It's the only full-spectrum magnesium supplement with 7 unique forms of magnesium that your body can actually use and absorb. When you get all 7 critical forms of magnesium, pretty much every function in your body gets upgraded... from your brain... to your sleep... pain, and inflammation...and less stress. BiOptimizers only offers this discount once a year, so don't miss out. Just go to www.bioptimizers.com/happy and enter code happy10 to get 10% off any order.   I assure you that all BiOptimizers supplements are best in class.

Are we headed toward a future controlled by AI?   In today's episode of the Darin Olien Show, Zachary Levi and I discuss the potential implications of rapidly advancing artificial intelligence (AI) and its impact on society, jobs, and our way of life.    As AI continues to progress at an unprecedented pace, it's crucial for us to be aware of the potential consequences, such as widespread job displacement across industries like entertainment, and the importance of creating intentional communities that prioritize human connection, well-being, and purpose.   Levi shares his insights on the need for individuals to take responsibility for their own healing and personal growth to become more effective agents of positive change in the world. He emphasizes the significance of self-love, addressing traumas, and exploring various therapeutic modalities, including plant medicines and psychedelics, to support mental and emotional well-being.

Have you ever wondered about the untapped potential within yourself and the world around you? In today's episode of the Darin Olien Show, I dive deep into the fascinating realms of frequency healing, indigenous wisdom, and the transformative power of self-love.   My special guest, Danette May, shares her incredible insights on bridging the gap between modern wellness and ancient traditions. She emphasizes that the key to true healing and happiness lies in embracing and loving ourselves fully, even the parts we often hide away.   Throughout this conversation, Danette and I explore the cutting-edge science of frequency healing, the wisdom of indigenous practices, and the importance of ceremony in our daily lives.

Are You Putting Toxic Chemicals on Your Skin?   You lather it on before heading outside to "protect" yourself from the sun's rays. But what if that sunscreen you're using is actually doing more harm than good?   In my solo episode of The Darin Olien Show, I dive deep into the dangers of common sunscreen ingredients like avobenzone, oxybenzone, octocrylene, and e-camsule. Shocking research shows that these chemicals get absorbed into the bloodstream at levels far exceeding safety limits - even from a single application!   The main point? These hormone-disrupting, potentially cancer-causing chemicals have no place in sunscreens or on our skin. Sensible sun exposure without sunscreen is not only safe, but crucial for vitamin D production, nitric oxide increase, and overall mortality reduction.   This is an eye-opening listen that will make you seriously rethink slathering on those toxic sunscreen products.    Don't forget… You can order now by heading to https://darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Vivo Barefoot: Get 20% off your first Vivobarefoot order with DARIN20 at www.vivobarefoot.com   Find more from Darin: Website: https://darinolien.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Darinolien/ Book: https://darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book/ Down to Earth: https://darinolien.com/down-to-earth/    Use code OLIEN20 for a Viome discount   Candiani Denim: https://www.candianidenim.com/   

Food is the strongest lever to optimize health and environmental sustainability on Earth. The solution? We need a substantial shift towards plant-based dietary patterns and a 50% reduction in food waste.   In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Amy Keller, founder of Climate Candy, to discuss her innovative solution to food waste. We dive into the real issues behind this problem and explore the shifts we can make for the greatest impact.   In our discussion, we talk about the staggering food waste plaguing the nation, and how it affects our economy and soil. We talk about corporate solutions as well as personal solutions we should all incorporate. A planted-based focus could change the issue drastically, and Amy is on a journey to educate the population to do just that. We also dive into school programs and how reducing our consumption of convenience items could help the planet.    Amy Keller believes where there is a vision the best way to predict the future is to create it yourself. She has never been satisfied with the status quo and Climate Candy is a catalyst for change. Amy Keller determined a long time ago that whatever business she started, it had to make a positive impact on the planet and people's health. Climate Candy is a brand designed to have a long-standing and meaningful role in the cultural revolution in upcycled foods and climate change. The success lies in the brand imbued with this sense of mission, personality, and personal values.   What we discuss…   (02:00) Food Waste and its relation to climate change and the economy  (11:00) Amy Keller's climate candy solution (17:00) Taking the information to the people  (23:00) The real issue and getting people to do better (31:30) The change in the soil due to our habits (33:00) Climate Candy's goals (37:00) A plant-based journey (41:00) Shifts to make for the greatest impact (47:00) Reducing plastic use  (55:00) Getting excited about solutions  (1:04:00) The power of being kind  (1:07:00) School programs need a change   …and more!   Don't forget:   You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Bite: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

