Daily 5 by Dr Amy Killen
1. Get outside
There’s nothing like getting outside in nature to improve mental, emotional and physical health. Hiking or walking outside in the mountains is my meditation and never fails to lift my spirits on a down day.
2. Boost nitric oxide
Nitric oxide goes down with age and is extremely important for skin and sexual health so I make it a point to try to boost mine everyday with things like exercise, red light therapy (or sunshine!), pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy and fruits and vegetables high in healthy nitrates.
3. Frequent Sauna
I’ve become a serious infrared sauna fan in the last few months and I try to fit in a session at least four days a week after my strength-training. Saunas are great for cardiovascular health, as well as skin health, and I absolutely love how I feel after a serious 45-min sweat-a-thon.
4. Connection Time
Part of my interest in sex (and sexual health) is that it promotes real human connection, which is becoming more and more rare these days. So, I think an active sex life is important, but I’m also all about connecting in other ways with friends and family. As my kids get older I’m finding it even more necessary to create time in my schedule to be present with them.
5. Sleep 7-8 hours
My life (literally!) changed eight years ago when I left the ER and learned to sleep. Now, I make sleep a priority above almost everything else. I love magnesium before bed as well as a sleep mask and a cool, dark room. Hmmm… it’s making me want to go to bed right now!
These are a few of my daily health hacks. For more “hot tips” (and some pretty absurd reels!) follow me on instagram @dr.amybkillen. I’m also coming out with a quest for Mindvalley.com soon called “The Science of Great Sex” so keep an eye out for that. Finally, I’m very excited to be a founder of Reputable (Reputable.health), a Web3-based platform that aggregates real world evidence on health and wellness innovations, turning N of 1 experiments into actionable data to support us as we seek to move from sick to healthy and from healthy to enhanced.

The Importance of Metabolic Fitness: an 8-Step Daily Routine to Become More Metabolically Fit
What does it mean to be so metabolically healthy that you can tolerate carbs or fat? What would it take for all this static about low carb versus low fat diets to go away? Are you tired of feeling like you have to hack your biology into the body you think you need to have?
Norwich Meadows Farm
After working in the dairy division at Cornell Cooperative Extension for six years, Zaid Kurdieh and his wife Haifa decided to open their own certified organic farm in 1998. Starting with just a half acre behind their house, their vision of supporting the community has become a reality and now they farm over 200 acres. Norwich Meadows Farm produces food that is free of harsh chemicals and is grown using natural fertilizers. Realizing the health of the earth’s resources is paramount in the production of food, they have made a promise to always strive to preserve their agricultural land, and to use it in a manner that is economically, ecologically, and ethically sound.
