Florida functional medicine physician Mitch Ghen said he builds his own daily longevity routine around coffee, 100% cacao and raw, unfiltered honey.
Three to four cups of coffee a day is his suggested “sweet spot,” citing studies he said link coffee to longevity as well as cardiovascular, immune and alertness benefits.
One teaspoon to one tablespoon of cacao added to morning coffee can raise antioxidant and polyphenol intake, while about 1 tablespoon of honey daily may support the gut microbiome without an excessive sugar spike.
Ghen said the foods are only part of healthy aging, urging sustainable eating habits modeled on the Mediterranean diet and arguing that quality of life should come before simply extending lifespan.
