Longevity for UK readers — a wake time you can keep, NHS screening in context, no miracle supplements.

Healthspan, not hype

The UK desk writes longevity as healthspan: years you can walk, sleep, and think. Supplements marketed as “NAD miracles” stay in the maybe pile until your clinician says otherwise. Sleep timing and a weekly walk remain first.

NHS screening invitations exist for a reason. They are not a ViaLongeVita product. If a letter arrives, read it; if you are unsure, ask the GP or the number on the letter.

  • Protect a dark, cooler bedroom; park the phone.
  • Walk most days — the cheapest UK longevity habit.
  • 999 for stroke/heart-attack signs; 111 when you need urgent advice and it is not an emergency.
