Who is Julie Gibson Clark?
Julie Gibson Clark, a former structural engineer turned recruiter, spent over a year holding the 2nd ranked spot on the Rejuvenation Olympics leaderboard (prior to the rule change). Based in Phoenix, Arizona, this single mother competes on a budget of under $150 per month.
Despite her modest budget, Julie's biohacking routine is refreshingly simple: a focus on mindset, regular exercise, sauna sessions, a vegetable-rich diet, and a selection of affordable supplements.
Her recent DNA methylation test revealed a remarkable aging pace of just 65 days for every 100 days, highlighting that significant longevity benefits are achievable without substantial expense.
Julie’s results demonstrate that effective biohacking for longevity can be accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial status.
Julie looks forward to learning and sharing more with you about best practices to stay healthy and vibrant for Life.