Are we really safe in our own home?   Join me in this special solo episode of The Darin Olien Show, as I explore the critical topic of indoor air quality and its profound impact on our health, productivity, and longevity. Indoor air pollution is a hidden danger in our modern living conditions, filled with volatile organic compounds from building materials, cleaning products, and everyday household items. With alarming statistics from the World Health Organization linking poor indoor air quality to 3.8 million deaths annually, it's clear we need to be more aware of the pollutants in our homes.    From molds and pet dander to chemical off-gassing from furniture and paints, we'll uncover the various sources of indoor air pollution and their adverse effects on our health, including respiratory diseases and exacerbated chronic conditions.   Tune in as I discuss actionable steps to improve the air quality in your living spaces and take control of your indoor environment for a healthier life.   Are you ready to improve your indoor air quality, elevate your health, embrace joy, and create a better environment, starting from your own home?   We also discuss:   (00:02) - Indoor Air Quality Awareness (03:43) Poor Air Quality Impacts Health (10:56 ) Impact of Indoor Air Quality (17:49) Improving Indoor Air Quality Solutions   Don't forget:   You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Branch Basics: Save 15% on your Starter Kit when you use code DARIN at www.branchbasics.com.   Find more from Darin: Website: https://darinolien.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Darinolien/ Book: https://darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book/ Down to Earth: https://darinolien.com/down-to-earth/    

Life is a journey of continuous growth, where experiences serve as feedback to nourish our spiritual evolution. Amidst emotional, physical, or spiritual pain lies the opportunity for inspiration, breakthrough, and transformation.   In these moments, we should look for the lessons hidden within the challenges rather than becoming victims of our pain. Learning from our pain requires a radical shift in perspective and action. This is the key to overcoming fear, activating our dreams, and translating inspiration into tangible pursuits.   In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Mike Posner as he shares his transformative journey of turning pain into purpose. Mike's pivotal moment came from a series of devastating losses, including the passing of his father and friends. Despite achieving material success, an underlying sense of sadness lingered, compelling him to seek a more fulfilling path. Exhausted by the cycle of passive inspiration without action and recognizing the need to break free from comfort and approval-seeking, Mike took a radical shift. He embarked on a soul-searching journey: a solo trek across America.   In our discussion, Mike shares insights from his quest for self-inspiration, shedding light on his decision to pivot and embrace discomfort as a catalyst for personal growth, inspiration, and genuine connection. He also provides practical advice for listeners to live a purposeful, present, and happy life.   Mike is a singer and producer, and despite his success, he embarked on a transformative journey, setting aside the comforts of fame to trek across America. He walked solo from Asbury Park, New Jersey, to Venice Beach, California, covering 2,851 miles. Along the way, he faced challenges, including a rattlesnake bite that led to an emergency helicopter ride to a Colorado ICU. Rejecting hero status, Mike aimed to inspire others by embracing discomfort and building resilience. Known for hits like "Cooler Than Me" and "I Took a Pill in Ibiza," his journey symbolizes personal growth and transformation.   What we discuss…   (00:00) How being around good energy helps you show up differently (04:30) Relationships and how they are inspiring Mike's life and craft (12:07) Shifting pain to purpose: activating your dream, showing up, and going for it. (18:02) Creating a future that makes the present bearable and exciting (20:09) The vision that inspired Mike to walk across the United States (23:11) Overcoming the chasm that keeps us from living a genuinely happy life (32:10) Three distractions pulling us away from living from an inspired action path (42:16) How to overcome resistance and be unstoppable when hit by adversity (49:29) What Mike is excited about and is creating right now   …and more!   Don't forget:   You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Manna Vitality: Go to www.mannavitality.com and use code DARIN12 at checkout for 12% off.

