    Unlocking Optimal Health Through Your Genetic Code: Healing from Veganism, Chronic Pain & Stressors - Chris Masterjohn : 1090

    Play Episode Listen Later Sep 21, 2023 78:36


    Today, we welcome back a guest from the early days of this podcast, fellow former vegan and esteemed researcher and scientist, Chris Masterjohn. Chris Masterjohn earned his PhD in Nutritional Sciences from the University of Connecticut, and has worked as a postdoctoral research associate and Assistant Professor of Health and Nutrition Sciences. In 2016, he transitioned to entrepreneurship. These days, Chris conducts independent research, consults, develops information products, and creates free content to help people improve their health. Chris is dedicated to sharing practical principles from complex science, and to the pursuit of truth and continuous learning. He's a biohacker from before the word “biohacking” came to be, appearing on episode 16 of this podcast when I was just getting that movement started, because he not only pays attention to how stuff works in the world and academic research, but he hacks his own body. I've always liked the way he thinks mechanistically about biology, nutrients, and what to eat. In this conversation, we talk about how to recover from veganism and reverse the effects of oxalates, highlighting the long term health impacts of the vegan diet. His own self experimentation lately is of particular interest to me as he's been exploring the intersection of genetics and mitochondrial health to heal niche health conditions and even quell extreme fears or stressors.We also talk about the link between energy metabolism and psychological trauma, chronic pain and oxalate overload, and even explore the potential dangers of methylene blue from his latest 58 page research paper breaking down the importance of correct dosing.

    If you struggle with retaining sharp focus or have been diagnosed with ADHD or other conditions that impede your brain from functioning at its optimal level, this is the podcast episode for you. We learn about a (literally) out-of-the-box solution to attention training—video games. Yes, you read that right.Our guest today, Dr. Adam Gazzaley, holds an M.D. and Ph.D. in Neuroscience from Mount Sinai School of Medicine and completed Neurology residency at the University of Pennsylvania, followed by postdoctoral training in cognitive neuroscience at UC Berkeley.

So it's safe to say that Adam is not your prototypical basement gamer.As someone who struggled with focus and attention due to Asperger's syndrome and brain fog due to the effects of toxic mold exposure, figuring out how to retrain my brain to be able to retain more information and focus longer was one of the first areas of biohacking I ever explored. This is why I'm so excited to be talking all about Endeavor Rx today, the world's first FDA-authorized prescription video game treatment for pediatric ADHD—and Endeavor OTC, for adults who struggle with ADHD, focus, attention, and distraction.We explore how we can measure attention and improvement in focus, the biological systems that control what we focus on consciously and subconsciously, the role of nutrition in our ability to focus, the underlying technology of Endeavor, measuring its effectiveness, and Adam's vision for how we can use biosensing technology—now and in the future—to optimize awareness, focus, mood, and more.

She runs a publishing company called Better Lover, and has a supplement company called The 20. Her expertise is in ageless sexuality, sexual biohacking, libido supplementation, and sexual regenerative therapies that roll back the clock on aging.Whether you're a man or a woman, you'll learn the specific things you can do to change the performance, the shape, the sensitivity, and the longevity of this amazing part of your body. All life on earth—human and otherwise—runs through the same set of automated decision making that happens before your brain even gets engaged, one of which is what we'll be talking about today, which keeps the species alive forever. Let's call it fertility. It is actually a source of nourishment for us. So when you're of the appropriate age, this is as important as eating, breathing and drinking water. Yet, we pay more attention to our food than we do to our reproductive and recreational sides of staying connected to our humanness. That's why Susan's on the show today. She shares the science behind the link between intimacy and longevity, explains how to prevent atrophy in these important areas of our bodies, dispels myths about self-pleasure, gives a tutorial on all kinds of toys that can increase function and pleasure for all genders, and lists tips for creating more connection and communication in the bedroom.

