Biowater, Real Hydration, & The World’s #1 Anti-Aging Elixir | Isabel Friend

Whether searching on other planets, or surviving on Earth, we know that water is a biological necessity. ~99/100 molecules in the human body are water. We're basically human aquariums, only as healthy as our internal "biowater". This episode explores how the vitality of water measurably impacts us, how to upgrade your own water, and little-known ancestral wisdom. Meet our guest Isabel is an international water advocate, speaker, activist, and educator. She's been studying water for 12 years and teaching about water for 6 years in 6 countries. Her wellness philosophy centers around the idea that the closer we come to nature, the healthier and more human we become. Contrarily, when we stray from these foundational laws of life, we become ill and feel disconnected from our Source. She's passionate about bringing modern scientific understanding together with ancient ancestral wisdom in a way that grounds primal elemental practices into our 21st-century lifestyles.

This Superhuman Fuel Regenerates, Optimizes, & Boosts Every Organ & Bodily System | George Wiseman @ Eagle Research (AquaCure)

Do you have a scar somewhere on your body? If so, deficient in the nutrient hydrogen. When the body doesn't have enough hydrogen, it shuts down its regenerative systems. Recovery takes longer. Your vitality suffers. Chronic conditions arise. You can either perfect the integrity and health of your gut (and do everything in your power to maximize hydrogen absorption from food). Or you can use the easy and far more effective solution — Brown's Gas. Meet our guest George Wiseman grew up on a ranch in the backwoods of British Columbia; learning the value of hard work, knowledge, and skills. He became a Jack Of All Trades and subsequently became an inventor that has changed entire industries with his innovations. George started working with Brown's Gas in 1986, creating practical machines to apply this amazing gas in applications such as Fuel Saving, Torch-Fuel Gas, and Radioactive Neutralization.   He has become recognized worldwide and renowned in the practical applications of Brown's Gas. In 1996 his customers told him of their astonishing healings using Brown's Gas. It took them until 2005 to convince Mr. Wiseman to try the Brown's Gas on himself and he subsequently had substantial health improvements. Currently, he's developed a machine specifically optimized to safely provide Brown's Gas for Health in every home. Thank you to our partners Outliyr Peak Performance Shop: get exclusive discounts on cutting-edge health, wellness, & performance gear AquaCure AC50 Brown's Gas Machine to fix your hydrogen deficiency and stimulate the body's regenerative mechanisms Key takeaways Most of the ailments of man are either caused by or exacerbated by hydrogen deficiency When people are sick, usually their energy reserves have been drained and their energy generation systems have been compromised. Brown's Gas solves this energy crisis. Just 12 seconds of inhaling Brown's Gas provides the Molecular Hydrogen dosage equivalence of 1L of 1.6 ppm water Links Watch it on YouTube: https://youtu.be/a8DMepruC4I Full episode show notes: https://mindbodypeak.com/49  Connect with Nick on social media Instagram Twitter/X YouTube LinkedIn Easy ways to support Subscribe Leave an Apple Podcast review Suggest a guest Do you have questions, thoughts, or feedback for us?

Reversing Aging, Quantifying Your Biological TruAge, & The Future of Healthspan Extension | Ryan Smith @ TruDiagnostic

Blood work and wearables are reactive and only sometimes show emergency trends. How do you know whether "healthy" lifestyle practices work for you? What if they're actually not compatible with your particular biochemistry, and worsening your health? What if you had a test that could quantify the impact of your supplements, drugs, fitness, sleep, or habits on any outcome? Say disease risk, IQ, healthspan, or athletic performance? Well, it exists. And this week we're diving deep into the science, applications, and buyer's guide to biological age testing. Meet our guest Ryan Smith attended Transylvania University and graduated with a degree in Biochemistry. After finishing all the educational curriculum and passing USMLE Step 1 he decided to leave and open up a pharmacy in the United States that focused on peptide synthesis and formulations for pharmaceutical preparations. That pharmacy, Tailor Made Compounding, became the 4th fastest growing company in healthcare in the US. During that time Ryan invested in several businesses in the functional medicine space. Ryan exited Tailor Made in late 2020. Since then, Ryan has opened many businesses including TruDiagnostic, a company focusing on methylation array-based diagnostics for life extension and preventive healthcare. TruDiagnostic is a CLIA certified lab and health data company focused on serving integrative and functional medicine providers in the United States. TruDiagnostic has a commitment to research with over 30 approved clinical research studies investigating the epigenetic methylation changes of a variety of longevity and health interventions. Since Tru Diagnostic's inception, they have created one of the largest private epigenetic health databases in the world with over 13,000 patients tested and continue to lead the space in epigenetic methylation interpretation and diagnostic prediction.