Could your plate of greens be the secret to shedding those stubborn pounds?    In today's episode on the Darin Olien Show, I talk with Dr. Neal Barnard about the science behind the weight loss wonders of a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. From a landmark 2005 study providing a fresh perspective on appetite control to metabolism-boosting recipes, we're unveiling a world where counting calories becomes obsolete, and where foods like cinnamon and blueberries earn the title of 'power foods.'   This conversation stands as a testament to the might of plant-based proteins and the truths about soy in men's health. We tackle the misunderstandings head-on, debunking fears with evidence that highlights soy's cancer-fighting properties and the real effects of dairy on our hormonal balance. Our conversation may just be the catalyst you need to re-evaluate your protein sources and embrace the multitude of benefits that come from plants.   Dr. Barnard has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, hormonal symptoms, and chronic pain, including a groundbreaking study of dietary interventions in type 2 diabetes. Dr. Barnard has authored more than 100 scientific publications and 20 books for medical and lay readers, and is the editor in chief of the Nutrition Guide for Clinicians.   What I discuss:  (00:06) Power Foods Diet and Weight Loss (04:23) Plant-Based Diet for Weight Loss (17:21) The Power of Plant-Based Foods (20:55) Power Foods and Weight Loss Benefits (35:10) Plant-Based Protein and Soy Truth (43:25) Diet and Hormones (56:10) Changing Food Policy Through Education (01:09:06) Power Foods and Nutrition Journey   Thank you to our sponsors: Bite: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

This week of the Biohacking Bestie, I'm publishing my interview with Darin Olien on the Darin Olien Show. Together we explore how women have just been treated as slightly less hairy men when it comes to health and wellness. With multitudes of studies being done on everything from fat loss, fasting, and nutrition - without a single menstruating woman included in the study. Health and wellness isn't one size fits all. Males are solar with 24 hour hormonal cycles, while females are lunar with a 28 day hormonal cycle that is deeply connected to the moon. So our approaches to health need to be completely different. That's why we also discuss the damage being done to women as we live in a world that's less and less attuned to their natural cycles and the true health impacts of suppressing emotions for the sake of keeping others happy.Darin Olien is co-host of the Emmy™ Award Winning, #1 Netflix docu-series, Down to Earth with Zac Efron. Spending nearly 20 years exploring the planet discovering new and underutilized exotic foods and medicinal plants as a Superfood hunter Darin developed, Shakeology – grossing over $4 Billion in sales since 2008 for Beachbody. He also created a plant-based Ultimate Reset 21-day detoxification program for the company. From his years of experience within the health space, he wrote his New York Times best-selling book, “SuperLife: The five fixes that will keep you healthy, fit and eternally awesome”.

Did you know North American families toss out up to $1,800 worth of food each year? It's time we learn how to cook our meals in a more sustainable way – our planet and our bodies will thank us. That's why in this episode of the Darin Olien Show, I dive into sustainable cooking, food waste, and plant-based living with guest Carleigh Bodrug.    Carleigh gives us a startling look at the financial and environmental impacts of food waste, shares creative tips on how to use every scrap from your chopping board, from stale bread to broccoli stems, how to eat more nutrient-dense foods on a budget, and gives us solutions for crafting easy, healthy, plant-based meal ideas that are perfect for our busy lifestyles.   With more than 10 million followers between her social channels, Carleigh Bodrug of PlantYou is a New York Times Bestselling cookbook author and self taught plant-based content creator, famous for her simple take on low waste and vegan recipes.

You may feel that you get more oxygen when you breathe in through your mouth, but the science shows, it's just not true.    In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Patrick McKeown from Oxygen Advantage, to discuss the fascinating connections between nose breathing, facial aesthetics, and overall health. We begin by discussing how choosing a good-looking face is related to proper breathing and delve into the problems associated with mouth breathing. Our conversation goes over the high-level functions of the nose and the importance of conscious deep breathing, including when and why to do it.   We introduce the concept of hyperoxygenation and the BOLT (body oxygen level test) and explore various ways to improve oxygen saturation. We also discuss the consequences of not breathing properly and what you might be missing out on.   Throughout the episode, we emphasize the importance of proper breathing techniques and their impact on various aspects of our lives, from physical health and appearance to mental well-being and success. Patrick McKeown grew up with debilitating asthma. In 1998, he found an article in an Irish newspaper about the Buteyko breathing method. He tried the exercise to unblock his nose and was struck by how well it worked. Since then, he has become a leading expert on breathing and an advocate for its health benefits.   What we discuss… 4:00 Choosing a good looking face due to breathing 9:00 The problem of mouth breathing  13:06 High level functions of the nose  25:30 Conscious deep breathing- when and why to do it 32:40 Hyperoxygenation and the BOLT (body oxygen level test)  37:37 Ways to improve oxygen saturation  47:55 What you're missing by not breathing properly  57:47 How we got to a place of high toxins, but we still give in 1:07:10 Our education system is flawed 1:10:30 Patrick's biggest vision 1:14:10 Where to find more from Oxygen Advantage    …and more!   Don't forget:   You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Bite Toothpaste: Go to www.trybite.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 20% off Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.

