SuperAge: Live Better — Education
SuperAge: Live Better

David Stewart, founder of AGEIST magazine and thought leader, brings in a range of high-profile guests to share their secrets of living your best life with regards to: wellness, health, fitness, finance and relationships.There is no shortage of advice, role models or influencers for those under 40. But these seem to disappear once you hit your prime. And at a time when media and brands really don’t understand, market or speak to any generation above the age of 40, our goal is to shine a light on a positive mindset and way of living for those over 40, over 50, over 60 and over 70.The SuperAge podcast helps paint the picture of living your best life, aging well and healthy aging. Pro-aging as a counterbalance to ageism. We have a positive approach to healthy aging, personal goal setting, relationships, style, culture, community and living with purpose. AGEIST provides a new outlook on longevity, healthy aging, and aging well. Health and Wellness: When we talk about wellness for those of us over 40, over 50, over 60 or over 70, it is all science-based. You will learn about hormesis and homeostasis, the benefits of heat and cold exposure, and the importance of community to our longevity. Scientists and experts discuss: the important role sleep plays in our overall health, breathing techniques to reduce stress, light therapy, cortisol, heart health, and biohacking. We also cover brain health, neuroplasticity, curiosity, and novelty.Nutrition and Diet: Food and nutrition advice for those over 40, over 50, over 60 and over 70 are based in science as well. Everything from hydration, supplements, collagen, fasting, micronutrients, macronutrients, autophagy, and cellular clean up all help in increasing longevity. As we age, when we eat is just as important as what we eat – especially for women entering perimenopause and menopause. SuperAge experts discuss: how much water we need for proper hydration, the importance of keeping up our bone density, and why adding 15 colorful foods a day is helpful for gut health.Fitness and Exercise: We’ve grown up hearing about the importance of exercise. But for fitness over 50 and to increase longevity, weight lifting, aerobic activities and HIIT (high intensity interval training) sessions play an important role. At AGEIST, we believe in tracking not just our activity, but our recovery time as well. It’s in the recovery that our body does the work to improve our overall health and fitness.Meditation: Reducing stress and lowering anxiety can play a big role in improving overall health. Learn how reducing stress from traumatic events, job strain, and finances can slow down the aging of our immune system. Meditation – guided or on your own is an important tool for reducing stress and anxiety. Travel and Culture: It’s all about the adventure. Travel is a favorite activity for those of us in our 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and 80′. Hear from experts on the best places for travel over 50, what to wear over 50, and how to make the most of your time in retirement years. Finance: We approach finances through the lens of what proper financial planning and budgeting can do for your lifestyle after 50. Our retirement experts discuss: lifetime income, retirement planning, saving and investing, the stock market, IRAs, and 401k plans. Career: Professional endeavors do not end at the typical retirement age anymore. We are seeing more and more encore careers, passion careers, entrepreneurs, and breaking of the glass ceiling. AGEIST believes that diversity and inclusion in business and in life are enriching for us all. How will you SuperAge?

Dr. Marc Cohen Reveals Sauna Study Misconceptions Nov 21, 2024

Dr. Marc Cohen reveals a significant oversight in the celebrated Kuopio Ischemic sauna study, which linked sauna use with a marked decrease in all-cause mortality: the critical role of cold exposure. While the research attributes dramatic health benefits to saunas alone, Dr. Cohen points out that in Finland, the practice inherently includes cold plunges—a factor often excluded in Western interpretations. He explains how alternating between hot and cold amplifies cardiovascular benefits, detoxification, and mental resilience. This episode challenges long-held assumptions and offers practical advice for harnessing the true power of sauna and cold therapy.

“The mind generates ideas. For example, most of us think we are subject to those ideas that we don't have any choice about because the mind is generating them. But that is not the case. The reality is the mind is one of our tools. We are the boss of the mind. We get to tell the mind what to think on its own.”
“Conscious breathing means taking conscious control of the breathing. In the same way that we talked about taking conscious control of the mind as a tool, we are now going to the breathing apparatus.”
“We are born, we live a life and we die. The best thing that we can do is celebrate the very fact that we got to be here, life in and of itself is worthy of celebration.”

“Keeping our blood vessels in a healthy state is the beating heart of what I actually study… And the good news is that there are foods that can actually help us achieve that.”
“One of the biggest myths about inflammation is that it is categorically bad. And that's just not true. And I can tell you this, as a physician, as a doctor, and also as a scientist. Thank goodness we've got inflammation in our body. Inflammation is our first responder system of the body.”
“There are foods that can actually lower inflammation, boost immunity, and cut off the blood supply that feeds cancers. There is a type of definition around “prescription foods” for people with diabetes, etc. for medically tailored meals. That makes sense. What I'm talking about, this is a food as medicine approach. It is an every person approach. You could be at any age. You could be healthy. You could be sick. This is something that's going to actually be in your best interest, to be able to optimize your health at any point in your lifespan, as definitely as you age.”

“I have the nickname the Queen of pain. I'm known for being tough as nails, gritty, all that kind of stuff. But people are always surprised when they meet me. I am quite soft and sensitive and caring, and they don't expect that.”
"I feel like probably the biggest metric that has been helping me is learning how much stress the body is absorbing, even when you're not working out. Whether its a stressful job, or you're thinking and ruminating on something, the body is taking that almost as workout stress."
"Real diligent self-care. We used to think that that was reserved for Olympians and world champions–athletes have been doing this stuff for a while. Now it's accessible to everybody. And people are realizing, oh, if I treat myself like world champion, I'm going to perform like a world champion in whatever arena I'm in. And it feels great to feel good, doesn't it?"
"Astronauts do the same thing. They go through the routine of knowing what's going to happen so that when something unexpected happens, you fall back on what you know, and you don't have to be an astronaut or someone riding your bike in Alaska to take that kind of training to everyday life."

"The best models will come from integrating multiple data sets. But for the sake of time, convenience and price, we're trying to consolidate all into just epigenome methylation. We think it's uniquely suited to do that."

"So you can actually get the test back and say, where do I rank among the true diagnostic cohort for my glucose? Is it higher or lower than average? Is my fattening higher."

Accidental Icon Lyn Slater, PhD, Being True To Yourself Apr 17, 2024

In this week's episode of the SuperAge podcast, we're joined by Lyn Slater, Ph.D. Also known as the Accidental Icon, she is an author, former social worker, and professor. Along with her new book How To Be Old, Lyn discusses how her career in social work–dealing with trauma and violence–led her to seek creative outlets, which ultimately inspired her transition to fashion blogging. Lyn emphasizes her aim to explore fashion sociologically, as a tool for identity expression and subversion, rather than focusing on age. She then recounts her unexpected rise to fame via a Valentino ad, and how it shifted her identity from a person to a brand. As an influencer, she experienced a loss of creativity and control, leading to dissatisfaction. The pandemic provided a turning point, allowing her to reconnect with her passion for writing and reshape her engagement on social media. Lyn's insights on idealized aging, its relation to privilege, and the need for more inclusive and realistic portrayals of aging are thought-provoking. She advocates for aging as a creative practice, using her experiences to encourage others to embrace risks and accept life's unpredictable nature, regardless of age.

“Being old is a transaction between a mind, a body and a context.”
“I think part of why it worked was because I was an ordinary woman, and so a lot of ordinary people saw me and said, wow, if she could do that, maybe I could too. And so that was the time I was getting like 100,000 followers in a day. And my phone was going crazy.”
“The difference between when all those things happened to me during my 20s is that I probably had a toolbox, a toolbox that had a hammer in the nail, and but at 70, I have so many skills, so many experiences, so many assets that I can bring to the challenges of age.”

"So I also like to really highlight even to people who don't necessarily think they have this innovative entrepreneur or problem solving ability. Every human being had to do this the first day that you were on lockdown, you know, mothers, fathers, children had to figure out what they were going to do with their limited resources in their new world."
"To make a substantial change, you have to go into what's known as cocooning. You actually have to go through almost a mourning period for what you did accomplish running that company. What did you leave behind? And by necessity, you have to spend some time alone, particularly coming out of that experience of people, people, people coming at you. With that in mind, it is really important to get into nature."
"There's a certain amount of courage that is needed to move forward to be useful with people."

DEXA Scans: What They Are, and Why You Should Get One with Nick Holt Apr 03, 2024

In this week's episode, we talk with Nick Holt, a passionate health coach and personal trainer, about the ins and outs of DEXA scans. These scans, Nick explains, are not just for measuring body fat and bone health (which is important to keep an eye on as we age), but are also vital for understanding overall metabolic health.
Additionally, Nick shares insights on the difference between subcutaneous and visceral fat, emphasizing the health implications of each. We also explore the significant role of muscle mass in our bodies, not just for physical strength and function, but also for metabolic health and glucose regulation.

“I think it's a powerful tool to see how your training is going and if you're on the right track or if you need to change or modify anything which gets into the muscle mass conversation too, which is just as important for metabolic health in addition to performance.”
“So a lot of the guys that I'm working with, we're on sort of a 6 to 12 month cadence with the test. I think it's a really good idea to have it as sort of like a baseline test at first and then chart out sort of a goal 6 to 12 months later to try to hit either a body composition goal, or a lot of people use it for some of their female friends who have had some osteopenia, osteoporosis.”
"Visceral fat, which is in and around your organs is really inflammatory and can be quite problematic. But subcutaneous fat, the stuff that's kind of in between muscle, the jiggly stuff that's soft, and maybe doesn't look as nice, but is pretty innocuous."

Key Moments
“But also one of the “clinical knowns” of aging is the pillar of inflammation. Inflammation is one of the 12 pillars of aging. And as we accumulate enough birthday candles to set our kitchens on fire, our bodies deal with inflammation less and less well, and that just contributes to this picture of cartilage wear, which is arthritis.”
“Once you start wearing down your cartilage, it creates an inflammatory environment that we can measure in the joint fluid, which leads to more wear and tear and becomes a cycle. Before I go on with that, I want everybody listening to know that there are profound studies, however, that show that a lifetime of things like endurance running do not cause arthritis because you'll hear some very misled doctors say, ‘you better stop running and you're going to give yourself arthritis.’”
“How can you create an anti-inflammatory lifestyle? Number one, I want to de-inflame your whole body by cutting out simple sugars and wasteful, simple carb foods. Right? Our bodies are not trash compactors. It matters what you put in them, especially if you want to get out of inflammatory pain.”

“There are some [awe] triggers for awe. And one of them is just vastness.”
“Actually, turning your focus away from your self outward has been shown to be much better for your mental health. I'm not taking away from therapy or massages or anything, but it's worth saying that if we need to feel better, focusing outwardly is a valuable component of self-soothing.”

We have these huge hormonal fluctuations and then we're trying to work and we're trying to do it all. We're trying to be superwomen, right? Because that's what's expected in our modern world. And then our body, our nervous system is giving us clues that you're not okay.

Using AI to Predict Death with Sune Lehmann Mar 06, 2024

In this week’s episode, we welcome Sune Lehmann, a network and complexity scientist at the Technical University of Denmark. Sune shares insights into his revolutionary work using algorithms to predict health outcomes, income, and mortality, drawing on extensive datasets from Danish citizens. He emphasizes the power of viewing human lives as sequences of events, akin to language, and how this perspective can lead to groundbreaking predictions about individuals' futures. We also get into the ethical considerations and future implications of this research, highlighting the balance between predictive accuracy and the importance of shared risk in insurance. Additionally, he touches on the once-Danish-now-global phenomenon of cold water swimming, illustrating how this practice offers a unique sense of well-being and mental clarity.

“From a certain perspective, human lives are sequences, right? You're born, you are seen by a doctor. They do some measurements and all of that information can be structured to create, let's say, the sentence of your life.
And so what we did is that we took an enormous dataset and we used the same technology that lies underneath the AI large language models, and we built a kind of general model for human lives.”
“That model, as long as you have training data, can really predict anything about humans. I mean, it might do things with kind of varying quality, but for the things that we've tested it, it performs better than any other algorithm that we can find.”
“So lots of people have kind of contacted me saying let's let's use this for something that's actually meaningful and useful. And I think, you know, what's amazing about what we do is that we also model not just the medical data, but the data around the life that people live.”

“Alliance for Longevity Initiatives is a5001c for nonprofit organization focused on representing the longevity, biotech industry and general movement on Capitol Hill.”
“This is the next generation of health care. And, you know, it's their job as members of Congress to support and spread awareness around this topic and ultimately try to push more resources towards this effort.”
“You know, this is a major driver of economic growth. Right. I'm sure you have seen the longevity dividend argument, which, you know, the latest iteration argues, I think, $37 trillion in GDP gains for one extra healthy year of life expectancy–and even if that's off by, you know, 90%, that's still a, you know, $3.7 trillion is still worth pursuing.”
“So really right now, there are two or three major asks that I know will help the longevity industry and thus I believe, increase healthy lifespan in the U.S. First and foremost, there needs to be more foundational research for this space in geroscience in general from the federal government. I believe in 2023, 0.6% of the budget went to geroscience research at the NIH and aging is responsible for 70% of daily deaths. The second thing we want to get done is we want to help or really we want to help companies better design clinical trials through guidance from the FDA and support through congressional action. So those are the two big wishlist items you know, ultimately what we'd like to see in the long term, maybe medium long term, is a longevity initiatives bill.”

We also have a Health and Human Services operation called MusicCares, which is not just about addiction support, but but really for people in any kind of crisis, economic crisis or otherwise”
“There's something about music and the way that music makes us feel that whether it is a classical artist, a jazz artist, a country artist, a hip hop artist, any EDM artist or rock artist, we're all in this music tribe, and it just really generates an incredible feeling of belonging.”
“We want to make sure we're talking about craft, right? There are plenty of award shows that are about the most streamed artists, or maybe the artists that sold the most tickets or had the most revenue off of their tours or whatever. That's not us. We're a different thing.”

But I do think you have to get out there and put yourself out there, not be afraid, because you know what happens to all of us.
There is a place to go. There's something whether it's an activity or a hobby or whatever it is, there's something out there to go to, even no matter how big or small.
I realize now when I have a problem or I'm worried or fretting about something, there are those people that I can text or pick up the phone and talk to that make me feel like it's all going to be okay. And that's what that community is about. That's what that small community is about.
I watch my dad, who is 84. He goes to his gym, he meets people and goes out to restaurants by himself. He is determined to make sure he keeps doing that, even though a lot of his friends have passed away. And so I was like, Oh, he can do that. I should be doing that, because I think it's really, really hard and I think that sense of community is really necessary and really special. And I think that's kind of what we're all here for in the end.

“So the traditional health care and medical practice in our country, in the US and most of the world concerns really considering everyone to be baseline healthy until they get sick to a level where they're very sick and they cross some kind of a threshold for diagnosis of having an actual disease. So even though we call it health care, a lot of people kind of pejoratively describe it as sick care.”
“In short-lived species you can extend lifespans manyfold. One single gene mutation in worms can extend their lifespans by 10X, for example. And even in mice, we have interventions now that can extend their lifespans by 30% or 40% sometimes. And many of these interventions work across multiple species. So we believe they’re likely to work for people as well."
“I wanted them to realize how big [the longevity field] had gotten so that they wouldn't delay getting into it with more serious amounts of money. They didn't realize that they were two years behind given how fast it was growing.”

“Aesthetics was a goal of mine, but more importantly, as I had gained weight, my health declined. And what did that look like? I became pre-diabetic. I started having joint pain in my knees specifically. Unfortunately, I have 50 stairs from the ground level to my front door. I had to go up and down the stairs every day.”
“Before, I wasn't even very good about getting my blood work done regularly. Now I do it twice a year. That's a huge part of my health regimen. I take supplements based on what my blood work says. And I think you have to be intentional like this if you want to age strong and healthy and vibrant.”
“They see me muscular and in a bikini. And at 53, they say ‘that's not what someone should be doing.’ I do feel there is some of this ageism in those comments. I really do feel that. I also think we're very focused on: ‘well, you were fine before. Why did you do that?' – I wasn't fine. Right. I was pre-diabetic. I woke up exhausted. I felt like crap most days, right? My quality of life was poor. So I think we need to get beyond what we see and realize that this was a health journey.”

“I think there's a lot going on in the world of longevity that unfortunately the FDA is trying to block.

“I always tell people that we have a few different goals in mind. Our first goal is to optimize along the most common things we need to make sure your nutrition, your exercise and your sleep is perfect, right? And so as close to perfect as we can get it.”

Habits Over Fads: Embracing Long-Term Health and Fitness with David Stewart Jan 03, 2024

This week, we discuss the importance of setting realistic and sustainable goals. If we can form positive, long-term habits rather than resorting to extreme, short-term “resolutions,” we can get more healthy every day. Reflecting on previous goals, David shares personal anecdotes and lessons learned. Why not take a gradual approach to fitness and nutrition that aligns with one's lifestyle and capabilities? The episode is a blend of practical advice and motivational insights aimed at fostering a healthier, more self-aware approach to personal growth and well-being.

“When people think about goals for the new year, they often initially think about things like diets and exercise, fitness, these sort of things. What I have seen, I've seen this multiple times. I have engaged in this myself and I can tell you it does not work.”
“We're looking to establish habits, habits that we can keep for a long period of time. Extreme diets are not a habit. They're sort of a short term occasion, and just a recipe for failure. We want to slightly modify what we're doing so that we can achieve it, so we can pat ourselves on the back and say “great job, reevaluate in three months.”
“So this is an achievable target and it's measurable, which is really key about this.”

“It's better to be green and growing than ripe and rotting. Like just because you've had a few wins and adventures in your past doesn't mean that you need to hang up your hat.”
“The longer we're in an environment where we're by ourselves, that's where this stuff gets really, really dangerous because we simply lose track of what's possible. So we retreat to autopilot, which works on the condition that you're very intentional with it. If you're not intentional and you don't have a process of getting around really high-level thinkers on a consistent basis, then you need to be conscious that that autopilot is going to eventually work against you”
“It's really important to think about what season of life you're in and what is the metric for you to determine whether or not you're making the right progress. And sometimes just simply being on the right journey is enough. It doesn't matter about some of these other things that may or may not have manifested, just simply being on the right path and being aware of what's around you and putting one foot in front of the other, knowing that the universe is working for you.”

“We started out helping people to stop smoking and we found that one out of five people just stopped smoking using the [Reveri] app right away. So that's about as good as I get when people are sitting in my office and I'm doing it. And it's about as good as you get using varenicline or bupropion or nicotine patches as an alternative.”
“They learned to control their pain with self-hypnosis so that a new pain in their chest didn't automatically mean to them that their disease was progressing. It meant they needed to do something to control the pain. And they did. So they had half the pain. And in our original study that we published in The Lancet, we found that the women randomized to work groups actually live longer than the control patients by an average of a year and a half.”
“We found actually that people with breast cancer who were inefficient sleepers, who had trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep, actually also had shorter survival. But the other way around is that good sleepers live longer. It was having a long period of good 7 hours of consistent sleep at night, predicted with fewer disruptions, predicted longer survival with breast cancer.”
“After a deep inhale, a slow exhale is important. And part of why it is is, you know, we're used to saying, you know, if you're anxious or tense, take a deep breath. Well, actually, the inhale actually tends to increase sympathetic activity because it reduces venous return or blood to the heart. If you think about it, you're lowering pressure in the chest.”

Using AI to Change the Face of Longevity with Greg Macpherson Dec 06, 2023

In this show, we learn that incredibly high powered AI is now being used in human nutraceutical research, specially targeting the 9 hallmarks of aging. Our guest Greg Macpherson, CEO of SRW Labs in New Zealand, joins us this week to share all about how automated labs are making unprecedented progress in identifying and creating compounds that may solve human longevity. By automating many of the tedious testing and refinement processes, AI labs are able to work with extreme efficiency, which translates to bringing meaningful longevity products to the public with extraordinary speed. We are very excited to learn about this from Greg, and to hear that we could be expecting to see some new targeted products hitting the market by summer 2024.

“So we are going to get to a stage where we get to have a DNA test before we start taking medicine and you know there may be 10 drugs on the shelf that are appropriate for whatever condition that's being treated and they'll select the one that's best for you. But also they'll be able to look at it and go, okay, look, there's a high chance, given your genetic makeup, that these are going to be a problem.”

“There are animals out there that live for 200 years like the bowhead whale. They are mammals just like us, so there's no reason that we can't learn from whatever genetic hacks that they've got which mean that they live longer. And then, of course, the Greenland shark lives for 500 years. So these are animals. We can learn from them, and once we do, then all bets are off as to what kind of longevity we're going to see.

“Of course it's not the longevity that we think of today. We're going to be talking about bodies aged 30 to 40 and having those bodies for 200 years, which is a little outside a frame of reference right now. But future humans are going to go ‘golly, those poor people back then who only got to live for 80 years and only 40 years in good health.’”

“In 3-5 years, there will be a product to slow or stop the aging clock”

“You know, unfortunately, sugar is cheap and it's tasty and it's nice and we all love it. So there's just a huge industry around it, but it's not serving us well, and now we understand that, just like we went through taxing tobacco, maybe we've got to do the same just to nudge the population away from it and educate people how bad it is for us.”

The Everyday Performance Mindset with Dr. Lauren Loberg Nov 28, 2023

We are very excited to have sports and performance psychologist Dr. Lauren Loberg on the show this week to ruminate on the intersection of everyday life and this idea of a “performance mindset.” Everyone wants to do their best, and using insights from working with the world’s top athletes (think: NFL stars and pro skiers like Mikaela Shiffrin), Dr. Loberg shares her tips on how we can implement high performance mental strategies into our daily lives. Together, we discuss anxiety, flow state, and the value of mental preparedness.

“If someone comes to you and says I want to be fit this summer, what does that mean? What exactly does that mean? Or ‘I want to be more present.’ Well, what does that mean for you? What does that look like? Like, what's the action? Because when people provide us with these really arbitrary things and sometimes they do, they can keep judging themselves on it because there's no measurement to it. Does that make sense?”
“I think that everyone can be mentally tough, but it's also a thing that takes time. Remember that some of the things you struggle with mentally, might stem from a pattern that you've had for 50 years. Putting this in the context of sports, if you tried to change your golf swing or basketball shot after 50 years of playing, would you be able to fix it in five tries? No. The same goes for mental toughness.”
“You can kind of learn how to embrace fear, the fear of when it becomes paralyzing. That's the part that you have to talk through.”

