I’ve been there, living with chronic inflammation that drained my energy, clouded my mind and left me feeling much older than my age. That persistent inflammation that steals your vitality, what biohackers call “inflammaging” isn’t just some vague health buzzword. It’s the fatigue, joint pain, skin flare-ups, brain fog and accelerated aging that so many of us have been told to accept as “normal.” But I discovered that it doesn’t have to be that way.

After years of struggling with unexplained symptoms, everything changed when I finally uncovered the root cause of my inflammation. Since then, I’ve dedicated myself to mastering the science and art of healing at the cellular level. Now, at the “Olistico Life Protocol: Biohack Your Biology & Reverse Your Age Retreat”, I share these powerful tools and protocols with others who want to reclaim their health and vitality.

If you’re ready to start living an anti-inflammatory life, here are my top 12 go-to tips that you can begin using today:

Eat an Organic Diet and Upgrade Your Fats

Inflammation often starts with what we put on our plates. Herbicides and pesticides like glyphosate are major offenders, wreaking havoc on your gut and immune system. Choosing organic produce, grass-fed meats and wild-caught fish isn’t just a luxury, it’s essential. When it comes to fats, ditch the seed oils and processed vegetable oils loaded with inflammatory omega-6s. Instead, cook with organic cold-pressed avocado oil, extra-virgin olive oil, ghee or coconut oil to nourish your cells and calm inflammation.

Know Your Triggers

Everyone’s body reacts differently. Common inflammatory triggers include gluten, dairy, alcohol and processed sugars, but your personal culprits might surprise you. Take time to observe how your body responds and consider an elimination diet or food sensitivity testing to pinpoint what’s really causing your flare-ups.

Prioritize Protein

Clean, high-quality protein is your body’s building block for muscle, hormones, and cellular repair. Aim for a minimum of 80 to 120 grams a day to support strength and longevity. For women especially, maintaining muscle mass is a powerful anti-aging strategy.

Hydrate Wisely

Filtered water is a must, but adding 1 gram of mineral-rich salt like Baja Gold can elevate your hydration game. This helps flush toxins and unlocks your cells’ ability to absorb water deeply.

Move Every Day and Lift Weights 2–3 Times a Week

Movement is medicine. Gentle daily activity keeps inflammation down and targeted weight training builds muscle without over-exertion. Just 20 minutes of strength work a few times a week can make a huge difference in how your body ages.

Supplement with Intention

Certain nutrients are inflammation fighters. Vitamin C, vitamin D3/K2, glutathione and magnesium (glycinate or threonate) are foundational. Adding curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, or resveratrol can further calm inflammation and support joint health.

Support Your Gut

Your gut microbiome is your body’s inflammation thermostat. Feed it well with probiotic-rich foods like sauerkraut (in brine, not vinegar) and fiber sources like psyllium husk. A healthy gut means a balanced immune system.

Reduce Toxic Load

Everyday products can be major sources of inflammation. Swap out chemical-laden skincare, haircare, and household cleaners for clean, non-toxic alternatives. These simple swaps protect your hormones and reduce hidden inflammatory triggers. Make sure you have a high quality air filter especially where you sleep to combat VOC’s in the air.

Manage Stress

Stress is a major driver of inflammation. Practices like meditation, breathwork or simply spending time in nature reset your nervous system and help your body heal. Even a few minutes a day can shift your inflammatory balance.

Prioritize Sleep

Sleep is your body’s nightly repair shop. Deep, restorative rest is non-negotiable for reducing inflammation and supporting longevity. Create a calming bedtime routine, limit blue light exposure and keep your bedroom cool and dark.

Try Intermittent Fasting

Intermittent fasting isn’t just a trend—it’s a powerful biohack to reduce inflammation and activate cellular repair. Even a 12 hour fast overnight can lower inflammatory markers and support gut health.

Sweat It Out with Sauna Sessions

Sweating through regular sauna use is a powerful way to lower inflammation and flush toxins from your body. Heat exposure activates your detox pathways, improves circulation and stimulates the release of inflammatory waste products. Whether it’s infrared or traditional sauna, this simple biohack supports cellular repair and boosts longevity.

I’m living proof that reducing inflammation changes everything, from your energy and mood to your skin and longevity. At the retreat, we’ll dive deep into each of these strategies so you can personalize them for your unique biology and create a clear picture to help you feel better, age slower and live more vibrantly.
