4 Things Killing Your Cells (And 5 Levers That Reverse It)

Are you eating well, moving your body, and trying to sleep better — but still feeling older than you should? Stiffer joints, lower energy, and a sense that the last few years have aged you faster than the years before? That feeling has a cause, and it is not laziness or bad genetics. In this episode, we dive into why aging happens inside your cells first, and how your body catches up later. I walk through the 4 specific drivers that accelerate cellular aging and the 5 evidence-backed levers you can use to slow — and in some cases reverse — that process. Stay until the end for the clinical trial where participants did not just slow cellular aging… but after five years, they measurably turned it backward. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why your biological age — not the number on your driver's license — determines how you feel, think, and move• The 4 key mechanisms breaking down your cells right now, including telomere shortening, mitochondrial decline, slowed autophagy, and senescent cell buildup• How telomeres work like the plastic tips on a shoelace, and why emotional stress wears them down faster than almost anything else• What autophagy is, why your cellular cleanup crew slows with age, and how to switch it back on• Why resistance training is the single most powerful tool for building new mitochondria and slowing cellular aging• The specific fats that keep your cell membranes flexible and springy — and the ones that make them brittle• How deep sleep triggers growth hormone release, clears damaged proteins, and runs the brain's overnight repair cycle• The 9 blood biomarkers from a 2018 study in the journal Aging that predict longevity better than chronological age• The five-year lifestyle trial where one group lengthened their telomeres by 10% while the control group's shortened by 3% Download the FREE "Cellular Repair Guide" here: https://guide.thehealthinstitute.com/l-386 Find out what's really happening inside your body with advanced at-home biomarker testing — which includes a 60 minute consultation to review your results and learn about our cellular healing protocols at The Health Institute → http://mybloodwork.com Thank you to our sponsors!

  Hey, are you doing all of the things you're supposed to do? You're eating well, you're walking, you're trying to sleep better, and you still feel older than you should. Maybe your joints are more stiff, you're more tired than you know you should be. You just even feel like you've aged a little faster over the past couple of years than you had in recent years. I need you to hear something. That's not laziness, that's not weakness. What's typically happening is there is something breaking down at a level below anything else you can see, and it's inside your cells. And over the next 25 minutes, I'm going to show you the four things aging your cells right now, and the five levers that are going to reverse them completely with the studies to prove each and every one of them.

• 0:40Josh Axe?

  And stay tuned till the end, because I'm going to show you at the end, a trial where people didn't just slow down cellular aging, they measurably turned it backwards in just five years. Welcome to the Dr. Axe Show.

• 1:08Josh Axe?

  All right, so let me start with an idea that might reframe everything for you. Aging doesn't happen to your body, it happens to your cells. And then your body catches up. You have around 30 trillion cells in your body. Every wrinkle, every ache, every foggy afternoon is the visible result of something that went wrong at that level first. Which, by the way, is good news, because the cell is a place you can actually reach. Think about how crazy this is. For some people, there could be a 20-year gap in how they look in terms of their age. There are people right now that are 45, and they look like they're 35. And there are people that are 45, and they might look like they're 45.

• 1:48Josh Axe?

  They have the exact same birthday, yet there is a 20-year gap in their fitness level, their health, the way their mind works. When you look at them, you could think that they are 10 years younger or older than their actual driver's license. And there's a reason for that, and it has everything to do with how well your cells are aging. And if you're a person that wants to be in your 60s, 70s, 80s, active with your grandkids, like my parents right now are in their mid 70s, my dad moving into his late 70s. They're water skiing, they're walking and jogging, they're working out. They are very physically fit and active, and there's a reason for that, because we focused on reducing their cellular age and keeping them young. And then again, I know there's a lot of people, I actually want to share with you a story, this happened recently.

• 2:32Josh Axe?

  Last winter, we were in Florida, we were down in West Palm Beach. We went down there, because my sister went to school and college down there, and we thought it'd be fun to do a week in the winter with my family as a kind of a family vacation down there. My side of the family, so my mom and dad. And so we were going out to dinner, and my dad went to open the door for a man who was on a walker. And to my daddy, he said, "Thank you, young man." And my dad laughed for a minute, he said, "Well, you know, I might be as old as you." And the crazy part was, he goes, "Well, I doubt that." He goes, "I'm 76." And my dad said, "Well, I just turned 76 here about nine months ago." And so my dad was actually older than this man by a few months. They ended up talking for about five to 10 minutes, because it was very random. I knew his son from school.

