Podcasts about Fasting

If you want more time, better energy, and a calmer mind, this episode gives you a blueprint for achieving it. Host Dave Asprey talks with entrepreneur Jonathan Swanson, who explains how delegation functions as a powerful form of biohacking that frees cognitive load, improves sleep quality, protects your mitochondria from chronic stress, and opens space for longevity, brain optimization, supplements, fasting, ketosis, and the full Human Upgrade approach. Jonathan shows how eliminating low value tasks can reclaim hours every day and upgrade your human performance far more than people realize. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Jonathan Swanson is the Founder and Chairman of Thumbtack and Athena, two global companies he scaled to more than one thousand team members each. He has raised over seven hundred million dollars from leading investors including Sequoia Capital, Google Capital, and Blackstone. At Thumbtack he built one of the top marketplaces for local services. At Athena he created an elite academy for executive assistants and leadership development. Jonathan also served in the West Wing for the President's chief economic advisor, giving him rare insight into time leverage, decision making, and performance under pressure. Jonathan breaks down why overloaded to do lists elevate stress hormones, reduce neuroplasticity, interfere with recovery, and sabotage longevity goals. He explains how removing decision fatigue improves metabolism and cognitive function, how AI can accelerate human support instead of replacing it, and why even small forms of leverage increase ambition, resilience, and overall life satisfaction. Jonathan shares real examples from scaling billion dollar companies, building global teams, managing his own health routines, and designing systems that create more time for family, recovery, and meaningful work. You'll Learn: • Why leverage comes before ambition, not after, and how that shift changes what you believe is possible in your life • How Jonathan went from 16 to 18 hour days and polyphasic sleep to becoming a “time billionaire” through ruthless delegation • The cardinal sin of delegation, why doing it yourself feels faster at first, and how that belief traps you in busywork • The stages of delegation, from single tasks to projects to goals to “clairvoyant delegation,” where you first hear about a task when it is already done • How to start at any budget level, from using AI as a starter assistant, to hiring directly on global platforms, to working with a fully trained Athena EA • Practical ways an assistant can support biohacking, sleep optimization, supplements, lab tracking, family logistics, and even creative life projects • How to build trust, set boundaries, and protect security when you work with remote assistants who have access to sensitive parts of your life• Why human plus AI assistants beat AI alone, and how the next generation of support will supercharge human performance instead of replacing it • How to think about your hourly rate so you stop doing tasks that kill your metabolism, focus, and long term longevity Thank you to our sponsors! -BEYOND Conference 2026 | Register now at https://beyondconference.com/ -BrainTap | Go to http://braintap.com/dave to get $100 off the BrainTap Power Bundle. -Essentia | Go to https://myessentia.com/dave and use code DAVE for $100 off The Dave Asprey Upgrade. -Generation Lab | Go to http://generationlab.com/, use code Dave20 for $20 off, and see what your body's really doing behind the surface.

Your jaw influences far more than your face. This episode shows you how jaw strength shapes cognition, posture, airway health, sleep, metabolism, and overall human performance. You will learn how targeted jaw training increases cranial blood flow, improves neuromuscular coordination, strengthens airway stability, and stimulates facial muscles that modern diets no longer challenge. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey talks with Brandon Harris, founder and CEO of Jawzrsize. Brandon developed the device after multiple severe injuries, including a shattered jaw, months of immobilization, and a 13 day coma. His recovery forced him to rebuild his jaw strength from zero and revealed how deeply the jaw affects posture, oral health, proprioception, and cognitive function. Brandon's experience as a mixed martial artist and his early training of the masseter muscle guided the creation of a safe, medical grade jaw resistance system that now has small clinical data supporting improvements in strength, facial tone, Bruxism relief, and TMJ balance. You will hear how jaw alignment influences the nervous system, why weak jaws contribute to sleep apnea, how saliva flow ties oral health to gut health, and why resistance training for the jaw produces structural benefits the modern soft diet fails to provide. Host Dave Asprey explains how full range jaw training supports cranial stimulation, nitric oxide signaling, fascia activation, posture correction, and neuromuscular coordination throughout the body. This episode also explores how jaw mechanics connect to biohacking principles like brain optimization, sleep optimization, longevity, neuroplasticity, metabolic signaling, and strength based anti aging. This is essential listening for anyone focused on biohacking, human performance, posture mechanics, airway stability, TMJ function, oral microbiome health, anti aging, supplements that support structural function, nervous system training, and practical tools that create fast visible results. You'll Learn: • Why jaw strength acts as a foundational marker for performance and longevity • How jaw alignment shapes posture, proprioception, and neuromuscular firing • Why weak jaws contribute to sleep apnea, snoring, and airway collapse • How jaw training improves Bruxism, clenching, and TMJ tension • What increased cranial blood flow does for cognition and focus • How saliva production supports oral and gut health • Why modern diets shrink facial structure and weaken masseter strength • How jaw resistance training improves facial tone and reduces wrinkle depth • Why athletes use jaw activation to sharpen hand eye coordination • How range of motion training strengthens bone through piezoelectric signaling • Why even five minutes a day creates noticeable results in facial tone and alignment Thank you to our sponsors! -HeartMath | Go to https://www.heartmath.com/dave to save 15% off. -fatty15 | Go to https://fatty15.com/dave and save an extra $15 when you subscribe with code DAVE. -Quantum Upgrade | Go to https://quantumupgrade.io/Dave for a free trial.

