Donald Trump defies the laws of aging. An obese, garbage food eating insomniac conquered the world at 78 (politics aside)
-
I didn't believe he would run again and when he did, I didn't believe he could maintain the pace. I found his entire run shocking. To perform at this level at 78 is incredible but I'm still expecting him to fall apart like Joe Biden did not long after getting elected.
I wonder what what happens if Trump goes senile like Biden. I doubt he'll accept it's time to offload important decisions. It will be interesting to watch.

I have no other explanation. He likes fast food, diet coke and barely sleeps.

It's the truth.

He doesn't drink. He's a puritan in some ways.
He's a born showman. He eats KFC to show he's one of us. When I eat healthy at home, I eat dirty outside. I have the license. Maybe Trump is like that as well.
But he is overweight and I could be wrong. But still, it's better he is stout than thin. As thinness belies a lot of muscle wasting going on in elderlies, to compensate for low blood sugar, and that increases cortisol and ammonia production, and the stress from that isn't life prolonging.

@Rah1woot Indeed. You have to agree that the man has led a stimulating and eventful life. He has a winner's mindset.

In line with Ray Peat's work, he always seems to be radiating energy and maybe that protected him rather than accelerating his rate of aging (rate of living theory contradiction).

@Peatful Like Warren Buffet and Charlie Munger, he is an unexerciser as well.

Since I've worked with the aging population for decades now. I can really say it's genetics and mindset.
You can manipulate it a bit with lifestyle but not much.

Do you share my opinion that he's performing at a remarkably high level for 78?

Yes!
Joe Rogan said he came in, shook his hand, talked for 3 hours without going to pee. Then left and also did not go to the bathroom and off he went on his plane to the next gig.
For a guy that age to not go to pee for 3.5 ish hours and concentrate on a discussion is completely out of the norm. -
I know from my high pee rate it's from having a working immune system and having toxins (heavy metals in my case) and a persistent internal low grade infection. Remove these and I'll have rem sleep like I was a child and have more energy during the day like Trump.

Fascinating and funny.

Maybe. But for a man pushing 80 not to have any prostate issues is unusual. -
@happyhanneke Ray says progesterone allows for enough hepcidin peptide to keep a check on free iron to keep bacteria at bay. Infection and inflammation is what causes prostate issues. And if Trump is sufficient in hormones and steroids as part of having good metabolic health, he won't have prostate cancer issues .