Do you blindly assume that big brand companies have your back when it comes to testing the safety of their products? You shouldn't. Your health depends on it.    In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Leah Segedie from Mamavation, as we take a skeptical look at major companies, even those marketing themselves as clean and organic. We answer questions about whether they are truly prioritizing consumer well-being. Leah argues that profit motive often takes precedence over proper safety testing and responsible practices. We discuss greenwashing and deceptive "natural" claims that are misleading marketing tactics to prey on consumer trust. We go over the fact that companies need to be more transparent and held accountable for creating safe products, putting people before profits. Overall, we urge listeners to think critically, dig deeper when evaluating "organic" claims, and use their purchasing power to support companies that are honest and responsible. We advocate for consumers to take charge of their health by demanding better from brands  Leah Segedie helps women make safer consumer choices for their families. She's a consumer watchdog, author, activist, community organizer, & strategist. Leah founded award-winning consumer activist website Mamavation.com and the leading eco-friendly influencer conference,  ShiftCon Social Media Conference. She also wrote Green Enough: Eat Better, Live Cleaner, Be Happier (All Without Driving Your Family Crazy!) to democratize scientific findings and help families make safer & greener product choices.     What we discuss… Leah's start in safer choices due to family  You can't assume products are safe Some manufacturers are just naive  Surprising places you'll find toxic materials  The only way to change is for the entire industry to come together Sperm health is down 50% in virility because of phthalates Creating a better world  The most toxic bathroom item Led in Stanley cups What Leah's most concerned about    …and more!   Don't forget:   You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Manna Vitality: Go to www.mannavitality.com and use code DARIN12 at checkout for 12% off.

Did you know that a healthy anti-inflammatory diet can benefit various organs throughout your body? From your heart and lungs to your brain, the right nutrition can slow down the aging process and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.   In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with the author of How Not To Die and How Not To Age, Michael Greger. We discuss this nation's major inflammation and age related disease issues and how they come from an ultra processed food diet. We go over how to boost our body's natural cellular recycling process with simple lifestyle changes.    In our discussion, we emphasize the importance of evidence based research and how companies and consumers should make some modern day lifestyle changes. With simple changes, we could drastically reduce age related diseases. Our conversation dives into misconceptions with aging as well as the healing power of natural foods.    Michael Greger, M.D., is a physician and internationally recognized speaker on nutrition. His science-based nonprofit, NutritionFacts.org, offers a free online portal hosting more than 2,000 videos and articles on myriad health topics. Dr. Greger is a sought-after lecturer and has presented at the Conference on World Affairs and the World Bank, testified before Congress, and was invited as an expert witness in Oprah Winfrey's defense in the infamous “meat defamation” trial. A graduate of Cornell University School of Agriculture and Tufts University School of Medicine, Dr. Greger is also an acclaimed author. How Not to Die, The How Not to Die Cookbook, How Not to Diet, and How Not to Age became instant New York Times Best Sellers. More than a million copies of How Not to Die have been sold.

Understanding how our daily moves impact the environment - that's where the real power lies. From the products we bring into our lives to how we choose to get around, every single choice we make has a direct effect on our planet.   Dialing in to make more conscious decisions, whether that's cutting way back on waste, conserving precious energy, or actively supporting eco-revolutionaries making positive waves - that's how we each unleash our power to contribute to environmental health in a major way.   In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Graham Hill as he shares insights and expertise on environmental sustainability. From his experiences founding Treehugger to his current role as CEO of LifeEdited, Graham offers valuable lessons on how we can make a meaningful impact through simple yet impactful actions toward a greener and more sustainable future.   The big issues can feel heavy, no doubt about it. But we can flip the script by first mastering the controllables right where we're planted - upgrading our habits and routines at home base.   Graham is an entrepreneur and advocate for sustainable living and conscious consumerism. He founded Treehugger, a platform teaching simple ways to care for the environment. As CEO of LifeEdited, he designs space-efficient buildings, products, and lifestyles that use fewer resources. Graham's ventures range from an early web browser to a ceramic take on the iconic New York coffee cup. His TED talks on weekday vegetarianism and prioritizing "less stuff, more happiness" showcase his mission to inspire positive change.   What we discuss…   (02:02) What inspired Graham to build Treehugger (06:43) Polarization: Why it's a big challenge and how to overcome it (08:47) The most powerful choice you can make for yourself and the environment (18:15) The biggest mistake people make trying to live sustainably  (25:02) Why carbon measuring is critical in environmental sustainability (32:42) Investing in environmental sustainability (35:23) Activities that you can do to participate in carbon offsetting (40:48) How to reduce organic waste to save money and the environment (52:17) Electric vehicles innovations and the chemistry involved in carbonization (01:02:16) Sustainability growth and ways to get involved at home and work (01:09:10) What Graham is excited about and innovating in sustainability (01:12:47) Awareness vs. action in climate change (01:15:19) Graham's advice on compounding and long-term thinking   …and more!   Don't forget:   You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Manna Vitality: Go to www.mannavitality.com and use code DARIN12 at checkout for 12% off.