Kaatsu: A Japanese Technique to Effortlessly Gain Muscle and Improve Your Heart Nov 22, 2023

Is it possible to build muscle without lifting weights? Can we tone our facial muscles? Is it possible to improve our cardiovascular system with almost no effort? Today, we sit down with former USA swim coach and Kaatsu CEO Steven Munatones. He tells us all about his decades-long journey of discovery and tutelage under Dr. Yoshiaki Sato in Tokyo, wherein he studied the myriad benefits of Japanese Kaatsu bands and developed a plan to introduce this technology to the world. Huge amounts of research out of Japan are showing that one can maintain strength and vitality as they age, improve overall vascular function, rehabilitate injuries all with zero risk of injury.

“Why would someone [restrict blood flow]? They do it for a variety of reasons, and there's a lot of literature out there by researchers, scientists, physicians, and physical therapists, and you want to do this mostly to build muscle. Building muscle helps if you're injured, maybe you had a surgery on your knee, maybe you broke your arm. It helps reduce atrophy. And so part of the recovery process is rebuilding that muscle loss. When you use BFR, you actually reduce the amount of muscle atrophy that you get, so your body will heal itself and then you go through a shorter recovery period because you're not losing as much muscle mass.”

“Fundamentally, what's happening is a bit of hypoxia or lack of oxygen in the muscle. If you do movement as simple as bicep curls. It could be stretching, it can be walking, whatever you want to do that leads to that uncomfortable feeling you have when you work out. That lactate sends a signal through your central nervous system up to your brain. And then the brain thinks that you are doing something very vigorous, something very intense. And when the brain receives that signal again, the brain does not know if you're lifting heavy weight or you're just doing BFR. So it reacts as it naturally does and produces growth hormones amongst other metabolites, which flow through our vascular system and promote muscle growth”

“The Japanese found that when you engorged the limbs and blood and you do slight movement, this is the most effective way to trigger those signals up to the brain and then release a variety of hormones.”

Defining the Hero: Reflections on Responsibility, Community, and Compassion with Author Chris McDougall Nov 15, 2023

This week, we host Chris McDougall, runner, reporter, and author of Born to Run, on the show to discuss his wide-ranging life experience. His concept of the hero is that they are responsible for others, that we humans are designed to be cooperative, that we are at our best when we are thoughtful and caring. In it all, it is important that we seek out fun. From learning from Mexico’s Rarámuri ultrarunners, to training a mistreated donkey to join him in competing in the 29-mile Pack Burro race in the Rockies, Chris’ life has been anything but average. Now living on Oahu, Hawaii, the 61 year-old continues to push himself to uncover stories, pick up new hobbies, and reflect on how his past informs his present day outlook on health, wellness, and keys to longevity.

“I think what bothers me the most–and this applies in every aspect of our lives–is this sad human arrogance that we can outthink two million years of evolution. Natural selection has created this unbelievably complex self-healing device.”
“I spent a lot of time on the Greek island of Crete looking at World War II resistance fighters. Crete was one place that had a sensational story about average citizens who rose up to resist the German occupation. Again, these are not trained soldiers, these are just citizens who overnight, literally from one week to the next, went from being citizens into being military operatives against the most formidable army on the planet. And so my question was well, how do you do that physically? How do you turn yourself into a super soldier? And one of the things I looked at was diet.”
“You know one thing when you look at the human animal, there are two things that we are really good at. We are extraordinarily adaptive–we're very creative and ingenious. But secondly, we're extraordinarily cooperative. What is the internet all about? It's about trading stuff, trading images, trading thoughts, trading ideas. We are probably the most cooperative animal on the planet and we tend to forget that sometimes because, particularly in America and particularly in this era in America, we've come across this very sad notion. You know you gotta be tough. You know you gotta close the borders, you gotta be strong, you gotta crush this guy, you gotta win, win, win. That's not who human animals are. You know human animals throughout history have coexisted and have shared and cooperated. And if you look at most ancestral cultures, they were not about accumulation and acquisition and conquering. They were about coexistence, cooperation and learning from each other.“

Age-Proofing Your Brain: Insights from Dr. Marc Milstein Nov 08, 2023

What are the actions we can take to maintain our long-term brain health? This week, we discuss this and more with Dr. Marc Milstein, author of The Age-Proof Brain. It turns out that even small behavioral changes, such as eating less processed foods and regularly challenging yourself with activities like playing an instrument will support overall brain fitness and neuroplasticity. Furthermore, Dr. Marc also breaks down the surprising link between gut and brain health.

“Anything that is processed is likely to feed bad bacteria. These bacteria have been around much longer than us, and so the things that they like to eat are the things that were around much longer than us, long before we got here, and the bad bacteria tend to feed on the things that we created.”
“There's definitely foods that are great for brain health, but it's really about variety and we really have evidence that it's a synergistic relationship. It's not one food item that is just like this brain-boosting magic food. It's how the foods work together and that's why we believe that supplements can be beneficial, but they're not in many cases as beneficial as dietary changes, because what's in the food works together with other nutrients.”
“So what we see is that it's not about this stress-free lifestyle. Our brain is like a car, I like to say, and if you don't drive it, it falls apart, and if you over drive it, it falls apart. Stress is a burst of cortisol. Say I want to get something done. There's a challenge, I want to tackle something. All those moments of stress are actually good for our brain because they release cortisol and there's a part of our brain called the hippocampus which is really important for memory, and a squirt of cortisol in a moment of stress actually helps the hippocampus stay strong.”

“My whole background is walking this fine line between the traditional medical system and the wellness industry. I was a personal trainer for a long time and that was my first foray into health and wellness before becoming a doctor. Now I help bridge the gap between these two sides. I think we have to be humble, the more I learn, the less I know about this stuff. Human health and our biology is very complicated, and yet there’s unfortunately still this imperative to like, make claims and to be bold in order to get people's attention.”

“This stuff is nuanced and we hope that people who really take their health seriously also have the responsibility of helping to advance the data and dig into the science.”

“How do you push the body into stress right in a way that's adaptive for the body? And that's what cold therapy does, it's what heat therapy does. This is sort of “perturbing” our homeostasis so that the body becomes more adaptive over time, and is able to better regulate itself.”

“Entropy is working on us all the time and so you have to push back against that and that's uncomfortable. That means welcoming and inviting discomfort into your life and to your day and that, to your point, is sort of against everything that we're sold right now and what we're taught to believe is best.”

“The knee is very smart. It does two things when it's mad, it makes fluid, or it hurts, or both. In fact, all of your joints are always making a little bit of fluid. When there’s a lot of fluid in the knee, something's typically wrong. That's a tip, if my knees are very swollen, something is off.”

“I could take a plug, a round plug of cartilage from someplace else in your knee that you need less and move it to a place where you need it more, just like a hair transplant."

The older materials wore much faster. If you don't have a super active lifestyle, you're not a marathon runner and you put it in, it could be good for 20 or 25 years.”

Surgery Recovery Techniques: What Worked For Me At Age 64 with David Stewart Oct 17, 2023

This week, David breaks down the ins and outs of his recent knee surgery–from dealing with insurance, to what to ask your surgeon, to the best strategies for choosing a physical therapist. Today, at 7 weeks post-op, he has almost fully returned to physical activity with the help of intensive physical therapy, regular hyperbaric oxygen therapy sessions, a clean diet, and more. Listen in to hear about how recovery modalities align with protein intake, catabolic vs metabolic states, Katsu therapy, vitamin D, along with additional top-level insights.

Key Moments
“He said first order of business, we want to reduce your time in the catabolic state as much as we can, and try to keep you anabolic if possible. How do we do that? Clean diet.”
“He says to me this is perceived instability. So your brain thinks the knee is unstable because you have this irritation in your meniscus. But your knee is stable.”
“So they reduce the recovery time by 50%. I am not an elite athlete. However, this “cutting down recovery time” sounded really good and so I had maybe an hour-long conversation with Scott about what to do.”

Key Moments
“A little bit of pain is proper. What happens, though, is pain can change from being something like a stimulus response, meaning that you burn your finger and you experience pain. It can turn into something that's not just pain experienced by a burning finger and the brain, sometimes brain actually creates the experience of pain.”

“What we see in chronic pain is that the default mode network is talking way too much to another network called the salience network, which is a network that says, hey, pay attention, this is really something big, watch out. And so these two networks are over connected. And so what we look for sometimes in interventions is does the treatment actually start disentangling these two networks?”

“So when we define pain, pain is a sensory, it's an emotional and it's a cognitive, for it's a thought derived process. Pain exists because there is this awareness of it. So when people are anesthetized, you don't feel pain.”

“This is not an IQ test, this is a cognitive function test and everybody should want to understand how their brain is functioning and if there are issues that you could then fix–and that may be. As you point out, it may be that someone is on too many medications that are conflicting with each other. It may also be that they are eating fried food seven days a week, are not sleeping, and never exercise.”

“You know, historically we haven't had good drugs for, or even good supplements, from a treatment perspective, for cognitive issues. I think that is also starting to change, at least on the lifestyle side. We know that there's a tremendous number of things that you can do to help your brain function.”

New Research: Smell Can Improve Brain Function with Fabrice Croisé and Dr. Michael Leon Sep 27, 2023

Today we have Phd professor and researcher Michael Leon on the show alongside perfume entrepreneur and founder of Scents of Wood, Fabrice Croisé. In July, Prof Leon published a study which identified a link between olfactory stimulation and memory improvement. Participants in the enriched group’s memories improved by 226%. Michael also discusses how regular exposure to varied scents (think 40 per day) can actually combat the effects of dementia. Join us to learn about this fascinating connection and what you can do to take advantage of this new knowledge.

Key Moments

“We gave humans different odors on a regular basis, and over the course of six months, they too had a massive improvement in their memory 226% better than a similar group of older adults who didn't get this kind of olfactory enrichment”

“When you look at sommeliers and perfumers, the memory parts of their brains have expanded significantly. So it's not just that they're experiencing a nice odor, it's that it's actually changing the memory centers of their brain.”

“I'm fascinated. I mean I've never, of the many, many, many things that I've heard about about smelling and fragrances and scent over the past 30 years of my career, I've never heard this and it's obviously not the angle that we usually take when we create a fragrance, but it is incredibly fascinating.”

Lasers, Microneedles, and Age Specific Skincare with Dr. Kelly Stankiewicz Sep 19, 2023

We are back this week with Dr. Kelly Stankiewicz, our favorite Dermatologist. Dr. Kelly is at the forefront of her field, specializing in laser skin treatments that combat the effects of aging and can even create a youthful glow–if that is your jam. In addition to discussing the latest and greatest in dermatology, we also break down the four core pillars of a sound skincare routine: cleanse, exfoliate, nourish, and protect. Lastly, I ask Dr. Kelly to give us some context around Jimmy Buffett’s tragic passing in terms of the skin cancer that he battled and what we can all do to protect ourselves.

Key Moments:
“What's important is that you're hitting all four of the categories: sunscreens, antioxidants, exfoliants, and cleansers.”

“So people, when they hear that someone has died of skin cancer they get very concerned because skin cancer is quite common. The type that Jimmy Buffett had is very, very rare. So all of my patients who've had multiple basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas, which don't typically metastasize, are, you know, kind of up in arms because they don't really understand the difference.”

“When you're doing fractional resurfacing, you're decreasing your risk for skin cancer probably (or at least according to this one study) by about two times or maybe a little bit more.”

Supplements, Nutrients, and Psychedelics For Sleep, Focus, and Connection with Dr. Scott Sherr Sep 12, 2023

Dr. Scott Sherr has been a frequent guest and audience favorite with his information-dense guest appearances on The SuperAge Show. This week we speak about new information on some of the brain chemical influences on depression, sleep, and anxiety- specifically the overlooked neurotransmitter GABA. We review the symptoms of GABA dysregulation and the methods for correcting it. Dr Sherr is a clinician, meaning he sees patients and comes at the issues from a more nuanced point of view than pure researchers sometimes do. In the middle of the episode, Dr Scott brings up a surprisingly simple zero risk trick to increase sleep effectiveness. Toward the end of the conversation, David asks about how to increase concentration and focus, and we get into the practical usage of nicotine, methyl blue, and low-dose psychedelics.

Key Moments

“So when I do analysis with patients, I'm usually looking at a gamut of labs and what I found over the last several years is that GABA is a big problem, and it's not GABA itself that you're typically looking at, but you're actually looking at some of the amino acids and some of the cofactors that are typically deficient in these kinds of patients that are having symptoms like that are very much correlated with GABA deficiency, and some of those are symptoms that all of us have gone through in our life. From a mental health perspective, we know GABA deficiency is associated with anxiety, with fear, with depression, with short temper, with phobias, with impulsiveness, with disorganization, and addiction.”

“The problem with GABA as a supplement is that it's a very big molecule and it doesn't cross the blood brain barrier very easily at all. There are only a couple of different ways to get GABA through. One of them is using something called nicotinoyl GABA or vitamin B3 attached to a GABA”

“Cava is a GABA agonist so it helps increase the amount of GABA that binds. It doesn't bind to that GABA site itself, it binds to a separate site a little further away, but it helps with increasing the amount of GABA that's going to bind and you're going to have that feeling of feeling like you've had a couple beers, kind of thing. But the nice thing about cava is it doesn't bind with the same affinity and it also binds to other receptors that help increase wakefulness.”

“The first part of this conversation is that nicotine is a fantastic cognitive enhancer. It's very short acting. It's about one to two hours and if you don't smoke it or vape it, keep it very low, and dose less than four milligrams a day. The chance of addiction is minutely small, minuscule. So it's very, very powerful and very quick, and so for people that are looking to feel more of a cognitive edge. They can actually just have some nicotine on its own and it will do that.“

“The best drug you can have is exercise, and so I try to stay fit with both aerobic and strength resistance training because I think both are important. You know, as you get older, one of the major causes of death is falling, certainly over the age of 65.”

“When it comes to healthspan and longevity, we're probably never going to have great randomized placebo-controlled studies because simply nobody's going to pay for that and it would take way too long to start people at 50 and then follow them for 40 or 50 years to see who lives longer; that would be hard.”

“I started statin when I was 35, I'm 49 now, just because I had a strong family history of heart disease and that was most likely going to be the thing that would kill me later in life.”

“I take statins because there are hundreds of different randomized placebo-controlled, well done studies that show a direct correlation: the lower you get your LDL, the less likely you are to have a cardiac event. You know, what we call MACE, or a major adverse cardiac event. So the lower you go the better.”

The Power of Resilience: Overcoming Adversity with Dr. Sharon Bannister Aug 27, 2023

What if the key to navigating life's unanticipated storms lies not just in physical strength, but in the resilience of the mind? Dr. Sharon Bannister is a retired Air Force Major General who's spent her career harnessing the power of resilience. Drawing parallels between military and civilian life, our conversation delves into the necessity of adaptability, mental strength, and the art of preparing for the worst-case scenario.
Dr. Bannister encourages us to step out of our comfort zones, embrace new experiences, and always be ready to lend a helping hand. She reminds us that every action, no matter how small, is vital in cultivating a sense of community and resilience. This conversation is not just about survival, but about how we can better build community, navigate big life transitions, and thrive in the face of adversity.

“So what are those things that you're doing for yourself that make you more resilient when bad things happen?”

“To me, one of the interesting aspects about the military is this idea of adaptability. We can sort of control how we think and how we prepare, but we need to be adaptable to circumstances. In that line of work you never know what's going to happen, right?”

“I think that it would be easy to sit in your house and worry, and worry, and worry. I think that it's a lot more productive to get out and go do something a little bit different to keep you moving.”

Reframing Money, Work, and Retirement with Michael Finke Aug 22, 2023

There is a science to retirement, and if we do it with purpose it can turn out very well. Ever wonder how to make the most of your money, work, and time as you age? There is data out there about this and we will dive into it. Today we talk with professor Michael Finke about finding the happy medium between these three, the meaning of money and the impact of work. Michael Finke, Ph.D. is a Professor of wealth management and Frank M. Engle Distinguished Chair in Economic Security at The American College of Financial Services and an expert on all things related money, retirement satisfaction and the psychology of retirement.

Knowing that various 'asset classes' like relationships, health, and intellectual curiosity can provide both immediate and long-term rewards, we explore opportunities to balance finances while still pursuing these other joy-forward assets. We also talk about the struggle of transitioning from a saving to a spending mindset in retirement - and where people often go wrong-which involves the limbic system of the brain and how it conflicts with our pre-frontal cortex.

“It's the spending of the money on the right kind of things that make you happy.”

“And in retirement, money facilitates. It's an avenue towards activities that actually do make you happy.”

“People feel differently about spending money from savings than they do spending money from income… Well, people spend more when they have $35,000 of income versus having $500,000 in savings. That's an example of how using your money the right way can actually help you get more satisfaction.”

Decoding the Complexities of Plastic Surgery: Dr. Carolyn Chang Aug 15, 2023

Today, we have an informative chat with the celebrated plastic surgeon Dr. Carolyn Chang, from San Francisco, who shares her insights and thoughts about the societal consequences, moral implications, and realities of aesthetic improvement. We know this can be a hot-button topic for our AGEIST community, so not only do we discuss the pros and cons of aesthetic procedures, but we also get Dr. Chang's inside opinion on operations, and hear why some of her clients make this choice. From the risks associated with Cool Sculpting to the effectiveness of tummy tucks for people over 70 to the psychological and emotional aspects of plastic surgery, highlighting that it is more than just a vanity-driven choice.

“So many more people get orthodontia as children, they don't really think about it quite the same way; but it is the same. You can see how good [Invisalign] made you feel. That's what's going on with plastic surgery.”

“Patients that I have are normal people. They're your neighbors, they're your brothers, they're your sisters, and they really just wanna fix something that bugs them.”

Breaking the Habit of Perfection: Navigating Midlife with Tamsen Fadal Aug 09, 2023

What if the key to a healthier, more satisfying midlife isn't about adhering to perfection, but rather learning to create, navigate and break habits? This serves as the foundation of today's conversation with Tamsen Fadal. Tamsen is, among many things, a TV journalist, author, women’s health advocate, and good friend of the AGEIST team.
First, we jump into the process of identifying behavioral patterns and turning a critical eye on ourselves without judgment. We discuss how to replace less healthy habits and celebrate our successes, no matter the size. Tamsen and I touch on the role of social media and the damaging effects that unrealistic expectations can often have on our self-perception.
To conclude, we address the critical phase of menopause and the need for self-advocacy during this time. We share thoughts on finding the right medical support and establishing sustainable, healthier habits for a more fulfilling life.

“If I find myself doing something I’m not proud of, I tell myself: that's not who I am. I'm doing this thing, but it's not who I am.”

“With modern social media we've never been so overexposed to everybody else's life and everyone else's everything, so I think that puts a lot more pressure on us, right?”

“There’s an interesting interplay between habit and accomplishment in the long term and the short term. I often overestimate what can happen in the short term and I really underestimate what can happen in the long term. It is always fantastic to look back a few months or even years and see how far things have come.”

60 is My Power Decade: Julia Linn on Aging and Wellness Jul 19, 2023

Is it ever too late to meet your personal health goals? It took positivity and determination for athlete and women’s empowerment coach Julia Linn, otherwise known as @dolphinine to overcome diabetes, a double organ transplant, and cardiac bypass surgery. In fact, since she embarked on her fitness journey at age 62, she has found great power and joy in taking full authorship over her health. This week, we peel back the layers of wellness, and dive deep into mindset.

My conversation with Julia explores her experiences with the toxic cultures of diet exercise sectors, the peril of fast fixes, and the value of steady, measured progress, and self-care. We hear personal stories on how menopause led her to experiment with varied foods and eventually find the balance that works best for her body. This further demonstrates the importance of self-responsibility in health and nutrition choices.

Join us as we navigate personal growth, health journeys, and fitness–drawing inspiration from others to lead healthier, happier, and longer lives! And for those wondering, the answer is "no it is never too late to meet your health goals!"

Be sure to check out Julia’s new book: My Power Decade: A Story of Mindset, Weight Loss, Muscle Gain, and Reclaiming Health After Age Sixty

Key Moments
"So I'm 63. I'm on a stage in a bikini, and I actually won, and it just sort of started this whole experience for me of knowing what my body could do. And, more importantly, let women know who are 50 plus, struggling with menopause, struggling with self-esteem, struggling with their body issues., to see me: a double organ transplant, triple cardiac bypass, no thyroid, to see me like strong and muscular at 66, 65. They suddenly think: she gives me hope, she can do it. I can do it To me, that is the biggest gift I can give out of all my experiences to let other women know this is possible. Don't limit yourself. "
"Low calorie, high cardio is not sustainable, and I feel like that industry has said okay, here's another quick fix. How about a shot? How about you take a shot and it makes you so sick that you don't want to eat food and you lose weight? How about that? First of all, it doesn't deal with mindset issues, which are vital."
"Be patient, go slow, listen to your body. Everybody's different. If you want to do keto, do keto. If you want to do macros, do macros. If you want to do portion control, do that. Everybody's different, but it has to be a common sense approach. Day in and day out, positive, repetitive action that shows you honor your body, you love your body. It can't come out of 'I hate my body, I'm disgusted.'"

Rethinking Fitness: The Overlooked Significance of Stability and Balance Jul 11, 2023

Rethinking Fitness: The Overlooked Significance of Stability and Balance
Staying useful for as long as we can, brain training our central nervous system to improve our balance, demystifying PT, the difference between stability and balance, and more. In today's show, I'm here to share my personal experiences surrounding stability and balance - two aspects that are often overlooked. This episode is all about the journey; from me hopping on one foot to enhance balance, to exploring physical therapy and sports for more robust body stability, to learning how this fosters longer, better, and healthier lives for all of us. It's about harnessing the power of movement and control.

