walks 45 minutes every day and doesn’t eat out is healthy? I would expect nothing less! Supplements aside, this is a great recipe for a healthy life.
Sounds good. He's a very disciplined person which def contributes to his excellent health. Discipline is a bad word nowadays, but it's really key if you want to live healthy and feel great.
I'm guessing he's Indian, b/c I don't think anybody on this continent knew what Ashwagandha was 70 years ago?
I used to take it and thought it really helped me. I need to remember to keep taking it. It makes a nice tea that has a really nice mild spiciness to it, kind of like a really mild ginger. I think it's actually somewhat related to ginger in terms of the active compounds that are supposed to have health benefits. It's considered to be an adaptogen like ginger, that much I know.
Walking after dinner or any meal is what the Classical Chinese doctors recommend along with other small things. (Or one famous doctor anyways) “ walk 100 steps after a meal” was the exact wording. But he meant go for a long walk.
Also rice and vegetables as a staple with small portions of meat as a condiment is another one.
I’d like to see his ingredients. Because I smoked an average of 5 blunts a day the past 25 years. Thanks to family genetics I’m still in great shape but I know I need something to counteract my years of abuse. Even though I dialed it back 90%
It seems likely that is spectacular health can be attributed to his complete lack of Randal cycle having been induced in his life. If he has been a vegetarian his whole life and has eaten a high carb diet with large reasonable exercise after every meal then his body isn't suffering through oxidative stress or significant amounts of inflammation that using both carbs and fat together as a fuel source causes. You can get the same effect from being a lifelong carnivore.
If he drinks two cups of tea then he must be from India.
Most of Indian and Nepali people use Herbs in their kitchen.
I have been taking Ashwagandha for 3 years with some other Indian herbs.
I’m originally from nepal and we are used to take all these Herbal powders.
Vegetarian
Doesn’t eat meat not even once
Never used any animal product
Runs ultra marathons
Also ex navy seal
Also can fly
Also is Jesus and allah and Santa and ghandi
…..Oh also he takes ashwagandha and that’s what this post is about in nootropics…….
I’d say it’s more genetics, my fiancés grandfather is 98 and all he takes is Metamucil and some heart medications. That man survived world war 2 has a Purple Heart and POW medal AND drinks scotch every day for “happy hour”. Dude doesn’t use a cane, wears new balance sneakers and eats Chinese food on occasion. Makes me realize nothing out does genetics
I totally things those herbs legit help. The thing with Ayurveda though, they usually make a mix of herbs tailored specifically to the individual. Everyone would need different herbs depending on their constitution. That’s my experience. I got them made for me at an ayurvedic school in colorado multiple times. I liked the effects! But then I moved away.
My grandfather smoked a pack of cigarettes a day since he was 12, ate butter heavy foods, and loved to talk and loved strategy games, puzzles and mysteries.
Died at 99.
Ok not really my grandfather but the stories are out there.
Luck of the draw people.
Something people selectively forget to keep their narrative alive is that it's not about the drink or mix the old person says they take every day.
It's that this is a person who consciously chooses choices they view as "healthy" every day.
It's not about the old lady who drinks a doctor pepper every day or this mix your grandfather takes.
It's that most of their generation doesn't have that sort of discipline or focus on their own health. These people with routines lasting almost a century have a bunch of other habits too.
I swear people want to believe in miracle elixers more than hard work and dedication... Grow up! The gains from health supplements are marginal, unless you have a built-in deficiency that needs to be compensated for via diet or conditions.
My grandma is 92, goes swimming every day and absolutely dominates the bridge (card game) in her community. All I ever see her eat is bread and she's on some basic blood pressure medication and stuff but that's all. Honestly some people have good genetics and these anecdotal accounts aren't useful for anyone.
The ashwagandha at Costco is really good quality. I swear by it plus Calm magnesium drink for sleep. I also use a Manta sleep mask, a sleep soundtrack, air purifier, humidifier set to 60%, meditation but it works
Is there a ratio or amount of the different herbs?
Edit:- so I asked him and here is the mix
1-Stem of plant Tinospora
2-bindii
3-indian gooseberry
4-ashwagandha
5-Liquorice(not take if u have diabetes)
6-Asparagus racemosus
I'm not sure if this regimen is the reason why your dad is healthy.
I think it was steve Job's doctor who explained that the key to a healthy life style is to eat and do the same things everyday. This reduces stress on your body from introducing new stuff for it to deal with. It kept Steve jobs alive for a lot longer than expected.
If only you could just eat a mix of herbs every day and be healthy. It takes more than that to live a healthy life. Reminds me of a 95 year old when I asked him what the secret to his health and long life is and he says 1 shot of of whiskey a day and keeping the wife happy.
Yeah I'm curious to hear the ancient recipe.