Episode Summary: Have you ever noticed that sometimes the waiting feels almost better than the having? A child counting down the days until Christmas morning… the thrill of planning a vacation… even the little rush when you hear your phone buzz with a new message. That’s anticipation at work. But what if I told you that the very chemical in your brain that makes anticipation so powerful was actually designed by God to teach us something about Advent? Today we’re going to talk about dopamine, anticipation, and the kind of holy hope that not only prepares us for Christmas, but points us to the greater joy of Christ’s return. As we step into this Advent season, I want to share something that’s been on my heart—how anticipation affects our brain chemistry, our spiritual lives, and even the way we approach hope. Specifically, I want us to consider the beautiful connection between anticipation, dopamine, and Advent hope. Quotables from the episode: Did you know your brain starts celebrating before the party even begins? That’s right—long before you open the gift, taste the dessert, or hug the loved one, your brain is already releasing dopamine, the chemical of anticipation. But here’s the deeper truth: God wired us that way on purpose. Advent is the season where science and faith collide, inviting us to see how holy anticipation points our hearts beyond the moment to the eternal. In this episode of Your Hope Filled Perspective, you’ll learn how your brain chemistry mirrors the biblical call to wait with joyful hope. Anticipation is the act of looking forward to something. It’s more than just waiting—it’s waiting with expectancy. It’s that feeling when you know something is coming, and you start to prepare for it in your heart, in your mind, and sometimes even in your body. Think about a child waiting for Christmas morning. They might count down the days, peek under the tree, maybe even have trouble falling asleep on Christmas Eve. That’s anticipation. Anticipation can be both positive and negative. We can anticipate a joyful event—like a wedding, the birth of a child, or a holiday gathering—or we can anticipate something difficult, like a doctor’s appointment or a hard conversation. But here’s the key: anticipation changes the way we think, feel, and behave, even before the actual event takes place. Now let’s bring in a bit of brain science. You’ve probably heard of dopamine. It’s often referred to as the “feel-good chemical,” but that’s not entirely accurate. Dopamine isn’t about pleasure itself—it’s about anticipation of pleasure. When our brains release dopamine, it motivates us to pursue something. It’s tied to the reward system in our brains. For example, when you anticipate a delicious meal, your brain releases dopamine—not when you’re eating the food, but when you think about eating it. Dopamine helps us focus, motivates us to take action, and gives us energy to pursue what we expect will be rewarding. Here’s an example: Have you ever noticed that planning a vacation can be almost as enjoyable as the vacation itself? That’s because anticipation—through dopamine—creates joy, motivation, and excitement. Now here’s where it gets interesting. When we lack healthy anticipation—when we don’t have things to look forward to—dopamine levels can drop, leading to discouragement, low motivation, and even depression. But God, in His wisdom, created us with this system of anticipation for a reason. He designed our brains to look forward, to seek reward, to long for something beyond the present moment. Advent is a season of holy anticipation. For centuries, Christians have marked the four weeks before Christmas as a time of preparation, reflection, and expectation. We look back and remember the long anticipation of Israel waiting for the promised Messiah. And we look forward in anticipation of Christ’s second coming. Advent teaches us not to rush through waiting but to savor it, to sit in it, to let it shape our hearts. In the same way dopamine motivates us to move toward something good, Advent hope motivates us to move toward God’s promises. Think about Simeon and Anna in Luke chapter 2. They spent their lives anticipating the Messiah. The Holy Spirit had revealed to Simeon that he would not die before seeing the Lord’s Christ. Imagine the daily anticipation he must have lived with. And then one day, he held the baby Jesus in his arms and declared, “My eyes have seen your salvation.” That is the fulfillment of holy anticipation. And yet, we too live in anticipation. We celebrate Jesus’ birth, yes—but we also anticipate His return. That’s what Advent reminds us: we live between the “already” and the “not yet.” Jesus has come, and Jesus is coming again. Here’s the challenge. In our culture, anticipation often gets hijacked. We anticipate Amazon packages, text message replies, or the next social media notification. Those things give us little dopamine hits, but they don’t satisfy our souls. If we’re not careful, we can train our brains to anticipate the wrong things—things that don’t last, things that can’t fulfill us. But Advent invites us to retrain our anticipation. Instead of craving fleeting rewards, we can learn to anticipate eternal hope. So, let’s ask ourselves: What am I anticipating most right now? Is it something temporary, or is it something eternal? How can I align my anticipation with God’s promises? Romans 8:24–25 says, “For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.” That’s the essence of anticipation: waiting with patience, grounded in hope. Let me suggest a few practical steps: Build rhythms of anticipation. Light an Advent candle each week. Read the Scriptures that point to Christ’s coming. These small practices create anticipation and remind your brain and your spirit of the greater hope to come. Practice gratitude in the waiting. Each time you feel anticipation rising—whether for a holiday gathering or even for your morning coffee—use it as a cue to thank God for something eternal. Gratitude shifts dopamine toward holy anticipation. Anchor your anticipation in God’s promises. Write down verses about Christ’s return. For example, John 14:3, where Jesus says, “I will come back and take you to be with me.” Let those promises fuel your waiting. Fast from empty anticipations. Maybe that means stepping back from constant scrolling or instant gratification. Fasting helps retrain our brains to anticipate what truly matters. Invite others into your anticipation. Just as Israel anticipated the Messiah together, we’re called to wait together. Share your Advent reflections with a friend or family member. Encourage one another with the hope of Christ’s return. When we put all this together, here’s what we see: Neuroscience shows us that anticipation releases dopamine, motivating us to move toward something good. Scripture shows us that God designed us to live in anticipation of His promises. Advent reminds us to direct our anticipation toward Christ—His birth, His presence in our lives today, and His return. When we align our brains’ natural anticipation system with God’s eternal hope, we experience deeper joy, stronger faith, and renewed strength to endure seasons of waiting. Friend, whatever you’re anticipating right now, I encourage you to lift it before the Lord. Maybe you’re anticipating something wonderful, or maybe you’re anticipating something hard. Either way, God meets us in our waiting. As we journey through Advent, let’s allow anticipation to become not a source of stress or distraction, but a holy reminder that our ultimate hope is in Christ. Would you pray with me? “Heavenly Father, thank You for designing our minds and our hearts to anticipate. Thank You for sending Jesus, the fulfillment of centuries of anticipation, and thank You for the promise that He will come again. Help us, Lord, to direct our anticipation toward what is eternal and true. Strengthen us in seasons of waiting and fill us with hope as we remember that You are faithful to every promise. In Jesus’ name, Amen.” As you move through this Advent season, may you live with holy anticipation—not just for the joys of Christmas, but for the greater joy of Christ’s return.

