Good Sunday and Eid Mubarak amigos,

This one insight could change your life.

Most high performers have no idea their liver’s on fire.

Not from alcohol.

From ambition.

The 2PM crash?

The stubborn belly fat?

The brain fog?

All signs your liver is overloaded.

This week, we break down how elite longevity thinkers are reversing fatty liver, cutting dementia risk, and extending lifespan.

With daily habits that take less than 30 minutes.

P.S. If you know someone who values sharper thinking, smarter health, and a competitive edge, share this email now.

The most underrated longevity organ

Your liver processes 500+ essential functions.

And most people never think about it — until it’s too late.

NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) now affects 1 in 3 adults — and yes, even lean ones.

The main drivers?

• Insulin resistance

• Processed foods

• Chronic stress

• Night eating

💡 New Study

Combining a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet with 16:8 intermittent fasting significantly reduced liver fat, inflammation (CRP), and insulin resistance in NAFLD patients.

Why it works:

• Fasting improves mitochondrial cleanup (autophagy)

• Vegetarian diet reduces saturated fat and improves gut microbiota

• Time restriction realigns your circadian metabolism

What to do:

✔️ Eat between 10am–6pm
✔️ Prioritize: eggs, legumes, leafy greens, nuts, Greek yogurt
✔️ Eliminate refined carbs after 6pm

Even 12 weeks can radically shift your liver’s biomarkers.

🌍 wellnessindubai.com

Your daily-updated guide to Dubai’s best wellness events, longevity breakthroughs, and health rituals that actually move the needle.

Over the past year, I kept running into the same problem:

Wellness info was scattered.

Events were hard to find.

And most advice?

Fluffy, unscientific, or influencer nonsense.

Worse, I kept missing game-changing (and often free) events simply because there was no reliable hub.

So I built one.

Curated. Credible. Zero fluff.

Built for high-performing, health-conscious professionals.

Finally—everything that matters, in one place.

Want to delay dementia by 5 years?

No pill. No headset. No nootropic.

Just this:

Stay socially connected.

A 7-year study published in Alzheimer's & Dementia found that socially active older adults delayed dementia onset by 5 years — and had a 38% lower risk of developing it altogether.

This is wild.

Conversation, community, and shared laughs literally rewire your brain.

Why it works:

• Neurogenesis through cognitive stimulation

• Cortisol reduction via oxytocin release

• HPA axis regulation (stress → memory center protection)

Lean Implementation:

✔️ Schedule 1 social “walk & talk” per week
✔️ Join a mastermind, group workout, or hobby club
✔️ Block one day/month for an unstructured friend catch-up

The sleep stat that predicts how long you’ll live

Sleep quality matters.

But sleep regularity may matter more.

A new study in Sleep found that people with consistent sleep-wake cycles lived 39% longer than those with irregular rhythms — even if total hours slept were the same.

In short:

Wake up at the same time.
Sleep at the same time.
Every day.

Why it works:

• Anchors your circadian rhythm

• Balances hormones like melatonin & cortisol

• Enhances deep + REM sleep recovery

Upgrade your sleep schedule in 3 steps:

✔️ Set a hard stop for work at 8pm
✔️ No screens after 9:30pm
✔️ Wake at the same time — even weekends (±30min max)

Closing thought

If your brain, liver, and sleep aren’t aligned, you’re burning the candle at both ends — metabolically.

The good news?

• Your liver can heal.

• Your brain can rewire.

• And your longevity can be extended — starting with 3 simple shifts this week.

Hasta el next Sunday amigos!