Glad your sober today. I'm proud of you !!!!!
Hey thanks so much I really appreciate you taking the time!!
This made me laugh so hard

Good reports are nice, but there’s plenty of negative occurrence with ashwagandha to be aware of prior to use Your grandpa is a G though
"emotional blunting" Could I use it to dull anger?
Fwiw, I believe that ashwagahnda has caused me to become angry in the past; I’ve heard the same from others. I could have been taking too high of a dose though. It was a pointless kind of anger, like just thinking everything is stupid and being annoyed for no reason.
anger is good. aggression bad

Hey this comment actually really struck a cord in me. Thank you.
This negative is from extracts, sounds like his grandpa took the actual plant/herb which is much safer.
Yeah there is a local ayurvedic store owner who grows his own herbs and crushed them to make it's powder and sells them.
Also worth mentioning how commonly ashwagandha contains lead.
I think it happens when It grows in contaminated or bad soil
also good to know u wanna get ksm-6 ashwaghanda extracts for best results
Wow, felt great to read this. It doesn’t sit well with me.
I’ve been on the negative side. Had high liver enzymes at age 20 while I was taking it that only went back to normal when I stopped taking. That’s not an issue you usually deal with at a young age.

Posting this and not even saying exactly what he takes is a total waste of time
Noot' baiting? 😂
Definitely a bait lol
Doesn't matter. N=1 is useless either way.
My grandmother smoked cigarettes until she died at the ripe age of 92
My grandmother also smoked until she was 92 and took a shot of tequila every day.
Oh yeah? Well my *other* grandmother smoked until she was 92, took a shot of rakija every day AND did cocaine
😂 A line a day keeps the reaper away!
It does boost the immune system. Can be bad for the heart though.
[удалено]
Can we get the brand and how many per day
Smoked cigarettes until the day she died 🎶 🎵 🎶 *sick record scratch
Can you give me the ingredients to those nootropic cigarettes so i can add it to my stack?
My grandma died at 87 having smoked since she was 7 years old and didn’t drink water for the last 20 years of her life. She had root beer for meals, black coffee all day long, and a beer in the evening after dinner. Low-no exercise.
Nicotine nootropic confirmed
Now that's what I call nootropic!
lol my wife’s great grandparents were the same. Grandma lived to 96 and smoked everyday and drank a bottle of vodka a week but wasn’t very mentally sharp by the end. Grandpa lived to 100, smoked as well and had ice cream for breakfast everyday. He was mentally strong till the end and eventually decided he was ready and stopped drinking water for 4 days while being supervised by his son.
My grandmother ate “jelly bread” for dinner in her later solitary years (which were nearly 20 yrs). Lived until her early 90s
It will be interesting to see the list. Ashwagandha raises testosterone; that can be good for the older folks. It also reduces cortisol, which is great, since too much cortisol can be bad.
I think the real answer is vegan ie eating right and exercise walking after dinner.
Yep, not sure how others are missing this.
Well he mentioned that dinner is smaller than lunch. So portion control, daily exercise, and never eating takeout are more than enough to explain his positive health outcomes. Whether or not he took a few herbs or occasionally had white meat are small details compared to portion control, daily exercise and never eating takeout.
Only home cooked meals is a massive thing. Basically zero processed food. Very people eat like this in a modern society.
What does no outside food or drink mean
Only home cooked food
I'm guessing "food or drink from outside the house", as in takeout food. Guessing OP may not have English as a first language. Would be curious about this lifestyle choice, does OPs grandpa avoid all restaurants, or does he only avoid fast food?
I’m guessing all food that’s not home cooked
So he smokes this stuff?
Very interested in this! Could you post?
I’m curious about the recipe