• 3:17Josh Axe?

  But overall, I just want to say, this man at 76 looked more like he was closer to 90. And my dad, at 76, looked closer like he was probably 60 years old. I mean, it really felt like there was more like a 30-year age gap between those two people. But there are very, very specific reasons for that. By the way, I want to say this, I don't know if I've ever shared this. My dad has always been like a meat and potatoes guy. Okay, so even when everybody was switching to margarine, my dad just kept with butter. He turned out to be right there. But all that being said, when my mom was diagnosed with cancer 20 years ago, and beat cancer naturally, my dad adopted the same diet. And so my dad, ever since then, like my mom, has been eating berries every single morning for breakfast,

• 3:58Josh Axe?

  eating wild-caught salmon, doing grass-fed beef, doing pastured eggs, doing loads of vegetables. That's been part of his diet. And it's a big part of why now in his 70s, he is still so physically young, lifting weights, water skiing, being active with his grandkids. And the earlier you can start to reverse your cellular age, the better. And here's the reality, your cells keep the real score. And one of the best ways to look at your current cellular age is to get the right type of blood work done. In fact, there was a study done in 2018 in the medical journal called Aging. And they looked at nine biomarkers, and they found that if somebody kept these biomarkers intact and very young and in balance, these people would age very slowly versus if they got out of control,

• 4:43Josh Axe?

  or they went up at all, the other group would age much more quickly. Some of those lab markers were things like fasting glucose, right? So you're looking at your blood sugar, CRP, looking at inflammation, looking at your white blood cells, so looking at the health of your immune system. They were looking at these different markers, and they found that it actually determined your longevity and your health better than your actual age on your driver's license. And by the way, one of the things I start to hear over time, sometimes people say is, "Well, like, hey, I got bad genetics." Like, "My mom had this issue," or "My dad had this issue," and "I have these bad genes." You know, there was actually a study done on this, okay? And here's a number that changes some of this conversation, all right? What they found is, they did a study on twins. And here's what they found.

• 5:28Josh Axe?

  So, research on twins in long-lived families suggests only about a quarter of how you age is written into your genetics, which a lot of those genetics you can turn on and off. But the majority, 75 to 80%, okay, of the way you age is due to your lifestyle. Are you exercising? Are you eating well? Are you supplementing correctly? Are you keeping stress low? Are you sleeping well? These are the things that truly determine how you age because of how they impact your cells. Now, before I dive deeper, I want to ask you for a quick favor.

• 7:12Josh Axe?

  So there are four places that aging is happening in your cells the most, okay? Your mitochondria, okay, that's a big one, they stop making good energy. Another area is called your telomeres, all right? Those start to fray and shorten. Your cleanup crew slows down, that's another one. Those are called your lysosomes, those are responsible for something called autophagy. And then the other area is broken cells stop dying when they should. And that's related to something called senescent cells, or zombie cells, that cause you to age. So let's dive into driver number one, your power plants are failing. Inside almost every cell, you've got hundreds, if not thousands, of mitochondria. These are the power plants that turn food and oxygen into energy.

• 7:51Josh Axe?

  As they get damaged, they make less energy and more oxidative exhaust, damaging cells further. And some of the symptoms around this, that you might have this issue, is you are fatigued, and sleep doesn't fix it. And you get crashing in the afternoon, you wake up, but basically poor sleep. And even when you do sleep, you're still tired. This is also why your muscles, your brain, and your heart start to have problems. Those are the most energy-hungry tissues that are highest in mitochondria. And so they're the first place you'll start to feel aging when you have mitochondrial damage. The number two thing that's causing your cells to age too quickly is your DNA caps, they're starting to fray and wear down, okay?

• 8:35Josh Axe?

  At the end of every chromosome sits a protective cap, it's called your telomeres. By the way, the first tests that were done to be able to really determine between your chronological and biological age, were really done on telomere length. So if you think about it like this, you know, you've got these plastic tips at the end of your shoelaces, okay? Every time a cell divides, that cap, that plastic cap, gets shorter and shorter. Now, let me ask you this, what happens? Have you ever had one of those plastic tips on the end of your shoelace come off or break? Now, I haven't had this happen in years, but I remember as a kid this happening. When that finally broke, my entire shoelace started to fray, and I needed to get a new shoelace. That's what happens in your body. When these telomeres, when these caps start to wear down...

• 9:22Josh Axe?

