Episode #285: Danielle Hamilton: Boosting Longevity through Blood Sugar Control and Circadian Wellness19 Nov 202401:22:13

Ever wondered why despite exercising and eating healthy you still struggle with health issues and energy levels?

 

In this episode of the Longevity podcast, I am joined by Nutritional Therapy Parctitioner Danielle Hamilton to explore the intricate relationship between blood sugar, metabolic health, and longevity.

 

We dive into the misconceptions surrounding blood sugar, the importance of not spiking it, and how insulin and other hormones like leptin and cortisol play a crucial role. Discover why managing your blood sugar is fundamental to longevity and how lifestyle adjustments, including diet and light exposure, can make a significant impact. Join us for an eye-opening conversation that might just change how you view your health.

 

Danielle Hamilton, host of the Light Up Your Metabolism podcast, is a certified Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (FNTP) with expertise in metabolic health and blood sugar management. Despite adhering to a paleo diet, Danielle faced persistent health challenges until she unraveled the connection between PCOS and insulin resistance.

Danielle turned to holistic health approaches and now shares her journey and knowledge through her podcast, helping listeners understand the crucial role of blood sugar stability, nutrient timing, and circadian rhythms in achieving lasting wellness

Episode #283: Dane Johnson: Inflammatory Bowel Disease Recovery, Mindset Shifts + The Daily Blueprint Method12 Nov 202401:28:38

Is it possible to change inflammatory bowel disease from your enemy to your teacher? 

 

In this episode of the Longevity podcast, I am joined by Dane Johnson the founder of CrohnsColitisLifestyle to discuss how he went from hospitalization with severe Crohn's disease at age 27 - experiencing 25 bloody bowel movements daily and dropping to 122 pounds - to making a profound mindset shift. Instead of viewing his inflammatory bowel disease as a curse, he chose to see it as a catalyst for transformation.

We discuss the root causes of IBD, the importance of a customized approach, and how to shift from fear-based to desire-driven choices. We also dive into breaking emotional connections to unhealthy foods, The Daily Blueprint method and much more.

Dane Johnson is the founder of CrohnsColitisLifestyle inspired by his life-threatening battle with Crohn's/Colitis, which he reversed using natural practice. As a Board Certified Nutritionist and one of the most successful Crohn's/Colitis coaches in the world, he has helped thousands around the world find their unique answer to IBD while building a community of supporters, doctors and healers!

Episode #281: Martha Carlin: Gut Microbiome Solutions for Parkinson's + The LPS-Chronic Disease Connection05 Nov 202401:13:48

Could the root cause of Parkinson's disease be hiding in your gut?

 

In this Longevity Podcast episode, I am joined by Martha Carlin, founder of The BioCollective and BiotiQuest, to explore the role of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) – cellular debris from harmful bacteria – in Parkinson's disease and other chronic conditions. 

 

We dive into the importance of the microbiome in overall health, the connection between constipation and Parkinson's, and the potential impact of probiotics in mitigating LPS-related issues. We also explore the benefits of cold showers, cold plunges, and cryotherapy in signaling microbes and the potential of AI in accelerating learning and understanding the complexities of the microbiome. 

 

Martha Carlin, a former business turnaround expert turned citizen scientist, has emerged as a pioneering force in microbiome research and Parkinson's disease studies since her husband's diagnosis in 2002. After teaching herself chemistry, physics, biochemistry, and microbiology, she founded The BioCollective in 2015, creating one of the world's first fecal banks to accelerate microbiome research, and later developed BiotiQuest, a line of innovative probiotics. Her groundbreaking work has led to collaborations across multiple scientific disciplines and speaking engagements at prestigious venues, including The White House 2016 Microbiome Initiative.

Episode #279: Dr. Anurag Singh: Urolithin A, the Aging Immune System, Biological Age Reversal and more…25 Oct 202401:03:54

Are you protecting your immune system as you age?

 

In this Longevity podcast episode, I am joined by Dr. Anurag Singh to discuss recent research that suggests Urolithin A, a compound derived from pomegranates and other foods, may help rejuvenate the aging immune system. 