As we age, the risk of injuries from falls increases alarmingly, making stability and balance crucial for our overall health. This episode sheds light on these important elements of fitness and emphasizes how their role goes beyond the traditional gym routine.

Quotes
“If we feel confident in our bodies, if we feel certain that we are stable, doing whatever we're doing, we're going to be able to be more useful.”

“Doing things like playing tennis, playing pickleball, all of these things require an element of stability, and one of the things to keep in mind is that a lot of our physical faculties are going to decay pretty much no matter what we do. So we need to keep them at the peak level for as long as we can.”

“Then we have balance, and balance is a critical part of stability, but it's not the same thing as stability.”

Synopsis:
Ever wondered why your sleep quality fluctuates or why you're wide awake when others are deep in their dreams? Not all questions about sleep are as simple as: "night owl or early bird?" In this empowering episode, we sat down with Dr. Michael Breus, the Sleep Doctor himself, to shed light on the complex world of sleep. We explored how our sleep is affected by continuous sunlight, the role of glucose monitors, and much more.
Diving deeper. Dr. Breus explains how our core body temperature and melatonin intertwine and offers valuable advice on how to optimize your environment for better sleep. We explored the fascinating realm of sleep chronotypes, debunking the misconceptions and revealing what it means to be a bear, wolf, or dolphin sleeper. We also discussed how to stay cool at night without becoming dependent on AC.
Finally, we turned our attention to the serious topic of sleep apnea and unraveled its prevalence, risk factors and treatment options including CPAP, Inspire, and Excite. We wrapped up the conversation discussing how physical activity, from pickleball to swimming, can improve your overall health, sleep, and longevity. Join us to better understand and improve your sleep.
Key Moments
“Memory Foam sleeps hot.”
“You don’t have to run a marathon, but you do have to get off of the couch.”
“With patients who had mild symptoms of age-related memory loss, once we got their apnea fixed, what we thought was dementia and Alzheimer's literally disappeared because they were breathing and getting into these deeper stages of sleep.”

“Everything you do has a purpose and a reason and if it doesn’t relate back to what you are really trying to accomplish, it’s noise and therefore you exit out of it.”

“As an athlete, you’re willing to sacrifice a lot to be great and you make decisions that are not good for you in the long term to be great at something.”

“Being an offensive lineman is not good for cognitive health… but for that period of time, it’s what I chose to do.”

Improving Circulation, Hormonal Function, and Metabolic Responses: Steven Munatones Jun 21, 2023

Steven Munatones is the co-founder and CEO of Kaatsu. Steven has started several companies and with his company, Kaatsu, he is currently enabling people from wounded warriors and paraplegics to Olympic and professional athletes to rehabilitate more quickly, effectively and conveniently, and to enable older, sedentary individuals improve their blood circulation and muscle tone.

“We use these bands as a catalyst to create an engorgement of blood in the limbs and that is the kickstarter to a variety of hormonal and metabolic responses in the body.”

“Our oldest user is 104 years old, we have another user who is 95. They just want to continue a quality of life, they want to be able to open up a jar, they want to be able to wash their hair easily, and they want to sweep around their house. Just to handle these things they need to maintain their muscle mass.”

“With older people, it’s also a very critical thing that we are standing, sitting, standing, sitting, standing, sitting to teach them that when you might trip, the last thing we want is for them to fall and break a bone. If they can catch themselves, maybe they don’t break their bone. Maybe they catch themselves and they’re able to not have to go to the ER.”

Omega-3s for Your Brain and the Planet: Isaac Berzin, PhD Jun 14, 2023

The company's production facility is located in Iceland, integrated with one of the world's largest geothermal power production facilities.

Isaac joins us to discuss everything we need to know about algae, the issues with fish oil, sustainability, and what is next for his company, Vaxa.

“If you look at the composition of fish oil today, it’s not a clean source.”

“You can consume ⅓ of algae omega-3s, compared to fish oil, and still get the same benefit.”

“The human body reacts to your diet; it’s not going to produce the same model enzymes if you have this kind of meal or that kind of meal.”

“I don’t believe that if you’re doing the right thing, you have to suffer.”

“Do you know any plant that has 70% protein? Even meat I don’t think has 70% protein. So, algae is a super, superfood.”

A Preventative Approach to Aging: Dr. Jennifer Wagner Jun 07, 2023

Dr. Jennifer Wagner is trained as a pediatric anesthesiologist and spent most of her career at Stanford. Then, 2 years ago, she made the decision to shift and leave clinical practice and move to the mountains with her family, and became the Chief Medical Officer at Liminal Collective.

Dr. Wagner discusses how she is taking a 40-year preventative approach to her aging, the poor quality of life of a doctor, why she stepped back from that lifestyle, Liminal Collective, how she is teaching women to optimize their lives through her new project “Prosper,” performance, and more.

“I used to drive home from Stanford and sit in my garage and cry before I went in to take care of my two kids under 4. I was so stressed from work and then walk in and have to be a mom in a split second after working a 12-hour day.”

“The pandemic really took a toll on women, having to balance careers and kids at home, so there was a huge exit of women out of the workplace that still hasn’t recovered.”

“Is everything optimal? Is waiting until I have a significant risk factor, is that really the right time to start prevention? To me, I said no.”

“I am super fortunate my parents are still alive but I’ve watched them age and I would prefer to age differently. They’re doing okay but they’re not the way I want to be at 78. That really sparked looking into how I can optimize myself now so that every ten years my risk factors stay zero.”

“Keeping people out of the hospital, keeping people healthy, and keeping people off medication is not financially lucrative for a lot of industries which is unfortunate but it’s the bottom line.”

“We get so busy. You can spend your entire day from the moment you wake up to the moment you go to bed trying to live a longer life but there also can just be moments of joy, slowing down, looking up. We get in such a hurry all the time but smiling, saying hello to someone on a trail, and appreciating what’s around us has significant health benefits.”

Dr. Kien Vuu, concierge performance and longevity physician specializing in human optimization and regenerative medicine, media expert, and author, joins us on the SuperAge podcast to discuss the default mode network, how to live well beyond the science of longevity, finding your purpose, and more.

“It’s so important to be aware of the things that trigger us because it might be coming from our past. If we’re not aware of that program that’s running below the surface, we’re going to be making choices from the unconscious conditioned autopilot mode of the brain.”

“The energy of love, of healing, of laughter can spread across a community just as fast as fear, resentment, hate, so energy can ripple across.”

“How we treat each other, how we treat strangers, that is actually medicine as well and just as powerful.”

“How we choose to show up in every single moment of our life is medicine. That’s the art of living.”

“We come into this world with this authentic love vibration of just who we are as kids, that’s who we are authentically, so the things that naturally bring joy to us, the things that light us up, the things that make us feel good, those things are programmed in our DNA. Purpose is really just us to exist as us.”

The Religious Take On Longevity: Clayton Crawley May 25, 2023

Should we feel guilty about enjoying life when there is suffering in the world? How does prayer work? How can we be useful to others? Should we enjoy abundance? What is the importance of relationships for our health? How much self-care is appropriate?

Clayton Crawley, Episcopal priest and EVP, Chief Church Relations Officer at The Church Pension Group joins us to discuss his religious beliefs, how to enjoy life while understanding suffering, how to be useful, longevity, and more.

“Part of being a joyful person is to understand that being selfish is actually a path to misery. You can enjoy the best things in life but it’s when you take that enjoyment and hold it tightly, you are committing what in Christianity we would call a sin. You’re being selfish.”

“If you give your life away, you will actually save it.”

“You can be selfish and have all the money and all the health that you need but you will die because that’s not what it’s about. It is about giving to others, being generous, being joyful. The people that are the most joyful, in my experience, are those who have the most connections.”

“What keeps your brain healthy and what makes you happy long-term is having relationships with other people.”

“I believe that we are called to live well as long as we live.”

“It’s really a gift to be in relationship with other people.”

Kara Collier is the co-founder and VP of Health at Nutrisense, one of America’s fastest-growing wellness-tech startups, where she leads the health team. Kara is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN), Licensed Dietitian/Nutritionist (LDN), and Certified Nutrition Support Clinician (CNSC) specializing in glucose control and metabolism.

Kara joins us to discuss metabolic health, glucose as we age, how stress impacts our glucose spikes, the importance of protein, and more.

“Typically what you see in the ICUs actually are complications from lifestyle-related chronic conditions. Something like needing an urgent leg amputation because of uncontrolled diabetes or needing to be put on dialysis because of uncontrolled cardiovascular disease. These were the types of instances I was seeing over and over and that experience led to some frustrations wishing I could help people sooner so they never had to end up there in the first place.”

“Just like a car has an engine that interacts with many different components of the car to run it, we have a similar cellular engine and that would be considered metabolic health as a whole.”

“It’s not that we never have our glucose move, it’s just that we want to keep it in these healthy ranges and we don’t want to overload those places where glucose can go.”

“If somebody is relatively healthy, their metabolic health looks good overall but their fasted glucose level is always high, typically the #1 thing that’s happening is chronic stress.”

“With nutrition specifically, the framework we try to teach people is: master the basics, understand the fundamentals that everyone should be doing and then be malleable and empirical. Be willing to be flexible in your approach based off of your own personalized data because we all are unique.”

“About the worst thing that you could do for your glucose levels is a liquid form of sugar.”

Don’t Outlive Your Money: Kate Beattie May 10, 2023

What happens if you outlive your money? What do we need to know about investments? How can we have peace of mind about our finances? What does retirement look like in the future? What is an annuity?

Kate Beattie is a senior retirement income strategist with American Funds and she empowers individuals to understand their finances. She discusses what an annuity is, how to find peace of mind around your finances, how to not outlive your money, and more.

“Think of those folks who are approaching retirement and they’ve got that family history of longevity, they’re in excellent health, they’re likely to experience that above average longevity or life expectancy. If they haven’t saved enough to achieve their retirement spending goal but they’re looking to maximize their income, however long that may be, those are excellent candidates for an annuity.”

“The connection between peace of mind and secure income or that protected lifetime income was so strong across all investors.”

“Our dreams of retiring at 65 might now be 80, in order to make your funds last until 120.”

“Write down a list of everybody that you talk to on a weekly basis, now go through and cross out every one of those that are people you work with. Our list gets really small. What is our purpose in that next phase?”

Matt Yousefzadeh, PhD is an instructor and researcher at Columbia University and specializes in aging, cancer, DNA repair, immunology, senescence, and more. He joins us to discuss inflammaging, senescence, the impact of rapamycin on vaccine efficacy, the #1 thing we should avoid to protect our DNA, and more.

“We’re losing our ability to respond to new challenges as we progress through time.”

“When they gave the elderly a version of rapamycin and then gave them an annual influenza vaccination, they made 20% more antibodies against influenza, and the immune cells or T cells showed reduced markers of exhaustion.”

“If you take old mice, the equivalent of an elderly individual, and then put them on fisetin, just supplemented in the chow, it made them live a little bit longer but it also reduced their senescent cell burden and many markers of pathology in their tissues, or improved some of their physiological function.”

“As our bodies age, all our tissues are aging at different times and different rates.”

“By and large, the things that we can affect in our everyday life are things like diet and exercise. We also know, too, that chronic stress has been shown to shorten life, social stress has been shown to shorten the lifespan of mice. We even see that social stress can have an impact on our immune function.”

“Stress is everywhere and it will always be there. The question is how do we look at it from the perspective of growth rather than suffering, and if we can look at it from the perspective of growth then we can actually change the outcome of the situation.”

“Touch is free; we can apply it to ourselves, we can apply it to each other. It doesn’t require a lot of skill. It does require a positive intention that is a sharing of kindness, affection, human interaction.”

“Holding hands, getting a hug, these kinds of sensations are potently activating the parasympathetic nervous system so they dramatically calm the body. And they can do it within seconds without effort by the person receiving the hug or receiving the hand hold.”

“We think about stress as sometimes being positive, helping us grow; and sometimes being negative, and hurting our performance and our recovery.

“This is really the first of the gen-3 wearables that are wearables that actually change the body. And it’s the first one to use sound in a scientifically validated way to change the body, change the way we feel, and improve our ability to sleep and focus and recover from stress.”

My Quest for the Optimized Human Body: Bryan Johnson Apr 20, 2023

What are the self destructive behaviors that have become normalized in society? What are the simple health things that everyone should implement in their life? What are some of the skincare protocols that Bryan incorporates?

Bryan Johnson is the world's most measured human. Johnson sold his company, Braintree Venmo, to PayPal for $800m in 2013. Since then, he's been investing millions to slow and reverse his aging. In 2021, he set a World Record by reducing his epigenetic age by 5.1 years in 7 months. His program Project Blueprint is an endeavor to help people take better care of themselves.

Bryan Johnson discusses how he went from physically unwell to where he is today, aging slower than a 10 year old, his current protocol and Project Blueprint, our normalized destructive behaviors, how he “fired” himself for the sake of his health, his skin health routine, the future of technology, and more.

“Wouldn’t it be possible for you and I to have an imagination of ourselves if we said ‘Okay, David, what are you and I in 20 years?’ What if we could assume better instead of inevitable decay? How would that change the way we approach life, work with each other, deal with each other, what effect would it have on humanity?”

“Could I build an algorithm that would take better care of me than I could myself and could we attach ourselves to the progress curves of technology and science so that you and I can say ‘What do you and I look like in 20 years? We don’t know, but better.’”

“It’s reasonable to think that the things we’re doing like prioritizing sleep, eating vegetables, limiting caloric intake, are things that other humans will do well with.”

“How many times in the past week have we eaten too much food, the wrong kind of food, have we not prioritized seep, have we drank too much, smoked, or whatever your vices are, just in the past week. Do an accounting of that and say, what is my load of self destructive behaviors? That to me is the most significant opportunity for improvement.”

“I just want an algorithm to take care of my health and wellness, I know my own mind, if I give my own mind the smallest opportunity to make a decision, it’s going to make the wrong decision every single time. I just cannot trust myself, I know this.”

“Talent is the ability to hit the target no one else can. Genius is the ability to hit the target no one else can see.”

“The difference between hope and despair is a good night’s sleep. When I have a good night’s sleep, everything feels possible. When I have a discouraging night’s sleep, everything feels challenging.”

Kevin and Dr. Nocera join us to discuss how exercise positively affects our physical and cognitive health, how Vivo is treating the brain like any other muscle in the body, what dual tasking is, and more.

“Walking is almost automatic until we start to age and then it becomes a little more of a challenge and it becomes a little more variable; and if it’s a little more variable it introduces fall risk.”

“We know that we can improve the physical functioning profile of pretty much anybody whether they’re in a disease state or they're aging healthily but we can also really impact brain health with exercise.”

“Older adults think of loss of function as a normal part of this process and it really isn’t, it shouldn't be… If we think about loss of function as a normal part of the process, we’re kind of giving up. And what I want to do is show people that we can get back a lot of what we lost.”

“We have no way to predict who’s going to fall. Our number one predictor of falls is a previous fall and that doesn’t do anyone any good.”

“We don’t wake up one day and we’re obese. We slowly but surely throughout the lifespan, through environmental factors, lifestyle factors, genetic factors, etc. can gain weight.”

“The average woman over the age of 45, 45% of us are obese; not overweight.”

“When you can personalize the care that you’re offering and giving those specific, actionable routes, I do think that it creates this opportunity to carry that forward on their own terms.”

“Maybe the Groupon versions of semaglutide are promoting shot only but I would imagine that even they are not. This is a component of a person’s life. It is not the only thing that we hope that they are doing to pursue their own health.”

“This is not a disease; this is a state of being alive. So you have options in terms of how you want to live and age well, whatever that means to you.”

“Science is not a religion. It is not a monolith, it is not unchanging and unmoving. That is not what science is. Science is a process of inquiry. Period. End of sentence.”

“There’s actually quite a bit of data on the potential health benefits of estrogen specifically in all of us and in breast cancer survivors.”

“The vast majority of us who are diagnosed with breast cancer are going to be diagnosed at early stages. The vast majority of those of us diagnosed with breast cancer are going to die of: breast cancer or heart disease? Heart disease!”

“The number one tool for healthy aging is lifestyle. That’s always the best. Exercise, movement, getting the blood flowing, staying flexible, mindset – it’s really not rocket science.”

“One of the great things as we age, if we have community, we have support, we have tools, is we start to settle more into who we are and start to appreciate that.”

“I think that age – in the future, the issue will be: How can I live healthily into the future? But also, we haven’t answered some of the questions like: Are you going to still stay married to the same person for 130 years? Unlikely, I think. Are you going to still have the same occupation? Will you have your dream occupation? Will you run out of money?”

“Entertainment is going to be very, very important. I know it’s adorable that we go to a movie theater but we can probably watch something that’s on a lens in our eye. We’re going to be able to go to the Metaverse with a lens that’s in our eye.”

“There may be time travel before we have a flying car. We may be able to move our molecules through space before we have a flying car. It’s much more efficient.”

“If somebody else can do it as well as you can do it, let them do it… And then you can either make it a little better, make it a little different, or do something else that they can’t do.”

The Economic Implications of a Much Longer Life: Andrew Scott Mar 15, 2023

What are the economic implications of living longer? Why do we need to change the way we are aging? How long will we need to work because of our increased life expectancy? What will retirement look like in the future? What assets should we be investing in?

Andrew J. Scott is a Professor of Economics at London Business School having previously held positions at Oxford University, London School of Economics and Harvard University. His work focuses on the economics of longevity and he is the co-author of The 100-Year Life and The New Long Life.

Andrew joins us to discuss the economic implications of living longer, how we need to change the way we are aging, what retirement will look like in the future, the assets that we should be investing in, and more.

“What we need to do is to change how we age. We need to age better. Rather than focusing on, ‘Oh, there are more old people,’ I think we need to focus on, actually, given the phenomenal increase in life expectancy that has happened, we need to change how we age.”

“We haven’t really expected to reach into those older ages in the past. Of course, there have always been old people but it’s been a minority living to 80 or 90. But if you look at the data today in most rich countries, it’s the majority who will be living to 80 or 90. So, we need to age better and behave differently.”

“You’ve got more time ahead of you. Whether you’re 20, 50, or 80, you have more time ahead of you than past 20-year-olds, 50-year-olds, or 80-year-olds. So you have to invest more into your future. You just have a greater incentive to do it.”

“The challenge you’ve got with a longer life is how to finance it.”

Dr. Sanjeev Goel, physician and founder of Peak Human, is passionate about taking a holistic approach to wellness through Integrative and Regenerative Medicine. He advocates a healthy lifestyle centered around plant-based diet, focused physical activity, and enhancing mental resilience. Dr. Goel joins us to discuss therapeutic plasma exchange, regenerative medicine, longevity, and more.

“There’s something about young blood that potentially causes rejuvenation or there’s something about the removal of old blood that actually causes rejuvenation.”

“We know that Alzheimer’s is really caused by inflammation and lack of ability to detoxify the brain… so that’s causing more and more inflammation.”

“In animals, we have pretty good science that this is causing less neuroinflammation, in muscles it looks like there’s going to be more stem cells, more regeneration in the liver.”

“Inflammation seems to be a key driver of aging.”

“If you change the base at which these cells are living in and bring it back down to a more youthful stage, then those cells behave like they’re younger.”

Age and Circadian Rhythm: Satchin Panda, PhD Mar 01, 2023

What is our circadian rhythm and how does it impact our health? What time should we eat, exercise, and sleep? How does caffeine impact our circadian rhythm? What time of day does the brain work best?

Dr. Satchin Panda is a professor at The Salk Institute and author of the book The Circadian Code: Lose Weight, Supercharge Your Energy, and Transform Your Health from Morning to Midnight. He joins us to discuss circadian rhythm, what time we should eat, exercise, work, and sleep, how age impacts circadian rhythms, and more.

“Circadian rhythm is essentially the master plan that is already written into our DNA in every cell and if we follow this timetable then we can live a few years longer.”

“We are designed to eat more carbohydrates in the first half of the day, not in the second half of our day or late into the night.”

“Our bodies are programmed with this timetable and we just have to follow it.”

“For people who are trying to control their blood pressure, who are trying to control their blood sugar with exercise, afternoon exercise tends to be more effective in reducing blood pressure and also controlling blood glucose much better than the identical exercise done in the morning.”

“Caffeine has a huge impact on sleep.”

“As we age, our circadian rhythm dampens; so that means our body actually doesn’t have the right timing cue for when to do what.”

“Try to go to bed at a habitual, fixed time and then stay in bed for at least 8 hours because when you stay in bed for 8 hours then you get at least 7 hours of restorative sleep.”

Muscular Skeletal Longevity: Dr. Vonda Wright Feb 22, 2023

How do hormones impact the muscular-skeletal system? How can we treat hormone imbalance for both men and women? Why do women need to lift heavy weights? What do we need to know about glucose? What order should we eat our foods in to prevent glucose spikes? Why might HIIT not be good to do daily? What does it mean to be a peak performer?

Dr. Vonda Wright, double board-certified orthopedic sports medicine surgeon specializing in shoulder, hip, and knee arthroscopy for athletes and active people of all ages, joins us to discuss the importance of mobility, why women and men must lift heavy weights for optimal health, how to be a peak performer, and more.

“My life’s work has been really dispelling the myth that aging is an inevitable decline from the vitality of youth down some slippery slope to frailty and dispelling the myth that there’s nothing we can do about it.”

“Why do I get up and go to work? It’s because I know that by saving mobility, whether I save your knee, whether I make your shoulder not hurt, any of the things we do, by saving your mobility I’m actually saving you from the ravages of chronic disease.”

“What people don’t realize, because we’re talking mostly about hot flashes, and brain fog, and sleep disturbances, is that the muscular-skeletal effects of losing your estrogen are profound and permanent.”

“80% of all women in midlife, as their hormones fluctuate, have muscular-skeletal pain and 25% have such severe pain it’s disabling.”

“When people fall down — usually in the 70s, both men and women — and break their hip, 50% of men and women do not return to pre-fall function and 30% of men die.”

“There is clear data that lifting heavy is what will maintain your power and as we age that’s what we need.”