When you're done using a product and throw it in the trash or recycling - do you think about what happens to it?   Aluminum - this lightweight metal is embedded in countless products, from soda cans to jets. But even with aluminum's recyclability, inefficient practices mean we keep producing new aluminum instead of reusing what we've already produced. It's a vicious cycle.   In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Dr. Saleem Ali, Professor of Energy and the Environment, to provide an insightful examination of aluminum, highlighting its omnipresence in our lives and the complex relationship humanity has with this abundant metal. We examine the pros and cons of aluminum use, from its critical role in various industries to its alarming presence in our bodies, and consider the environmental implications of its widespread application and the need for improved recycling practices and alternative materials.   Dr. Ali also shares his insights on how science and environmental concerns are often overshadowed by politics and the concept of circularity, inspired by Barry Commoner's ecological laws, and how thinking in circles can apply to both personal consumption and business models.   Dr. Saleem Ali is is the Blue & Gold Distinguished Professor of Energy and the Environment at the University of Delaware, UN International Resource Panelist, National Geographic Explorer, and author exploring sustainable resource use through books like "Earthly Order” and his new book “Soil to Foil: Aluminum and the Quest for Industrial Sustainability”.    What we discuss…   (06:19) The truth about aluminum and sustainable use practices  (12:51) Transportation and sustainability in modern society  (24:51) Scientific cooperation in international relations and navigating crisis together  (44:07) Empowering sustainable lifestyle choices in a world of conveniences (49:35) Nuclear energy and environmental myths (54:26) The impacts of the sharing economy on our environment  (01:05:31) Nonprofit models for public knowledge and finding democratic solutions to challenges  (01:20:26) Hope for innovation in Africa   …and more!   Don't forget:   You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Bite: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

Detoxing isn't just about flushing toxins - it's a journey of liberation. By purging the body of harmful substances, you're unburdening your mind from the shackles of trauma, anxiety and depression.    Committing for the long-haul unlocks more than just physical health - it allows you to become deeply connected to your instincts and inner voice in a way you've never experienced.    In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Josh Macin as he shares his harrowing journey through severe mental health struggles, the conventional pharmaceutical treatments that failed him, and his ultimate quest for healing in the Amazon with ayahuasca and other alternative therapies. We discuss  the significance of a gut healing protocol, reclaiming your health through intense detoxification methods, and the alarming decline in men's testosterone levels.   Josh shares his insights into living in integrity and establishing boundaries to avoid external influences, and we provide practical advice for listeners on becoming more self-aware of their health in relation to environmental factors like parasites, heavy metals, and glyphosate exposure.    Josh Macin is a former Brazilian Jiu Jitsu world champion, battled crippling anxiety and panic attacks for years after 2013. When conventional treatments failed, he experimented with powerful hallucinogens and alternative therapies worldwide in search of relief. Ultimately, heavy metal poisoning was discovered, leading him to detoxification. Now cured, he founded TheDetoxDudes.com to help others overcome toxicity.   What we discuss…   (00:00) Personal struggles with finding mental health treatment  (11:43) Healing heavy metal toxicity with detoxification  (15:39) The importance of healing the gut before chelation  (21:44) Toxins, detoxification and society's health crisis (31:53) Finding strength and optimism in adversity (35:39) Exploring non-judgment, sharing your truth, and living in integrity  (40:01) Working on defining yourself and finding your true identity  (59:49) Guidance on natural healing methods and detoxification (01:08:28) The need to set boundaries in relationships   …and more!   Don't forget:   You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Manna Vitality: Go to www.mannavitality.com and use code DARIN12 at checkout for 12% off.