  It's like your cells start to break down and fray. This is why you need to have these longer telomeres. And the longer they are, typically it means the younger you are physiologically and at the cellular level. And the thing that actually wears down your telomeres the fastest is emotional stress. If you are really emotionally stressed out, if you're not sleeping well, those will really wear down those telomeres very, very quickly. Number three thing that is causing your cells to age too quickly is your cleanup crew is slowed down. These lysosomes, these areas of your cell are no longer recycling well. And this is actually a process called autophagy. It literally means self-eating. So what happens is you have these lysosomes in your cell. They hunt down damaged parts. Okay. They then break them down.

• 10:07Josh Axe?

  So think about you've got a car that's like, you know, the engine's broken down, part of its junk. Well, these lysosomes will go and take the parts of the car that are still good. It'll get rid of the bad parts. It'll throw them in the dumpster and it will take the parts that are still usable and use it to create new parts of the body, like new mitochondria. As you age, that system gets worse and worse and worse. By the way, the number one way to activate this type of autophagy is via fasting. And there are certain foods, like especially vegetables and certain fruits that will turn it on as well. But really you need this self-cleaning and self-recycling system working or you will age much, much more quickly. And the number four driver of cellular aging is this, you have cells that actually won't die.

• 10:52Josh Axe?

  They're called zombie cells or senescent cells. And normally a damaged cell either repairs itself or it dies on purpose and then your body gets rid of it. But some of them get stuck in between. They're somewhat alive, but they're unable to divide. They're unable to function properly. And so they just sort of take up space. Imagine you've got a big city and there are broken down cars everywhere. And so you can't even get to where you want to go. That's what senescent cells are. They're like zombies and they don't just sit there, by the way, as well. They leak inflammatory signals that damage healthy cells around them. If you've ever been around a really negative person, okay. Some of those sort of a leech that sucked out your energy. It's like that.

• 11:35Josh Axe?

  You've got all these other healthy cells doing their thing, trying to, you know, change the world, do something good. And you have the one negative person dragging everyone else down. That's what a senescent cell is and it's doing it inside your body right now. So one of the greatest things you can do is follow a diet and lifestyle that helps your body get rid of these senescent cells. And again, an anti-inflammatory diet is probably one of the single greatest things you could do to start to eliminate the senescent cells out of your body. And as I mentioned, a few bad cells age the entire neighborhood. In one study done on animals, here's what they found. Removing senescent cells extended the lifespan of the other healthy cells and of the animal

• 12:20Josh Axe?

  by 24 to 27%. They also noticed that the heart, the kidneys and the fat tissue of the animal were younger when the senescent cells were removed. And so now let me walk you through exactly how to start to reverse your cellular age. Number one, lift something heavy. By the way, I feel like this is one that not everybody loves or wants to do. And let me share this with my own mother. Okay. My mom, again, I think she's 74, very healthy, very fit. My mom does not like lifting weights. My mom likes walking. My mom doesn't mind a little bit of light cardio. She doesn't like weight training, but we make her do it.

• 13:03Josh Axe?

  My dad and her, we really, and she's like, what's the minimum I can get away with? We're like two days a week. Okay. You can do an upper body or lower body or a push or pull day. But you know, 30, 45 minutes doing some weights for your bone density, for your mitochondria, for your immune system. It makes such a big difference lifting weights. Here's the reason why it is so impactful at reversing the aging process and keeping you young. Resistance training builds new mitochondria more than anything else could. I mentioned this before. Mitochondria are found in the highest levels in your brain and your heart. You might know this, your heart's primarily a muscle and your other muscles. Okay. They're very, very mitochondrial dense.

• 13:44Josh Axe?

  And so the fastest way to add more mitochondria is to add more muscle and strength to your body. The fastest way to add more mitochondria. This is going to give you energy. Your muscle also acts like an organ. It balances your blood sugar. It does so many things for your health. It makes you less frail. Your muscle is a longevity organ. So lifting weights, doing any type of resistance training is the number one way to build your mitochondrial health. Now I do want to say this, you also don't want to injure yourself, but you do want to move weight and add on muscle. Listen, if you have never had anybody walk you through this, do your best, even if it's just one time or a handful of times, or maybe it's once a week, but get a personal trainer. Have somebody walk you through a program of weightlifting that's going to be best for you.

• 14:29Josh Axe?

