Longevity, Microplastics, and the Medicine That Might Change It All with Brad Younggren

Season 1 · Episode 70

Tuesday, September 23, 2025 • Duration 42:26

Send us a text

What if one of the most powerful tools for slowing biological aging has been hiding in plain sight for decades?

This week on The Daily Apple, Dr. Brad Younggren joins us to unpack therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and why it could be a game-changer for longevity. Dr. Younggren is an emergency medicine physician, U.S. Army combat veteran, and now CEO and co-founder of Circulate Health
. Under his leadership, Circulate has completed more than a thousand treatments across 24 clinics and published data showing an average 2.6-year slowdown in biological aging.

“Therapeutic plasma exchange isn’t just for rare hospital cases anymore. We’re learning it can lower inflammation, clear out harmful proteins, and even reduce microplastics — all things tied to how fast we age.” — Dr. Brad Younggren

We talk about:

What TPE actually is (and how it differs from a blood donation).
Results from the Circulate Trial and why they matter.
How plasma exchange impacts inflammation, senescent cells, and lipids.
Early research on microplastics and cognitive decline.
Why partnerships with clinics may be the fastest path to making longevity care more accessible.

Dr. Younggren also shares his own journey from combat medicine to pioneering new frontiers in healthspan, and where he sees longevity breakthroughs heading in the next decade.

🎙️ Listen now to learn how medicine, technology, and patient care are converging to help us live healthier, longer lives.

Takeaways

Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) uses established hospital technology in new ways to target aging and inflammation.
Clinical data from the Circulate Trial showed an average 2.6-year slowdown in biological aging after six treatments.
TPE may help reduce markers of inflammation, senescent cells, and even microplastics in the body.
Circulate Health partners with existing clinics instead of building its own, making the treatment more accessible.
Longevity medicine is moving fast — but staying grounded in rigorous science and real patient data is essential.

Why the Best Medicine Might Be Your Sneakers with Mary Pardee

Season 1 · Episode 69

Wednesday, September 17, 2025 • Duration 42:51

Send us a text

Exercise is not just about looking good. It is medicine.

Dr. Mary Pardee is back with us to talk about why movement is one of the most powerful and most overlooked prescriptions we have. We get into muscle as “money in the bank” for aging, how to think about strength training if you hate weights, and why consistency beats motivation every single time.

Speaking about resilience and muscle, Dr. Pardee put it this way:
“Yeah, it’s like a retirement account, right? Where you have something to fall back on if times get tough.”

We also cover sarcopenia, brain health, mitochondria, and the kind of “dose” of exercise that really changes your future. This one is packed with practical stuff you can use today.

🎙️ Full episode out now on The Daily Apple.

Key Takeaways

Exercise is one of the most underutilized prescriptions in healthcare.
Consistency matters more than motivation: treat workouts like brushing your teeth.
Muscle is “currency for aging” and protects against sarcopenia, osteoporosis, and poor outcomes later in life.
Exercise supports brain health by boosting BDNF and lowering dementia risk.
The right “dose” of strength and cardio is measurable and trackable, just like any other prescription.
Building muscle gives you resilience: “Yeah, it’s like a retirement account, right? Where you have something to fall back on if times get tough.” — Dr. Mary Pardee

What if your biggest barrier to peak performance isn’t your schedule—but your emotional energy? 🧠💥

In this episode, Kevin sits down with Dr. Jarrod Spencer, a psychologist who works with high-performers—from world-class athletes to overwhelmed executives—to unpack what’s really going on with burnout, emotional fatigue, and why Gen X is seriously running on fumes.

Dr. Spencer breaks down the science of emotional energy, why it matters way more than we think, and how managing it is the real secret to better sleep, sharper thinking, and actually enjoying your life again. They get into counseling (no, it’s not just for when you’re “in crisis”), the power of gratitude, and why excitement—not hustle—might be your most underused resource.

He also shares stories from working with legendary figures like Larry Holmes and Muhammad Ali, and what we can all learn from their emotional resilience.

Burnout is real—and hitting Gen X hard.
Emotional energy isn’t woo-woo, it’s fuel.
Rest and recovery aren’t lazy—they’re leadership.
Counseling works (even when you're not falling apart).

Sleep is a non-negotiable performance tool.
History has some pretty good advice if we’re paying attention.

🎧 Give it a listen, share with a friend who’s been running on empty, and maybe cancel that 5 a.m. “grindset” alarm while you’re at it.

Send us a text

In this episode of The Daily Apple, Kevin and Sam (aka Sam Sam the DEXAScan Man 🧪) break down one of the biggest silent threats to your health—visceral fat—and what to actually do about it. This isn’t just about tightening your belt. We’re talking inflammation, heart disease, diabetes, sleep disruption… the works.

From real-life DEXA scan stories (shoutout to the 6 pounds of surprise belly fat 👀) to practical, no-BS advice, the guys outline the “cheat code” to tackling visceral adiposity. Spoiler: it's not about being perfect—it's about picking just three things and doing them consistently.

🔥 The 8 Things to Tackle Visceral Fat:

Cut Refined Carbs & Added Sugars – Less soda, more real food.
Move More (Even Just a Walk) – Fancy workout plans? Optional. Daily movement? Required.
Limit Alcohol – Sorry, but booze is a fat-burning blocker.
Stay Hydrated – Your cells and metabolism will thank you.
Get Better Sleep – Seriously, this might be the most important one.
Strength Train (Even Just 2x/Week) – Muscle is metabolic gold.
Try Intermittent Fasting (if it fits your life) – A helpful tool, not a magic trick.
Reduce Stress – Walking after dinner counts. So does not yelling at traffic.

takeaways

Visceral fat is a significant risk factor for metabolic diseases.
Creating a caloric deficit is essential for fat loss.
Small dietary changes can lead to significant health improvements.
Regular movement is crucial, even if it's not structured exercise.
Alcohol consumption can hinder fat burning processes.
Hydration plays a vital role in overall health and fat loss.
