Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) has among its many actions, the ability to stabilize lymphatic vessels by protecting and enhancing the endothelial cells (the ones on the lining) of the lymph system. Another supplement that seems to help with protecting the various parts of the lymph system is Japanese knotweed (Polygonum cuspidatum), a rich source of resveratrol. Additionally, both pleurisy root (Asclepias tuberosa) and inmortal (Asclepias asperula) can help stimulate lymph drainage from the lungs. All these can be found on Amazon or in health food stores. [2021] - Gerald Lemole

Part of conscientiousness is having good impulse control, being able to delay the lure of immediately rewarding (and often dangerous) things like overspending money, driving too fast, excess eating, or alcohol use. Having high levels of impulsivity is associated with shorter telomeres as well. Those with high self-discipline live 34% longer than their less conscientious counterparts. [2017] - Elizabeth Blackburn

What prediabetes, metabolic syndrome, and PCOS have in common is insulin resistance, which even without it having progressed to diabetes is a hazard to your cardiovascular system, and potentially to other organs. Having metabolic syndrome alone without prediabetes raises your risk of diabetes five-fold. Having both prediabetes and metabolic syndrome raises your risk of diabetes even further. Recent scientific evidence has also begun to tie insulin resistance to increased risk of a number of cancers including cancer of the colon, liver, pancreas, and breast. [2013] - Hillary Wright
