❝A year from now, you may wish you had started today❞

In today’s email we cover the toxic chemicals that aren’t in vape devices until you use them, the minerals that neutralize viruses while being harmless to humans, and skincare’s cult classics that have stood the test of time (and why).

Would you like for your next blood test results to come back showing such good health that it looks like you cheated and wrote the correct answers yourself?
If so, today’s sponsor Berkeley Life can help with that! The thing most people don’t know is that when it comes to our blood, a lot depends on Nitric Oxide (NO) levels, which decline with age, but that can be fixed, if you’re attentive to it. How?
Rather than guessing, you can test it yourself with a simple, at-home saliva-based test, and then decide whether supplementation is right for you at this age.
If you’re serious about aging healthily, a head-in-the-sand approach won’t work, so why not give your total-body health the support it deserves?

What do you know about Nitric Oxide (NO)? 10almonds readers are generally quite well-informed, but a lot of people don’t know that NO levels begin to decline by age 30, and by 40, they’ve dropped nearly 50%.

Which is a big (and oft-ignored) problem, because fatigue, brain fog, and general sluggishness are often seen as a natural part of aging, but low NO may be the underlying cause.

You may be wondering: how much heavy lifting is “may be” doing here?

And the answer is: none

Of course, there are many things that can cause fatigue, hence the “may”.

But there’s no need for guessing here, because…

Unlike most supplements where you just guess at a deficiency and hope to top it up, Berkeley Life not only provides a clinically proven way to boost Nitric Oxide, trusted by thousands of healthcare practitioners, but also, the means to test your own levels. Instead of testing just once, you’ll periodically use a 15–second saliva test strip (you can get them with the supplement) to test your NO levels yourself, quickly and easily, at home.

You can additionally expect to see improvements to:

^{PS: your regular 10almonds writer here; I just want to mention that when I was looking at their store last week while preparing for today’s sponsor slot, it was sold out at that time, so I know it’s cliché to say “act now while stocks last”, but in seriousness, do, because it’ll probably sell out quickly again! All this to say, I recommend getting yours now, not later!}
