This process and drive to better myself led me to use every protein powder under the sun, every nootropic under the sun, and even every pre-workout under the sun regardless of how sketchy the ingredients were.
Now some of those probably weren't the best ideas I've ever had and while I did see decent results with the physical performance-based supplements and even some good but fleeting results regarding the mental focus/alertness based supplements...
I'd never been blown away by any anti-aging product.
They all seem to be pure hype and based off theoretical assumptions whose only advocates where the sales people pushing their creams or "lemon infused" blah blah.
I was a skeptic of the field in general to put it lightly.
But one emerging supplement changed everything...
My Intro to Ultra-Spermidine & LZR LABS
I happen to be listening to one of my favorite podcasts, Found My Fitness, on the way to a popular fitness expo in Southern California.
In the episode I was listening to the guest who was going on about senescent cells and cancer and aging and fasting and all the inflammation and whatnot... admittedly a lot of it was over my head.
But much of it was things I had already known about how our cells age and what we can and can't (or so I thought) do about it.
I remember them mentioning spermidine more than I remember 90% of the rest of the podcast.
Of course, that's because I'm quite immature apparently and the name made me grin and more importantly, remember that word.
And I'm glad I did remember that word because almost as soon as I got into the fitness expo I saw a large but modest booth and right then and there I that word was in my brain again.
Naturally, I approached the booth to find out they were a smallish independent lab / nutraceutical company that specializes in cutting edge compounds (LZR Labs).
All I wanted to know about was the guy's shirt, adorning the name of their newest and most popular compound supplement "Ultra-Spermidine".
After about 20 minutes of talking to this small crew I could tell they knew their stuff.
It was a lot of information to take in but if I could take away anything from it it would be that Ultra-Spermidine allows for cell clearance in a way similar to long term fasting only without having to fast (sounds too good to be true, right?).
But the science behind spermidine had a lot of potential and so I bit and purchased a month's worth for about $80.
Ultra-Spermidine Experience
Just a week after the expo I was starting to suspect I wasn't going to see or feel results, not that the lab gyped me, but more so because how does one even "feel anti-aging" anyway?
But I was content with the fact my damaged cells were being cleared and not just causing mayhem (and possibly disease etc).
Then in week two to three I DID start to feel things.
I must have had a lot of crud to clear out as far as senescent cells because while I started feeling the benefits around week three things kept getting better.
My skin cells seemed like they were turning over like crazy and my complexion hadn't looked that good since - literally ever. I didn't know what to say.
Maybe that alone upshot my confidence or whatever but I also had this energy about me that people at work picked up on - and not like caffeine buzz energy either but very sustainable and feeling amazing.
I remembered the representative at the expo telling me that some of the best results would come in a two to three-month window, but I honestly thought he was just trying to sell me more.
Well shit, I should have believed him because I had to get it at their online store 😂... the not funny part was the price had gone up but I guess if they were getting more customers I should just be lucky they were in stock at all.
Also, the guy was right...
I STOPPED having morning fog completely after 3 months taking Ultra-SP.
It's literally like my alarm clock goes off and I have the mood as if it's the afternoon and I just had half a red bull.
Zero lag and the clarity has made me feel so much more productive.
For this reason my mind was changed and I actually found an anti-aging supplement (although it does much more) that WORKS.
I'm just finishing month 3 this week though and will hopefully be back to make new articles about other awesome things I notice happening.
I defintely recommend experimenting with spermidine and seeing what it does for you. Comment below if you have your own experiences!