  And listen, I don't care if you're using dumbbells at home or you're using machines or you're using resistance bands, any of those things, resistance training to build muscle, the fastest way, maybe the single best way in order to add more mitochondria to your body. The number two thing that makes a big difference is give yourselves a break from food and eat more fruits and vegetables. Autophagy, this is your body's cleanup crew. It turns on when you stop eating. If you're eating from seven AM in the morning to 10 PM at night, you're never giving your body a window to rest. And so you can cut that window down and generally eat more fruits and vegetables, which have some autophagy acting properties. Now listen, fasting isn't for everybody.

• 15:11Josh Axe?

  If you're pregnant, if you are underweight, if you've got really cold extremities and severe hypothyroidism or chronic fatigue syndrome, or even diabetic, you gotta be careful with this or you don't want to do it. But a lot of times, you know, eating breakfast closer to eight or nine and eating an early dinner around five, and then just loading up on the fruits and vegetables, that can make a difference. Number three way to start to reverse your cellular age is feed the repair, not the damage. So remember this, you are what you eat. And this is especially true when you're eating healthy fat. Okay. If you're eating processed fat, if you're eating processed industrial seed oils, if you're using a lot of, doing a lot of saturated fat, especially found in fast food restaurants, if you're eating that type of fat constantly, your cells become rigid.

• 15:56Josh Axe?

  And if you eat that sort of fat and then there's a lot of oxidative stress from sugar, so bad fats and sugar together, emotional stress, it will cause your cells to become very brittle and hard. You want your cells, you have this membrane around your cell, it's called your cell membrane. It should be very flexible and buoyant. Think about like a trampoline or think about, you know, a child, how springy their bodies are, how fast they bounce back. For some, when you get older, you get more stiff, you don't move as well. You want your cells to be pliable, moldable, springy, like a trampoline. Certain foods allow for that springiness. The top of the top, omega three fatty acids. Along with that, some of the monoinsaturated, it's from extra virgin olive oil, phospholipids

• 16:41Josh Axe?

  from egg yolks and sulfur rich foods. So you want to get a lot of good, healthy fats in your diet. That's going to help heal up that cell membrane, but especially omega threes, right? Salmon, sardines, mackerel. And then, you know, walnuts, flax seeds, those are also beneficial as well, not quite as beneficial as salmon, but still very, very helpful. But get those good, healthy fatty acids. Number four, protect your sleep, especially your deep sleep. Sleep is when repair actually happens. It's when your growth hormones pulse. It's when damaged proteins get cleared out. It's when your brain runs a rinse cycle that only opens up when you're unconscious.

• 17:24Josh Axe?

  Short or broken sleep doesn't make you tired. It cancels the repair shift. You can do everything else right and still lose ground. So getting deep sleep, this is one reason I wear an Oura ring every night when I sleep and I look at my sleep and see where my deep sleep is. And if it's not good, I go to bed earlier, I change the way I'm eating or realize I'm a little too stressed, so I need to take more time off. But getting deep sleep, ideally at least one hour, ideally over 90 minutes a night will allow your body to fully repair and heal.

• 17:56Josh Axe?

  The biggest myth about inflammation and chronic symptoms is that they're all separate issues. In reality, your symptoms behave more like a chain of falling dominos. When one goes down, it triggers several more. And before you know it, everything feels off. This new test completely changes things and I know exactly what to look for. I'm currently offering a simple at-home blood test that actually tests for the right things, targeted biomarkers that reveal the very first dominoes impacting your hormones, inflammation, your thyroid and your metabolism. Plus a full hour with one of my senior health advisors to review your results and show

• 18:53Josh Axe?

  And your number five lever at reversing cellular age and allowing your body to become younger is take the load off your nerve system. Chronic stress, more than anything, shortens your telomeres, which means calming your nerve system, getting out of a fight or flight state is the cure. Daily prayer, breath work, meditation, deep reading, real time outside, boundaries around your phone, spending time with people you love and that bring you joy. This is where faith carries weight that actually shows up in your biology. By the way, there was a study on this, okay? The most stressed people, when we looked at cellular

• 19:34Josh Axe?

  aging, were anywhere from nine to 17 years older than other people. So, one of the greatest things you could ever do to slow the aging process and reverse it is have practices in your life that build peace and get you out of a fight or flight state. That means saying no more often knowing your priorities, spending more time. Again, like for me, I'll just share the things that allows me to get out of the fight or flight state is one, not overpacking my schedule, okay? Saying yes to everything instead saying, you know what, I'm going to prioritize time with family, prioritize time with God, spend some time with friends, and I'm going to, you know, work doing the things that move the needle the most, but I'm going to protect my time. I'm not going to overwork. I'm not going to be working after