 

We dive into how supplementing with Urolithin A for just 4 weeks led to significant improvements in immune cell function and a reduction in biological age by an average of 2 years in middle-aged adults. We also discuss insights on dosing, combining Urolithin A with other longevity strategies, and ongoing clinical trials that may reveal even more benefits.

 

Dr. Anurag Singh is the Chief Medical Officer of Timeline Nutrition, a biotech company focused on discovering and developing next generation natural compounds that target improvement in mitochondrial health.

Episode #278: Mark Young: A Biohacker's Approach to Heart Health, Blood Pressure Management and Isometric Exercise22 Oct 202401:31:41

Is there an easy way to lower your blood pressure without medication? In this Longevity episode, I talk with Mark Young, CEO of Zona Health, about an innovative handheld device called the Zona Plus that could revolutionize blood pressure management.

We discuss the science behind how this simple device impacts your entire cardiovascular system and why it may help with more than just blood pressure (hint: better blood flow has wide-ranging benefits). We also share how easy it is to incorporate into your daily routine. 

Mark Young is the CEO of Zona Health, as well as several other companies related to the marketing of health and beauty-related products. Young is an avid proponent of natural health and anything related to a drug-free, medication-free lifestyle. To quote, "The Zona Plus is what is right about the healthcare industry. It is innovation and technology replacing corporate pharmaceutical bureaucracy and 'business as usual' healthcare." Young holds various degrees in diverse fields, including a BA from the University of Michigan, MBA from Cleary University, MACP from Moody Theological, MA from Central Michigan University, and an EdD (ABD) from the University of Michigan.

Episode #272: Joel Greene: Diving Into Nutritional Diversity for Performance and Longevity01 Oct 202401:18:29

We often hear that certain foods are "good" or "bad" for us. But what if the real key to health isn't about avoiding specific foods, but rather embracing diversity in our diets? In this Longevity podcast episode, I am joined by nutrition expert Joel Greene to discuss how nature's meal plan is built on variety and balance. 

We dive into ancestral eating patterns including periods of "foraging" followed by occasional feasts, why even "superfoods" can become problematic if eaten too often, and how to mitigate the effects of less-than-ideal meals. We also discuss the surprising benefits of foods like oats, bananas, and cactus and why short-term results don't always translate to long-term health. 

Joel Greene is the creator of the VEEP Nutrition System. He is a featured author, speaker, and guest in top-tier publications and his system has been featured on the Dr. Phil Show (among other shows), where it has delivered astounding life-changing results. He is the author of books such as The Immunity Code and his new book, "The Way: The Immunity Code Diet."

Episode #262: Dr. Nasha Winters: Understanding the Metabolic Approach to Cancer27 Aug 202401:17:56

Have you ever wondered if there's more to cancer treatment than just chemotherapy and radiation? In this Longevity Podcast episode, I talk with Dr. Nasha Winters to discuss the often-overlooked mental and emotional aspects of healing from cancer. Dr. Winters, a stage 4 ovarian cancer survivor of over 30 years, shares her incredible journey and the unconventional approach that transformed her health and career.

We also dive into an integrative approach, combining the best of conventional and alternative treatments, tailored to each individual's needs, the concept of metronomic chemotherapy - using lower doses more frequently, potentially reducing side effects while maintaining efficacy, psychedelic therapy (mushrooms), and much more.  

 

Dr. Nasha Winters is an integrative oncology specialist, author of "The Metabolic Approach to Cancer" and "Mistletoe and the Emerging Future of Integrative Oncology," host of the Metabolic Matters podcast, and Executive Director of the nonprofit organization, the Metabolic Terrain Institute of Health (MTIH).

Did you know, there's a superfood that's been around for billions of years that could transform your health? In this episode of The Longevity Podcast, I am joined by Catharine Arnston, creator of ENERGYbits, to discuss this superfood and its benefits for longevity. 

We discuss algae, specifically spirulina and chlorella, as a nutrient-dense food source, how it can fit into many diets, and the fact that it is highly bioavailable and quickly absorbed by the body, providing nourishment and balancing blood sugar levels. We also dive into algae's benefits for brain health, detoxification, gut microbiome, and the immune system. Overall, we discuss algae's ability to enhance the function of mitochondria, and the importance of choosing high-quality algae products.