If there are 6 root causes to all disease, what can we do to stop them?    With 50-60% of Americans on the road to Diabetes, it's clear that our population is sicker than ever. And the harsh truth? We're doing it to ourselves.    In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Dr. Darshan Shah to explore the common mistakes people make when seeking shortcuts to health, such as opting for advanced medical interventions while neglecting basic dietary and lifestyle habits. We also discuss the six root causes of disease and how to prevent them.    Dr. Shah shares insights into the impact of inflammation and high levels of biomarkers like HSCRP and homocysteine, which are often linked to poor gut health and a diet high in glucose and fructose. And practical advice on avoiding sedentary behavior, and prioritizing the right supplementation, nutrition and exercise.   Dr. Darshan Shah is the CEO and founder of Next Health, a trailblazer in health optimization.

Are you showing up as the co-creator of your own longevity?    After all, most religions and indigenous cultures around the world have anti-aging practices as part of their daily life. And while we're blessed with access to a wonder of medical interventions, we're doing ourselves a disservice by outsourcing it to Drs and Gurus.    In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Dr. Alexander Paziotopoulos as we discuss the importance of recognizing and addressing the cumulative impact of environmental toxins, the potential of emerging technologies in health optimization, and the power of lifestyle changes in altering our health destiny. His innovative approach, combining medical knowledge with engineering principles, paves the way for a future where health maintenance and optimization are not just possible but accessible to all.   Dr. Alexander Paziotopoulos, MD, FAARM, is the esteemed founder and lead practitioner at The Paziotopoulos Institute for Health and Longevity.

What if we could slow down the physical aging process and age better, healthier, and stronger? Thankfully, there is something we can start doing that will make a drastic impact: Boosting NAD+ in our bodies.    NAD+ is a molecule found in every cell of your body that is involved in all cellular processes in your body, works to boost cellular repair, helps neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative stress, and so much more.    NAD+ levels naturally decline with age, and research suggests that this decline may contribute to age-related diseases. Hence, boosting NAD+ in the body helps to reverse aging at the cellular level.    In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Dr. Charles Brenner to explore the fascinating science around NAD+ supplementation for optimal health, no matter our age. We discuss the fact that there's no one single hormone that extends lifespan, and the personal importance of staying physically capable to handle life's challenges.   He also shares some fascinating new research on NAD+ supplementation for family health, treatment for heart failure, and helping speed up healing.   Dr. Charles Brenner is a research pioneer in the area of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). NAD+ is vital in the creation of energy in every cell of your body and is intrinsic to the aging process. Dr. Brenner leads groundbreaking clinical trials on NAD+, focusing on its maternal and neonatal effects and translating animal model findings into safe, evidence-based clinical practices for human metabolic stress conditions.   What we discuss…   (00:00) - Exploring the wild west of supplements (& what to look for) (11:12) - Anti-aging science & the important role of NAD+   (23:29) - Debunking longevity myths  (36:50) - The relationship between sleep, alcohol consumption, and NAD+ levels (50:26) - The impressive potential of supplementation for family health (01:10:21) - How NAD+ impacts skin health (& more promising science!)

Women have just been treated as slightly less hairy men when it comes to health and wellness.    With multitudes of studies being done on everything from fat loss, fasting, and nutrition - without a single menstruating woman included in the study.    Health and wellness isn't one size fits all. Males are solar with 24 hour hormonal cycles, while females are lunar with a 28 day hormonal cycle that is deeply connected to the moon. So our approaches to health need to be completely different.    In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Aggie Lal as we discuss the damage being done to women as we live in a world that's less and less attuned to their natural cycles, she shares the challenges of feeling safe as a female traveler, and the true health impacts of suppressing emotions for the sake of keeping others happy.    Aggie Lal is a best-selling author of ‘Biohack Like a Woman', certified nutrition and health coach, host of the top rated podcast ‘Biohacking Bestie', and TEDx speaker on a mission to revolutionize the world of biohacking for women.    What we discuss…   (00:00) - Travel & the misconceptions we hold about happiness and quality of life in different countries (08:52) - the contrasting experiences of safety between men and women & the need for safety and honesty in partnerships (15:33) - Navigating relationships and how unprocessed emotions can have a more significant impact on health than diet alone (27:52) - The impact of the modern world on female health  (45:35) - Societal pressures & the importance of true self-care  (59:33) - The transformative power of weightlifting for all round female health  (01:09:43) - Listening to your gut & living in alignment with your nature   …and more!   Don't forget: You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Vivobarefoot: Get 15% off your first order with code DARINV15 at vivobarefoot.com Cymbiotika: Go to https://cymbiotika.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off   Find more from Darin: Website: https://darinolien.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Darinolien/ Book: https://darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book/ Down to Earth: https://darinolien.com/down-to-earth/   Find more from Aggie:  Website: https://biohackingbestie.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aggie/ Podcast: https://apple.co/42FE02h Book: https://biohackingbestie.com/products/biohack-like-a-woman