Most people stay locked in a constant sympathetic state without realizing it, which drains focus, sleep quality, emotional balance, and long-term resilience. This episode gives you a science backed path to retrain your nervous system, improve heart rate variability, and shift out of stress on command using focused ultrasound technology that targets the vagus nerve. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey talks with Jon Hacker, CEO of NeurGear and creator of ZenBud. Jon is a biomedical engineer who has dedicated his career to bridging neuroscience and daily wellness. His work includes peer reviewed clinical research on anxiety, PTSD, autonomic regulation, and non invasive vagus nerve stimulation. He is one of the first innovators to bring focused ultrasound out of the lab and into a practical wearable designed to help people regulate state, build resilience, and create more conscious control over their biology. In this conversation, Dave and Jon break down how ultrasound activates the auricular branch of the vagus nerve, why most electrical vagus nerve devices fail, and what actually happens in the first three to five minutes when the system begins shifting out of sympathetic activation. Jon explains how early trauma wires the autonomic system, why chronic stress is often physiological rather than psychological, and how daily stimulation strengthens vagal tone through Hebbian learning. They also explore how HRV reflects hidden state changes, how nervous system training supports clearer thinking and better emotional regulation, and why this type of tech matters as AI, algorithms, and modern stressors continue to push people into dysregulated states. You'll Learn: • Why sympathetic dominance is so widespread in the modern environment • How the vagus nerve influences stress, recovery, inflammation, and emotional balance • What makes focused ultrasound more precise than electrical vagus nerve stimulation • How ZenBud produced a 78 percent remission rate in clinical anxiety research • How early trauma alters autonomic patterns and keeps people in hidden fight or flight • How three to five minutes of stimulation can reset state during panic or overwhelm • Why daily use strengthens vagal tone and builds long term resilience • How HRV training, consciousness practices, and nervous system workouts fit together • Why noninvasive brain interfaces may become the safer future path as AI advances This episode is essential for anyone interested in biohacking, stress physiology, nervous system training, emotional regulation, HRV, meditation, trauma recovery, longevity, and building a more adaptable brain and body. It gives you a practical look at how the autonomic system really works and how focused ultrasound may change the future of human performance. Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living.

