Bright and early, my old friend, the beauty and wellness entrepreneur Liz Earle, <br>
<br>
is standing at my door clutching a Kilner jar with what looks like a small sponge floating in murky water.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>'I made kombucha for you,' she says with an enthusiasm I don't entirely share.</b><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
(The sponge, it turns out, is the Scoby, or <br>
<br>
'symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast', <br>
<br>
which is what's used to ferment sweetened tea to make kombucha.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I don't realise at the time, but this hideous thing takes weeks to <br>
<br>
develop and is in fact a very generous gift.)<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The truth is, I'd drink (almost) anything if it gave me Liz's zip.<br>
<br>
At 61, a mother of five and a new grandmother, she honestly looks <br>
<br>
20 years younger. Fans of her YouTube channel and her 170,<br>
<br>
000 Instagram followers will know how bright and smooth her skin is, but in person she is fizzing with energy, too.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Liz and I have been friends for 25 years - over which <br>
<br>
time she has somehow seemed to gain in vitality as I, nine years her junior, <br>
<br>
have... well, deflated.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Beauty and wellness entrepreneur Liz Earle, right, and Beatrice Aidin met back in the 1990s when they were both beauty journalists<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
So here's my plan. I am going to Live Like Liz for a full eight weeks, morning to night, <br>
<br>
to see just how much I, too, can turn back the clock.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I am going to eat, drink and exercise like Liz, 'ground myself' <br>
<br>
in a flower bed in my pyjamas like her, and even tape up my mouth à la Liz.<br>
<br>
From my gut to my hormones, my brain to the very cells of my skin, I will follow the 'bio-hacks' set out in her <br>
<br>
new book A Better Second Half: Dial Back Your Age To Live <br>
<br>
A Longer, Healthier, Happier Life, which swiftly became a bestseller <br>
<br>
on its release this year.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Liz says it can't fail, so long as I commit to it.</b><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<u>'Who's to say we can't or shouldn't change the way we age?' she asks.</u><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'I was stronger, fitter and more capable in my 50s than I was <br>
<br>
in my 40s, so why can't I be even more so in my 60s, 70s and beyond?'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Perhaps more significantly, after the 'car crash of emotional wreckage' caused by the breakdown of her second marriage, and <br>
<br>
the divorce she went through in 2020, she now says: 'I'm happier at 61 than I was at 40.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Career-wise, it shows. When we met back in the 1990s we were both beauty journalists.<br>
<br>
At launches for new products, I'd merrily down the <br>
<br>
free Krug while Liz sipped sparkling water.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'Ah Bea, you were the yin to my yang,' she says.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Now, her wellness empire has mushroomed... and I'm suffering major work anxiety, a not-unrelated financial crisis and severe sciatica.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Frankly, I look and feel knackered. My skin is dull and I have dark circles under my eyes.<br>
<br>
Physical pain interferes with my sleep, and I've been turning rather too readily to the sauvignon blanc to help me nod off.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Food is not a priority: I'm either not interested or <br>
<br>
craving sugar, which means I'm a good 10lb heavier than I should be.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
So, can living like my rather fabulous friend make me feel as <br>
<br>
young as she looks? More to the point - can I really <br>
<br>
stick to it, kombucha and all?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>'Come on Bea, get off your backside!' Liz demands...</b><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Liz (left) puts Beatrice through her paces in the gym.<br>
<br>
Beatrice needs extra help with exercise because of her sciatica<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<strong><u>Week one: I face up to my middle-age spread</u></strong><br>
<br>
Liz's top-line diet philosophy is high-protein, low carb, <br>
<br>
meaning she's a fan of lots of foods I love but didn't think I <br>
<br>
should eat: butter, unprocessed meat, avocados,<br>
<br>
good quality cheese, taramasalata and thick Greek yoghurt.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
High protein helps us 'shift to a leaner, more toned shape, and lose that middle-aged spread,' <br>
<br>
she says.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Timing matters. Liz eats two meals a day - brunch around 11am and dinner at 7pm.<br>
<br>
The order matters too: clear your plate of chicken before rice, because eating protein before carbs keeps blood sugar levels stable.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
In recent years she has increased her coffee intake (before 2pm) because studies <br>
<br>
show four to five cups is 'strongly associated with living longer' thanks to the bioactives in coffee <br>
<br>
beans such as chlorogenic acid.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
She eats wheatgerm, soya beans and nuts to up her intake <br>
<br>
of spermidine - a dietary molecule that interacts with our DNA and mimics <br>
<br>
an anti-ageing process called autophagy, which de-ages us at <br>
<br>
a cellular level.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Alcohol is basically a no-no. Liz has the 'occasional glass' of wine or tequila, but <br>
<br>
never more than two and never alone.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I chuck out the ready meals and plonk, roll up my sleeves and start cooking <br>
<br>
from scratch. I grill venison, roast a chicken and make <br>
<br>
soups with the leftovers.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Eating at specific times works for me - I'm never very hungry first thing <br>
<br>
