When you search online for ways to live a healthy life, you're bombarded by charismatic speakers, some with medical degrees or PhDs, promising miracle cures. From cancer treatments to fat-burning morning rituals and an endless array of supplements claiming to unlock the fountain of youth, the noise is overwhelming. Some of these claims contain a grain of truth; others are pure fiction. But in nearly every case, they distract from what truly matters—focusing on minor details that won't meaningfully impact your health tomorrow, next year, or even a decade from now. The fundamentals of health, fitness, and longevity may not be flashy, but they are essential. In this week's podcast, we hear from a PhD researcher and educator whose work focuses on healthspan and longevity. Listen and learn: Why the science community often lacks the communication and marketing skills for their ideas How quickly simply-sounding health data can be misinterpreted The real risk of sarcopenia (muscle loss) and what to do about it Why your health in later life is often the compounding of small behaviors over years or decades Links: www.rachelepojednic.com @rachelepojednic About Our Guest: Dr. Rachele Pojednic is a researcher specializing in human performance and healthy aging, serving as the Director of Scientific Research at Restore Hyperwellness and a faculty member in Stanford's Program in Human Biology. She also leads education at Stanford Lifestyle Medicine and is a research affiliate at Harvard Medical School's Institute of Lifestyle Medicine. With a PhD in nutritional biochemistry from Tufts and postdoctoral training at Harvard, her work explores the impact of nutrition, supplementation, and physical activity on muscle physiology and longevity.

Is the human microbiome an endangered species? Dr. Martin Blaser, author of "Missing Microbes: How the Overuse of Antibiotics Is Fueling Our Modern Plagues," has also been featured in a documentary, The Invisible Extinction, that explores the dire consequences of our depleted microbiomes. Antibiotic overuse, C-sections, lack of breast-feeding, ultra-processed food, lack of exposure to nature, and chlorinated water conspire to deplete our bodies of beneficial bacteria; these imbalances in intestinal flora have profound, far-reaching effects, not just on digestive disorders, but on immunity, metabolism, and brain function. Conditions like insulin resistance, obesity, Parkinson's Disease, depression and anxiety, and many more have been linked to microbiome deficits. What lessons do stool samples from indigenous peoples offer us? There may be a transgenerational effect of microbiome depletion. Dr. Blaser has gone so far as to advocate a Microbiome Vault to preserve our bacterial heritage. Are fecal transplants and poop pills the answer? “Vaginal seeding”? What role do high-fiber diets play? Are fermented foods beneficial? What about probiotics? Dr. Blaser describes measures we need to take now to recover our microbial diversity.
