01 Tell us about your skincare journey.
“My skincare was something I never really paid any attention to until OneSkin. My skin was just there... It did its job, I never paid any attention to it and I didn’t try to nurture it. Now I use OneSkin twice a day - every morning and every evening."
02 What benefits have you seen from OneSkin?
"OneSkin got rid of the age marks that I had on my face, the wrinkles are much reduced, the skin is more supple, soft, and velvety and it looks younger. A picture is worth a thousand words: if I show my before and after photographs to almost anyone they start ordering OneSkin because it’s such a dramatic improvement."
03What got you interested in using OneSkin?
“I read the book ‘Ending Aging’, by Aubrey de Grey, in which he breaks down the problem of aging into about half a dozen categories. One of the categories is called ‘getting rid of unwanted stuff that’s in our body’, and senescent cells are part of that burden... What OneSkin is doing is attacking senescent cells which are in the skin, which accumulate over time."
04Is there anything you would say to your younger self? Any tips? Or habits you wish you’d picked up sooner?
"I would start using OS-01 at the age of 30. We know that by the time people get to be 30 or 40 years old, the senescent cell burden is starting to appear so that’s the time to hit it, and then it’s not going to be a problem. That could make a huge difference to people’s lives."
05Tell us about some habits that have positively contributed to your longevity journey
“We are very much what we eat... No fish, no meat, no dairy, no added oils. When I started that diet, I was 68 years old, now I’m 21. That’s the difference that it made in my life...It’s a bit of a change from what we do in North America or in the developed world, but it will keep you young, it will do a lot to preserve your organs, of course, the biggest organ is the skin... it really helps the skin. Then the other thing is that you need to keep your calories down. Calorie restriction is really well proven to increase longevity.
"I am part of a select group of people who are very concerned about longevity. We are all biohackers. A biohacker is somebody who will take the latest science and apply it to themselves. It's a matter of taking control over your own destiny."
06What else would you like to say to our community?
"What people do need to know is that they can control their destiny, but they have to work at it."
"I set up this website, viva sparkle, where me and my wife record our knowledge and experiences. Gradually I am passing information onto other people, because I think like most people, I like to help others if I can. And the biggest help that I can be to anyone is my example."