• 20:17Josh Axe?

  dinner. I'm not going to wake up and do that first thing. I am protecting my time. That is one of the biggest things. And then implementing into my daily routine, I'll just share a couple things here. If I start off, first thing I wake up in the morning, I look at my phone, I dive into work and emails, that stresses me out. And then after dinner, if I spend time working, that stresses me out. I have found for myself, if I wake up in the morning and the first thing I do is not rush, but I open my Bible, I pray, I read, I spend about 30 minutes with God, and then I connect with my family, maybe go on a walk, and then I jump into my day, that keeps stress so lower. Or after dinner, okay, once dinner hits, same thing, time with family. We may watch a show, I'm going to put my blue blockers, read a book,

• 20:58Josh Axe?

  just connect with family and maybe read a spiritual book or listen to my Bible before bed for 30 minutes, something like that. I have so much peace. I have so much rest. I'm not in fight or flight state. I can be fairly on and focused from, let's say, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and get a lot of work done. But if I start creeping work into the weekends, if I start creeping work into the morning and the evening, that's where it shows up for me. Now, you might be different, but for me, I found it makes all the difference in the world for myself, for my stress levels, when my mornings, my evenings, and at least one day on the weekend is protected as a Sabbath. Now, here's the good news I really want to share with you. Listen to this. Your cells can get younger. If you're feeling age, if you're feeling it

• 21:41Josh Axe?

  in your joints, if you're seeing it in your skin, you're feeling it in your body, your cells can reverse age. By the way, I covered this in depth in my book, Heal Your Cells. Dr. Will Cole and I wrote a book all about how to reverse your cellular age. The reviews we've had from the people that have read it have been immense. You can go and check out the book. It's called Heal Your Cells. But listen to this study. After five years, a group that focused on improving their lifestyle, found that their telomeres had lengthened by about 10%, and the control groups shortened by 3%. That was a difference in five years of age. So, that's equivalent to reversing age by more than five years. Think about it.

• 22:21Josh Axe?

  It was a five-year study. And after five years of life, their telomeres got longer. So, they reversed it. So, they might have reversed their age by 10 years. And I've seen this in patients. I've seen patients come into my clinic, exhausted, inflamed, feeling older, you know, they've had old sports injuries from high school, not able to run around with their kids. And after a year of doing all the right things, they're active, they're healthy, they feel 10 to 20 years younger, and you can experience the very same thing. And there are five big ways to do that. I'm going to share with you now. But again, if you want to really learn how to do this in depth, check out the book Heal Your Cells. Okay, here's the five things. Number one, do some weight training. Be more active. I would say weight, train, and walk. That combination, it's powerful. Number two, you know, you could

• 23:06Josh Axe?

  do some intermittent fasting, but at the very least, more omega-3s, more fruits, more vegetables. Number three, more protein, more fiber. That's going to make a big difference in your diet life. Number four, get deep sleep. And number five, support your nervous system recovery, right? Get out of the fight or flight state. Daily prayer, time outside, connect and have fun with people. These will make an immense difference in your health and your life. You know, I love what 2 Corinthians 4:16 says. It says this, "Therefore, we do not lose heart, though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day." Now, here's the truth. The more you're renewed internally, the more you're going to

• 23:48Josh Axe?

  start to see it on the outside. All right. So, try this this week. Do two sessions of strength training. All right. If you don't know how to do that, get a trainer, have a friend who knows about fitness, walk you through a sample workout and start going two days a week. Next, finish dinner three hours before bed and try and add more of these healthy foods into your diet, right? More protein, maybe some salmon, some more vegetables. And last, optimize your sleep and build peace, right? So, try and wake up at the same time, go to bed at the same time, and have those practices right when you wake up and right before bed. Maybe it's just 10 minutes of reading a Bible, listening to the Bible on audio, just to reset your body in your day. It's going to help you heal, and it's going

• 24:32Josh Axe?

  to help you reverse your cellular age. And if you forget everything else from today, remember this, your cells are not a fixed schedule. They're responding every day to how you eat, how you move, how you sleep, and how you carry stress. And you're not just slowing down the clock. Under the right conditions, you can actually reverse your age and look and feel and actually be younger. All right, two ways to go deeper here. First, I created a free PDF for you. Now, this is typically worth $100, but it's free. It's called My Cellular Healing Guide. And so, if you want to learn exactly how to optimize the health of your cells and what the diet looks like, what the supplements look like, it's free in the show notes. So, you can go to the show notes right now and download
