Your body has a built-in cellular cleanup system that determines whether any of those inputs actually work, and right now it's almost certainly switched off. In this video, I break down what that system is, how chronic stress and all-day eating suppress it without you ever feeling it, and the specific compounds that flip the longevity switch back on through independent biological pathways that nothing else touches.