In this research-driven episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling break down a comprehensive meta-analysis comparing multiple intermittent fasting protocols, revealing what actually works for sustainable weight loss and metabolic health improvement. They examine alternate day fasting, 5:2 fasting, and time-restricted eating, comparing outcomes for weight loss, cholesterol improvements, insulin resistance reduction, and long-term adherence rates. The hosts deliver crucial perspective on the trade-offs between aggressive protocols that produce faster results versus sustainable baseline approaches that support consistency through life's challenges. With the holiday season in full swing between Thanksgiving and Christmas, they provide a realistic framework for maintaining progress without perfectionism or all-or-nothing thinking. This episode helps you understand why chasing the fastest results often backfires, how to customize fasting protocols to match your lifestyle, and why taking the pressure off during the holidays—while maintaining a simple 16:8 baseline—can actually set you up for greater long-term success than aggressive restriction followed by complete abandonment of your fasting practice. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

Most of us have heard about the health benefits of fasting; from lowering disease risk to even slowing down ageing. The catch? Going without food is tough. Really tough. However, according to Dr. Valter Longo, it doesn't have to be so hard. His pioneering research, including the development of the ‘fast-mimicking diet', is making fasting more practical and accessible for everyone. Today, Valter joins Tim Spector and I to explain how a pause from food transforms the way our cells behave, and how you can make fasting part of your life.

How mindset, hunger management, and practical tools can make fasting easier and more sustainable. Episode #235

In this episode, Ben breaks down why a simple 24-hour water fast can outperform Ozempic for fat loss, metabolic health, and longevity. While Ozempic forces weight loss through slowed digestion and appetite suppression, it also causes muscle loss, reduced metabolism, and hormonal disruption. Fasting, on the other hand, works with your biology to burn fat and heal your body at the deepest cellular level. Ben walks through the hour-by-hour changes that happen during a 24-hour fast — from insulin dropping within the first four hours, to visceral fat mobilizing at fourteen hours, to autophagy and growth hormone peaking at twenty-four hours. He explains how fasting naturally boosts metabolism, protects muscle, reduces inflammation, supports mitochondrial function, and repairs the gut and digestive system. You'll learn the exact protocol for a safe 24-hour fast, what to drink, how to break it properly, and the common fasting mistakes to avoid. Ben also answers listener questions about stress, supplements, nausea, cold sensitivity, and the best time of day to start a fast for maximum results. The message is clear: Ozempic suppresses. Fasting heals.This episode shows you why fasting is one of the most powerful — and completely free — metabolic tools available.

This podcast is listener-supported. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.In this episode of Food for Thought, I explore the long, often-forgotten history of abstaining from meat during Advent and other Christian fasting periods, and how that tradition actually aligns beautifully with a modern vegan lifestyle.Drawing from my own Catholic upbringing, I look at how rites and rituals like Lent and Advent once emphasized simplicity, self-restraint, and giving up animal products, and how language, church rules, and holiday foods still carry traces of that history.I also invite listeners—religious or not—to consider their own version of conscious “fasting,” and I touch on traditional Advent/Christmas foods like Stollen that grew out of these practices.Here's the video version of the introduction to the re-broadcast:In this episode, you'll learn:* Historically, Christians spent more days not eating meat (and often other animal products) than eating it, especially around Lent and Advent.* The idea that being vegan is “incompatible” with culture or religion is new; religious abstinence from animal products is centuries old.* Words like “Carnival” (from carne levare – “remove meat”) and traditions like Meatfare/Cheesefare Sundays reflect this meatless history.* Advent used to be a serious season of fasting and abstinence, not just a time of treats, shopping, and countdown calendars.* Different Christian traditions (especially Eastern and Ethiopian Orthodox) still practice very strict, essentially vegan fasts for many days of the year.* Over time, church rules relaxed, and meat-eating became normalized and constant, while fasting became optional or symbolic.* You don't have to be religious to embrace the spirit of fasting: you can choose to simplify your diet, give something up (like alcohol, sugar, eating out, or processed foods), and let the feast feel more meaningful at the end.* Many beloved holiday foods—like Stollen, fruitcake, and other Advent breads and sweets—arose from these traditions of fasting, scarcity, and then feasting.* Part 2 will dive into Christmas feasting and traditional foods tied to the 12 Days of Christmas and Twelfth Night.Support the PodcastTo keep Food for Thought Podcast ad-free and accessible to all, I rely on the support of paid subscribers.

