118. Hack Your Age?

Let's start with, What the Heck is a Hack?

A hack is a small change or a shortcut designed to improve your life.

Today's guest, Zora Benhamou, is the Queen of Midlife Health Hacks.

She's also someone who, despite living a very active life, ended up with osteoarthritis. 

She tried to avoid surgery for as long as possible. How was she able to do that? She used a few health hacks to get as much "life" out of her hips as possible.

She tried PRP, physical therapy, and an anti-inflammatory diet. On the podcast, she discusses a few more hacks that you've got to hear about!

Let's also talk about scars. Zora ended up with two hip replacements, and she tried a few different hacks to lessen her scarring. She used a copper peptide cream on one scar and a different product on the other. The copper peptide scar improved so much that she started using it on both wounds, and she's thrilled with the results!

I just bought this copper peptide cream, Zora suggested using the link below (20% off!)

____ Water Filtration: Boroux

I've been looking for a water filter for two years.

Okay, maybe I'm a little picky...but my research paid off.

I've chosen the Boroux Filter system and am really happy with it.

Are you curious about my criteria?

Here's what I was looking for in a filter:

Removal of heavy metals. The Boroux removes 99.36% of heavy metals.

Pharmaceuticals are removed. Because people don't dispose of drugs properly, the drugs get into our water system. The Boroux removes 99.5% of pharmaceutical contaminants.

Glyphosate removal (glyphosate is the active ingredient in Roundup and is a known carcinogen). A year ago, I was tested for glyphosate and was in the 95th percentile. I was shocked! Since I was already eating mainly organic, my doctor suggested getting a water filter. I had a challenging time finding one that would filter this chemical, and this was one of my main drivers for purchasing this filter.

Boroux has a special offer for my community. Click the link below to research and purchase. https://boroux.sjv.io/7aM1a3

____ Air Dr.

I've been using the Air Doctor air purifier for almost a year and absolutely love it! I first heard about it from Dr. Mark Hyman, and even though it was a bit of a splurge compared to what I usually spend, I'm so glad I invested. Every time I change the filter and see all the gunk it collects, I smile, knowing it's doing a great job keeping my air clean!

And I'm so happy that all that gunk isn't going into my body ;) Click here to purchase: https://airdoctorpro.com/?oid=17&affid=6165