    Reclaim Your Health Freedom: Understanding the Systems Keeping Us Sick - Ivor Cummins : 1085

    If you're frustrated with a system prioritizing profit over societal well-being, this episode is pivotal. Today, we dive deep with Ivor Cummins, a Dublin-based biochemical engineer with a knack for simplifying complex topics. Based on his personal history of insulin resistance and health struggles, he was able to self-heal through nutrition and a low carb diet. In this conversation, we examine the nexus of insulin resistance, heart health, and the current medical system's failure to diagnose and treat metabolic diseases.Our discussion sheds light on the origins of our current societal framework and its influence on our health and choices. Ivor's unique perspective, combining the understanding of intricate systems in both power and biology, illustrates a clear parallel: We've been given systems that aren't working for the greater good. In many cases, our health is in our own hands. Mine and Ivor's stories of weight loss are two of millions examples of that. However, recognizing these facts offers hope, because when you're informed and aware, you have the freedom to choose what's right for you, and the confidence to stand up for it. With that goal in mind, we examine the impact of influential figures like the Rockefellers and J.P. Morgan, discuss what's going on at the WHO in response to the recent COVID pandemic, and explain the need for distributed versus central governing systems, among many other blockades to true freedom we're currently facing. Expanding our collective awareness through these conversations is the key to reclaiming control over our lives. Lastly, I can't emphasize enough the power of consumer choice. Institutions can't dictate our spending without offering value. There's a peaceful, two-fold solution to our current dilemma— leveraging technology and altering our behaviors. But most importantly, dispelling the pervasive myths that have clouded our understanding and judgment for decades.

Of most importance to Jack is the impact of restorative sleep in terms of recovery from disease, prevention of disease, longevity, and performance. He's funded a bunch of research on sleep quality and has worked directly with health gurus including myself, professional athletes, various teams in the NBA, NFL, MLS, and over 25% of active NHL players on creating healthy sleep performance. Essentia's organic mattress has been recognized by several internationally renowned organizations including the Mayo Clinic's Well Living Lab, and has been named the #1 foam mattress by Consumer Reports for seven consecutive years. If you're a long time listener or you've read some of my books, you understand how getting a lot of sleep is probably not good for you. If it's more than eight hours, your chances of dying are higher than people who get seven hours a night. The reason I wanted to have Jack on the show today is to go over the latest data on how sleeping on an organic Essentia mattress can improve REM and deep sleep by between 20 and 60 percent. Remember—it's not the volume, it's the quality of sleep that matters.

Even with his “celebrity trainer” title (which he doesn't love), Magnus is quick to say, “It's not who you train, it's how you train.”His Magnus Method training philosophy embraces the “ethos of an athlete.” This all-inclusive approach to performance includes an athlete's intensity and structure, while also maintaining balance and energy. Time-zone travel, long days of filming, rehearsals, and the constant demands on a celebrity performer's time means examining all aspects of fueling, rest and recovery. The same applies to the everyday lives of mere mortals.He encourages being open to learning new things and seeking out discomfort so you can grow. “Look at three things,” Magnus recommends. “One, what do I like to do? No. 2, what does my body need? No. 3, what do I want to master or get better at? That should create your weekly programming.”You already know, and Magnus will remind you, that there are absolutely no life shortcuts to being the superhero of your own life.In this conversation, you'll find out how much time to spend on your workouts (not as much as you think). “What doesn't happen in the first hour will not happen in the second,” he says frequently.

You'll also get tips on how to be emotionally responsible to people you love every day.Guest John Kim, a licensed marriage and family therapist, as well as a life coach, cracks his life into two big pieces… split on either side of what he calls “the great divide” of his own divorce several years ago.

He became known as an unconventional therapist, seeing clients at coffee shops, on hikes, or in a CrossFit box.

He studies the ways in which your inner voice impacts your health, performance, decisions and relationships. He explores how people manage their emotions in order to better understand self-control.

However, when the voice turns to negative and disorienting self-talk (chatter), it can create chaos and overwhelm by zooming into our problems, making you lose perspective.Ethan's pioneering research mixes behavioral and brain research to get at the “why” behind human nature. He uses insights from his research to give people science-based tools they can use to change their behavior, be used in relationships, support a career move, improve physical performance, decrease stress, increase productivity and be used to reach life goals.

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