I know people who spend $30,000 on stem cell therapy. 

Did you know your body can do this for free? I'm doing it right now!

You're looking at an ice bath photo.

But I'm not talking about cold exposure today.

I'm talking about something FAR more powerful for regeneration.

Something that costs $0.

Let me explain.

I know people that pay $30,000 for stem cell injections. 

It's even available in Europe.

But in 2014, Dr. Valter Longo at USC discovered something remarkable:

Your body already knows how to regenerate stem cells.

You just have to give it the right signal.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗹? 

Prolonged fasting.

Here's the science:

- When you fast for 3-5 days, your IGF-1 plummets. 
- This inhibits PKA, an enzyme that normally keeps stem cells dormant.
- With PKA suppressed, your stem cells wake up.
- They start regenerating.
- Old, damaged immune cells get cleared out.
- New ones take their place.

The data is compelling:
→ Stem cells increase approximately 6-fold 
→ Biological age reduced by 2.5 years (after 3 cycles) 
→ Immune system literally rebuilds itself

The magic happens AFTER the 72-hour mark. 

That's when your body completes the metabolic switch.

And when you start eating again? 

That's when stem cells EXPLODE with proliferation.

Fasting might be the most underrated regeneration tool you have.

And it's completely free.

I'm on day 3 right now and will be finished by Saturday :)

Do you want to try this instead of spending $30,000 on stem cell therapy?

I have created a 5-day fasting guide with special electrolytes, pre- and refeeding cycles, etc.

This is also the guide I use for my clients.

Write a comment and I'll send you the guide via DM.

You are tired. You know that you need to improve your sleep.

But most sleep advice is garbage. Here's what works.

The problem isn't that you don't value sleep.

It's that you haven't made it your identity.

Here's my mindset shift that changed everything:

I stopped being "someone who sleeps when possible."

I became a professional sleeper!

And my performance exploded.

The Protocol:

→ Schedule sleep like your most critical meeting
No "just this once." 
It's a sacred time.

→ Set TWO alarms (not for waking up)
9 PM: Wind-down begins 
10 PM: Lights out
That hour is non-negotiable transition time.

→ Replace scrolling with reading 30 minutes before bed. 
Your mind needs decompression, not dopamine hits.

→ Create a sleep sanctuary 
Blackout curtains Cool temp (65-68°F / 18-21 Celsius) 
Complete darkness 
White noise if needed

→ Cut caffeine at noon 
Not because you can't fall asleep. 
Because your DEEP sleep gets destroyed.

My results after 90 days:
- Sharper decision-making in high-pressure moments 
- Better emotional regulation with my team 
- Consistent energy from 6 AM to 6 PM 
- HRV improved by 23 points

Sleep isn't recovery.

It's your performance and longevity enhancer.

The best CEOs and executives I know treat it that way.

What's stopping you from becoming a professional sleeper?

Hey friends 👋 I spent the past few weeks soaking up some sun.

Back in Berlin (winter) and also on LinkedIn now 😊

I'm Niko. I write, build, and think about longevity.

I focus on what moves the industry forward: prevention that works, diagnostics that matter, and systems that connect behavior, biology, and tech. I track the signals — funding, science, startups, policies — and cut through the noise so others don’t have to.

My background blends data, strategy, and health. I’m not a doctor, and I’m not pretending to be. But I work with people across science, medicine, and tech to translate what’s emerging into what’s actionable.

The goal? To help longevity evolve from hype to infrastructure — and make it usable for more people, not just the elite few.

Forward Health raised $660 million. Shut down overnight.
Olive AI raised $850 million. Sold for parts.
Babylon Health hit $4 billion valuation. Collapsed.

I keep watching healthcare start-ups burn through billions making the exact same mistakes.

1. They build tech before understanding clinical workflows.

Beautiful software that ignores fragmented EHRs, billing pathways, liability concerns, physician time pressure. 

If your product adds friction to a 12-hour clinical day, doctors stop using it. Period.

I've seen founders demo "revolutionary" platforms to physicians who just nod politely. Then never log in again. Because that elegant dashboard doesn't replace any existing task cleanly. It adds one more system to check.

2. They underestimate reimbursement complexity.

US healthcare runs on CPT codes, prior authorizations, and payer negotiations. Your brilliant AI means nothing if it doesn't fit into a reimbursable structure.

Companies burn hundreds of millions assuming Medicare will eventually pay. They rarely do without years of evidence and economic modeling that most startups can't survive long enough to generate.

3. They chase scale before validation.

Aggressive expansion with unproven unit economics turns small inefficiencies into fatal hemorrhages. Opening 50 clinics before you've made one ptofitable? Often not a good idea.

In regulated sectors with complex patient pathways, premature scaling compounds every operational flaw exponentially.

4. They make promises biology can't support.

Marketing outcomes that aren't grounded in physiology or real-world evidence destroys trust instantly. When claims don't match patient results, regulators knock on the door. Investors vanish. Even if parts of the tech work, confidence evaporates.

5. They treat healthcare like consumer SaaS.

Low-friction onboarding doesn't translate to medicine. Patients need handholding. Clinicians require extensive training. Outcomes take months or years to manifest. Churn stays high.

Subscription mechanics behave nothing like software when you're dealing with chronic care. It's professional services with massive operational overhead, not scalable SaaS.

6. Healthcare is complicated. Really complicated.

The companies that survive understand this from day one. They embed in clinical settings. They obsess over workflow integration. They build for the reimbursement system that exists, not the one they wish existed.

Most importantly: They respect the complexity instead of trying to disrupt it away.

What other patterns do you see in healthcare tech failures?

♻️ Repost if you think founders need to understand healthcare before trying to fix it.