“I find that being in a state of peak performance is having the faith to believe that we can do something that we cannot see.”

David does a solo episode to answer your questions, including what AGEIST is really all about, the role that age plays in dating, how to embrace aging, why David started AGEIST, cholesterol meds, the four things that David learned last year, and more.

“How to embrace aging… the first thing is: Hey! You’re alive. The alternative to aging is not being alive so, right away, gratitude. We’re doing alright. We’re still in the game.”

“Purpose does not come from passion; passion comes from purpose. Think about how you can help other people; maybe they’re people close to you, maybe they’re people far away.”

“You need a gang. Life is a social activity, and filling our lives with people that we care about, with people that care about us — you don’t need a lot but you need that core group. If you don’t have that, become a joiner, say yes, see what you can do about upping your posse value.”

“Get up in the morning, look in the mirror, and you say to yourself, ‘I am an athlete’ no matter what condition your body is in, and then behave as an athlete would behave.”

“40% reduction in all-cause mortality if you sit in a sauna that’s at least 170 degrees for 20 minutes 3 times a week. There are very few things you can do with that amount of time that has that level of effect.”

“We can do incredible things at this age.”

Dial in Your Sleep, Save Your Relationship: Wendy Troxel Feb 08, 2023

Wendy Troxel is a clinical psychologist, author, and sleep medicine expert. She joins us to discuss sleep, how sleep is actually a social activity for many and needs to be optimized as such, the physical and mental issues that come from sleep loss, the gender differences between male and female sleep, how to better co-sleep with your partner, why we should not take melatonin, how to deal with a snoring partner, and more.

“Sleep in the real world doesn’t occur in a vacuum. Sleep in the real world is often messy and noisy, and really for most people, shared. In fact, two-thirds of adults regularly share a bed with a bed partner.”

“We can’t neglect to consider the social environment when we think about risk factors for sleep as well as who is affected by our sleep.”

“Sleep itself is a highly active and dynamic state; it is not just one solitary state through the night like a light switch going off.”

“Sleep is critically important for our cognitive function, our memory. Sleep loss is associated with cognitive decline, even increased risk for Alzheimer’s disease. We know it affects our concentration, our productivity, our ability to problem solve. Sleep is also profoundly linked with our mental health and our wellbeing.”

“Women are twice as likely to have insomnia as compared to men.”

“Because there’s so much stigma attached to the marital bed, there’s just the assumption that all couples, from the time they fall in love and are together, their sleep habits should be perfectly compatible; and that’s not always the case.”

“There is not a one-size-fits-all sleeping strategy for all couples, and the more we subscribe to this belief, the more we’re pigeonholing people and couples into strategies that may not work best for them.”

The Essential Need To Extend Healthspan: Dr. Denis Noble Feb 01, 2023

What are the problems that come from aging and what can we do about them? What is the importance of staying active in old age? What is autophagy and how does it relate to the aging process?

Denis Noble, 86, is an innovator, scientist, musician, ballroom dancer, and Oxford University Emeritus Professor of Cardiovascular Physiology. He joins us to discuss how to increase our healthspans and our lifespans, what we need to know about the aging process and how it impacts our health, the importance of community, and more.

“As you get into long life but very unhealthy life, you’re having a big burden on society. I’m not blaming people. I’m saying that this is what we’re now seeing and I think we have to do something about it. I don’t think we should accept that there is nothing you can do about it.”

“There is absolutely no doubt that the biggest thing you can do to remain healthy in old age is to keep active even if it’s difficult, it’s best to keep active. You use it or you lose it.”

“The aging population suffers from these multifactorial diseases with many genes involved and that will not yield to just more sequencing of people’s genomes.”

“When you attack a late-stage cancer, you may, hopefully, kill it off enough for a permanent cure. But that’s, unfortunately, rarer than we once imagined it would be. Very often what happens is it produces a period of several years, which is good, when the cancer has retreated but it will then come back in an even more virulent form.”

“To the degree you can do it, a healthy lifestyle in terms of diet is a good thing to go for. It’s obvious also to tell your listeners that smoking is a no-no if yuo want to look after yourself in old age.”

“You can’t go run a marathon on a big full stomach and there’s a good reason for that. The blood supply during digestion is attracted to the intestines. They need the blood supply in order to do the work that is necessary to digest the food that you’ve eaten.”

“It’s very important to try to arrange your life so that you’re not alone, you do interrelate with people, and that’s a huge health benefit to be with people and find ways in which you can communicate with others.”

“We are designed, effectively, to be social people.”

Ditching the One Size Diet Culture: Robb Wolf Jan 25, 2023

Why do diets have to be individualized? What are the myths around sodium? How much sodium do we need a day? Why do so many people fail at diets? Why does just drinking water not properly hydrate you? How does Covid impact sodium levels? How do altitude and cold weather impact our hydration? What is the connection between electrolytes and breast feeding?

Robb Wolf, former research biochemist, 2 time New York Times/Wall Street Journal Best-selling author of The Paleo Solution and Wired To Eat, and co-founder of LMNT Electrolytes, joins us on the podcast to discuss how diets must be individualized, the myths about sodium, how drinking just water won’t properly hydrate you, and more.

“In a world where it’s difficult find meaning, attaching oneself to a dietary or fitness tribe, like Cross Fit, is powerful. It’s really, really powerful.”

“If we don’t have enough sodium in circulation, we will mine sodium out of our body, out of our bones to supply the sodium that we need, at least for some period of time.”

“Interestingly, there’s a really high linkage between low sodium intake and osteoporosis.”

“Generally, when people shift to a mainly whole food type diet, their glycemic load drops which drops their insulin, drops their tendency to retain sodium.”

“The literature is pretty clear that it’s far more dangerous from a health and a death perspective to have too low sodium than too high.”

“I quoted these numbers in both of my books but 45 million Americans try a diet 3-4x a year and largely fail.”

“If we just hammer water, what we end up doing is diluting those electrolytes and getting them further and further out of balance.”

Dr. Donald Abrams, Professor Emeritus of Medicine at UCSF, is an integrative oncologist with 39 years of experience. He works with people living with and beyond cancer and has a focus on nutrition, physical exercise, stress reduction, and lifestyle changes.

Dr. Abrams joins us to discuss the link between obesity and cancer, how sugar impacts cancer, the health risks of dairy and meat, what to know about alcohol consumption and cannabis, what to eat to reduce the risk of cancer, and more.

“The number one cause of both morbidity and mortality are dietary issues which have surpassed high blood pressure and smoking and does not include high body mass index or obesity. What we eat is really critical.”

“Somewhere between 10-40% of all cancer is related to overweight or obesity and, since ⅔ of the American public is now overweight or obese, it’s a big problem.”

“We now believe that inflammation is a leading cause of many of the degenerative diseases of aging: dementia, heart disease, and cancer, particularly.”

“Cancer needs sugar to grow.”

“We believe that 6% of all cancer is now related to alcohol consumption and the leading cause of death from alcohol in people over the age of 50 is now cancer.”

“I believe the diet should be organic, plant-based, antioxidant rich, anti-inflammatory, real, and whole foods.”

“If we’re going to let food be our medicine and medicine be our food, organic is more potent than conventional.”

“I want to teach women how to ask questions. If they don’t feel comfortable with the answers, move on to somebody else and keep going after it because they’re not crazy and they need to feel like they’re heard.”

“I do believe that if you’re doing things that feel right for you and make you feel good, then you have that confidence.”

“For my first two years [of menopause], it was about just surviving, trying to feel normal again, healthy again, sexy again.”

“There’s a lot of mental health things that come with menopause. It’s not just one of the symptoms; it really changes a lot about that part of your life.”

“I had a lot of very dark moments but I didn’t know that was perimenopause; that wasn’t even a word that I was aware of.”

“You’re never too old to have fun.”

Goals: Make It Happen. Greg Scheinman Jan 04, 2023

How can we make goals for ourselves and achieve them? How specific do we have to make them? Goals vs resolutions? We need to create a specific game plan, or else we will just be floundering. But when do we know if a goal is too big? Focus on the community you hang out with.

He is a former partner at Insgroup, the founder and former CEO of Team Baby Entertainment, founder and former CEO of ROW Studios, and an investor.

Greg joins us for this motivating New Year episode to discuss how to set and actually achieve your goals, how to change your habits, how to maximize your life, the importance of your community, and more.

“Whatever your goal is: purpose, process, payoff. There has to be something quantifiable to go towards or you’re going to struggle with actually achieving that goal because you don’t really know what is going to make that goal a reality.”

“People are going to make a lot of resolutions like they always do and then they’re going to break them at some point because they haven’t really quantified what it looks like to maintain them.”

“You develop these habits, we all develop these habits, good, bad, whatever they are, that becomes our default of how we operate. When we get outside of our personal operating system, it doesn’t feel great. Just like a computer or business, we can continue to update our operating system and we should.”

“Mediocrity happens by default, maximization happens by design. None of this happens by accident; they’re conscious choices and decisions we make.”

“Anything and everything that you want in life is absolutely available and happening out there. You’ve just got to put yourself out there and into it.”

“You don’t have to think about completely reinventing yourself. What you can do is you can agree to release yourself to the process, to just start it, to taking that first step and then another one.”

“Believe that you can make change. Whatever that is. Believe that whatever you want to do or have in your life is not only possible but highly probable if you are willing to commit to the process and do the work.”

Psychedelic Medicine and Brain Health: Lynn Marie Morski Dec 21, 2022

How can psychedelics help us heal? Can psychedelics be used for brain health and neuroplasticity? What is the right setting for taking psychedelics? Who should you be with? What are the clinical applications of psychedelics? What is a “challenging psychedelic trip”? What is microdosing? What sort of person should not do psychedelics?

Lynn Marie Morski is a Mayo Clinic-trained physician, attorney, and former adjunct law professor. Dr. Morski spent nine years as a physician at the Veterans Administration. She now spreads the word about psychedelic science and healing and is the president of the Psychedelic Medicine Association.

Lynn Marie Morski joins us to discuss psychedelics. She shares how psychedelics are being used for neuroplasticity, PTSD, trauma, depression, and more. She also shares the current legalization and decriminalization status for psychedelics.

Disclaimer: This is not medical advice. If you are interested in psychedelics, go to a trained professional (not Burning Man).

“Psychedelics generally amplify whatever emotion you’re having. So instead of being able to go in and do deep work, if you’re already anxious it might just make you more anxious.”

“There’s a number of things that psychedelics do but increasing neuroplasticity definitely does help because you’re changing the way that your brain functions.”

“Right now, mental health conditions with trauma at their core and physical conditions that have relation to neurology are probably the two most promising areas.”

“Psychedelics increase connectivity and they reset the default mode network.”

“Step one: don’t take drugs from strangers.”

Ryan Smith, co-founder and vice president of business development at TruDiagnostic, joins us to discuss how his company is improving longevity by understanding our biological age vs chronological age, the different factors that accelerate or slow the aging process, and more.

“This idea of epigenetics is the on or off switches to your genes, controlling what actually gets expressed and then how those cells ultimately behave.”

“People who are fast agers are, on average, 65% more likely to die than those who are average or slow agers.”

“From an epidemiological perspective, there are a lot of things that I would recommend across the board and that is: getting proper sleep, making sure that you’re eating a healthy diet, making sure that you’re staying insulin sensitive and not insulin resistant.”

“Working over 40 hours a week has been correlated to at least 1.5 years of additional age increase. The impact of stress has been one of those things that’s surprising in its effect size. It’s something that most people would consider as the main intervention for longevity.”

“Reducing stress is incredibly impactful.”

“We know physical activity is impactful but it’s not the same effect size as things like BMI or stress.”

Tom McCook, founder and director of Center of Balance, is an internationally recognized Pilates teacher and movement specialist. Tom's mission is to improve people's lives through movement to cultivate health and body wisdom.

Tom joins us to discuss the importance of mobility and movement, how daily movement can transform our mental health, the importance of properly warming up our joints, and more.

“As you age, one of the things that we don’t tend to think about very much is our joints. We don’t tend to think about our joints until they hurt.”

“If movement feels good, you look forward to it.”

“You can change your health. You can improve your health. And it doesn’t have to be ridiculous. You can start with a half an hour a day. Start with a small amount.”

“You have to move on a regular basis to keep yourself mentally fit, present, optimistic in your life, and actually resourceful. It’s so important.”

“If you’re in a slightly depressed, down mood, you can do 15-20 minutes of movement and totally shift your mood.”

“If you want to age well, you need to learn how your body is designed.”

It Is All About The Individual, Not The Big Medical Studies: Dr. Max Testa Nov 22, 2022

What can we learn from the team doctor for elite athletes who has helped on nearly 30 Tours de France and is now working with us mortals? Why are athletes taking Viagra for performance? What are the health benefits of exercise? How are exercise and diet personal to each person? Why do we need to re-evalute all medical and drug studies and go more with the individual?

Dr. Max Testa is a sports medicine physician and coach whose methodology emphasizes the importance of a fine-tuned human engine to help athletes reach peak performance. He now works at the Park City Hospital in sports medicine seeing patients of every level of fitness, with and without medical conditions. Dr. Max Testa discusses nitric oxide, the benefits of exercise, how everyone’s diet and fitness is personal to them, heart rate, and more.

“At the end of the day, you have to go back to basics. Your diet has to be mainly based on healthy food.”

“If your blood pressure goes down, your heart has to spend less energy to pump the same amount of blood per minute.”

“Often we hear the concept of exercise as a medicine or exercise is medicine and there is nothing more true than that. Exercise has some pharmacological-like effect on the body.”

“Not everyone responds to the same training.”

“I start with what the science shows, for sure, but then I tell my patient, ‘The result is not as good as I was expecting; maybe we should try this other thing.’ Sometimes you have to try more than once to find the right balance.”

“Everything about exercise and nutrition is multifactorial. You have to find the key to open your own door.”

The Importance of Strength Training for All Ages: Eric Levitan Nov 16, 2022

What is the importance of strength and resistance training? Why do people fall more as they get older? How is Eric Levitan improving the quality of life of people as they age? What is sarcopenia? What are the benefits of working out in small groups?

Eric Levitan is passionate about improving lives, driving innovation and nurturing start-ups – the perfect combination for creating Vivo. From personal experience, he recognized that fitness videos and online streaming classes, while convenient, weren’t effective for inspiring behavioral change: They lacked individualized attention and didn’t inspire accountability. Vivo has reinvented the concept of virtual fitness with live, interactive small-group classes and ongoing live, one-on-one progress assessments.

Eric discusses how he came to start Vivo, the importance of strength and resistance training for anybody at any age, the benefit of working out in small groups, and more.

“Our muscle mass and our strength really act as that gatekeeper for so much of what happens to us as we age.”

“If we can challenge our muscles on a regular basis, it doesn’t matter what age we are, we could be 25 we could be 95, it’s never too late to rebuild muscle mass, to regain strength and function and to maintain your quality of life, to maintain your independence.”

“Everybody knows that exercise is good for you but I think the large narrative is around walking and cardiovascular health. We’re largely ignoring the importance of resistance training or strength training.”

“A lot of falls happen not necessarily because we lose our balance but because we’re walking and something distracts us.”

“It’s never too late. Know what’s possible. Aging does not need to equate to decline.”

Joel Jamieson is a best-selling author and one of the world’s foremost authorities on strength, conditioning, and energy systems. His training strategies have been used by thousands of elite performers and top athletes worldwide, including the Navy SEALS, UFC champions, and dozens of teams from the NFL, NBA, MLS, NCAA, and more. Joel joins us to discuss the importance of aerobic conditioning, how to properly recover, the importance of stress, and more.

“To me, performance is living a healthy, long life where you’re free of disease and you can do all the things that you love doing.”

“Exercise, strength, and conditioning activity, they are tools to make our bodies more resilient to stress.”

“Aging is really just the accumulation of stress over the course of our lives and ultimately our bodies lose the ability to adapt to it and then we start the declining process. If we can make our bodies much more resilient and much more stress capable, then we can delay that process significantly.”

“You’ve got to get enough sleep. Sleep is the #1 thing. If you’re not getting sleep, you’re severely limited because that’s when your body is the most recovery driven.”

“I have a really simple rule for most people. 80-90% of the time when you walk out of the gym, you should feel at least as good as when you walked in, if not better. You should not walk out of the gym feeling exhausted and defeated and destroyed.”

“Exercise is the single most powerful tool that we have.”

“If you have really bad genetics and you have a shitty lifestyle, it can catch up to you pretty fast.”

“If you’ve got someone who sees something in you, it’s quite a gift.”

“I lived in that world of ‘Nobody sees me, why should I do anything to make me vital and joyous and loving?’ ”

“We reach a certain age and realize ‘I’ve never put my needs first, ever.’ And choosing myself first became an enormous gift.”

“There’s something about what I’ve achieved through this that doesn’t have anything to do with the aesthetic.”

“Weightlifting, especially for an older woman, is fricken empowering as hell.”

“If I can do this, what else is possible?”

How Our Thoughts Change Our DNA: Dr. Kien Vuu Oct 19, 2022

Dr. Kien Vuu, concierge performance and longevity physician specializing in human optimization and regenerative medicine, media expert, and author, joins us on the SuperAge podcast to discuss bioenergetics, how our thoughts impact our physical health, the importance of challenge, and more.

“Bioenergetics is really the flow of energy between living organisms and it turns out that every energetic input, whether it’s sound, whether it’s light, whether it’s emotion, is energy that gets translated into different forms and actually affects our biology.”

“The thoughts that we focus on actually create biochemical changes that happen in our body.”

“Our DNA is not fixed. Our DNA is constantly listening to its external environment and then it’s making changes. Are we in a healthy environment? If so, let’s turn on the healing genes. Let’s turn on the stem cells for us to heal. But if it thinks that we are in a stressful environment, it’s going to turn up those inflammatory genes.”

“How we live our life is actually medicine. Our biography actually affects our biology.”

“If I want to become a better version of myself, what’s stopping me? What’s the thing that keeps stopping me? It’s probably old ways of thinking, feeling, and acting that finds you stuck.”

“If we could start to take challenge as an opportunity, do whatever it takes to upgrade ourselves, to overcome that challenge, we’re suddenly a stronger version of ourself; we’re a more resilient version of ourself.”

How Increased Lifespan Impacts Our Financial Planning: Fanci Worthington Oct 12, 2022

With extended lifespans, how much money do we need to be comfortable for the rest of our lives? How can we plan and set ourselves up financially? How is retirement changing? What is an annuity? How is the approach to finances different for men and women? What do we need to know about IRAs? What about taxes? What is the benefit of having a financial advisor? How does one go about finding a financial advisor?

Fanci Worthington is a certified financial planner and accredited investment fiduciary with 27 years of experience. Fanci joins us to discuss what we need to do to set ourselves up for success when it comes to our finances, how increased life expectancy is impacting our finances, what an annuity is, how to find the right financial advisor, and more.

“Now the biggest threat to portfolios is living too long.”

“There’s a theory that the average age of someone born in 2020 could very likely be 120.”

“I’m turning 50 this year and my thought process of turning 50 is that I’m starting a farm. My friends that are older, when they were turning 50 they were talking about slowing down and I’m adding to. I’m adding to my physical labor, I’m adding to my mentality. It’s a totally different mentality than, say, my parents.”

“Financial issues are a major cause for divorce.”

“Money can be an emotional discussion and something that people are afraid to talk about with each other because they don’t want to get in a fight.”

“A very valuable piece of living longer is removing stress. Take your stress away. And if your stress is about money, or family dynamics, or who's going to inherit what, and those types of things, let somebody help you. It’s so much easier.”

Dr. Roizen joins us to discuss his new book The Great Age Reboot, how stress impacts our health, what numbers we should aim for for cholesterol, therapeutic plasma exchange, and more.

“Stress, it turns out, turns on genes that make proteins that cause inflammation. Moderating stress — that is, happiness — turns off those same genes and turns on genes that make anti-inflammatory proteins — proteins that decrease inflammation.”

“The most important things are posse and purpose: having 6 friends you’re vulnerable to every month, having a purpose in life, and a job with latitude.”

“When you exercise, you change the genes that are on in your microbiome. When you’re stressed, you change which genes are on in your microbiome.”

“I still think you should shoot for cholesterol less than 70 in your blood.”

“The most important things you do for brain health are posse and purpose, that’s one. The second one is to add speed to your exercise, that is to stress your muscle; and the third is to add speed to your brain games.”

The Power of Vulnerability: Greg Scheinman Sep 28, 2022

Why do men struggle with being vulnerable? What are the life expectancy differences between men and women? How can we connect with new people in real life? What is the importance of asking people for help, especially for men? What’s the deal with mansplaining?

Greg Scheinman is the creator of The Midlife Male™, a newsletter and podcast designed to help men navigate and maximize middle age to achieve a better quality of life. Greg is a former partner at Insgroup, the founder and former CEO of Team Baby Entertainment, founder and former CEO of ROW Studios, and an investor.

Greg joins us to discuss why men tend to struggle with being vulnerable and asking for help, how to get 1% better each day, the importance of reaching out to new people, and more.

“How do we flip the midlife crisis on its ear and see that the next phase is our best phase rather than our best days being behind us?”

“58% of men in midlife report anxiety, loneliness, frustration, fear of aging, deep regret around the decisions that matter most. And it’s a time period where self-confidence is at an all time low.”

“You don’t go from fat to fit overnight. You don’t go from unhealthy to healthy overnight. It’s a series of daily wins and progress.”

“Weakness is not asking for help. The weakness is thinking you know everything, that you’ve got to push that boulder up the hill all by yourself. That you’ve got to have all the answers.”

“What if instead of viewing aging as something to be afraid of, as something to fear, what if we started to see aging as something aspirational, something inspiring?”

“Focus on the small little wins or the 1% better each and every day.”

“Don’t just be in motion. Take action.”

Ross Pelton, pharmacist and scientific director for Essential Formulas, Inc joins us to discuss rapamycin and its potential benefit for age-related diseases, its connection to cancer treatment, intermittent fasting, and more.

