Buyer beware....Prevagen, the jellyfish protein pill that promises sharper memory. The FTC and New York’s attorney general called it out for making bogus claims. Quincy Bioscience, the company behind it, settled a lawsuit in 2020. Did they quit aggressively marketing it? Nope. They slapped on a confusing disclaimer about “subgroups of individuals” and kept rolling. Consumers lost. The company won.

Legendary on film and just as legendary for conservation and preservation, Redford believed deeply that open space and Nature are inseparable from quality of life. He once said he would not have made it in Hollywood without easy access to Wilderness. Considering the brief time we have, what matters more—the news channel you watch, or Nature, quality of life, your health, functionality, and how you are maneuvering the aging process?

Cold weather fishing on a Google search gives you advice on gear and adapting your techniques. “Cold weather fishing requires adapting your techniques, targeting warmer water areas, using slower presentations, and considering live bait instead of lures, as fish metabolism slows down in colder temperatures.” What about your metabolism? Before you even consider presentations, keeping ice out of your guides, the right flies or (heaven forbid) switching to live bait, think more foundationally. Assess your physical condition.

Not following the crowd may mean more effort......“Any human being who does not wish to be part of the masses need only stop making things easy for himself.” Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900).

As we age, ideally, we wise up. With increased clarity, we begin to see our options. That is a good thing. Just as on a stream, fewer options can force us to get creative. What I offer in The Ageless Angler is inspiration and a supportive framework for your creativity. The word inspire comes from the Latin inspirare, meaning “to breathe into.” It originally referred to the idea of external forces filling a person with energy and creativity.

The human body has a remarkable ability to heal itself. You slice open your knee, an Urgent Care angel stitches it up. The healing part is invisible. Unknowable forces of Nature course through your body, steering your endowed biology toward healing. But as we age, our biology dulls. Healing slows. The processes that keep us strong, vigorous, spry, resilient and vital diminish. Immune functions, biological healing, rebuilding and recycling (of senescent cells) becomes less robust with age. But you have agency over how you age.........

Functional medicine tells us that many ‘diseases of aging’ have the same root cause and addressing the root cause halts further progression and helps reverse course. Our responsibility for aging well is attending to major root causes. Not through prescriptions or ubiquitous pain relievers—these ‘fixes’ only suppress the symptoms. To reduce our risk of over 100 different age-related diseases.......
