Tue, 26 Mar 2024 - 1h 12min - 1451 - A Blueprint to Overhaul the American Food & Pharma Systems – Calley Means : 1146
Today, Calley Means joins the show to march onward on his war path to changing the incentives of modern health. He’s a champion of food and lifestyle practices as medicine—and, in May of this year, he’s putting out a new book on the subject which we outline today, called Good Energy. His sister, Dr. Casey Means, is the co-author of Good Energy. You know her from a past appearance on this show and as the founder of Levels so this mission really is a family affair in the best way possible. Going from a food lobbyist to the other side of the fence, Calley is a deeply serious and dedicated champion for the people. But he brings much more to the table today than a polished delivery and a new book; he is also the co-founder of True Medicine, which works to connect tax-advantaged spending to healthy food and exercise. It’s helped hundreds of thousands of people access affordable care by leveraging the convoluted systems currently in place to block them from doing so—no easy task. In this conversation, Calley lays the foundation for our food culture as it stands today—bleak, corrupt, poisoned, sick, and getting sicker. We deconstruct the layers of federal agencies and historical precedent that have brought us to this point, and we’re direct in our suggestions (demands) on how to fix it. And all the facts are laid bare. Dots are connected in broad daylight, on network television, and within the algorithms that power our social feeds. Our kids are at stake, and the only option is to take affirmative action on what we know is right.

How can we make our furry best friends live longer, healthier lives? A true pioneer in this field, Dr. Matt Kaeberlein, is here to unpack this important subject while highlighting the crossover between human and canine longevity. You read that right; this episode isn't just for dog lovers—it's a deep dive into longevity for humans, too. Dr. Matt Kaeberlein, who's the CEO of Optispan and a key figure in the Dog Aging Project, brings a wealth of knowledge from his distinguished career in aging and healthspan research. He's an Affiliate Professor at the University of Washington and a notable figure in gerontology, recognized by organizations like the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Gerontological Society of America. Matt's work is groundbreaking, demonstrated in over 250 scientific papers on aging, numerous prestigious awards, and he's even a Fellow of several aging associations. He's on a mission to unlock the secrets of aging, not just in humans, but in our four-legged companions as well. We explore the accuracy of measuring age with telomeres versus epigenetics and get into the nitty-gritty of diet's impact on longevity for both dogs and humans, reminding us it's not just about living longer, but living well. Matt explains the impressive trial results on rapamycin for reducing age-related inflammation, a breakthrough that's not just exciting for us but also for our pets. Finally, we touch on how AI is revolutionizing our approach to understanding and extending our healthspan. For those who want to get more involved, check out dogagingproject.org.

Today’s guest is none other than Shawn Stevenson. If you’re not already familiar with Shawn’s work, he’s the author of the USA Today National bestseller Eat Smarter, the international bestselling book Sleep Smarter, and the creator of the widely popular health podcast, The Model Health Show. Shawn is one of those guys who embodies peace and calm, after an impressively transformative journey stemming from a background of health challenges at least as severe as mine. After recovering, he became a researcher and nutritionist experienced in biology and nutritional science. We dive into a crucial element of biohacking I am always keen to highlight—friendship, or in this case, community. Based on research from Shawn’s latest book, Eat Smarter Family Cookbook, we talk about his current mission on the path to wellness: creating a culture of wellness around the dinner table, how communal meals impact our health and longevity, and filling the void of connection we all so desperately need these days. Shawn shares insights from his own family’s dinner table, his tips for implementing family meals into your weekly routine, and the encouraging science and data behind how it supports physical and spiritual nourishment, nervous system regulation, stress management, and more. If you like this episode, I encourage you to go pick out a good cut of meat and cook food for someone you care about—or simply do anything that's an act of service that nourishes another human being. Here’s to cultivating strong relationships, imbuing our food with love, and honoring the act of nourishing ourselves and our families.

Welcome to a special Upgrade Spotlight Edition, where I introduce you to someone who's genuinely changing the game. Our carefully selected guest today is a renowned pharmacist, an author, and a pioneer in biohacking for skin longevity: Dr. Nayan Patel. Dr. Patel is a trailblazer in the world of antioxidants, specifically glutathione. If you've been following biohacking or are a regular listener, you know that glutathione is a key antioxidant with vital functions, including skin health. Dr. Patel's expertise in absorbable glutathione and anti-aging sciences is unparalleled. Dr. Patel holds a unique patent for transdermal glutathione delivery, a groundbreaking method of introducing this crucial antioxidant directly through your skin with his company Auro Wellness. His book, The Glutathione Revolution, dives deep into this topic. In this episode, we delve into why glutathione is essential for skin longevity. Dr. Patel shares insights on his innovative formula and technology for absorption at Auro Wellness, which has shown promising results in reducing fine lines, cellulite, and even promoting hair growth. As someone who champions scientifically-backed products and real results, I'm excited to discuss how Dr. Patel's work is a true game changer. I know the power of glutathione. I've been using it for nearly two decades, especially during my battle with toxic mold exposure.

In today’s wide-ranging talk, we discuss the future of optimizing our brains with AI—delving into all things biohacking and longevity while exploring complicated questions like… Can you die of loneliness? And… Are your critics making you old? Plus, we talk testosterone—an often triggering topic, but an essential conversation.

Tue, 11 Jul 2023 - 42min - 1372 - Happiness Starts with Your Brain Type! – Dr. Daniel Amen : 1067
IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™... “Americans are the unhappiest they have been since the Great Depression,” says Dr. Daniel Amen. But he’s determined to change that. He’s a physician and double board-certified psychiatrist who looks at happiness as a brain function. After studying more than 200,000 brain scans of people from 155 countries, Dr. Daniel Amen discovered five primary brain types and seven neuroscience secrets that influence happiness. “I wanted to spend my time and energy and research on happiness because, ultimately... happiness is a moral obligation because of how you impact other people,” Dr. Amen says. “The big central point [is] the brain is the organ of happiness, and if your brain is not healthy, you are not likely to be happy.” What makes you happy? The answer lies in knowing your specific brain type and how it’s being influenced by seven specific chemicals. Happiness originates in distinct brain regions: pleasure in the orbitofrontal cortex; motivation and habit formation in the basal ganglia; and mood and cognitive flexibility in the brain stem. You may be one or a combination of these five primary brain types: (take this brain assessment to find out yours) Balanced: you have a very healthy brain Spontaneous: you have low dopamine Persistent: you’re often worried, rigid, and inflexible Sensitive: you need other people and isolation is hard Cautious: your GABA levels are low Learn more about brain types and what actually boosts your happiness according to neuroscience in Dr. Amen’s book, "You, Happier: The 7 Neuroscience Secrets of Feeling Good Based on Your Brain Type.” “Happiness comes from moving your life forward toward your life goals with meaning and purpose, based on your values, despite whatever obstacles are in your way,” Dr. Amen says. “A happy life doesn’t focus on the past with regret or look to the future with fear.” See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