Almost-Forgotten Japanese Longevity Scrolls, Spermidine for Anti-Aging, & Sexual Health | Leslie Kenny

Spermidine may be the hottest anti-aging compound of the last decade, but is it possible that ancient Japanese longevity scrolls alluded to it over a century ago? What other wisdom did these scrolls contain? Thanks to our guest this week, these nearly-forgotten secrets live on. Meet our guest Oxford Healthspan was founded by Leslie Kenny, a Southern California entrepreneur and graduate of both Berkeley and Harvard, whose life was turned upside down when she was diagnosed with lupus and rheumatoid arthritis in her 30s. When her doctors told her lupus had a life expectancy of five years and that RA could only be managed, not cured, she set out to optimize her health as best she could with safe, natural solutions. She went back to school at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in NYC, became a Bulletproof coach under health pioneer Dave Asprey, and took on health coaching clients worldwide. At the same time, she began helping life science academics at European universities, including Oxford, to raise money for their discoveries. She met a scientist who introduced her to a promising compound called spermidine. The science was compelling – one scientist even called it "an anti-aging vitamin" in a published scientific journal – and it was safe. S till, because it was natural, food-derived, and not a profitable drug, no one was interested in promoting it. Spermidine wasn't available in the US, so she decided to bring it to the US herself. Today, at age 56, Leslie is living proof that we can get better with age, so long as we take responsibility for our health and meet our doctors halfway.

Health Starts With Your Oral Microbiome | Brian Maurer @ Bristle Health

The cleanest, pasture-raised, biodynamic, grass-fed, organic food won't do an unhealthy mouth much good. Even before digestion, with every bite, pathogens can enter the bloodstream through infected gums. Increasing permeability of the blood-brain barrier and leading to neuroinflammation. Brushing and flossing are a good start. But our one or two annual trips to the dentist puts us in reactive mode. Holistic health is about prevention, so why should oral care be any different? What my mouth needs will differ from yours. That's where Bristle can help. Meet our guest Brian Maurer started his career in genomics, at the DNA sequencing company Illumina. There he was on the ground floor of the genomics revolution that is taking place in healthcare and beyond. Brian got to work with some of the most cutting-edge scientists and companies innovating in areas like oncology, synthetic biology, CRISPR, and more. He co-founded Bristle a year ago with the mission of leveraging genomics technology to fundamentally change how we understand and practice oral health. Thank you to our partners Outliyr Peak Performance Shop : get exclusive discounts on cutting-edge health, wellness, & performance gear Bristle Health decodes your oral microbiome and personalizes recommendations so you can easily improve your health and proactively fix any issues before the dentist does (using toxic chemicals that cause more issues down the line) Key takeaways 9/10 adults brush their teeth incorrectly 90% of Americans have one or more cavities, and 47% have some form of gum disease (which correlates strongly with systemic disease) Diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer's, and other forms of neurodegeneration are diseases of inflammation that often begin in the mouth Saliva is a powerful anti-microbial defense that also helps speed up wound healing.

Used and researched by NASA, the US military, brain health experts, Tour de France cyclists, Olympians and professional athletes in most sports (NFL, NBA, MLB, UFC), and other high-achievers. A new drink called Hard Ketones contains a different kind of ketone (R1,3 Butanediol) notable as an alcohol alternative for social confidence, relaxation, boosting mood, and crushing appetite. Our conversation this week explores how anyone can use these ketone products for greater quality of life. Meet our guest Frank Llosa is a serial entrepreneur with successes across industries, including real estate, photography featured in National Geographic, and pre-dot com startups. After extensive research, 6 years ago Frank founded KetoneAid — the World's 1st Ketone Ester. KetoneAid has supplied 80% of the Tour de France teams.
