How does mitochondrial function directly influence aging in the skin and what can we do to support it? Why do our energy levels affect the way we show up in life, from social interactions to self-care? In this episode, Dr. Dan Pardi and I explore one of the most powerful foundations of youthful, radiant skin: mitochondrial health. We dive into how vitality, energy production, and cellular function directly influence not only how we age, but how we feel, and how we show up in our daily lives.Shop Qualia: http://www.qualialife.com/rachelYou're going to love this conversation, and you're going to want to share it with everyone you care about who also desires to look and feel their best too!Learn more about Dr. Dan Pardi:Dr. Dan Pardi is the Chief Health Officer at Qualia Life Sciences, where he leads education to advance healthspan and peak performance.

What if longevity wasn't about adding more to your routine, but about helping your body do what it's already designed to do? Today on Rooted in Wellness, I'm joined by Dan Pardi, Chief Health Officer at Qualia Life Sciences, to explore how stem cells, cellular repair, and resilience actually work in the body. We discuss why recovery shifts as we age, the role of inflammation in slowing regeneration, and how simple lifestyle rhythms like movement, sleep in true darkness, fasting, and circadian alignment create the internal environment for healing. We also look at senolytics, autophagy, and stem cell support through a grounded, science-informed lens that feels accessible rather than extreme. This is the bridge we love on this show: emerging research meeting practical daily life. Dan Pardi leads health strategy and research at Qualia Life Sciences, where he focuses on supporting the body's natural repair systems through education, systems-level formulation, and a healthspan-first approach. His work blends emerging science with real-world application to help people feel well longer.

Leveling Up: Creating Everything From Nothing with Natalie Jill
What if the reason you can't lose weight, feel exhausted, and struggle with inflammation has nothing to do with your diet or exercise routine – but with zombie cells lurking in your body? In this game-changing episode, I sit down with Dan Pardi, Chief Health Officer at Qualia Life, to uncover the hidden world of cellular senescence and why these "zombie cells" might be sabotaging your health without you even knowing it. We dive deep into how damaged cells that refuse to die are creating chronic inflammation, accelerating aging, and potentially blocking your body's ability to heal itself. Dan reveals the shocking connection between your circadian rhythm and cellular aging, why your immune system stops clearing these problematic cells as you age, and the breakthrough science of senolytics that's revolutionizing how we approach healthy aging. Plus, I share the incredible story of how addressing zombie cells transformed my friend's decades-long battle with endometriosis – and why this might be the missing piece in your own health puzzle.

He holds a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience from Leiden University and Stanford, and speaks regularly at events like TEDx, VC Firms, and the Institute for Human Machine Cognition.Think of your body's repair crew as always on call, rarely on stage. Stem cells sit quietly in protective niches until growth factors wake them, chemokines guide them to damaged tissue, and local signals shape them into exactly what's needed. We invited Dr. Dan Pardi, Chief Health Officer at Qualia Life Sciences, to break down that invisible choreography—why it weakens with age and how to support it without pushing the system into overdrive.We start by making stem cells simple: potency tiers, key types like hematopoietic and mesenchymal, and what “exhaustion” really means. Dan explains how inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and epigenetic drift—core hallmarks of aging—distort the niche and blunt self-renewal. From there, we map the full life cycle: quiescence, activation, mobilization, migration, and differentiation guided by ancient pathways like Wnt, Notch, and Sonic Hedgehog. Understanding this sequence clarifies the therapy landscape, from evidence-backed marrow transplants to targeted orthopedic injections, and why unproven IV offerings can be risky.If you care about healthy aging, joint health, recovery, and evidence-based wellness, this conversation offers a grounded roadmap. We keep the science clear, the hype in check, and the focus on balance—protect, pulse, and let biology do its best work.

Okay y'all, this one's a good one. I'm chatting with Dr Dan Pardi about something that sounds a little sciencey but trust me, you're going to get it - NAD+.

This week I'm joined by Dr. Dan Pardi, Qualia's Chief Health Officer, for a fascinating dive into your body's repair system. We explore what's really happening to your stem cells as you age - spoiler alert: they don't disappear, they just get stuck in toxic environments that prevent them from working. Dr. Pardi breaks down the science of stem cell exhaustion, one of the 15 hallmarks of aging, and shares practical strategies to support these ancient repair mechanisms. From the evolutionary origins of stem cells to cutting-edge protocols that work with your body's natural rhythms, this conversation reveals how to optimize your repair system at any age.For the complete show notes, links and transcript visit inspiredliving.show/209

Sleep is one of the most critical yet often overlooked components of health, performance, and overall well-being. Poor sleep quality or insufficient sleep can disrupt circadian rhythms, impair glucose metabolism, and alter hunger signals, leading to increased food intake, reduced insulin sensitivity, and other undesirable outcomes. In this episode, we bring together expert discussions from some of the leading researchers in sleep science, to explore what defines high-quality sleep, the mechanisms behind sleep regulation, and the factors that influence sleep-wake cycles, from light exposure to psychological stress.