Episode #246: Leveraging Essential Amino Acids for Muscle Growth, Preservation, and Vitality Across the Lifespan28 Jun 202401:31:27

Have you ever wondered what the key is to maintaining muscle mass and promoting health? In my latest podcast episode, I discuss the world of essential amino acids (EAAs) and their crucial role in building and preserving muscle, supporting vitality, and promoting overall health and longevity with Angelo Keely.

 

Our conversation goes over the fact that essential amino acids are not just building blocks for protein synthesis, but they also act as powerful signaling molecules that stimulate muscle growth and prevent breakdown. This means that consuming the right balance of EAAs can help you maintain muscle mass, reduce fatigue, and recover more efficiently from exercise or injury, regardless of your age. Angelo and I talk about the wide-ranging applications of EAAs, from the NASA protocol for preventing muscle loss in astronauts to the use of EAAs in clinical settings for injury recovery. You'll gain practical tips on optimizing your EAA intake, the best sources of EAAs, and how to incorporate them into your daily routine for maximum benefits.

 

Angelo Keely started Kion in 2017 in Boulder, Colorado, with the dream of building the healthiest, most inspiring work culture at the heart of a fast-growth, consumer products company that would be focused on motivating customers to go further on their personal health journey. The results have been astounding. Since 2017, Kion has developed many of the highest-possible quality supplements on the market and cultivated an incredibly passionate team.

What We Discuss: 

(00:04) From Wall Street to Mold Testing

(12:11) Understanding the Impact of Mold

(18:42) Health Impacts of Mold Exposure

(29:09) Health Risks of Artificial Scents

(34:24) Impact of Mold on Immune System

Episode #243: Beyond Wrinkles: How Your Skin's Microbes Impact Your Health Span with Kiran Krishnan18 Jun 202401:01:31

Could the health of your skin be one of the best predictors of chronic disease risk and mortality? 

 

In today's episode of The Longevity Podcast, Kiran Krishnan and I discuss how aging and dysfunction of skin, driven by changes in the skin microbiome, may actually precede and contribute to unhealthiness in the body, rather than simply reflecting it. Maintaining your skin's barrier function by supporting a balanced, diverse skin microbiome could be a crucial factor for health and longevity.

 

Our conversation delves into the science of the skin microbiome, how modern products and lifestyles impact it, and practical strategies to keep your skin's ecosystem thriving. Don't miss this episode, which may forever change how you think about skincare and healthy aging.

 

Kiran Krishnan is the chief microbiologist at Just Thrive with 20 years of experience in the dietary supplement and nutrition market. He comes from a strict research background, having spent several years with hands-on R&D in the fields of molecular medicine and microbiology at the University of Iowa.

Episode #242: Harnessing the Power of UVB Light for Health with Mitolux14 Jun 202401:19:32

Do you get enough sunlight? Most of us don't get adequate exposure to the sun's beneficial rays. 

 

In today's episode, I sit down with Gerardo Gutierrez (Guti), the creator of an innovative UV light device that mimics the healing properties of natural sunlight by delivering red, infrared, and UVB light frequencies in a specially formulated sequence. Guti shares insights from his research into how these different light bands impact our biology and overall well-being. Strategic sunlight exposure provides a wide range of health benefits - from boosting vitamin D, serotonin, and testosterone levels to improving conditions like eczema and psoriasis. 

 

Overall, this conversation provides a nuanced understanding of light and its impact on our health. We discuss the benefits of light therapy and the MitoLux device. 

 

A few years ago, Guti went through depression, low vitamin D levels, and other health issues. Instead of staying on medication long-term, he discovered the therapeutic benefits of sunlight exposure. Taking daily sunbaths allowed him to get off antidepressants and testosterone replacement therapy within just 3 months. Now Guti is on a mission to educate others about getting their "daily dose of sunshine" through strategic light exposure, whether from the sun itself or his therapeutic UV light invention.