Disclaimer: This is not medical advice. Always consult your doctor before adding any supplements or medications into your life.

“Rapamycin is the most effective anti-aging drug that’s ever been discovered.”

“These days, people start eating at 7 in the morning and do breakfast, lunch and dinner and mid-meal snacks and dessert after supper and maybe an evening cocktail. So, from 7 in the morning until 7 at night, that’s 12 hours, another 4 hours to finish digesting food, that’s 16 hours. Whereas ancestral humans only had 4 hours of eating and digesting a day.”

“You can’t be in a go, go, go position all the time or you will burn yourself out.”

“In animal studies, virtually every single type of age-related disease improves when the animals take rapamycin.”

The Critical Importance of Nitric Oxide and How to Get More of It: Dr. Nathan Bryan Sep 14, 2022

Dr. Nathan Bryan is an international leader in molecular medicine and nitric oxide biochemistry. Dr. Bryan was the first to describe nitrite and nitrate as indispensable nutrients required for optimal cardiovascular health. He was the first to demonstrate and discover an endocrine function of nitric oxide via the formation of S-nitrosoglutathione and inorganic nitrite.

Thank you to our sponsor, LMNT. Listeners receive a free 8-serving sample pack with your purchase here.

Thank you to our sponsor, InsideTracker. Listeners get 20% off on all products here.

Dr. Bryan joins us on the SuperAge podcast to explain this complex topic. He shares the role nitric oxide plays in inflammation and blood flow, the connection between nitric oxide and our oral microbiome, how to test our nitric oxide levels, what the importance of daily sunlight is, red light therapy, the connection to Raynauds, and more.

“Every single chronic disease whether its heart disease, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, liver disease, or lung disease, the common denominator in all of them is decreased blood flow, increased inflammation, and nitric oxide is what controls and regulates both of those things. It decreases inflammation and increases blood flow.”

“People who use mouthwash have higher blood pressure than those who don’t and it puts them at an increased risk for heart attack and stroke.”

“If you’re using mouthwash, you have to stop. Mouthwash is bad news. There is clear evidence that it increases blood pressure. In fact, if you use mouthwash and exercise, you lose the cardioprotective benefits of exercise.”

“Exercise stimulates nitric oxide production and that’s why exercise is medicine.”

“Since 1946 – 2018 there’s a 78% decline in all nutrients in plants grown and vegetables grown in the US.”

“The foods we eat today, every single American is deficient in one or more nutrients.”

“Taking apple cider ginger before every meal is probably the best therapeutic strategy you can do.”

“Most Americans with chronic disease are overmedicated. They’re on 6, 8, 10 sometimes 12 different medications and there’s never a discussion of how the physician is going to get you off of those meds. With that many drugs your body cannot heal itself, your body can’t perform.”

Cold Exposure Therapy Is Highly Beneficial: Jono James Sep 07, 2022

What are the benefits of cold exposure? How did Jono James take control of his health after a terminal diagnosis through practices like cold exposure? Why does the body need stressors like cold and exercise? What types of breathing help during cold exposure?

Thank you to our sponsor, InsideTracker. Listeners get 20% off on all products here.

Jono James was born with a condition called cystic fibrosis which impacts his lungs, liver, pancreas, and digestive system. He was given 10 years to live when he was born. Now, he is 35 years old and, through a series of natural health methods, including cold therapy, he took control of his diagnosis and beat the odds. Jono created Odin Ice Baths to help others because of the success he has found in doing cold therapy.

Cold therapy has been beneficial in David’s life by helping him recover from workouts faster, preventing injury, reducing pain, enhancing mental and cognitive function, improving sleep, and more. Always check with your doctor to make sure that your body can handle cold exposure, and to what degree.

“I’m 35 now and I was given 10 years to live when I was born, more or less. Most people look at me and don’t think there’s anything wrong with me. That comes down to me trying everything… I’ve treated myself like a one-person clinical trial and I’ve tried things over and over again and, eventually, I found a select few things that really, really help me.”

“There are so many people with anxiety and depression these days and most people seem to find that they get a lot of benefit from the ice baths.”

“It’s a positive stress on the body. It’s a stress that challenges the body to get better.”

“When you exercise, the body goes, ‘Oh, I’m not actually good enough how I am now. You’re putting me under a bit of pressure; I need to build muscle mass and become better and stronger.’ ”

“The body is not designed to sit around on a comfy couch. It’s supposed to be challenged, it’s supposed to be a tool for foraging and hunting. The more we separate ourselves from the way we used to do things the less good our health becomes.”

“In an ideal world, I’d do sauna every day.”

“We are focusing on preventative and curative strategies and not these maintenance strategies where you’re given medication for the rest of your life and you still are deteriorating or you’re still not getting better.”

“Symptoms are the terminal stages of a disease. Molecular disease happens years oor decades before the symptoms are felt. If you want to know your status that you are heading for a heart attack, you can know that 30 years before the heart attack.”

How to Take Care of Your Mind: Dr. Richard Davidson Aug 24, 2022

Is our mind our brain? How does meditation help us inspect our minds? What is the connection between anxiety and meditation? What is the connection between our mind and addiction? How can we measure our wellbeing?

Thank you to our sponsor, Viome. SuperAge listeners get $30 off Viome’s Health Intelligence Test with code “AGEIST” here.

Richard J. Davidson, PhD is a Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry, Founder and Director of the Center for Healthy Minds, University of Wisconsin-Madison, and the Founder and Chief Visionary for Healthy Minds Innovations, Inc.

Dr. Davidson explores what our minds are, how types of meditation help us inspect our minds, his relationship with His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, how we can measure wellbeing, and more.

“Beliefs about ourselves, the world, and our expectations literally shape our experience in the world.”

“I often say that meditation is like sports. There are many, many, many varieties and they each will have differing effects.”

“Thinking is what human minds and brains do. We’re very well equipped to think. The goal of meditation is not to stop thinking, the goal is to stop getting lost.”

“We can’t transform our mind unless we know what our minds are actually doing.”

“When you begin to actually open up the black box of our mind, begin to inspect it and interrogate it, it could be terrifying to see what’s there because it’s so chaotic for many people.”

“One of the things that distinguish humans from other species is that we have the capacity to engage in mental time travel. We can reflect on the past and we can anticipate the future.”

“Human beings are born to flourish. We have all of the capabilities to lead a happy, meaningful, and engaged life. We come into the world with those capacities but they need to be nourished in order for them to be expressed.”

What are the different types of hearing loss? How can we prevent and treat hearing loss? What is the difference between an audiologist, ENT, otologist? What is the impact of today’s earbuds and headphones? What is the connection between hearing loss and cognitive decline? What are cochlear implants? What is tinnitus?

“Hearing loss really is a silent epidemic because once you start losing your hearing you don’t really know what you’re missing.

“The funny thing about the human brain is that your brain will reorganize the way that it processes information if you’re missing access to speech information.”

“If you’re someone who is 65 years old and you have not had an actual, legitimate baseline hearing test by an audiologist, you need to find an audiologist in your area and schedule a baseline test whether you think you have hearing loss or not.”

“It only takes as little as 3 months with mild level hearing loss for your brain to start changing the way that it processes information.”

“If you have mild level hearing loss you are 2x more likely to develop dementia. If you have moderate hearing loss you are 3x more likely and if you have severe hearing loss you are 5x more likely to develop dementia.”

“Hearing loss is the leading potentially modifiable risk factor for dementia later in life and it accounts for 9% of your overall risk of developing dementia.”

How the Body Changes During Menopause and What You Can Do About It: Anissa Buckley Aug 11, 2022

What are the stages of perimenopause, menopause and post-menopause? How does a woman’s body change during menopause? What role does diet play? How much protein, carbohydrates, and fat should women eat? What is the benefit of HIIT and strength training for women? How does a woman’s metabolism change in menopause?

Thank you to our sponsor, Viome. SuperAge listeners get $30 off Viome’s Health Intelligence Test with code “AGEIST” here.

Anissa Buckley is a champion of life. She holds an MBA and a BS from Cornell University, an Integrative Health Coaching certification from Duke Integrative Medicine, a holistic nutrition counseling certification (CHHC) from The Institute for Integrative Nutrition, and a personal training certification (CPT) from The National Academy of Sports Medicine. Now, she is the founder and CEO of b-untethered, a personalized menopause diet and fitness lifestyle solution.

Anissa shares her journey of being rocked by the physical and emotional changes that perimenopause and menopause brought, how she took agency over her own health during and post menopause, and her mission to help other women do the same.

“When I was 45, I was in perimenopause which is really the most critical time for a woman because that’s when a lot of things can happen to your hormones. Your estrogen levels can just start rollercoastering and your progesterone, which balances out or offsets estrogen, can stay flat and you can imagine that that can really cause havoc.”

“I really wanted to understand what we could do as women with our lifestyle — not medications, but more about how we could change our lifestyle to help us mitigate some of these impacts that we see.”

“When women hit menopause, they lose the ability to utilize carbs the same way.”

“Lifestyle can control for about 80% of chronic conditions. The CDC says that. That’s not just you and me making up statistics.”

“It’s not necessarily an easy thing to make a life shift but it’s baby steps. You don’t have to be perfect on day 1. You just have to start making some changes and you’ll start to feel better and then you’ll want to make more changes. It’s that simple."

Improved Brain Function From Movement and Functional Neurology: Dr. David Hardy Aug 03, 2022

What is functional neurology and who can benefit from it? Can functional neurology make you smarter? What does Dr. Hardy test for to determine the health of the brain? What is the relationship between moving and thinking? How can you address age-related cognitive decline with functional neurology? What is the process of cognitive decline? How does posture connect to the brain?

Dr. David Hardy, functional neurologist, uses several techniques that specifically stimulate neuronal receptors, nerves, pathways, and circuits to improve an individual's own neuroplasticity. Through his work, he enhances his patient's brains and nervous systems. He shares what functional neurology is, how it can be used to enhance performance, brain health, and more.

“We’ve got all these weak or strong areas of our brain that we can hone in on and make changes and make improvements to improve our lives, performance, and how smart we are.”

“The thing with cognition especially as we age is we became really good at one aspect. So we can appear smart because we’re always rehearsed but the rest of the ship might be starting to leak and eventually it’s going to lead to a decline in our cognitive thoughts as well.”

“Our nervous system is there to regulate our own body against the outside world and to move around, read, and react.”

“If you’re in the stress posture, what are your head and neck like? They're going forward and you have all this tension through those muscles. All of that is sending signals up to the brain and then that signal fires into our feelings center and then we are annoyed, sore, stiff, and will probably snap at people a lot easier.”

“Anything new is going to stimulate the brain in a more impactful way. This is also a way to measure decline as we age. How able are we to actually learn new tasks?”

Mouth Breathing Is Ruining Your Health: Patrick McKeown Jul 27, 2022

Is there a proper way to breathe? What are the health consequences of mouth breathing? How can you change the way you breathe? How does mouth breathing impact dental health? What about snoring? What is the importance of down-regulating before sleep? How does breathing impact our blood pressure? Does Wim Hof-style breathing stress the body?

Thank you to our sponsor, InsideTracker. Listeners get 20% off on all products here.

Patrick McKeown is a leading international expert on breathing and sleep. He is the creator, CEO and Director of Education and Training at Oxygen Advantage®, Director of Education and Training at Buteyko Clinic International and President of Buteyko Professionals International. Patrick explains the many health and mental consequences of mouth breathing, how to properly breathe, the connection between breathing and sleep, how Wim Hof-style breathing stresses the body, and much more.

“People who mouth breathe are more prone to dental cavities, gum disease, bad breath.”

“Dry mouth signifies that you’ve been traumatizing your airways all night long.

“If you’re breathing hard and fast, there’s an increased negative pressure in the airway and this is going to contribute to a lapse of the airway.”

“By breathing through the nose, you’ve got correct tongue-resting posture. With your tongue resting on the roof of the mouth, it’s less likely to encroach the airway. And also by breathing through your nose, there’s a better position of the mandible, which is your jaw.”

“10% of the population have chronic insomnia.”

“Your breathing is influencing your sleep, your sleep influences your breathing, your sleep influences your mind, but if your mind is racing, that influences your sleep. We have to look at the mind. We have to look at breathing. We have to look at sleep.”

“Breathing has been overlooked in so many industries. It’s been overlooked in psychiatry. 75% of people with anxiety and panic disorder have dysfunctional breathing. Lower back pain. 50% of people with lower back pain have dysfunctional breathing.”

Fructose’s Effect on the Brain: Dr. Richard Johnson Jul 20, 2022

What is the relationship between fructose and Alzheimer’s disease? Does fructose cause inflammation? How does fructose impact blood pressure? What about cancer? What role does fructose have in obesity and diabetes? What role does fiber have in the absorption of fructose? Does how quickly you drink a sugary drink impact how much damage it does to the body?

Thank you to our sponsor, InsideTracker. SuperAge listeners get 20% off all products here.

Professor, clinician, obesity researcher, and author Richard S. Johnson, MD explains how fructose impacts our health from its role in obesity, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, cancer, blood pressure, and more. And David asks the question: can we still eat fruit and be healthy?! Dr. Johnson explains.

“Natural fruits are good but don’t get that big bowl of grapes when you’re watching TV and eat the whole thing because then you will be activating the switch.”

“If I took a soft drink and I just took one sip every 10 minutes, and I took two hours to drink it, it would be a calorie, it wouldn’t really be more than that. But if I took that soft drink and I drank it, especially on an empty stomach, and just guzzled it down, it would be a big, big activator.”

“We know that foods like bread, rice, and potatoes increase our risk for obesity.”

“When you eat fructose, the first thing it does is make you hungry, make you thirsty, and it makes you want to forage for food.”

“People who are overweight or obese are at increased risk for certain types of cancer. Breast cancer is higher for women who are overweight, colon cancer, liver cancer, and pancreatic cancer. It’s been known that these cancer cells like to grow in the presence of fructose.”

Big Bad Blood Pressure – You Can Fix This: Dr. Robert Todd Hurst Jul 13, 2022

What is high blood pressure? How many people have high blood pressure? What things contribute to high blood pressure? What lifestyle changes can we make to treat or prevent high blood pressure? What is the benefit of aerobic exercise? What about strength training? What is the impact of stress on blood pressure? What is Afib? What is the impact of salt on blood pressure? What should we know about baby aspirin?

Thank you to our sponsor, InsideTracker. Listeners get 20% off here.

Dr. Robert Todd Hurst is a board-certified preventive cardiologist and founder of HealthspanMD. He spent 12 years as a Consultant in Cardiovascular Diseases at Mayo Clinic, where he was an Associate Professor of Medicine in the Mayo Clinic School of Medicine & Founding Director of the Heart Health and Performance Program.

He shares everything we need to know about blood pressure from how to treat and prevent high blood pressure, what lifestyle behaviors are contributing factors, the impact of salt, whether we should be taking baby aspirin, and more.

“Blood pressure can have a devastating effect on our health when it’s not treated well.”

“High blood pressure is the second biggest contributor to the number one cause of death and disability which is heart disease. It also is the primary contributor to stroke and the second strongest factor for kidney failure, as well as diabetes.”

“We don’t need to spend another dime on research to understand how to best treat high blood pressure. And yet, this condition, which kind of flies under the radar from doctors and from patients, accounts for 1,100 deaths a day in the United States. 1,100 preventable deaths a day.”

“People that are over the age of 74, 85% of them have high blood pressure.”

“In my estimation, about 75% of blood pressure can be treated and even mostly cured without medications.”

“I’ve come to have an amazing amount of respect for how impactful stress is for a lot of people and for many it is the primary driver of their blood pressure, of their heart disease, of their weight issues. They can’t get where they need to go until they figure out how to manage stress better.”

“Afib is an epidemic now in the country. It’s the number one heart rhythm problem cardiologists deal with. Any cardiologist that works in a hospital will tell you that they are overrun by people with Afib.”

“Omega-3s are ultimately a health-contributing fat that helps your body return to its homeostasis. They need to be in balance with omega-6s because if they aren’t, you’ll have inflammatory systems that run out of control.”

“Try to avoid all the trans fats, limit your saturated fats, and you’ll be a lot more healthy than the run-of-the-mill person.”

“Generally speaking, if you haven’t taken an omega-3 supplement, you are likely deficient.”

“EPA and DHA — these powerful omega-3s are so involved with our brain health, they’re so involved with our emotional health, also. So there are claims you can make around EPA with regard to impacting mood health.”

“Too much of almost anything can be a bad thing. So be reasonable and be balanced.”

“Learning something new can be daunting but once you learn it, it’s no big deal.”

“The impact of running is severe and if you’re overstriding and hitting with your heel, you are going to get some injuries quick. You’re not going to be able to run 6 or 8 or 10 miles because you’re going to be a complete wreck.”

“Shoes are super, super, super important. But everybody’s feet are different and your feet handle things differently.”

“I’m 58. I’m getting ready to do a half Ironman in a few weeks and just did a 24 hour bike ride and I’m going to still do some Ulta Marathons. I didn’t do my first run ever as an adult until I was 38 years old. At 58 I still feel like I’ve got plenty of miles ahead of me.”

00:57:29 Dr. Scott's final advice on getting healthy

“The bad news is that if you live now in the world, your gut is going to be screwed up in some way.”

“Salt in water allows that water to get absorbed through your intestinal lumen, through your GI tract into your body. Without salt, some water gets absorbed but a lot of it doesn’t.”

“Your brain takes up 20% of your oxygen at all times so it’s a hugely metabolic organ.”

“If you’ve been cognitively on all day and then you go directly to workout at the gym, that’s a huge stress on your body.”

“After you come out of the cold, you get this reflex vasodilation, you get all this new blood going to your periphery. As a result of that, you feel and get this blood flow to your tissues that you may not have been getting before, especially areas that had been inflamed, areas that have been injured, areas that have been hurting like joints.”

“The fantastic thing about cold is that it’s a fantastic way to train your fear response because the first 30 seconds you feel like you’re going to die. Your body is doing everything it possibly can to tell you to get the F out of the water or out of the cold. But if you can go past that, and you can, that’s when your body gets to this blissful state of peace.”

“For people who can’t exercise because they have arthritis or they have other joint or mobility issues, you can use a high heat sauna and see significant benefit in that capacity.”

“High heat sauna is exercise, infrared is more recovery.”

“Unfortunately, heart disease is still the number 1 cause of death and disability worldwide. That’s a terrible thing in and of itself but when we realize that most of that heart disease is preventable with pretty simple interventions, it makes it even more tragic.”

“The biggest problem in healthcare is that about 60% of us have diseases that are preventable and oftentimes curable, we’re just not doing that.”

“87.8% of adults in the United States have at least one sign of cardiometabolic disease. And even more shocking, 78% of teenagers had at least one sign of cardiometabolic disease.”

“People don’t resist change, they resist being changed.”

“If your strategy as a doctor is to say ‘You need to exercise, lose weight, eat better, and quit smoking and I’ll see you in 3 months,’ we can’t be surprised that in 3 months, our patients haven’t changed.”

“If somebody is not losing the weight that they want to lose, they’re eating well, they’re being active, and they’re still not losing that weight, I almost universally will say it’s one of three things. 1. They’re not sleeping well. 2. Their stress levels are through the roof and they’re not managing that well. 3. Insulin resistance. They’re not handling glucose well.”

“One benefit leads to another benefit. You start exercising so then you sleep better which makes your stress levels better.”

Human Connection: Caroline Ingeborn May 25, 2022

How did the pandemic impact how we connect with others? What are the three things we must keep in mind to have genuine connections? What is the difference between traditional social media and Leap? How is Leap working to create a more connected world?

Caroline Ingeborn, co-founder and CEO of Leap, is building a way for people to come together and connect — in real-time and with real heart and soul. Prior to Leap, she was an entrepreneur and has acted as CEO and COO at another company. Caroline and David discuss why we feel less connected to others, how we can feel more connected, and the solution that Leap is offering.

“I think that we need a place where we can start to be truly seen, heard, and recognized by ourselves but I think more importantly by each other and I see Leap as a way to make this happen.”

“As humans, we have much more in common than not.”

“I never saw age as a reason not to be friends.”

“The pandemic amplified our social isolation. Sometimes things need to get a lot darker before they can be lighter. We were trending in this direction even without the pandemic. Maybe the pandemic has pushed us into a darker place faster but through that we can start to come together faster.”

Why Do Marriages End?: Mark Goulston May 18, 2022

In this information-dense episode, we learn several masterful points on how to relate better to all those around us. How can we become better listeners? Why do marriages end? What is the difference between feeling felt vs feeling understood? What are the gender differences when it comes to emotional intimacy? How do you properly respond to your partner’s emotions? Why don’t we understand how powerful disappointment can be in our lives?

In this re-play episode, we are featuring one of the most popular podcasts we have done. Dr. Mark Goulston, psychiatrist and author, joins us on the SuperAge podcast to share his insights on these questions. Dr. Mark Goulston dropped out of medical school twice due to depression. After a school counselor believed in him and gave him another chance, he finished medical school and wanted to pay forward what that counselor gave him. That is exactly what he is doing with his current practice. Dr. Goulston uses his empathetic personality and ability to listen to navigate his patients' issues from marriages to eating disorders to strained parent-child relationships to suicide.

Thank you to our sponsor InsideTracker. SuperAge listeners get 20% off all products here.

What you will learn in this episode:

How empathy and the ability to listen can help strengthen our relationships
Why some marriages end
Why strong personalities may have a more difficult time with emotionally intimate relationships, and how to overcome that
The power of feeling felt vs feeling understood
How to respond to your partner’s emotions

“Marriages don’t end because we stop loving each other, but because we stop feeling liked by each other.”

“Alpha energy is great for success. It’s not good for closeness. You know, it’s good to have alpha energy. You can build something, you can build a business, you can grow it, you can sell it, you can do whatever, but it’s not that good for emotional intimacy.”

“One of the reasons women will say ‘Don’t give me advice or solutions’ is because when they’re sharing something, they want to just feel less alone in the feeling, they want to feel felt by you, because if they feel felt by you, their oxytocin goes up, their cortisol goes down, their blood flow goes up to their brain, and then they can give themselves the advice they need.”