- and enjoying the protein part of each meal first means I'm fuller and find it easy to cut back on my carb portions.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Gut health is a big focus, which means more fermented foods.<br>
<br>
Much to my surprise, I love the kombucha and soon start to brew my own using Liz's Scoby.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
But homemade kimchi - fermented veg - is a harder <br>
<br>
sell. When a lunch guest asks me why I'm forcing myself to eat <br>
<br>
something I dislike so much, I reply solemnly: 'Liz told me to.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Week two: I discover I can do only 3 press-ups</b><br>
<br>
I really need help with exercise because sciatica means my normal routine has gone to pot.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thankfully, Liz reckons just ten minutes a day of exercises such as squats, <br>
<br>
lunges and press-ups is more valuable in the long term <br>
<br>
than a high-intensity gym session once a week or a long park run.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
She introduces me to her personal trainer, Michael Garry, who delivers the (bombshell, <br>
<br>
but welcome) news that running any distance over 5k can 'start to <br>
<br>
have negative effects' on our immune system and bone strength.<br>
<br>
If you're a runner, make it harder by speeding <br>
<br>
up your time, not increasing your distance.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
At Michael's insistence, I consult a physio about <br>
<br>
my sciatica, and then he devises a daily regime for me.<br>
<br>
I try press-ups and make it to three. Mortifying.<br>
<br>
Perseverance is clearly key. As are weights, especially in your 50s.<br>
<br>
'The more muscle you have, the more your bones are <br>
<br>
protected from osteoporosis, especially during midlife,' says Michael.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
For cardio, says Beatrice, I keep swimming twice <br>
<br>
a week. But instead of plodding up and down the <br>
<br>
pool, I start to compete with myself, speeding up the laps<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
For my slack and flabby upper arms, he advises shoulder presses and <br>
<br>
hammer curls, with 3kg weights in both hands. I try tricep dips off <br>
<br>
a chair, and quickly find I can increase <br>
<br>
my reps - until by week four I'm doing two sets of 15.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I work out three times a week at home. At first the routine takes <br>
<br>
40 minutes but the more I do, the faster I do it, until the whole thing - stretching, press-ups, weights - takes <br>
<br>
just 20 minutes.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
For cardio, I keep swimming twice a week. But <br>
<br>
instead of plodding up and down the pool, I start to compete with myself, speeding up the <br>
<br>
laps.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Week three: I slow the hormonal roller coaster</b><br>
<br>
I'm menopausal and already on HRT, but I know I could improve how I feel, which is sluggish and foggy.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Liz introduces me to something called the 'estrobolome' - <br>
<br>
the specific collection of bacteria in the gut that influences how our body uses oestrogen. Put simply,<br>
<br>
some microbes improve the efficiency with which oestrogen reaches tissues around the body, meaning we use our <br>
<br>
dwindling supplies more effectively.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The best way to support your estrobolome is by eating fibre from veg,<br>
<br>
seeds and nuts, plus some of the low-sugar fruits such as apples, berries and plums.<br>
<br>
Back to the supermarket I go.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
To boost the happy hormone serotonin, my saintly mentor insists I finish my morning shower with a minimum 60-second <br>
<br>
blast of icy cold water, resulting - she claims - in a 'post-shock high' and 'genuine glow'.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Hmmm. I find it hard to relinquish the comfort of a hot <br>
<br>
shower and feel not happy but mutinous as I step out of the bathroom <br>
<br>
shivering.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<strong><u>Week four: I stand in the flower bed</u></strong><br>
<br>
Living Like Liz means getting outside first thing in the morning and standing barefoot on the <br>
<br>
grass. 'Grounding' apparently enables electrons from the surface of the Earth to transmit deep into the body, 'where they have an anti-inflammatory effect'.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Liz tells me she does this in the tranquil grounds of her glorious pile in the West <br>
<br>
Country. I do it in a flower bed in my shared patio, still in my pyjamas, and feel, well, very self-conscious.<br>
<br>
Later I graduate to the park, and - look away now <br>
<br>
- tread in dog mess, which does not improve my <br>
<br>
emotional wellbeing.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
She also encourages us to keep a Five Minute Gratitude Journal twice a day.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'Gratitude is... a superpower that improves longevity <br>
<br>
and supports the immune system,' she says.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I can't help but think my better-off mate has rather a lot more to smile about <br>
<br>
than me but, following instructions, I write down three things I am <br>
<br>
grateful for every morning, and every night a short list of 'good things' that <br>
<br>
happened that day, plus another (longer) list of 'things that are <br>
<br>
concerning me'.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
My scepticism around gratitude slowly lifts as I find it <br>
<br>
does make me realise what's important and what's <br>
<br>
not. It helps me see that things are a lot brighter than I thought.<br>
<br>
Packing in a rush for a weekend away, I can't find <br>
<br>
my journal and am surprised by how bereft I feel without it.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Week five: I start to sleep well</b><br>
<br>
I'm a night owl - I stay up too late watching TV and <br>
<br>
end up hitting my snooze button past 8.30am...<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
and occasionally edging towards 10am.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Liz reckons anyone can improve their sleep if they <br>