Dan collaborated with more than 100 science professors around the globe to create his digital humanOS application. Dan has a Ph.D. in cognitive neuroscience from Leiden University in the Netherlands and Stanford University in the United States. He has a master's degree in exercise physiology from Florida State University and currently lives in Austin, Texas, with his wife, two young boys, and their dog, Wally. Joining STEM-Talk host Dr. Ken Ford for today's conversation with Dan is Dr. Marcas Bamman, a senior research scientist here at IHMC. Marcas was a STEM-Talk guest on episode 116. In today's interview with Dan, we cover his early career in bioinformatics and how a trip to Moscow led to his doctoral research of sleep and treatments for narcolepsy. He also talks about the Loop Model to Adopt and Sustain Health Behaviors, a program he developed during his Ph.D. studies. The Loop Model became the core of his company, humanOS. Finally, Dan talks about the concepts of “actual health,” health-performance experts and a shift in what aging means, which he believes is important to improving the quality of life for all of us. Show notes: [00:03:19] Marcas starts the interview by asking Dan to talk about his years growing up in Northern California's Marin County. [00:04:06] Ken asks Dan about building radio-controlled cars with his father. [00:05:11] Marcas explains that Dan's father was a successful businessman who, after a successful career as a salesman for Remco selling kitchenware, started his own company in California that grew to 200 employees. Dan has been quoted as saying that one of the lessons he learned from his father was the value of relationships. Marcas asks how that lesson has affected Dan's life. [00:06:29] Dan talks about his passion for basketball and how his time at the Cap Lavin camp influenced his early life. [00:08:15] Marcas mentions that Dan's “science life” seems to have begun with a seventh-grade science-fair project that ended up landing him a job with Nike. Marcas asks Dan to talk about that story. [00:09:26] Ken mentions that Dan went to the University of San Francisco for his bachelor's degree and then went to Florida State for his Masters in Exercise Physiology. Ken asks what led Dan to FSU. [00:10:26] Ken asks why Dan decided to pursue a career in cancer research, going to work at the Preventive Medicine Research Institute in Northern California after graduating. [00:12:04] Marcas commends Dan for being ahead of his time by leveraging the new technological development of the internet portal to empower life scientists while he was working with the Bioinformatics Biotech DoubleTwist, and asks what that experience was like. [00:13:41] Ken asks Dan how a trip to Moscow led Dan to pursue a Ph.D. at Leiden University and Stanford, after already working in the industry for 10 years. [00:15:17] Marcas explains that Dan's Ph.D. research at the Zeitzer Circadian Biology Lab at Stanford University focused on gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB), sleep and ingestive behavior. Marcas asks what was most interesting about this research for Dan. [00:16:24] Marcas asks about a randomized controlled trial that Dan conducted to look into ecologically relevant amounts of sleep loss. This trial enrolled 50 participants and manipulated ...

What Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) is and why it's just being introduced now to the general public. Josh C's background and what lead him to study metabolic health and CGM. The positive impact CGM is making for the diabetic community but also well beyond that for everyone else. CES FitTech Summit Why CGM is one of the only biohacks that can really move the needle for people. The history of CGM, what it is, and how it can greatly impact our health decisions. Ongoing developments and how CGM is getting to the point where it makes sense to use it as a biowearable. Why metabolism is actually a broad spectrum that impacts our lifestyle.

