Al DaCosta
Thank You for your visit. At Vitality Clan, I offer valuable content writing services paired with a unique selection of health products and books. Our goal is to inspire and empower through creativity and innovation for a better healthier lifestyle.
Hello there! I’m Al DaCosta, a proud British citizen of Portuguese descent, now embracing life to the fullest in the US. Writing has always been a passion of mine, and after a dynamic career building and managing successful businesses worldwide, I’ve decided it’s time to put pen to paper and share the wealth of knowledge, experiences, and insights I’ve gathered over the years.
A Passion for Health, Longevity, and Vitality
Now in my late 70s, I feel more energized and vibrant than ever! While many at my age may feel they’re slowing down, I see it as an exciting new chapter filled with possibilities. I continue to take on projects that challenge both mind and body—things that even younger folks often hesitate to do.
My outlook on health and longevity has been deeply influenced by the loss of dear friends who left too soon due to illness. Witnessing so many peers struggle with health issues reinforced my belief that the choices we make—especially regarding nutrition and lifestyle—can shape the quality of our lives. From an early age, I embraced the idea that food is medicine. While it may not offer instant cures, it lays the foundation for a lifetime of well-being. This belief fuels my writing, as I strive to inspire others to make informed choices that promote longevity, strength, and vitality.
Staying Active and Defying Limits
Even in retirement, I remain deeply involved in consulting, particularly in construction. Whether it’s drawing up blueprints, designing disaster-resistant homes, or guiding homeowners through challenges, I approach every task with the same energy and enthusiasm I’ve always had. I still climb ladders, balance on planks high above the ground, and tackle physically demanding projects with confidence—proof that age is just a number when you prioritize health and movement.
A Lifelong Learner Aspiring Fiction and Non-Fiction Author
I am passionate about writing in the areas of health and fitness, longevity, business, economy, spirituality, and personal growth. My extensive travels and diverse professional background—from hotel management and entertainment to innovative construction—give me a unique lens through which I explore these topics. I also love to let my imagination run wild creating exiting and engaging stories. Recently, I even designed and patented a mold-free dome-building system, further demonstrating my belief that innovation and learning never stop, no matter one’s age.
Join Me on This Journey
I created this VITALITY CLAN website to connect with readers and others like me who are committed to living longer, healthier, and more fulfilling lives. I’m passionate about researching the latest on aging well, exploring holistic health solutions, and sharing practical lifestyle tips; my goal is to empower others to take control of their well-being.
The purpose of this website is to foster a healthy and informative community with individuals who embrace the positive aspects of life. If YOU enjoy writing and want to share a blog or a life experience that could help or empower others, email it to me. To al@vitalityclan.com, I would be more than happy to post it on the site.
Throughout my life, I’ve found that embracing hobbies enriches the mind and reduces stress. When I’m not writing, you can often find me hiking, painting, reading, or sailing whenever the opportunity arises. Nature continues to be a source of inspiration and renewal for me.
I’m excited to connect with this vibrant community, share ideas, and keep learning from others along the way!
COOKBOOK will be Launched Soon My next book will be a Cookbook, showing lots of recipes that can be done with a few healthy ingredients prepared in a very short time. Watch this space!