“There’s dehydration, hydration, and this middle grey area that we’re often in called underhydration and that is going to exacerbate your jetlag, it’s going to affect your mental acuity when you land. So stay fully hydrated.”

“Take advantage of whatever goes on in the location that you are in. Don’t let your body, your physicality go to 0 because you’re in a new place.”

“I try and start my mornings with 15-20 minutes of meditation and I try and do that even when I’m traveling. I just schedule it so I have that time built in. Then, I try and put a down ramp at the end of the day.”

“Everything I was reading about being over 50 was talking about winding down as opposed to winding up.”

“When you’re looking to make some kind of a change or evolve to the next place, it takes time and it takes introspection.”

“You might discover something in midlife that you learned was something that excited you.”

“We constrict ourselves and that takes away our courage to say ‘I can do that! I can run a marathon at 70. I can go back to school at 60. I can fall in love again at 80.’ Get rid of that cloak of ageism and your courage will be enhanced.”

“My plan for when I turn 70 is to hike to the Everest base camp and run a marathon down which is an annual event that happens every May… What I’m hoping to do from that experience is show that this is what you can do at 70.”

“Today’s 5 year old in the U.S., if they’re healthy, had good prenatal, and early childhood development, 50% of them have the opportunity to live to 100. That’s astounding!”

“There are about 90,000 people in the U.S. that are 100 right now. By the year 2100 the projection is there will be 3,000,000 in the U.S. and that there will be 19,000,000 around the world.”

What is pickleball? Why are there so many injuries from pickleball? What can pickleball players do to not get hurt? How can beginners get started in pickleball? What is the proper way to warm up the body before athletic activity like pickleball? What should someone do after playing? What things boost recovery? What are the benefits of cold and heat therapy for our muscles?

Tim Ringgold is a musician, athlete, and pickleball recovery expert. After years of playing soccer as a child and again in his 30s and 40s, Tim developed a traumatic brain injury from one too many concussions. In the last 18 months, he has discovered a life changing sport: pickleball. Through pickleball he has found a sense of community, gotten into athlete shape, and enhanced his joy. He’s also experienced injuries, like many pickleball players. Now, he is providing resources for other players to reduce their chance of getting hurt and spend more time enjoying the game.

00:52:40 How to start playing pickleball & resources

“When you go out and play pickleball, you feel young at heart because it’s very social and it’s a lot of fun. People underestimate it because it’s so light, playful, and social, that there are actually physical demands on the body.”

“Adults don’t really organize their activity around the concept of play. We work, children play. But there is a playfulness in pickleball that is undeniable and inescapable. You’ll see senior citizens, Boomers, Gen X-ers, laughing and playing. They’re in touch with something that they haven’t had in quite a while.”

“The number one thing to minimize injuries is core temperature of the body, so heating up the body before you play. Nobody does it.”

“When you feel good, walk away. Don’t wait until you’re sore or tired because you increase the odds of having an injury.”

“Every part of the body is going through maintenance mode during sleep and you just can’t screw with that. If you wear that system down, your immune system gets compromised and that’s when things take hold.”

“I’m the crazy guy that wakes up at 5 am every day and does cold therapy, hot therapy, meditation, workout… I’m very disciplined with my health and nutrition.”

“I still train and take care of my body like I’m a pro athlete and I think most people should be doing that.”

“You have to make decisions on an everyday basis and hopefully you make a lot more good decisions than bad and still enjoy life at the same time.”

Being Powerfully Fit, Full of Play, Joy, and Strength: Julia Linn Apr 06, 2022

Now, she is powerfully strong, has gone through an incredible physical transformation, and looks at life in a new way.

What is the balance of upstate and downstate? How can we optimize our recovery? When is the best time to do HIIT workouts? When is the best time to do strength training? How can we optimize our sleep?

Sara Mednick, PhD, professor and author, joins us on the SuperAge podcast to explain the upstate and the downstate and how we need both in order to live better. We also discuss the best times of day to workout, how to optimize our sleep, and the importance of recovery.

“Every little cell in your body has a clock and it’s looking for consistencies, consistent patterns. So the more you stay consistent with something, eating behavior, exercise behavior, or even thinking, all of that stuff your body is paying attention to.”

“The earlier you eat, the earlier your onset of melatonin, which is your sleep hormone, and the later you eat, the later the onset of melatonin. You’re going to be pushing your ‘I’m getting tired’ signals the later you eat.”

“You should keep your feet and your hands outside of the covers when you’re sleeping because it’s the best way for the heat to be constantly leaving your system while keeping your core warm.”

Health, Work and Age in the Metaverse: Bradley Schurman Mar 01, 2022

Thank you to our sponsor InsideTracker. Listeners get 20% off and free InnerAge here: https://info.insidetracker.com/ageist

What are the metaverse and Web3? How can people 50+ benefit from rapidly advancing technology? How will the metaverse and Web3 change our work lives? What about how we connect with our communities? How will the future of technology correct for ageism, racism, sexism?

Bradley Schurman, an author, demographic futurist, and opinion maker on all things dealing with the business of longevity, joins us on the SuperAge podcast for a fascinating discussion about rapidly advancing technology like the metaverse and Web3. Bradley explains how we can keep up with these innovations and use them to our advantage.
What you will learn in this episode:
- What the metaverse and Web3 are
- How the metaverse and Web3 will change our work lives and how we connect with our communities
- How nursing homes are using technology to keep their residents connected
- How the future of technology will correct for discrimination against age, gender, location, appearance
- Fraud in the digital space
- Why it is so important to stay up to date with these innovations or risk being left behind

“Thanks to decades of scientific and social innovation, we are in almost every measure living healthier, longer lives than ever before. So this idea that the age of 65 is somehow a stopping point has really become outdated.”

“It’s a lot like a tree. When we’re young, all trees look the same, we all have the same kind of sapling, the same kind of structure. But as we live, we become more diverse. We have different outcroppings of branches, and leaves, and different cycles of when we bud.”

“Tech companies’ single biggest problem is ageism. It’s not racism or sexism it is ageism and there is enough data out there to prove that.”

“As we enter this new period of time for humans where there are more older people and fewer younger people, technologies like Web3 and Metaverse, they’re going to help us find efficiencies in the system because we simply don’t have enough younger people to take care of the older population.”

“There are a lot of constructs in the world so why can’t they be in the virtual world as well? They will be. We’ll carry those constructs with us.”

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Longevity, Brain Health, & Post-Cancer Therapy: Dr. Scott Sherr Feb 15, 2022

What is hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT)? How does HBOT aid in longevity, brain health, and cancer treatments? What are the different HBOT protocols and what are the pros and cons of each? How can someone try HBOT? How can one expect to feel after the treatment? Can we do HBOT at home?

Dr. Scott Sherr, the director of Integrative Hyperbaric Medicine and Health Optimization at Hyperbaric Medical Solutions, joins us on the SuperAge podcast to share everything we need to know about hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). Specifically, he discusses how HBOT promotes longevity, brain health, and aids in post-cancer therapy. He also explains the mechanics of HBOT, who will benefit, and some supplemental healthy habits we all should be doing to optimize our health.

What you will learn:

What HBOT is
Who can benefit from HBOT
Who should not do HBOT
The different HBOT protocols and mechanics of the treatment
Healthy habits to optimize your health
What is oxidative stress

“You can’t argue with the imaging, as far as I’m concerned. You can’t argue with somebody’s brain that’s either had a stroke or traumatic brain injury, gets into a hyperbaric chamber and then you can see their brains come back to life.”

“I was asked to speak at a hyperbaric conference during the pandemic and the first title that I had was: ‘Please don’t put them in the chamber.’ Because of course, if you have a therapy, you’re going to want to use it on everybody. So one of the roles that I have in the hyperbaric world is to try to educate people on when is the best time to use the chamber, what types of chambers are best to use for that particular condition, and when to not go into the chamber.”

“Senescent cells are also called zombie cells. The reason they’re called zombie cells is because they don’t die and they don’t divide. They just stick around, don’t work anymore, and cause inflammation. As we get older, the population of senescent cells increases, and as they increase so does your risk of cancer, heart disease, and inflammation degeneration.”

“What hyperbaric therapy is doing is it’s very much working at the cellular level.”

“Everyone can benefit from hyperbaric oxygen therapy at some point in their life. It’s not a question of if, it’s a question of when.”

“More is not always better. It’s not the American way here. We want to fine-tune our protocols so that we’re focused on the brain, or we’re focused on the body.”

“Unfortunately the medical paradigm is: drugs first, ask questions later.”

Is there such a thing as drinking too much water?

Professor, clinician, obesity researcher, and author Richard S. Johnson, MD joins us on the SuperAge podcast to share his breakthrough research on obesity. He explains the causes of obesity, how being underhydrated impacts obesity and much water we should drink, what diet we should avoid, and more.

What you will learn in this episode:

How animals (and humans) become obese
The difference between fructose and glucose
How fructose directly impacts weight gain
What we should avoid eating

“It’s the sugar-fed animals that get diabetes. It’s the sugar-fed animals that get fatty liver. It’s the sugar-fed animals that shoot their lipids up in their blood. It’s the sugar-fed animals that develop hypertension.”

“When the body thinks it doesn’t have enough energy, it goes into a survival mode. And it stores fat, stores carbohydrates as glycogen, becomes insulin resistant.”

“We actually could reverse obesity in animals that were overweight on sugar by increasing their water intake.”

“I encourage everyone to hydrate better. Drink 6-8 glasses of water a day, maybe in some cases up to 10 glasses day.”

“Of the 1 in 8 women who will receive an invasive breast cancer diagnosis at some point in her life, only 5-10% are genetic. And that baffled me. That’s when I put the journalism hat on, I started all the research, I dug in deep, and I learned it really is what we put in, on, and around our bodies that turn on or off certain dormant cancer cells or genes.”

“Just start. If it’s 5 minutes once a week because that’s all you can do because you’re starting from zero, that’s okay. That is absolutely okay.”

Peptides - The Future of Medicine: Kien Vuu, MD Jan 18, 2022

What are peptides and what are the benefits? What are some of the cautions? How are peptides administered? How can I find a doctor who is trained in anti-aging or functional medicine?

Dr. Kien Vuu has joined us on the SuperAge podcast twice before to share his knowledge on Regenerative and Anti-Aging medicine and today he joins us to dive into the topic of peptides, of which he is an expert.

He discusses the many benefits of incorporating peptides into our routines lets us know where to start.

“A lot of the protein function as well as the peptide function decrease with age.”

“There is detriment when you try to push yourself too much. And as a physician in the anti-aging space, you have to kind of judge what is safe for the patient and what is not.”

“It is the habits we have that dictate whether we have optimal health and the performance we want, or we are in a stress state.”

“There are a lot of black market peptides going on right now so be aware of them.”

Learn more about and apply for our transformative How to Super Age: Mastermind Seminar and Group here: https://www.weareageist.com/how-to-super-age-a-mastermind-seminar-and-group-ii/

Is botox a toxin? What is the purpose of fillers? What does CoolSculpting do and what should we be aware of before doing it? What do we need to know about lasers? What are the cautions for doing more invasive facial resurfacing treatments? What new skincare treatments are on the horizon? What should we do every day for better skin? In what order should we apply our skincare?

Kelly Stankiewicz, MD, FAAD is a board-certified dermatologist with a passion for all things skin. After graduating from medical school at Indiana University School of Medicine in 2006, Dr. Stankiewicz completed her dermatology residency at the Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in 2010 and a clinical fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School and the Wellman Center for Photomedicine in lasers and cosmetic dermatology in 2011. She joins the SuperAge podcast to help us understand the world of dermatology. What should we be doing and what shouldn’t we be doing?

Dr. Stankiewicz recommends everyone to check in with a trusted doctor or esthetician to decide on your skin goals and needs. Categories of topical products that Dr. Stankiewicz recommends incorporating: daily sunscreen, antioxidants, exfoliants (retin-A, glycolic acid, etc.), growth/rejuvenating serums (peptides, smart molecules, etc.).

“Number 1: sunscreen. If there’s nothing else that you do, you must stay out of the sun. I hope everybody knows that by now.”

“The cosmeceutical industry is huge. And anybody can sell anything.”

“I would recommend to everybody to have a doctor or an esthetician who they truly trust to lead them in the right direction.”

“I find that overdoing it can make you look old. Too much plastic surgery, too much filler, makes you look old. When you’re chasing minor imperfections, that's when you can overdo it.”

Are Injectables the Future of Plastic Surgery?: Dr. Lara Devgan Jan 05, 2022

How can we optimize our skin without injectables? When are injectables a good idea? What about surgery? What lifestyle habits improve the way we look? What products should we use for hydration, texture, hyperpigmentation, or fine lines?

Dr. Lara Devgan is a board-certified, Yale-educated, Johns Hopkins Medical School-instructed, and Columbia/ New York Presbyterian Hospital-trained plastic & reconstructive surgeon. Her special interests are cosmetic surgery of the face and body, and reconstructive surgery for breast cancer, skin cancer, and facial injuries. She joins us on the podcast to discuss the different options for aesthetic enhancement from skincare to injectables to surgery.

What you will learn:
- How to optimize your skin without any injectables
- The lifestyle habits that improve the look of our skin
- The power of injectables
- When surgery is a good option for someone
- What society gets wrong about plastic surgery

“One of the best things that you can do for your own self esteem and for your own facial beauty is to allow certain flaws to continue to exist.”

“I would never want to create in the world this idea that anybody who is not interested in plastic surgery needs plastic surgery. I think the whole goal of plastic surgery as a field is to give people safe, medically appropriate options. Not to create the need to adhere to a certain kind of body image.”

“Why is it so impossible to consider that you can be a person of substance who also cares about how they present to the world?”

Being Deep, Light, and Mindful: The Unflappable Alex von Bidder Dec 22, 2021

Alex von Bidder is a yogi, meditation practitioner, and happens to have run one of the most famous restaurants in the world for over 40 years: The Four Seasons in New York City. He joins us to discuss how one can keep their head in a hurricane of chaos, being bribed for a table at the restaurant with stacks of cash, not having a table for Jackie O, immigrating to the US from Switzerland, and conquering his fears.

Alex was our first podcast guest and he has such a fascinating story that we felt inclined to run his episode again.

What you will learn in this episode:

⁃What the high-end restaurant industry is like

⁃What it was like for Alex to immigrate to the US

⁃How to conquer your fears to stay young

⁃The mission of “The Mankind Project”

⁃What one can learn about themselves through yoga and how it can help your mind

⁃What lucid dreaming is

“I always want to explore my fears. I always thought if I’m afraid of something, I at least have to get to know what the fear is about.”

“When you look around in your daily life, there are a lot of people that are seemingly alive physically but they are dead in their minds or in their emotions. The minute you put yourself in a situation where you actually have to worry about your life, you are alive. You are awake. That’s a really good experience and very important to cultivate that on some level.”

“Most people as they get older, whatever scares them, they try to avoid. And when you do that your life shrinks.”

“Frequent yoga practice really affects someone’s mind in a good way. You learn a lot about yourself and you learn a lot about your mind.”

“When I fall in life, when I make mistakes, when my business closed, I just get up again.”

The Positive Prescription: Dr. Samantha Boardman Dec 14, 2021

How can we shift our mindset from “What’s going wrong?” to “What’s going right?”? How can self-care become damaging to ourselves and our relationships? What is the importance of connection with others? Why is being mediocre at something new a good thing for us? How can we use imagination and play to create a more fulfilling life?

Dr. Samantha Boardman, a New York based positive psychiatrist, is committed to fixing what’s wrong and building what’s strong. Historically, psychiatry has focused on the diagnosis of disease and the treatment of individuals with mental illness. Positive Psychiatry takes a more expansive approach, focusing on the promotion of wellbeing and the creation of health.

Dr. Boardman received a B.A. from Harvard University, an M.D. from Cornell University Medical College, and completed a 4-year residency program in Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medical College. Now, she is a practicing positive psychiatrist, author, and published in a variety of scientific journals. She joins us on the podcast to share how to let go of the binary bias that things are either going good or they’re going bad, the importance of our relationships, why learning something new is a positive thing, how to get back to our more childlike, playful self, and more.

What you will learn in this episode:

How to reframe your mindset to a more positive one
The importance of connection and friendship outside of your romantic relationship
The power of being playful and imaginative
The benefit of learning something new and being mediocre at it

“We have this binary bias: things are either good or they’re bad. But how can we hold both together? I do think it’s possible for us to look for the strengths within our challenges. What are we learning here? Where are we finding some purpose? How are we connecting with other people? How are we adding value in some way?"

“As children, we’re trying this all the time. But as an adult, you do contract a bit, life gets narrower, and we’re much more afraid to try things that are new.”

“We can actually think more clearly and use our imagination much more effectively sometimes when we think through the lens of someone else.”

Career Re-Boot, You Are Stronger Than You Think You Are: Wendy Perrotti Dec 08, 2021

Many of us believe that what limits us are our external circumstances. However, we are often internally self-limited. When we push back on our limiting beliefs, we are capable of any and everything.

Wendy Perrotti, co-founder of Camp Reinvention, and David Stewart, founder of AGEIST, discuss these self-limiting beliefs and the possibilities that follow when we stop believing in them, where the attitude of fragility comes from when society is looking at someone in midlife and beyond, the importance of feeling useful, why we must search for our purpose rather than our passion, and much more.

What you will learn in this episode:
- Why we hold self-limiting beliefs, how to let go of them, and the possibilities that follow
- Why society views us as fragile
- Why we must continue to feel useful and helpful to others
- Why we need to look for our purpose, not our passion

“The burden that most people feel is ‘What if?’

“I’ve never seen anyone who truly succeeds forward. Every success is almost like an ending point. We fail forward. It’s everything that you try and fail and try and twerk and play with and experiment with that actually moves you forward to those successes that are like bam! Did that, check it off the list, and then we fail forward again.”

“All of those little things that you have lived through, that you have triumphed over, that you have merely survived, if you notice them for the win of it rather than for the pain of it, my god, by the time you hit our age, we feel completely invincible!”

Unlocking the Secret to Better Energy: Dr. Michael Breus, The Sleep Doctor Nov 30, 2021

Want to improve your health and boost energy? Align your life with your chronotype and body type to better understand when to fast, exercise, and sleep.

If we aren’t getting adequate sleep, a lot of physical and mental problems can follow from the obvious symptoms like fatigue and brain fog to more serious things like increased risk of dementia. What is an adequate amount of deep and REM sleep? What are the minimum and maximum amount of sleep we need each night? What should we do if we wake up in the middle of the night? What’s the deal with intermittent fasting and sleep? Should we take melatonin? We have had Dr. Michael Breus, The Sleep Doctor, on the SuperAge podcast twice and now he returns for a third time to answer these questions and more.

What you will learn in this episode:
- How our body types and sleep chronotypes can inform what sleep schedule we would thrive on
- Why it is so important to have a consistent sleep and wake routine
- The minimum amount of hours we need to sleep each night to function properly
- How much sleep is too much sleep
- What to do if you wake up in the middle of the night
- Melatonin’s role in sleep
- The importance of vitamin D

“When you wake up in the morning at a consistent time, let’s say it’s 6:15, when the sunlight hits your eyeball, you have special cells in your eyeball called melanopsin cells. These turn off the melatonin faucet in your brain which allows you to kind of clear the brain fog and wake up. The more consistent you are with it, the more your body can expect when to turn off the melatonin faucet. When it turns off the faucet in your head, it sets a timer for roughly 15 hours later to start melatonin.”

“You would actually be considered drunk behind the wheel if you get less than 5 1/2 hours just from a reaction time standpoint.”

“Sleep is a lot like love: the less you look for it, the more it shows up.”

“If there are folks out there who do like to get up around daybreak, there’s actually data to suggest that watching the sunrise, is very healthy for your circadian rhythms and very good for your eyeballs.”

Gut Health, Microbiome, and the Brain. Everything You Need to Know: Dr. Emeran Mayer Nov 17, 2021

“Gut-health” has become a buzzword in the wellness industry, but what exactly is our gut and how do we know if it’s healthy? What role does it play in our overall health? What is its connection to the brain? Do probiotics or fermented foods do any good for our gut? Does fasting impact the gut microbiome? What are 5 things we can do for a healthier gut?

Dr. Emeran Mayer, gastroenterologist, author, neuroscientist, and professor in the Departments of Medicine, Physiology and Psychiatry. At the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA joins us on the SuperAge podcast to discuss these questions and shares his expertise on the gut microbiome.

What you will learn:

What the “gut” and “microbiome” actually are
How the health of our gut impacts the health of everything else in our bodies
The guts connection to our brain
Whether probiotics and fermented foods really work for improving gut health
How fasting may impact the gut
5 things to do for a healthier gut

“I think what we have observed is that our modern lifestyle is not very conducive to a healthy gut because of what we eat and the whole standard American diet story that plays a significant role.”

“What happens in the gut does not stay in the gut. It goes through various signaling molecules to every part of the body.”

“If you’re stressed in your brain, or you have negative emotions in your brain, your gut knows it, because it gets these signals. And vice versa, if your gut is imbalanced, your brain knows it.”

HRT, Estrogen and Menopause, New Scientific Findings: Dr. Rebecca Dunsmoor-Su Nov 09, 2021

Much of what is thought about hormone replacement therapy is outdated and untrue. We do a deep dive into what is HRT, what are the benefits, and who should and should not be taking it. What happens during a women’s hormone journey from childhood to post-menopausal? How are hormones and a woman’s brain connected? What happens in a women’s body during menopause? What is hormone replacement therapy? Does HRT increase the risk of breast cancer? What is the relation between hormones and the cardiovascular system? How does menopause impact sleep?

Dr. Rebecca Dunsmoor-Su is the Medical Director of Menopause services at the Women’s Wellness and Gyn Specialties Clinic at Swedish Medical Center. She is also the Chief Medical Officer at Gennev. Dr. Dunsmoor-Su joins us on the SuperAge podcast for an information-dense episode all about menopause. She explains what happens leading up to and during menopause, some of the symptoms like weight gain, trouble sleeping, brain fog, and how they are addressed, how we can use hormone replacement therapy to improve symptoms and longevity for women post-menopause, and much more.