This episode of The Better Life with Dr Pinkston features Dr Pinkston and Ray Solano from PD Labs, focusing on how to navigate and survive the holidays—dubbed the "Super Bowl of Sugar" (Halloween to Valentine's Day)—without derailing your health goals. The discussion centers on research challenging restrictive dieting, suggesting that unrestricted eating of nutritious food, layered with non-digestible fiber (nuts, seeds, berries) to slow sugar absorption, can offer similar benefits to fasting without the negative effects. Key Takeaways: Mindful Holiday Strategy: The holidays are a time for balance and not gaining weight, rather than focusing intensely on losing it. The Problem with Restriction: Restrictive diets (like extreme keto or carnivore) can backfire psychologically and physically. Research suggests high protein without proper carbohydrates can negatively affect longevity. The "Eat Human" Approach: Focus on a common-sense approach: avoid processed foods, know your intolerances, and aim for a balance of protein, fat, and carbs (suggested ratio: 40% protein, 30% fat, 30% carb) in every meal. Breakfast is Key: Start the day with high protein (40 grams) to stabilize blood sugars, reducing cravings later. Avoid traditional high-carb breakfasts like instant oatmeal. Stay Hydrated & Stress-Free: Managing stress with simple supplements like Magnesium Glycinate and Theanine (or cortisol managers like Triquillata) is crucial, as stress often leads to poor eating choices. Next-Generation Health: Ray Solano introduces PD Labs' work on peptides (like the GLP-1 incretins) and their innovative two-year project to make these high-molecular-weight molecules available transdermally (non-injectable) by Christmas, transforming chronic disease prevention. The conversation emphasizes starting your health recovery journey now, not waiting for a "magical time" in January.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Vitamin C, copper peptides, and glutathione behave very differently once you understand how skin absorbs nutrients at the cellular level. This episode shows you how to target collagen production, strengthen mitochondria, improve detox capacity, and upgrade skin density with pharmaceutical grade delivery systems that outperform conventional skincare. You learn why most topical antioxidants never reach their intended targets, how intracellular copper changes longevity pathways, why glutathione affects everything from pigmentation to detox, and how to build a streamlined routine that matches the way high level biohackers actually age. These strategies can help you improve collagen, elasticity, hair density, mitochondrial function, and whole body performance with fewer steps and far more impact. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey talks with Dr. Nayan Patel, a pharmacist, wellness expert, and industry leader who has worked with physicians since 1999 to design custom medications and patient specific protocols. He has been the pharmacist of choice for celebrities, CEOs, and medical professionals seeking precision level formulations. Dr. Patel is the author of The Glutathione Revolution, which summarizes more than a decade of clinical research on glutathione. His team created a patented transdermal technology that delivers glutathione systemically through the skin, and he has since expanded this work to include advanced peptides and new delivery systems that improve absorption far beyond standard topical products. He also developed the Auro GSH Antioxidant Delivery System, a skincare line that uses pharmaceutical grade ingredients at potent concentrations to achieve deeper penetration and more reliable biological effects. Together they break down why vitamin C acts as a stimulant that drives collagen rather than a classic antioxidant, how GHK copper peptide thickens aging skin, and why retinoids often speed up cell turnover at the cost of long term resilience. Dr. Patel explains the difference between cosmetic grade and injectable grade peptides, why purity matters when a delivery system pushes molecules deep into the skin, and how zinc overuse has created widespread copper deficiency that affects hair, metabolism, and mitochondrial health. Dave shares his own protocols for using GHK, glutathione, and vitamin C, along with practical dosing strategies that create visible changes in skin density within four to six weeks. You will learn: • How vitamin C stimulates collagen and why glutathione regenerates oxidized antioxidants • How GHK copper peptide improves elasticity, firmness, and structural integrity • Why purity, molecular size, and delivery tech determine whether peptides actually reach target tissues • How topical copper supports intracellular stores and influences hair health and metabolism • Why zinc overload causes silent copper deficiency and what it means for longevity • How targeted glutathione improves detox, pigmentation, and oxidative stress • The fastest protocol for visible skin density improvements and how long results take to show • How to combine these tools with lasers and skin procedures for stronger outcomes Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