Their new project to help practitioners develop a very personalized coaching approach with metabolic fitness for their patients. Why emotion has to be attached to action or data to actually move somebody forward in their wellness journey. M21 Wellness Guide Wellness Force Community Power Quotes From The Show Developing Your Metabolic Fitness "We're developing a 28-day program which gives people a metabolic awareness and guides them along the process of closing the loop between the actions they're taking and the reactions their body is experiencing using the Continuous Glucose Monitor. This experience is intended to connect us with our own metabolisms and develop that metabolic awareness intuition to point us in the right direction for metabolic fitness. Just like physical fitness, in order for us to become metabolically healthy, we have to think of it in the same way where we're putting in focus, repetition, and effort to achieve our goals." - Josh Clemente Real-Time Diet Advice "We have had data in our understanding of metabolism for a long time but the problem is it's been population set data. The data is just averaged and all of the information and advice we get is based on the average of a group of people who were studied at some point in the distant future or past. That data doesn't have any connection to you. Now, when you wear your Levels CGM device and you eat a meal, you can see your body telling you something; it's almost like an emotional experience." - Josh Clemente Why Setbacks Are Meaningful Life Lessons "It's easy when you're younger to just assume that you know it all or life is going well so you must have it figured out but it takes a series of setbacks to really be able to reflect on life in a meaningful way. With that being said, setbacks are the most important thing in life because they're lessons learned. Over time and through experience, we start to develop wisdom and context for different things. To me, that is the spiritual component in the wellness journey." - Josh Clemente Links From Today's Show Sign up for early access to Levels Health Creating an Optimal Diet by Tracking Glucose The Levels Blog Organifi CES FitTech Summit Charles Duhigg 206 Dan Pardi 103 Robb Wolf .

Dr. Dan Pardi is a researcher at Stanford University in California and at Leiden University in the Netherlands who specializes in studying lifestyle factors like sleep, exercise, and diet. He is the CEO of Human OS, an app designed to take a healthy lifestyle to the next level, hour by hour. This is not your typical health tracker. When I checked it out after meeting Dr. Dan at Paleo FX this year, I knew I had to share it with you! Part of the reason Human OS succeeds is it operates on a behavior model called the Loop Model, which not only measures activity against your goals, but helps you tap into the “why” and the “how” to keep you motivated and overcoming obstacles. Human OS even takes into account the light (or lack of light) you’re exposed to during the day, memory retention, and other details other apps miss. Episode Highlights With Human OS How Human OS creates highly credible, easy to understand, referenced courses on health topics Ways that light affects our bodies and the ideal pattern for exposure Why friendship may be the #1 health hack A simple way to manage stress better Five key development objectives: brain development, mind development, wisdom development, personality development, and real world skill Strategies for education in a fast-changing world And more!