What you will learn in this episode:

What a woman’s body goes through in terms of hormones from childhood all the way through post-menopause
The impact of menopause on the brain
Everything we need to know about hormone replacement therapy and some of the myths around it
How menopause impacts sleep and what can help
How menopause impacts brain health and the cardiovascular system

“Estrogen replacement does not cause breast cancer. And I like to shout that from the rooftops. We have many studies that tell us that estrogen replacement does not cause breast cancer.”

“Women who start hormone replacement therapy within 5 years of their last period actually reduce their cardiovascular risk. They also slightly reduce their risk of colon cancer and they reduce their all cause mortality overtime.”

“When women are transitioning through menopause, we’re talking about 5-10 years of disrupted sleep. That’s a lot of impact to the brain.”

“Menopause is fine and functional if you’re going to live to be 65. You’ve got 10 years to survive menopause, you’re going to be okay. We live to 95, 100, 105! That’s a long time, that’s almost half your life without the hormones that sort of keep things going. So I think that we need to adjust.”

Change Your Life By Changing Your Brain: Dr. Patrick Porter, PhD: Neuroscience Expert and Founder of BrainTap® Nov 03, 2021

Why do we feel good in the mountains, looking at a fireplace or by the ocean? It is not the pretty landscapes, it has to do with their vibration frequencies. Neuroscience has now figured out how to use sound and light to produce the same brain effects to bring people to deep states of relaxation and inspiration.

Dr. Patrick Porter is a brain researcher, author, speaker, and founder of BrainTap. He, along with his team, are passionate about re-programming and optimizing our brains. He joins us on the SuperAge podcast to discuss how light, sound, and vibrations impact our brain function and overall state of being, why sleep continues to be so crucial for better health, the specific brain frequencies, and why we need time in all of them, and more.

What you will learn in this episode:
-The role of specific brain frequencies (example: beta, alpha, delta, theta)
-How to re-program your brain to perform better
-The brain’s role in sleep and sleep’s role in brain function
-Why people are drawn to places like the ocean, the mountains, or fires
-How BrainTap can help you relax, focus, or create

“If you’re not getting deep, level 4 sleep, I don’t care if you’re in bed for 10 hours. You’re not going feel good, you’re going to be tired, you’re going to have brain fog, because your brain is full of junk, it hasn’t cleansed itself.”

“A creative mindset is more energizing than a problem-solving mindset.”

“We’re supposed to be taking a nap next to the zebra and the gazelle but instead, most Americans will go out and get coffee, tea, or chocolate and stimulate instead of use their electrical system and take a nap.”

My 9 Month Fitness Transformation: Susan Guidi Oct 26, 2021

Is it too late to get healthy? How can someone take control of their physical and mental health no matter what age? What importance does community play in going through a complete life transformation? How do the thoughts in our heads manifest into reality? What is Susan’s healthy routine? Can women lift weights and not get bulky?

Want to learn more about our exclusive, life-altering Super Age Mastermind Seminar and Group? Click here: https://www.weareageist.com/master-mind-class/

In 2019, Susan Guidi was not putting herself first. She wasn’t taking care of herself physically, she wasn’t mindful about what she was eating, and she wasn’t thinking kind thoughts about herself. Now, Susan is a 64-year-old grandmother who is leg pressing 305 pounds. Beyond her impressive physical transformation, Susan has gained newfound confidence, motivation, and a palpable excitement for life. She wakes up grateful everyday and deeply believes that her possibilities are infinite. She hit the reset button on her life in her 60s and now she inspires other women, shows up for her loved ones in a new way, and, most importantly, shows up for herself. She did it with “no pills, no crazy cosmetic procedures, just determination, grit, and mindset!”

To give you an idea of where Susan started and what she is up to now, check out her workout and diet routine below.
Starting weight: 181 pounds at 5’5"
Lowest weight: 136 pounds
Maintained weight: 138 pounds
Her deficit macros for workout days were: 165g protein (P), 150g carbs (C), 45g fat (F)
Non-workout day deficit macros were: 165g P, 75g C, 50g F
Initial workout routine: Weight train 5x/week, Cardio 7x/week
Susan is currently in a “reverse” diet and exercise routine to build muscle.
Muscle building phase macros for workout days: 175g P, 135g C, 40g F
Non workout day macros for muscle building phase: 175g P, 90g C, 45g F
Muscle building phase workout routine: Cardio has been reduced to 20 mins a day 5x/week, weight training has been increased to 75-80 mins a day 5x/week

Example week of workouts during Susan’s muscle-building phase:
Monday - calves, quads, light hamstrings
Tuesday - chest, delts, light triceps
Wednesday - back, glutes, calves
Thursday- rest day (maybe some ab training)
Friday - hamstrings and glutes
Saturday - shoulders and arms
Sunday - rest day (maybe some ab training)
20 mins of cardio 5 days a week
Work on pull-ups and that is 5x/week

“Life is hard, so choose your hard.”

“I want to be vital for my grandbabies. I want them to say, ’This is my grandma, look what she can do! Can your grandma do that?’”

“How would you treat a baby? You would nurture them, love them, and feed them the most delicious things so they would be healthy. So I incorporated all of those things towards myself.”

“The cool thing is, once you love yourself, it’s so much easier to love other people.”

The Real Truth About Keto, Fasting and Longevity: Jim Howard Oct 19, 2021

What is the importance of biofeedback for longevity and improved physical performance? How can we accurately measure whether we are in ketosis? What is intermittent fasting? What impact does an 18:6 diet really have on our bodies? What is autophagy? How does fasting affect muscle mass? What are exogenous ketones? What does it mean to be metabolically flexible?

With all of the conflicting information surrounding ketosis, fasting, the impact of exogenous ketones, and nutrition as a whole, we wanted to get an expert on the SuperAge podcast to give us some clarity around the topic. Jim Howard, the President and CEO of Readout Health, has helped to create an innovative biofeedback tool, Biosense, used to measure your ketone levels throughout the day to help with goals for longevity, weight management, or peak performance. He, along with this team at Readout Health, wants to help us regain control of our health through proper nutrition and lower the rates of obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and more.

What you will learn in this episode:
- Why using a biofeedback device can promote a better understanding of our health and be used to promote longevity
- How to know whether you’re in ketosis
- The misconceptions around ketosis, health, and diet
- What intermittent fasting does for the body
- What autophagy is and how it impacts aging
- What Jim’s wellness non-negotiable are

“A good way to look at ketosis, I don’t mean the keto diet I’m talking about ketosis, is that it’s the other side of the metabolic switch, that’s where the damage is undone. We focus on the undoing of the damage that one has done to themselves.”

“If longevity and healthspan are curious and part of your future plans, I encourage it to be, knowing what your actual body is doing as you enter these zones is critical, as opposed to just guessing.”

“I was born in 1967 and in this one generation, in 1967 10% of us were obese. 54 years later it’s now at 40%. In one decade it will be 49%.”

The People We Have Become: Stacy London Oct 13, 2021

Start an entirely new venture way out of one's career experience at age 52? How audacious, but why not. Stacy shows us how to be an absolute beginner, to believe you can do it, and to thrive. Fashion editor, stylist, author, star of “What Not to Wear”, and now founder of State Of Menopause, Stacy continues to evolve and show that the only things that can hold you back are self-limiting beliefs and expectations. After going through menopause, Stacy realized how under-prepared women are for this time in their lives. She felt isolated, overwhelmed, and stuck. Now, she is determined to create a language and community for all women to feel confident and educated going into an inevitable phase in their life. She wants to talk about menopause and aging in a way that is productive and meaningful.

How are women unprepared for menopause? Why must we stop pining over who we used to be and stay present in who we are now? Why is it beneficial to have a variety of friends younger, older, and the same ages us? What do I do if I’m scared to pivot careers or try something new? How has technology changed how we live and our ability to be present? How do we let go of expectations?

“People don’t realize how much power they possess over the way they’re perceived.”

“Create a life that you don’t want to run away from.”

“As I’ve aged, my interest in style has kind of grown into an interest in wellness.”

“Why not change or pivot and do something at 52? What else should I be doing? Should I be sitting around, mourning that I don’t have the career that I had at 32? What would be the point of that? Where does the purpose lie in that?”

What you will learn in this episode:

How Stacy is reimagining how we approach menopause
Why we must stay present and stop pining over who we used to be
Why we should seek out a friend group of a variety of ages, older, younger, and the same as us
How to let go of self-limiting beliefs and try something new, no matter your age
How technology has changed our lives and what Stacy thinks social media will become in the future
Stacy and David’s life non-negotiables
Why letting go of expectations will change your life

The iconic Joan Lunden joins us this week to discuss these questions. She is inspiring, humble, and curious with a tremendous amount of wisdom to offer.

She didn’t know it then but she was changing the TV industry and work force for women. When she left GMA after being there for 20 years, her biggest problem was learning what opportunities to say no to. She had no intention of slowing down and now at 71 years old she is still ticking things off of her to-do list.

Why Do Marriages End?: Dr. Mark Goulston Sep 14, 2021

How can we become better listeners? Why do marriages end? What is the difference between feeling felt vs. feeling understood? What are the gender difference when it comes to emotional intimacy? How do you properly respond to your partner’s emotions? Why don’t we understand how powerful disappointment can be in our lives?

Dr. Mark Goulston, psychiatrist and author, joins us on the SuperAge podcast to share his insights on these questions. Dr. Mark Goulston dropped out of medical school twice due to depression. After a school counselor believed in him and gave him a second chance, he finished medical school and wanted pay forward what that counselor gave him for his future patients. That is exactly what he is doing with his current practice. From marriages to eating disorders to strained parent-child relationships to suicide, Dr. Goulston uses his empathetic personality and ability to listen to navigate these issues with his patients.

What you will learn in this episode:

How empathy and the ability to listen can help strengthen our relationships
Why some marriages end
Why strong personalities may have a more difficult time with emotionally intimate relationships, and how to overcome that
The power of feeling felt vs. feeling understood
How to respond to your partner’s emotions

“Marriages don’t end because we stop loving each other, but because we stop feeling liked by each other.”

“Alpha energy is great for success. It’s not good for closeness. You know, it’s good to have alpha energy. You can build something, you can build a business, you can grow it, you can sell it, you can do whatever, but it’s not that good for emotional intimacy.”

“One of the reasons women will say ‘Don’t give me advice or solutions’ is because when they’re sharing something, they want to just feel less alone in the feeling, they want to feel felt by you, because if they feel felt by you, their oxytocin goes up, their cortisol goes down, their blood flow goes up to their brain, and then they can give themselves the advice they need.”

Is Instagram A Drug?: Dr. Anna Lembke Aug 24, 2021

What is dopamine? Can social media use become an addiction? How is social media impacting our brains and ability to feel pleasure or pain? How can we break the addictive cycle of our digital devices?

Dr. Anna Lembke, psychiatrist and author of the new book, “Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance In the Age of Indulgence”, joins us this week to answer these questions. She has done extensive work to study and treat a new phenomenon: social media addiction. As Dr. Lembke explains, social media use has become compulsive and addictive. It is a way to comfort ourselves by completely distracting our minds. Interestingly, by comforting and distracting ourselves with devices, we are actually causing ourselves more pain and suffering. How? Dr. Lembke shares her perspective on the topic.

What you will learn in this episode:

What happens in our brains when we use our devices
How our dependency on our devices are doing more harm than good
How we can break the addictive cycle
Why Dr. Lembke feels more connected and reachable without a smart phone

“Boredom is a really scary emotion because all of a sudden we are confronted with questions about the deeper meaning and purpose of our lives. And those are things that we need to be confronted with.”

“Instagram is a drug. It releases dopamine in the reward pathway exactly like other reinforcing addicting drugs that people have been taking.”

“What we need to do now is intentionally make our lives less convenient. Intentionally seek out painful, arduous, challenging things.”

“We’ve become so Inundated with pleasure and so insulated from pain that we hardly even know anymore what it is to experience pain and distress. And most of our suffering comes from excessive reward”

“We live in this high reward, drug-ified eco system that’s made us all vulnerable to the problem of over consumption and in some cases addiction”

Homeopathy, What Is It and How Does It Work?: Christophe Merville, D.Pharm Aug 18, 2021

What is homeopathy? How can homeopathy compliment or, in some cases, replace traditional pharmaceuticals? How can we use homeopathy to treat things like allergies, stress, sore muscles, and more? What about homeopathy makes it so individual and specific for each person? How can you find the right homeopathic practitioner? What are the limits of homeopathy?

Christophe Merville joins us this week on the SuperAge podcast to share his insights on homeopathy. Christophe is a pharmacist with training in homeopathy. As he explains, in France, the relationship that a pharmacist has with their patients is quite intimate when compared to how it is in the US. Pharmacists in France also incorporate homeopathy into their treatment plans. So what exactly is homeopathy? Christophe breaks it down for us in this episode.

What you will learn in this episode:

Homeopathy 101
When one might want to use homeopathic treatments instead of pharmaceuticals
Why the dosages of homeopathic treatments are as low as they are
How to find the right practitioner for you

How A 50-Year-Old TV Anchor Gets It Done: Tamsen Fadal Aug 10, 2021

What is it like to be a 50-year-old woman on television? What are the different societal expectations for men and women when it comes to aging? Botox, fillers, getting, "work" done? How can we have more meaningful conversations with people? How should we think about retirement?

Tamsen Fadal joins us this week on the SuperAge podcast to discuss these questions. Tamsen is a journalist, news anchor, author, speaker, and podcast host. She seems to do it all and has no intention of slowing down anytime soon. She recently turned 50 and has the unique perspective of being a women on television in her midlife. She shares with us some of the challenges that come along with her profession, why she was proud when she turned 50, her thoughts on appearance as we age, how she has more meaningful conversations with people as she has matured, and her thoughts on retirement. David and Tamsen also share some of the current health hacks that they are loving.

What you will learn in this episode:

What it is like to be a woman in her midlife on television
Why you should be proud to age rather than just accepting it
How to have more meaningful conversations with people
Why we need to reframe our view on retirement
The hacks that Tamsen and David use to wind down at night and sleep better

“Literally for 15 years I was petrified that I was going to wake up and that was going to be the day that I was irrelevant.”

“I turned fifty and I went, It’s like I ripped open my shirt and had superwoman written on my chest. I went, ‘Hey, I’m 50 years old and I’m still on television!’”

“When I turned 50 I didn’t do it hiding behind a curtain trying to pretend I was still 45… I was bragging about it.”

“There are so many parts of you that you have to recognize and that you have to groom that you may not have paid attention to because you had the one thing that was important.”

“I really think, if you’re moving, you’re grooving. Motion is lotion.”

Family History of Cancer? This Is What We Can Do: Dr. Donese Worden Jul 27, 2021

What are the new tests for better and earlier cancer prevention? If we catch cancer cells early, is there a better chance of successful treatment? How does diet impact cancer? How do we properly get our bodies into ketosis? How does stress impact cancer?

Dr. Donese Worden, with over 18 years of experience, joins us for the second time on the SuperAge podcast to discuss cancer screening, prevention, and diet’s role. Dr. Worden has worked with a number of cancer patients and today she is sharing with us the tests that she is giving her patients to detect cancer early, how diet and stress are major players in cancer growth, and everything we need to know about the keto diet and getting our bodies into ketosis.

What you will learn in this episode:

What to eat to reduce your risk of feeding cancer cells
How to get your body into ketosis, and why you might want to be in it

“Cancer can’t use ketones as fuel but it can use sugar.”

“Most cancers caught early, we can do something with. It’s when they’re caught after the fact they’ve metastasized, the tumor’s too large, that’s when we’re in real trouble.”

“Ketones are a cleaner fuel than sugar. The brain loves it, it’s clean, and it helps us from a cancer standpoint which is the topic of our show today.”

“We have to take care of ourselves. You can’t just hope for the best because, as you know, 1 in 2 men will have cancer in their lifetime. 1 in 2.5 women now.”

Tests that Dr. Worden mentioned in this episode:

-CEA test

What Flatlining Taught Me: Will Henshall, Founder of Londonbeat Jul 21, 2021

This week on the SuperAge podcast, we are joined by the inspiring Will Henshall. When Will flatlined in 2018, he had a 2% chance of living, and a 1% chance of surviving without any cognitive impairment. He defied the odds and is here to share his story of how he sees the world differently now.

Songwriter, entrepreneur, inventor, photographer, audio engineer, and curious human, Will knows reinvention well. In this episode, he shares his fascinating story of working in the music industry in London where he was the founder of Londonbeat with 5 huge hits, leading a tech team in San Francisco, becoming a professional photographer, and circling back to the music industry in Los Angeles to create music that helps us focus. Will also shares exactly what he learned from flatlining for 20 minutes, essentially dying, and how he lives his life differently now. “We are the physical manifestions of spirit, we are all connected. Just like aspen trees, what you see above ground is only a part of what we are, it is the roots that connect us that are the important part."

What you will learn from this episode:

What flatlining taught Will about the interconnectedness of our lives
Why we are the first generation to be living in a new way
How to reinvent yourself when something isn’t working for you
Why community is so important to finding our purpose and staying productive
It’s not over until it's over

“You’ve got to lean in and be of service and then you will find that you’ll get so much back in terms of opportunities and friendship and community and the big word: Brotherhood.”

“I didn’t have a near death experience, I actually had a death experience. I flatlined for 20 minutes. And what happened was that as I recovered consciousness, I was in a coma for many, many days, my consciousness, my awareness of being in a body started to come back and it was like being in a really groggy dream.”

“Brotherhood is very, very important. We make better decisions when we know each other.”

“We are as a generation not like old people. We are stylish, in good shape, and we still have considerable amount of purchasing power and we represent well.”

Never Think About Music The Same Again: Freddie Ravel and Life In Tune Jul 14, 2021

“I think music is a multitasking power tool to live a better life.”

Freddie Ravel, Grammy-nominated performer working with Madonna, Prince, Santana, Earth Wind and Fire, is using music to improve human potential. At his “Life In Tune” events, he uses the basic foundation of music: rhythm, melody, harmony, and score, to go beyond traditional leadership and self-help talks by using music to tap into our emotions. Having worked with musicians like Madonna, Carlos Santana, Prince, Sergio Mendes, and more, Freddie has acquired a unique perspective of how we can use music to enhance our lives, whether we think we are “musical” or not.

What you will learn in this episode:

How we all have an internal rhythm that syncs to music
How we can use music to better fulfill the roles we play in our lives
How certain music can elevate our mood or relax us
How to drop the ego and become more musical

“I believe that every person out there has a drummer inside of them with a heart beat. I believe that we all have forms of music in us. It’s just that most of us don’t think about it that way. We kind of get lost in the echo chamber of the news or the internet.”

“Stand in front of the mirror and make a joyful noise, and don’t judge yourself!”

Mobility Will Save Your Life, Encore Episode: Dr. Vonda Wright Jul 07, 2021

This week's SuperAge podcast episode is an encore episode with fan favorite guest, Dr. Vonda Wright. In this episode, Dr. Vonda Wright shares her insights on everything from the effects of exercise after 40, 50, and 60 to the benefits of foam rolling for recovery and performance and hormones. She wants to be healthy, active, vital, and joyful for the rest of her lifespan, and she wants to help others in doing the same by bridging the gap between their health span and lifespan. Fortunately, her research and experience as an orthopedic surgeon, speaker, and author has given her the knowledge to do just that.

“What gets me up in the morning, David, is the knowledge that by saving your mobility, I’m going to save your life because there’s not one pill besides exercise and smart nutrition that effects all the diseases that we are commonly plagued with. So that’s what gets my out of bed everyday as an orthopod and an author and a speaker.”

“We know that 68% of people do not do any kind of mobility any day of the week. And that’s why about 60% of people in this country can qualify as obese and 30% of our children are obese. And 17% of our children, that we raised, now have diabetes. We need to do something about this now.“

The Longevity Anti-Cancer Diet, You Are Not Your DNA: Dr. Donese Worden Jun 23, 2021

Dr. Donese Worden is a holistic medicine practitioner who is bridging the gap between conventional medicine and alternative medicine by taking a holistic approach to health. Her philosophy is simple: look at the whole person, body, mind, and spirit, and create a personalized wellness plan to improve their state of being, lengthen their healthspan, and increase overall performance. Dr. Worden joins us this week to discuss her health philosophy, how she is disrupting and challenging our current healthcare system, and the top things she recommends everyone does for optimal wellbeing.

What spirituality means to Dr. Worden and how we can alll benefit from it

“What happened to looking at the person as a whole? It’s always connected. The knee bone is connected to the shin bone and mind, body, and spirit. If you’re not addressing all three of those, you can only put on bandaids and all you’re doing is turning off or cutting off the fire alarm and you’re leaving the fire still going. This is bad medicine.”

“Your doctors work for you. You are paying us for our medical education. We work for you and you have the right to your doctors.”

"Inflammation is the base root of most chronic degenerative diseases, David.”

“We want to live to 120 or beyond in good health, that’s the key. I don’t wait to wait until there’s a problem. I want to see what I can see and make the changes that we need to make.”

“You want to age yourself? Don’t eat well, don’t exercise, and stress.”

Measurable Physical and Emotional Benefits From Music: Barry Goldstein, Grammy Award Winner Jun 16, 2021

How can we use music to change our physical and mental states? Is there measured evidence to show that music can heal and transform our lives? What music should we listen to before bed to promote a more consistent circadian rhythm? What is the formula behind music tempo and composition for optimal meditative results?
Be sure to listen through to the 59:00 mark to hear Barry play something special for us, live.

Barry Goldstein, composer and Grammy award winning producer, has been connected to music ever since he can remember. After years of producing pop music, Barry began to burnout; he needed a tool to help heal his mental health. His burnout led him to explore the healing powers of music and he re-established his relationship to making music. He was now making transformational music beyond art and entertainment. He discovered that this intentional, healing music was putting him in a meditative state, lowering his heart rate, positively impacting his brain waves, and shifting his mood. Now, Barry shares his insights on how music can heal through his own composition and through his book, “The Secret Language of the Heart.”