If someone told you that their addiction was an act of self-care, what would you say?    Would you believe them - accepting that they need their addiction to keep going, or would you see an opportunity for change?    In a world where we see more of someone's highlight reel than their struggles, it's hard for us to see all the nuances that come with addiction and poor mental health. And all the options available in the process of recovery…like plant based nutrition, for example.    In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Adam Sud to discover his transformative struggle with depression, anxiety, and addiction to being able to help others on their path to recovery. The importance of recognizing that our instincts are not failing us; rather, they are responding to an environment for which they were not designed. And the role nutrition plays in emotional wellness, highlighting the often overlooked connection between mental health issues like depression and anxiety with our physical health.   Adam Sud is a wellness and nutrition expert, speaker, and CEO of Plant Based for Positive Change. He researches nutrition's role in disease reversal, mental health and addiction, and has applied his expertise in treatment centers using plant-based nutrition as a tool for strengthening recovery and relapse prevention.   What we discuss…   (05:53) - Addiction as misguided self care and the burden of depression  (18:44) - Surviving the pain of personal crisis and finding purpose out the other side  (23:32) - Self-experimentation and the transformational power of plant-based recovery  (32:10) - How nutrition can aid in addiction recovery and have significant impact on your mental health (49:36) - Understanding the impact of modern food on our physiology (& what to do about it)  (01:01:51) - Building meaningful connections to foster resilience and help your mental health  (01:13:41) - How reorganizing your priorities, values, and environment can transform your life choices   …and more!   Don't forget:   You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Manna Vitality: Go to www.mannavitality.com and use code DARIN12 at checkout for 12% off.

Did you know that practical optimists live up to 15% longer. Why? Because from dental health to mental health, they invest in self-care top to bottom. This is the power of practical optimism, it can literally extend your life.    So if that's not how you naturally operate…how do you train your brain to think like one?    In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Dr. Sue Varma to examine the power of practical optimism and what it means to live a rich and fulfilling life. We discuss the practice of intentional living and how much it's a muscle that needs to be trained and worked.    How to overcome the temptation to blame others for the way things are, and take personal responsibility for our own happiness. And the danger of toxic positivity in actually distancing ourselves from those we want to connect with the most.    Dr. Sue Varma is a board certified psychiatrist and the author of Practical Optimism, a book that equips you with evidence-based tools and techniques to help you reach your career, financial, fitness, personal, and relationship goals more quickly and sustain momentum toward your future goals.   What we discuss…   (00:01) - Finding ways to connect with nature in daily life (08:25) - How to use practical optimism for intentional living  (18:14) - The dance of personal responsibility and finding proactive solutions  (27:39) - Differences between joy and happiness (and why it matters) (36:29) - The danger of toxic positivity and transformative impact of active listening  (53:41) - How material wealth effects your happiness  (01:03:42) - The transformative power of rest and journaling as a therapeutic outlet  (01:12:50) - Managing financial struggles and personal relationships (01:15:29) - Cultivating a rich and meaningful life through kindness and gratitude    …and more!   Don't forget: You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Cymbiotika: Visit Cymbiotika.com and use your exclusive code DARIN for 15% off.