Read Transcript Child: Welcome to my Mommy's podcast. This podcast is brought to you by Joovv. You've heard me talk about them before but their red light therapy or photobiomodulation lights are a part of my daily routine. Here's why: There's evidence that certain wavelengths of light are beneficial to the body in various ways. On a cellular level, they may help improve mitochondrial function and increase production of ATP, or cellular energy. This can manifest in clearer skin, more energy, quicker recovery and even increased hair growth. I use red light on my thyroid as part of my protocol along with a low inflammation diet
Health. How do you define it? In the 1980's WHO noted down the definition of health as "your ability to withstand challenges to your health.” So how does this definition of health tie in with the healthcare system we have today? In short, the modern healthcare system is much more about trying to treat illness than it is about optimizing health. There have certainly been huge advances from treating infectious diseases, making childbirth safer (decreasing infant mortality), hygiene in medical practice/surgery, and trauma emergency medicine -- and big extensions of average human lifespan as a result of these advances. However, modern medicine has made relatively little progress in terms of treating the massive epidemics of chronic diseases in the Western world (obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, autoimmune diseases, etc.) If you start investigating, you will quickly find that our healthcare system, despite great advances in technology, is still falling behind as it can't keep up with treating the ever-growing epidemics of chronic diseases that result from the mismatch of the way our biology is designed and the modern world in which we live. At the same time, all these advances in technology (smartphones, health tracking apps, etc.) are here to stay, but they will never be able to advance (fast) enough to save our lives from chronic diseases. So how do we bridge the gap between the definition of health, technology, and the healthcare system? If you want to know the answer to this question -- and if you care about your health, then you definitely DO need to know the answer to this question -- then you need to listen to this podcast. In this podcast, I talk with researcher Dan Pardi, PhDc. Dan is the CEO of humanOS and the host of humanOS Radio. He's a researcher at Stanford University and his specialties include building systems for health, behavior optimization, and habit building. In this episode, Dan and I will discuss the true definition of health, some of the major problems of our current healthcare system, and how we can start using technology to our advantage. In this podcast, we'll cover: What is the true definition of health? (And why our modern healthcare system doesn't actually have much to do with the true definition of health) Dan's take on what the optimal healthcare system SHOULD look like What space travel actually does to the human body (and why that's much more relevant than you think when it comes to your body in the modern world, on planet Earth) One of the major problems with our healthcare system How the constant technological developments affect our life Why is there so much chronic disease in the world today? How disrupted circadian rhythm habits affect cortisol How (and why) we should use modern technology to support our health Is the "you need 8 hours of sleep” advice really supporting your health? (Hint: It's much more complicated than just "get 8 hours of sleep") The #1 reason why research on plants/phytochemicals that impact health isn't being done nearly enough Dan's experiences with the fasting mimicking diet Why you can't rely on technology to be able to save you if you get sick Dan's top tips to stay healthy in a modern world that isn't very conducive to good health
In Episode 022 of A Medicinal Mind: Wisdom and Wellbeing, I have an exploratory conversation with pioneering researcher, behavioral scientist, and sleep guru: Dan Pardi. While many of you listening to this may know Dan from his passion for studying and improving your sleep, utilizing an ancestral framework through the study of hunter gatherer movement and sleep patterns, perhaps you are unaware of his background in a wellness world that extends far beyond the bedsheets. Dan is the CEO of humanOS.me, an investigator initiated sponsored research association which leverages a novel behavior model to promote health fluency, skill development, and lifestyle insights to help people master their health practice. He does research with the Zeitzer Lab in the Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences Department at Stanford, and in the Departments of Neurology and Endocrinology at Leiden University in the Netherlands where he investigates how lifestyle factors, like sleep, influence decision making, cognitive performance, and metabolism. Dan also works with Naval Special Warfare to help the most elite fighters in the world maintain alertness and capable mental performance under challenging circumstances. I could go on about Dan's accolades and impressive resume, but the truth is, Dan's passions do not actually rest in the pocket of your jacket or on the shiny screen of your new electronic device. Dan's life's work is deeply and profoundly rooted in his passion for discovering how exactly to help people live healthfully. In this podcast, as I alluded to in the beginning of the introduction, we shake things up from the standard story of sleep to uncover a little bit more behind the man just trying to get you a little bit healthier. We explore Dan's background and amazing journey through research institutions and pharmaceutical tech to arrive at his current work in the world of practically applied self tracking, or quantified self. We start to ask and answer some of the big questions when it comes to applying health tracking devices or quantified self in the clinical context What is Quantified Self or Biohacking anyway? What currently are the most common techniques for supporting positive behaviour change? Does it come from Doctors? Health Coaches? Digital Social Support Groups? iPhone Apps? We then dig into Dan's newest endeavour the previously mentioned innovative program humanos.me What is it exactly? What is its intention? Mission going forward? What measures are you tracking with this program and how? And of course, does it actually help? We then enter a discussion covering some of the pressing topics facing the functional and ancestral health movements as a whole. Why do functional medicine clinicians need technologies such as humanos to track and deliver health education. How can we practically tomorrow implement and start using some of this technology? How many measures are too much? And are there actually any downsides to tracking biometrics? Will we lose intuition, and simply become tech robots even more reliant on our digital devices to survive? Dan ends the conversation speculating about the future of health tracking technology, genetics, and the personalized medicine movement as a whole If you have listened to Dan speak before, and I most certainly have followed his fascinating work, I really think you will find this interview practical, genuine and creatively optimistic. I was so excited and grateful to have met Dan this past September at the 2017 AHS and cannot wait to continue growing our friendship, bringing the world more insightful discussions and of course nourishing health education and technology. A big thank you to Dan for taking time to share this conversation with me and through me with you! So without further adieu, let's dig into the show!

Dan Pardi interviews Professor Stephen Hinshaw from UC Berkeley. Dr. Hinshaw is a world authority on the condition of attention deficit. He described ADHD as an 'equifinal' condition, meaning that it appears that there are multiple different biological pathways to inattentiveness. Optimal strategies to address the condition are reviewed.
Sitting has been called the new smoking. Is this true? Dan Pardi interviews Professor Travis Saunders of The University of Prince Edward Island and the founder of the Sedentary Behavior Research Network. Dr. Saunders discusses the state of the research on sitting and standing - what do we know, what questions remain, and practical ways to integrate this information into your day.
In this interview, Dan Pardi interviews evolutionary biologist, Professor David Samson of Duke University. Dr. Samson talks about his work research the sleep platforms (i.e., beds) or great apes in Africa. We discuss how these platforms appear to have contributed to deeper sleep in certain great apes, and in turn, how this deeper sleep seemingly contributed to greater cognitive abilities than compared to primates with shallower sleep.
Dr. Ruscio interviews Dan Pardi, CEO of Dan's Plan, in this episode of the podcast.