We check the markets often—but how often do we check our hearts? Most of us approach investing with calculators, not character. Yet Scripture calls us to a deeper way. What if investing isn't just a financial activity but a spiritual practice—one that shapes who we're becoming?Tim McCready, Head of Global Advisory at BrightLight (part of the Eversource Wealth Advisors team), has been helping both Kingdom Advisors and FaithFi develop a theological framework for investing that aligns our portfolios—and our hearts—with God's purposes. His recent work explores how timeless spiritual disciplines can transform how believers think about investing.Why Investing Requires a Spiritual LensTim begins with Jesus' words in Matthew 6: “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” That's not just a warning—it's an insight into spiritual formation.“Our investment decisions aren't just a reflection of faithfulness,” Tim says. “They're shaping who we're becoming as we seek to be like Jesus.”When we invite God into our investment decisions, investing becomes more than strategy—it becomes worship. It becomes one more place where we ask God to form us into faithful stewards.The Ignatian Prayer of Examen—For InvestorsOne of the most compelling ideas Tim introduces is applying the historic Ignatian prayer of examen to our portfolios.For centuries, believers have ended their day with this reflective practice—examining God's presence, confessing sin, noticing grace, and preparing for tomorrow.Tim suggests: What if investors practiced something similar?Rather than viewing portfolios strictly through analysis or performance, the examen helps us approach them with discernment, surrender, and spiritual attentiveness.Step One: GratitudeGratitude quiets the noise and recenters us on God's generosity. Before looking at performance or market movements, Tim encourages investors to pause and thank God for His provision.It might sound something like:“Heavenly Father, thank You for the gifts You've entrusted to me—including my investment portfolio. Speak to me about my stewardship, challenge me, and remind me of Your faithfulness as I draw near to You.”Gratitude reframes everything. It reminds us that portfolios are gifts to steward—not trophies to admire nor securities to cling to.Step Two: ReviewJust as the daily examen invites believers to review their day, the investing examen invites us to review each line of our portfolio with prayerful reflection.This simple discipline lifts our eyes beyond numbers to the impact our investments have on people, communities, and the world.As Tim notes, “We may find both joy and conviction—joy where God is pleased, and invitation where He's calling us to change.”Step Three: Repentance and RenewalThis is where the examen moves from reflection to transformation.Perhaps we discover that we've placed too much security in our portfolio. Perhaps a certain investment feels misaligned with God's desires. Perhaps God prompts us toward greater generosity.Repentance helps us acknowledge these areas honestly—and renewal invites us to receive God's forgiveness and step forward in faith.A simple prayer might be:“Gracious Provider, rule over every part of my life, including my investments. Forgive me for trusting wealth over You. Give me courage to act where You lead, and joy in following Your plan for my life.”This step reorients our trust away from the market and back toward the One who “owns the cattle on a thousand hills.” (Psalm 50:10)Step Four: Community and AccountabilityThough investing can feel private, it was never meant to be isolated.We grow best in community. Sharing a budget or portfolio with a trusted friend or mentor is humbling—but powerful. Accountability exposes blind spots, clarifies values, and encourages faithfulness.Whether through a small group, a stewardship class, or a community like the FaithFi app, transparency invites God's wisdom through God's people.Step Five: Fasting from Market NoiseWe live in an era of constant market updates, by the day, hour, and minute. Tim points out that this flood of data gives the illusion of control while feeding anxiety.A spiritual practice of “fasting” from market noise—checking less often, turning off notifications, stepping back from constant updates—helps us rest in God's provision instead of reacting to every market swing.Jesus' question echoes here: “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?” (Matthew 6:27) Or, as Tim puts it, “add a single cent to your portfolio?”Step Six: ServiceSpiritually formed investors naturally turn outward. Financial experience is a gift meant to serve others—whether through mentoring, teaching budgeting, serving on a church finance committee, or helping younger believers develop healthy habits.Service transforms stewardship from something we manage to something we multiply.A Holistic Vision of Faithful InvestingWhen we bring together gratitude, review, repentance, community, fasting, and service, we begin to see investing not as a sterile financial exercise but as a rhythm of worship.“Investing is faithfulness,” Tim reminds us. “It forms us. It shapes us as disciples. A biblical approach to investing isn't measured only by returns, but by spiritual formation.”In other words, investing becomes a way to follow Jesus. A biblical worldview of investing doesn't start with performance—it begins with the heart. When we invite God into our investing, He uses even financial decisions to form us into the likeness of Christ.May our portfolios—and our hearts—reflect the One who has entrusted everything to us.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I worked hard to raise my credit score to about 730, but a miscommunication with my student loan led to a late payment and brought it down to 548.