What you will learn in this episode:

The science behind healing music
Why not all music is created equally
What music to listen to in the morning, in the afternoon, and before bed
Barry’s personal and professional struggles with creating music
How to let go of obstacles that are holding us back

“In the midst of this burnout, I knew that I wanted to come back to my own heart and my love for music.”

“Your internal rhythm of your heart has the ability to synchronize with the external rhythm within music.”

“I am connecting to something beyond myself when I’m composing.”

“Tap into the energy of something that you can claim in this moment. What have you been holding yourself back with?”

How Making One Small Decision Will Lead To Claiming Your Future: David Richman Jun 09, 2021

How do we pull ourselves out of a dark place and into a healthier, happier life? Why do we feel guilty when we take care of ourselves? How can we break the habit of comparing ourselves to others? What is the best way to cope with emotional trauma?

At the age of 39, David Richman reached arguably the lowest point in his life. He was in an abusive relationship with an alcoholic, he was overweight, he was a smoker, and his health was failing. He was struggling. One day, he looked in the mirror and asked himself “What do you want to be?” His answer? “I want to be an athlete.” 18 years later, David is a motivational speaker, author, trainer, and consultant. He’s done more Iron Man races than you can count on two hands and he is just getting started. David joins us on the SuperAge podcast to talk about his journey from darkness to health and happiness, the wisdom and stories that he offers in his books, how to cope with trauma, and more.

What you will learn in this episode:

How to pick yourself up out of a dark place
How to re-frame your mindset to one of an athlete
How living for yourself allows you to show up for your loved ones
How to work towards the best version of you
How to stop comparing yourself to others and how comparison will get in your way
How to cope with trauma

“You can’t be a dead hero. So you’ve got to take care of yourself first before you can take care of others.”

“Just be the best you. Don’t try to be the best them.”

“If you do take one more step, that’s further than you’ve ever pushed yourself in your life.”

“I want to be the guy that always believes that my best days are ahead of me. So if I want to be an athlete, I’m going to keep being athletic. If I want to go start a business, I’m going to do it. If I want to write more books, I’m going to do it.”

Re-Imagine The Rest Of Your Life: Chip Conley Jun 02, 2021

"Wisdom is not taught, it is shared.” How do we share what we have learned so that we all can grow together? To be happy at this stage of life we need purpose, wellness and community. This is the essence of the Modern Elder Academy. We ask what does education look like during midlife and beyond? How important is community for longevity? How do I build a community of likeminded people? What should I have in my life to maintain purpose? What’s the difference between our healthspan and our lifespan?

Chip Conley of The Modern Elder Academy joins us on the SuperAge podcast to discuss these questions and more. Chip discusses how he is reimagining education for those in midlife and beyond, disrupting what it means to retire, and supporting his community in Baja, Mexico through regenerative farming.

What you will learn in this episode:

Why we should continue to learn and grow no matter our age
Why community is the key to longevity, and how to build your own community of positive people
How to discern what in our life is no longer serving us
What the difference between our lifespan and our healthspan is, and why it’s important to distinguish the two
What 3 things we all need in our lives to maintain purpose, especially if we are considering retiring
How we can reimagine and disrupt education after midlife and senior living facilities

“Where’s our emotional insurance? When we have a rainy week or year in our personal life or in our work life, who are the people we can count on? And guess what man, we are really bad at this. Women are so much better.”

“I don’t think a lot of us are clear on how stuck we are because of old mindsets and old identities and old ways of being that aren’t serving us anymore.”

Dr. Michael Breus, “The Sleep Doctor”, joins us for the second time on the SuperAge podcast to dive further into these questions. No matter what kind of sleeper you are or what kind of lifestyle you live, Dr. Breus breaks down some key things that we should be focusing on to optimize our sleep.

Dr. Rudolph Tanzi: Proven Brain Protective Supplements For Longer Life May 19, 2021

The world-famous Harvard brain scientist and a musician who plays with Joe Perry and Jonny Depp, tells us what is the latest in brain research, and the very promising future for Alzheimer's prevention and treatment. We are getting very close...
Can we detect neurodegenerative diseases, like Alzheimer’s disease, before irreversible damage is done? What supplements can we take to get ahead of neurodegenerative diseases? What role does loneliness play in brain health? Is there a connection between our microbiome and our brain?

Dr. Rudolph Tanzi joins us on the SuperAge podcast to dive into these questions and more. Dr. Tanzi is the Vice-Chair of Neurology, Director of the Genetics and Aging Research Unit, Co-Director of the Henry and Allison McCance Center for Brain Health, and Co-Director of the MassGeneral Institute for Neurodegenerative Disease at Massachusetts General Hospital. He also serves as the Joseph P. and Rose F. Kennedy Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School.

Dr. Tanzi discovered the first Alzheimer’s disease (AD) gene and co-discovered the two other early-onset familial AD genes. His team was the first to use human stem cells to create three-dimensional cell culture organoids of AD, dubbed “Alzheimer’s-in-a-Dish”. This model was the first to recapitulate all three key AD pathological hallmarks in vitro, and first to definitively show that amyloid plaques directly cause neurofibrillary tangles. The 3-D model also made drug screening for AD faster and more cost-effective. Using this system, Dr. Tanzi has developed several novel therapies for Alzheimer’s disease.

What you will learn in this episode:

How neurons regenerate lost information after damage from a neurodegenerative disease
The importance of lifestyle for promoting brain health
How we are inducing neurogenesis in mice, and what it means for us
The supplements that seem to mimic the benefits of exercise to improve brain function
What supplements Dr. Tanzi takes and why
What we are learning from Dr. Tanzi’s Alzheimer’s-in-a-Dish research
How we may be able to detect declining brain health before it leads to neurodegenerative diseases
The danger of loneliness and lack of social interaction
What to eat for gut health and how your gut health impacts your brain health
How Dr. Tanzi is using glasses with light and sound therapy to promote deeper sleep

“If you’re going to take fish oil for omega-3s, make sure you’re paying a lot of money for it and it’s triple distilled, just to get those metals out.”

“I feel like I’m firing out all cylinders. It not only helps with brain health but a healthy brain helps with mental vitality, as well.

“That’s how we are going to stop Alzheimer’s disease. Early detection, early intervention.”

“The brain suffers from not being social and from not having social interaction. Loneliness, meaning being alone, and stress about it, increases risk for Alzheimer’s two fold.”

“The brain actually depends on the gut and the bacteria there and the metabolites they make from your food to control everything from mood, to the amount of amyloid you make or break or get rid of, to neuro-inflammation.”

How sleep changes as we get older
Everything you need to know about melatonin

“We know that our physical restoration occurs while we sleep. We know that your mental restoration occurs while we sleep. We know that that’s when we move information from our short term memory to our long term memory. So, there’s a whole host of physiological processes, cognitive processes, and quite frankly, emotional processes that occur when we sleep.”

“You lose a third of your reaction time almost immediately by losing roughly an hours worth of sleep a night.”

“When you ain’t sleeping, your body is holding onto fat and holding onto food because it thinks it’s a resource that it needs.”

“If people get one thing from this whole talk: wake up at the same time everyday, including the weekends.”

How having a community helps build resilience in the most difficult times

“My brain at 40 years old, David, was that of a 3 year old kid. I was not able to speak, not able to add, write, nothing. Nothing was coming together. I had to relearn everything all over again.”

“I knew inside, David, that I was going to walk. I just believed in my mantra of “I can, I shall, I will.’”

“I fought for my daughters. I really, really did. I fight for them everyday. Because I still have effects of the stroke, of course, but every time I got to pull through because I have these two little girls who are counting on me.”

“Don’t believe in the impossible. Believe: I am possible.”

Sean’s advice for any caregiver of a stroke or brain trauma survivor: “Imagine you’re a rock and a wave’s coming to hit you. Be that rock for the wave to hit you. Don’t move with that wave. Stay stationary on that sand and on that beach. Be the biggest rock that you can and create the space for your loved one to come at you.”

David Stewart: How To Change Your Reality Apr 28, 2021

How can language change our perception of ourselves and improve our self esteem? How do we move towards a society that views anyone in their 50s and beyond as fully capable? How can we reduce stress and prevent damage to our epigenome?

This week on the SuperAge podcast David is solo to dive into these questions.

“A lot of us say to ourselves: “I need to get fit. I need to get a little stronger. I need to lose a little weight.” Let’s hold that thought for a second and let’s reframe that with a different word. Let’s use the word ‘athlete’. Let’s say to ourselves: ‘I am an athlete.’ How does that feel? It feels really different, doesn’t it?”

“Let’s raise the bar. We have this capacity.”

“I have actual, real data about how my parasympathetic nervous system and its stress load is decreased by listening to this kind of music.”

John Foley: Gratitude is a Superpower. Give, Learn, Grow. Apr 21, 2021

As a former lead solo pilot for the Blue Angels, John Foley knows how to inspire greatness, and the power of gratitude. His motto is Glad To Be Here. No matter what the circumstance be thankful. John joins us on the SuperAge podcast to discuss shifting our perspective to one of gratitude keeps us open to creative solutions in all situations, how we can strengthen our relationships through trust, and why we need to learn how to compartmentalize to increase our focus, and at the same how to then open one’s vision wide to take in all one’s feelings and perceptions.

During their demonstrations and in a synchronized formation, the Blue Angel planes get to about 500 MPH at only 18 inches apart from one another. There is no room for mistakes and trusting your teammates is imperative. Now, John is a top rated leadership keynote speaker who spreads the power of gratitude and shares how to be a high performer to his audiences.

“You can be kind, you can be generous, and at the same time push the limits.”

“I find trust is the key to high performance execution.”

“I think that’s what’s really powerful in life. When you can have these verbal agreements that say “I’ll be there for you. I’ll do whatever it takes.” These are powerful commitments.”

“To be able to turn your mind off is just as important as it is to turn your mind on, especially when you want to rest, when you want to recover at night.”

Jill Angelo: Women's Health Revolution Apr 14, 2021

How do we effectively start the conversation about menopause? How do we take a holistic approach to menopause and healthcare in general? What impact has the pandemic had on preventative care? Is telemedicine the answer?

Jill Angelo joins us on the SuperAge podcast to discuss these questions and share how her company, Gennev, is offering a more rounded approach to healthcare for women.

Gennev is a virtual clinic for women 40+. Their doctors, health coaches, wellness products and community specialize in supporting women through their perimenopause and post menopause years. Gennev’s approach is a holistic one — they take into account the physical as well as the emotional to provide the best treatment strategy.

“You don’t need to suffer. And most women kind of suffer in silence.”

“Your general healthcare needs to consider body and mind. And I think you’re going to start to see a melding of the two coming together versus “I go to my therapist for my emotional wellbeing, or my counselor, or whomever. And I go to my primary care physician for everything physical.”

“In our care model, we give you access to a doctor and to a health coach and also to a therapist if you need that as well. They’re your care team.”

“Any group of people that’s going through transition needs community.”

“‘Gen’ is ‘generation’ and ‘nev’ in old Irish means “radiant”. So we really see ourselves as supporting this next generation of women through the most radiant years of their lives.”

Dr. Gil Blander: Food Is Your Medicine Apr 07, 2021

How can we optimize our health? How do we add years to our life and life to our years? How do we tackle our own personal health hurdles? Dr. Gil Blander joins us to share his thoughts on these very questions.

At a young age Dr. Gil Blander was fascinated with aging and wanted to live a long time. This led him to studying biology and founding InsideTracker, the company that runs DNA, blood, and health tests to provide an actionable and effective strategy personalized for each client. From exercise to nutrition to lifestyle, Dr. Gil Blander designed InsideTracker to take a holistic approach to our health.

Dr. Gil discusses how InsideTracker works and why it is valuable for anyone who wants to improve their health and longevity.

“From a very early age I was fascinated by the aging process. I wanted to live forever.”

“Everyone can improve. You just need to understand what you can improve and what are the issues that you have.”

Paul Hynek: Medically Verified Age Reversal Is Happening Now Mar 31, 2021

Paul was in the first medically verifiable trial making people younger. How does it work? Why is this important? Is it even the right thing to do? Why is he doing it again?

Is it possible for us to prevent the breakdown of our physical bodies? What is standing in our way from increasing our lifespan? Do we owe it to future generations to take radical steps to live longer?
The TRIIM (Thymus Regeneration, Immunorestoration, and Insulin Mitigation) trial is literally making people younger. This trial has proven that we can regrow the thymus with human growth hormones and the help of metformin. Why is this important? Our thymus is the master gland of immunity. As we age, so does our thymus which leads to the collapse of our immune system and increases our risk of death. Being able to regrow the thymus means that we can add years to our lifespan, like Paul Hynek did.
Paul Hynek is the son of J. Allen Hynek, American astronomer and UFO researcher, and professor at Pepperdine. Paul's personal lifespan was increased by 4 years after participating in the groundbreaking TRIIM trial. This was the first time in history that someone was tested by Steve Horvath's epigenetic clock test and actually tested younger than they previously had. Paul shares with us the revolutionary results that the TRIIM trial had, what this means for the future of humanity, and what it means to be a transhumanist. This trial is now accessible to the public through Intervene Immune. You can learn more about the TRIIM trial and Intervene Immune at http://interveneimmune.com/interveneimmune.com/
“If people 100 years ago had said, “You know what? Lifespan of 40-50 years thats enough. We don’t need to do anything more”, you and I wouldn’t be here now. So, we owe it to future generations to do what we can to extend healthy life span.”
“Why wait for things to go wrong to restore them? Get ahead of all of these diseases and increase lifespan.”
“We’re not talking about 30 extra years in a wheelchair. We’re talking about extra time of robust health.”

Jolie Glassman: Transforming Lives Mar 24, 2021

What is holding you back from committing to yourself? What would it take for you to become your own hero? Does trying something out of your comfort zone intimidate you?

Jolie Glassman, the owner and operator of South Beach Boxing, coaches the young and old through psychological blocks with the help of intense boxing training. Since opening her gym in 1998, Jolie has trained countless students and athletes. She has a palpable passion for helping her students feel their best, physically and mentally. From building integrity to committing to something greater than themselves, Jolie’s students are coached like athletes and taught that if you want to be strong, you have to do what strong does. While many of her students come to her to lose a couple pounds or to build more muscle, they leave her gym with much more -- mental and physical strength, drive, and respect for themselves. Jolie discusses how she helps her students commit to themselves, how to overcome a self doubt mindset, and what makes us strong.

“When you’re confident and you’re strong, you can figure anything out. So that’s what I teach: strength and confidence.”

“‘I can’t’ is not an option. ‘I quit’ is not an option. We are chasing mastery so we are relentless in the pursuit of getting better.”

“People think strong is not feeling the emotion. It’s the opposite. It’s feeling it and going through it.”

Nutrition Scientist Ashley Reaver: What To Eat and When To Eat It Mar 16, 2021

What is the proper way to fuel our bodies? Should we be following a specific diet? What foods do I need to eat before a workout? What’s the deal with MCTs, being in ketosis, and intermittent fasting?

The list of diet “religions” go on and on from paleo, vegan, keto, low fat, macro counting and with so much contradictory and controversial information about food, we wanted to get to the bottom of how we should really be fueling our bodies. Ashley Reaver, InsideTracker’s in-house nutritionist, walks us through what protein, carbohydrates, and fats are, and what benefits they have for our body, how to increase muscle mass while decreasing body fat, the fallacies surrounding macronutrients, and more.

“One of my favorite things is to work with people and I encourage them to eat more for and the feedback: “I have so much more energy!” It’s funny when you feed your body, how you can feel. Being constantly tired is not normal.”

“There is no reason to eat a 16g fat diet. Please do not do it, it is not worth it. You will still look great in your bikini at 60 grams of fat and you’ll feel a heck of a lot better.”

“Coconut oil itself is actually higher in saturated fats than butter is. Yes, it’s from a plant. But your body is going to use that saturated fat the exact same way as it would if you were putting lard on things. It’s pretty equivalent too lard, truthfully.”

“Just like you and I work better on a schedule, if we’re waking up at the same time, roughly eating at the same time, going to bed at the same time, we feel our best, your digestive tract also deserves the same time of schedule and rest and your body likes a schedule and your digestive tract certainly fits into that as well.”

The Champion Mindset: Hold nothing back when it counts. Mar 09, 2021

How do you become a champion? What is the champion mind versus the human mind? What is the friction in your life that is holding you back from moving forward and achieving the unfathomable?

At the age of 11, Dr. Jeff Spencer wrote a contract with himself committing to becoming an Olympian. At the age of 21 he fulfilled that promise and became an Olympic cyclist. Now a sports chiropractor and elite performance coach, Dr. Jeff Spencer builds champions. He helps athletes, entrepreneurs, and high achieving individuals achieve the impossible.

“We have two oppositional mentalities that make up our human nature that are at war with each other 24 hours a day. One wants to talk us out of it… “What do I stand to lose here?” That’s our human mind. The champion's mind: “What do I stand to gain here?”

What began as an inspiring and motivating podcast about mindset and pushing past limitations, turned into a moving discussion about Dr. Jeff’s experience becoming a father to his adopted daughter, the lessons he has learned through fatherhood, and the deep fulfillment he finds from witnessing her successes. His biggest challenge and his greatest victory was his daughter. As he says, the Olympics, the 9 Tour de France's, coaching the best athletes in the world, only prepared him for the biggest challenge of his life: fatherhood. He approached this stage of his life with a “leave nothing on the field’ mindset to save his daughter's life. Dr. Jeff Spencer truly embodies what it means to tap into your highest potential and achieve miracles.

Dr. Kien Vuu: BioEnergetic Model of Health Mar 02, 2021

Overweight, diabetic, hypertensive, on prescription meds, and starting to see the early signs of fatal chronic diseases at only 39 years old, Dr. Kien Vuu asked himself, “How did I get here? And how do I get out of here?” Working as an interventional radiologist and at the top of his professional game, he knew he had to take a 360 degree, holistic approach to healing his quickly declining health.

“I told myself that I chose diabetes, I chose hypertension by the choices that I had made in life and that to me was very empowering because if I could choose those symptoms, then I could choose a way out of it.”

Dr. Kien Vuu’s bioenergetic model of health focuses on proper nutrition full of low glycemic foods, personal development to heal emotional traumas, connection to your community, and regenerative medicine. Following these lifestyle changes, Dr. Vuu had reversed all of his chronic conditions and came off of his prescription medications in just 4-6 months. He now works to empower others who have found their health in a similar downward decline by offering a functional wellness plan of small lifestyle changes that will return huge reward and make them stronger, fitter, faster, and happier than ever before.

Dr. Vonda Wright: Mobility Will Save Your Life Feb 23, 2021

How do we live to our potential today? What role does movement and exercise have, and how much is enough? How does hormone replacement help for women? What about HRT for men? Dr. Vonda Wright shares her insights on everything from the effects of exercise after 40, 50, and 60 to the benefits of foam rolling for recovery and performance and hormones. She wants to be healthy, active, vital, and joyful for the rest of her lifespan, and she wants to help others in doing the same by bridging the gap between their health span and lifespan. Fortunately, her research and experience as an orthopedic surgeon, speaker, and author has given her the knowledge to do just that.

“What gets me up in the morning, David, is the knowledge that by saving your mobility, I’m going to save your life because there’s not one pill besides exercise and smart nutrition that effects all the diseases that we are commonly plagued with. So that’s what gets my out of bed everyday as an orthopod and an author and a speaker.”

“We know that 68% of people do not do any kind of mobility any day of the week. And that’s why about 60% of people in this country can qualify as obese and 30% of our children are obese. And 17% of our children, that we raised, now have diabetes. We need to do something about this now.“

Dr. Tracy Packiam Alloway: Claiming Your Greatness Feb 17, 2021

Why is it easier for younger people to put themselves out into the world? Do you find it challenging to claim your strengths? Do you diminish yourself to make others comfortable? Dr. Tracy Packiam Alloway has enlisted her knowledge and experience as an award-winning psychologist and author of 14 books to tackle these very issues. She discusses how simply changing the words we speak about ourselves can have a powerful effect on how we view ourselves, how to claim your individual strengths (and why doing so will change how you are perceived by others), how we can connect in a meaningful way through social media, and how narcissism can be a positive “My view is that narcissism is very helpful and it can be very hurtful. Like any aspect of personality, there’s extremes on either side. And so people who are narcissistic can take their ideas and make it happen and be a good leader, but there can be a point of too much as well.”

Alisa Volkman: Making Life Connected Feb 10, 2021

The founder of Nerve, Babble and now The Swell, Alisa Volkman is confronting the question of why do we feel so awkward at an age when we should be feeling more grown? She is on a mission to reimagine the language and community surrounding midlife. Her newest venture, The Swell, was just launched when she was confronted with the unfortunate discrepancy between how the marketplace spoke to and about midlife and what midlife actually felt like. We discuss how do we engage in lifelong learning? Build robust community? How do we feel more of ourselves as we are now living longer and healthier than ever.

“The beauty of hitting this life stage is, you have acquired a fair amount of experience and wisdom along the way and so you have the advantage of wisdom and disadvantage of less time left. And the tension between those two things creates a lot of new urgency and discipline.”

Finding Purpose: David’s Journey Oct 06, 2020

How to overcome the inner voices that say we can’t or shouldn’t try. SuperAge host David Stewart openly describes his journey, complete with the fears, failures and learning curves, and looks at how we can all find our unique purpose. In his mid-fifties, he left a successful career as a photographer to become the founder of AGEIST. Our brutal inner critics combined with the negative messaging of the media can make life transitions like this feel impossible and David, too, had to overcome this. He had found himself in a “metaphorical wilderness” as his long-time industry collapsed and he searched for his purpose in life.

“For me, part of purpose is having a sense of agency in the world…and having a community. And, in my case, we created it and we brought like-minded people together, which is — I can’t tell you how orders-of-magnitude richer and more fulfilling my life is now than when I was a photographer.”