Ayurveda has been around for over 3,000 years. It's a deeply rooted, traditional system of Indian medicine that's still a favored form of healthcare in large parts of the Eastern world.  It incorporates every single thing that you possibly need to know about how to create the most balanced, optimal, wonderful body, mind and spirit. And literally means longevity (Ayur) and knowledge (Veda).  In Western medicine we're constantly focused on a disease and a cure. Finding something ‘bad' and making it go away. But what if our way of life and healthcare was focused on balance, nourishment, and the joy of feeling ‘well'?  In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with Radhi Devlukia-Shetty, a plant based cook and ayurvedic student. Together we discuss the medicinal power of spices, such as nutmeg for restful sleep. The impact of daily practices like breathwork, meditation, and abhyanga (self-body massage). And personalized routines that embrace your unique nature for vitality and balance, including understanding your dosha.  Radhi Devlukia-Shetty is a plant based cook and recipe developer, mission-driven entrepreneur, well-being enthusiast, and a trained dietitian, nutritionist and ayurvedic student. Through her love of food she's on a mission to bring more joy into your life, more spice into your kitchen and more vitality into your body.    What we discuss… (00:00) - Ayurveda and how to love of food can transform your health and relationship with yourself  (08:58) - Essential daily practices for health and well-being - transformative meditation, nourishment, reducing inflammation, digestive health (19:29) - Exploring Ayurveda and the joys of plant-based eating  (23:41) - How to approach individualized healing through an Ayurvedic lens (28:15) - How understanding your dosha can optimize your health - through insights into temperament, dietary, and physical needs (42:58) - Watching out for nightshades in your diet - and what to do with them to lessen their effects  (57:48) - Finding balance and moderation in a world so desperate for us to be in pursuit of excess  …and more!   Don't forget: You can order now by heading to darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book or order now on Amazon.   Thank you to our sponsors: Manna Vitality: Go to www.mannavitality.com and use code DARIN12 at checkout for 12% off.

When you're thirsty what's the first thing you reach for? Though we'd all like to say it's a tall glass of fresh, filtered water. Chances are…it's a soda, concentrated fruit juice, or coffee.    With 10% of Americans not getting even an ounce of water a day, dehydration - paired with poor sleep and increasingly toxic environments - we're silently getting sicker and sicker.    But there is a solution!    In the latest episode of The Darin Olien Show, I sit down with my dear friend Chervin Jafarieh as we discuss the need for detoxification in Western health practices. He shares how dehydration is a major cause of toxin build up in the body. We also examine the fundamental ways our bodies encounter and process toxins, and how tapping into the breath plays a huge role in effective detoxification.    We also share the power of rituals where self-awareness and physical fitness are not just about health but about preparing for life's challenges.

Here's the truth: If you want to look younger on the outside, you need to become younger on the inside. There is a direct correlation between how healthy your body is internally with how young you look externally – and this is exactly what we dive into in this episode the Darin Olien Show with guest Dr. Anthony Youn. We dive into the concept of 'autojuvenation,' which refers to the body's natural regenerative abilities, why we should take a holistic health approach that focuses on aiding the body's own renewal processes for youthful vitality, and why we shouldn't be exclusively relying solely on surgical interventions. We also emphasize the importance of nutrition in medicine and how a deficiency in nutritional education among medical professionals needs to be addressed. Our discussion also covers the connection between gut health and aging, the significance of dietary choices on skin health and overall vitality, and the difference between chronological and biological age.  Dr. Anthony Youn is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Award-Winning Author, and Anti-Aging Expert and has a new book that just released: Younger for Life. As a successful plastic surgeon for twenty years who performed tens of thousands of successful cosmetic procedures – he realized that the key to true beauty lies in a holistic approach to youth and surgery should be a last resort.   Find more from Darin: Website: https://darinolien.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Darinolien/ Book: https://darinolien.com/fatal-conveniences-book/ Down to Earth: https://darinolien.com/down-to-earth/   Find more from Anthony: Get Dr. Youn's new book, Younger for Life: autojuvenation.com Website: https://www.dryoun.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tonyyounmd/  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@doctoryoun  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/tonyyounmd    Thank you to our sponsors: Bite: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

In this episode of the Darin Olien Show, we explore the connection between endocrine disruptors, microplastics, and heart health. My guest, Dr. Joel Khan discusses how these chemicals, which are pervasive in our environment, can disrupt the balance of hormones, increasing cholesterol levels, and thereby affecting our cardiovascular health.    Dr. Khan also dives into what diets are helping and hurting your heart health, the diet habits of different cultures around the world and how each has affected their health, the potential risks of meat consumption and the paleo/ketogenic diet, as well as the misconception around the need for animal protein to build muscle.    As one of the world's top cardiologists, having practiced traditional cardiology since 1983, Dr. Joel Kahn has treated thousands of acute heart attacks during his career. He'd like all that to stop. He'd like to prevent ALL future heart attacks by breaking through to the public to educate and inspire a new holistic lifestyle.   After his own commitment to a plant based vegan diet, he truly began to delve into the realm of non-traditional diagnostic tools, prevention tactics and nutrition-based recovery protocols. These ideologies led him to change his approach and focus on being a holistic cardiologist.   Thank you to our sponsors:  Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com  and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off.