Fasting is everywhere these days, but most traditional fasting approaches are too harsh when you have Hashimoto's. Long stretches without food can feel destabilizing, draining, and completely unrealistic for a thyroid that is already under stress. However there is a different approach called fasting mimicking that creates the deeper cellular benefits of fasting while you are still eating real food. Fasting mimicking has been heavily researched for decades and is designed to activate the same fasting pathways that support things like metabolism, energy, longevity, and overall cellular renewal. Instead of pushing the body into stress, it uses precise nutrients that keep the fasting response going while still providing nourishment, which makes it far more compatible with the needs of someone living with Hashimoto's. It also offers an approachable way to support weight, inflammation, and metabolic health without cutting calories to extremes or spiking cortisol.This is the kind of information that changes how you think about fasting altogether and incredibly relevant if regular fasting has ever made you feel worse instead of better. This episode is a must listen, and if you want to try fasting mimicking for yourself, you can do that here and please use code "FASTING" for 20% OFF!For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/203-fasting-thyroid-hashimotos-renee-fitton/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training atInnaTopiler.com/zoomcall

Is your body running on broken engines?We often obsess over what we eat, but we rarely think about how our cells process that fuel. If your mitochondria (the engines of your cells) are dysfunctional, it doesn't matter how perfect your diet is—you will feel tired, you will recover slowly, and you will age faster.In this episode, we sit down with Brad Currier, a PhD in muscle physiology and scientist at Timeline, to discuss Urolithin A—the breakthrough molecule that acts as a "recycling program" for your cells. Brad reveals why natural food sources are virtually impossible to rely on (you'd need to drink 1.5 liters of juice daily), how this molecule compares to fasting for longevity, and the shocking data coming out of studies with Olympic athletes.In this episode, you will learn:The "Junkyard" Theory: Why mitochondrial dysfunction is the root cause of low energy and poor recovery.Mitophagy Explained: How to trigger the selective breakdown of "zombie" mitochondria to build fresh, healthy ones.The Pomegranate Reality Check: Why you can't eat your way to therapeutic levels of Urolithin A (and the sugar cost of trying).Fasting vs. MitoPure: The difference between "global" starvation (fasting) and "surgical" cellular repair.Olympic Secrets: How elite runners are using this specific protocol to lower perceived exertion and muscle damage.The Future of Longevity: How this impacts not just muscle, but skin, immune health, and cognitive function.Timeline Mitopure Gummies: GET 20% Off Now!

In this foundational episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling explore why fasting insulin may be the most critical yet overlooked health metric for preventing chronic disease and achieving lasting weight loss. They break down insulin's essential roles throughout the body—from brain health and bone growth to muscle building and hormone production—while explaining how insulin resistance silently develops years before diabetes diagnosis. The hosts reveal why standard medical testing focuses on downstream markers like fasting glucose and A1C instead of measuring insulin directly, and they provide practical guidance on how to order your own fasting insulin test for as little as $20. They discuss optimal insulin ranges based on leading researchers, explain the HOMA-IR calculation for assessing insulin resistance, and deliver actionable strategies including time-restricted eating, protein prioritization, zone two exercise, and stress management. This episode empowers you to become your own health advocate by understanding and optimizing this upstream marker that connects to eight of the top ten causes of mortality. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers and Vanessa Spina break down new human research showing why high protein doesn't block autophagy when calories are low. You'll learn how this changes everything we've believed about protein timing, fasting, and cellular repair. The conversation also reveals why prioritizing protein can accelerate fat loss without sacrificing muscle.   You'll hear how protein impacts appetite, hormones, and metabolic flexibility—and why many people overeat simply because they're under-consuming essential amino acids. Vanessa explains the protein leverage effect and how it naturally reduces cravings, stabilizes blood sugar, and makes eating "effortlessly" satisfying. These insights can help you rethink how you build your daily meals.   You'll discover why certain fasting styles can increase visceral fat loss, support hormonal balance, and boost performance. Expect a mix of science, real-world application, and surprising findings you may not have heard before.     In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction and Exciting New Study 00:21 Welcome and Guest Introduction 00:30 Deep Dive into the New Study 01:52 Vanessa Spina's Expertise and Background 05:47 Interview with Vanessa Spina Begins 06:15 Discussion on Protein Absorption Study 14:04 Personal Experiences with Protein and Fasting 16:55 Debunking Protein Myths 18:10 Nutrition Principles and Protein Prioritization 22:23 Ketones, Satiety, and Inflammation 27:07 Balancing Hormones and Stress 31:17 Understanding Autophagy and Protein Intake 32:35 The Importance of Human Trials in Research 35:11 Study on High Protein Fasting Mimicking Diet 38:38 Results and Implications of the Study 42:18 Personal Experiences with Protein-Sparing Modified Fasting 45:32 Practical Tips for Implementing Protein-Sparing Modified Fasting 57:54 Comparing Different Fasting Approaches 01:01:13 Conclusion and Final Thoughts   Hydration is one of the fastest ways to boost your energy, sharpen your focus, curb cravings, and even improve the look and feel of your skin — but water alone isn't enough.