<br>
follow her routine, which means setting an evening alarm for 9pm - to remind yourself to start 'winding down for bed'.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Emails, social media and TV are switched off, replaced by a printed book or <br>
<br>
a podcast. She takes 120g of magnesium glycinate in a milky drink half an hour before bed <br>
<br>
(and stops eating two hours before).<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<i><u>Living Like Liz means getting outside first thing in the morning </u></i><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Liz wears a bamboo fibre nightie or pyjamas to keep warm because she sleeps with an open window, which she <br>
<br>
covers with blackout blinds and curtains, and sprinkles her pillow with a few drops of neat lavender essential oil.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I'm an e-book reader, so already failing at this routine.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Still, I leave my phone charging in the kitchen and buy a regular alarm clock.<br>
<br>
The lavender oil makes me sneeze, so I spray my pillows with C.<br>
<br>
Atherley Geranium Spray instead. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Oh, and I tape my lips up - Liz shows me how when she delivers the <br>
<br>
kombucha. Forcing yourself to breathe through your nose is said to promote more restful sleep.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
All of this is time-consuming and takes practise, but <br>
<br>
I find the ritual soothing. Five weeks in, I'm getting to sleep earlier than I have for years - at 10.30pm after 20 minutes drop-off time -and waking at 7.30am.<br>
<br>
How virtuous!<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<i><u>Week six: I crash off the wagon</u></i><br>
<br>
I'm doing my best, but then I go for lunch with a friend who <br>
<br>
chirpily suggests a glass of wine, which turns into a bottle.<br>
<br>
And then a second. Later, with a daytime hangover, I head to M&S and <br>
<br>
find reduced dauphinoise potatoes, which become dinner. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Liz has got me on a blood sugar tracker called Lingo (£289 <br>
<br>
for two months - you jab a biosensor the size and shape of a plastic bottle top into your upper arm, and then link <br>
<br>
it to an app on your phone), which shows a massive post-potato spike and then a huge slump, <br>
<br>
which makes me tired and irritable. Who knew that such deliciousness had <br>
<br>
such a high glycaemic load?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I call Liz to 'fess up. 'I have the odd day when I lie in, eat too much cake <br>
<br>
and drink too much tequila,' she says. 'But that's fine because you then know what to do <br>
<br>
to put it right. It's not about being perfect.' Phew!<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Week seven: I tackle my financial mess</b><br>
<br>
Re-reading my journal really helps here. By documenting what I was so worried about day by day,<br>
<br>
my perspective on it changes.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Here, in black and white, is a record of how I felt at the start of <br>
<br>
this project and how I've evolved.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I've come unstuck - in a good way. I'm not going to pretend it's been easy because <br>
<br>
change is uncomfortable, but I realise there's simply nothing to be gained from the worry spiral.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
If freelance life is tough, and my income erratic, I'm going to <br>
<br>
do something about it. Buoyed with the confidence that comes with <br>
<br>
action, I apply for part-time admin jobs. As personal trainer Michael observes <br>
<br>
as we work out on Zoom, I wouldn't have done this <br>
<br>
before. He's right. Finally I've started to take control.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><u>Week eight: And the winner is...</u></b><br>
<br>
So how have eight weeks of Living Like Liz changed me?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Physically, I'm in much better shape. I've lost 7 lb and taken an extraordinary <br>
<br>
5 in off my waist and 11 in off my body as a whole.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Those three pathetic press-ups have become a whopping 40 per workout,<br>
<br>
and the measly 3kg weights are now 6kg, meaning I have proper bicep definition. The <br>
<br>
sleeveless tops will be coming out again this party season.<br>

<u><strong>Our essential guide to beating back pain: What's <br>
<br>
causing your aches</strong></u><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
My skin is clearer, eyes brighter and face more defined because I've reduced the carb-inducing bloat.<br>
<br>
I'm sleeping better and feeling infinitely less anxious.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Most remarkably - and this is really life-changing - my sciatica is <br>
<br>
almost gone and I can come off strong painkillers. I know sciatica can disappear of its own accord, but the timing is surely no coincidence.<br>
<br>
All those exercises have strengthened the muscles around my spine <br>
<br>
and buttocks and I'm convinced it's done the trick.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I meet Liz for lunch, nervous about whether she'll see a <br>
<br>
difference. 'Oh wow,' she says, taking a good look at her pupil.<br>
<br>
'Those arms! You definitely look younger.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
We chat for a while and she adds: 'You also seem more content and <br>
<br>
optimistic. You have an inner glow and a halo of positivity.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Well, yes, she would say that, wouldn't she? (Probably.<br>
<br>
Though Liz is known for her candour, so it's not a given.) 'I wasn't sure you were going to <br>
<br>
prioritise yourself enough and commit,' she admits 'You weren't an easy nut <br>
<br>
to crack so I'm thrilled.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I'm delighted with my gold star. And I'm grateful to her, which is one of <br>
<br>
the key lessons I've learned. Gratitude makes everything feel better.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
That - along with the kombucha, ice-cold showers (which I have learned to love) and the <br>
<br>
odd tequila - are the habits I'll hold on to. But not (shudder!) the kimchi or flower beds.<br>
<br>
<br>