Most people think you need sweat, strain, or long workouts to upgrade circulation, metabolism, and energy. What if your body could unlock all of that while you stand still? This episode reveals how to get a full body workout by doing absolutely nothing, and why a few minutes of targeted vibration can activate nitric oxide, improve microcirculation, calm your nervous system, and relieve the hidden damage from sitting all day. Host Dave Asprey shows you why the simplest biohack in the room might be the most powerful one you are not using. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Tommy Rhee, DC, a board-certified chiropractor known for his innovative approach to sports medicine and regenerative therapy. Dr. Rhee has treated professional athletes, starting NFL quarterbacks, and everyday people who want better mobility and faster recovery. He served as the official team chiropractor for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and worked with multiple UCLA athletic programs. He also created RheeGen, a patent-pending topical transdermal stem cell cream that introduces a non-invasive path to tissue repair and pain relief. His book, The Future of Regenerative Medicine, outlines how topical stem cell treatments can transform performance and healing. Dr. Rhee's background as a U.S. Navy aircrew member aboard S-3 Viking jets gives him a precision-driven understanding of human performance, resilience, and stress adaptation. In this episode, Dr. Rhee explains why whole body vibration works as a cheat code for circulation, fascia mobility, balance, mood, and nitric oxide activation. He shows how vibration increases microcirculation in places your workouts never reach, why it boosts lymphatic flow better than walking, and how it sends rapid-fire sensory signals that improve proprioception and stress recovery. You also learn why older adults benefit even more from this simple tool, how athletes use it as a warmup to conserve energy, and why three plane vibration dramatically outperforms cheap two dimensional devices. Dave and Dr. Rhee show you how to pair vibration with fasting, ketosis, nootropics, supplements, Danger Coffee, and Smarter Not Harder style training for maximum biohacking efficiency. You'll Learn: • How to mimic the benefits of a full workout while standing still • Why nitric oxide drives circulation, longevity, and metabolic health • How vibration accelerates lymphatic drainage and clears stagnation • Why whole body vibration improves balance, sensory speed, and neuroplasticity • How athletes warm up with vibration to protect energy reserves • Why triplanar vibration beats two dimensional devices for real results • How vibration supports pelvic floor strength and erectile function • How to use vibration for joint protection, fascia mobility, and mitochondrial activation • The daily protocol Dr. Rhee uses for stress relief, mood, and brain optimization Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Breathwork is one of the most powerful tools in biohacking, yet most people only experience the surface level techniques. When you use it the right way, breathwork can upgrade your brain, strengthen your nervous system, improve sleep, and open awareness states that amplify longevity and human performance. This episode features Ishan Shivanand, a globally celebrated yogic scholar, mental health researcher, and bestselling author who was raised in the monasteries of India under Mahasiddha Avdhoot Shivanand. He carries one of the world's oldest Shiv Yogi lineages and created the clinically validated Yoga of Immortals method, which has helped millions reverse anxiety, depression, insomnia, burnout, and trauma. Together, Host Dave Asprey and Ishan reveal how lineage level breath practices shape consciousness, neuroplasticity, and emotional resilience. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey and Ishan explore the full arc of ancient yogic training, from how breathwork directs prana through the body to how chanting alters brain states, emotional regulation, and nervous system function. They break down the role of visualization in building neuroplasticity, the symbolism and physics of sacred sound, and the science of moving awareness through the spine. The conversation moves into rarely discussed topics including the yogic art of choosing one's death, how advanced practitioners leave the body, the meaning of immortality in spiritual traditions, and how dharma shapes whether long life becomes a blessing or a burden. You will hear how ancient monks trained through martial arts, mantra repetition, sacred geometry, gold symbolism, alchemy, and the cultivation of higher states of consciousness, and how these practices compare to modern biohacking tools like fasting, ketosis, nootropics, supplements, sleep optimization, functional medicine, and mitochondrial support. This episode shows you how Eastern mystical training and Western performance science intersect and how these teachings fit naturally within the Smarter Not Harder framework. This conversation also covers plant medicine, psychedelics, and the difference between ancient ceremonial use and modern recreational misuse. You will hear how lineage based training uses breath, awareness, and mantra to alter redox balance, regulate the autonomic nervous system, strengthen energy production, and shape brain optimization at the deepest levels. You'll Learn: • Why breathwork changes brain states faster than basic meditation and how it drives neuroplasticity • How chanting affects the vagus nerve, emotional regulation, and nervous system balance • How visualization strengthens nerve pathways, trauma resolution, and sleep optimization • The meaning behind sacred sound, vibration, and the origins of consciousness in ancient lineage training • Why monks train with martial arts, mantra repetition, and sacred geometry to enhance awareness • How yogic philosophy approaches immortality, choosing one's death, and leaving the body consciously • Why dharma shapes whether long life becomes a blessing or a curse • How plant medicine differs when used ceremonially versus recreationally • How to integrate these teachings into your own longevity, performance, and human potential strategy Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.
