Podcasts about healthy aging

Absolutely no one warned us that midlife would be this loud—hot flashes, achy joints, bone density, belly fat, all competing for attention at once. And yet the message women still get is, “This is just how it is.”In this episode, I'm joined by orthopedic sports surgeon and longevity visionary Dr. Vonda Wright, author of Unbreakable: A Woman's Guide to Aging with Power. We dig into what it really takes to stay strong, mobile, and independent for decades—so you can carry your own groceries at 80 and stay out of the nursing home.We cover:Why bones are an endocrine organ (yes, your skeleton is talking to the rest of your body)The truth about osteoporosis, fracture risk, and why waiting until 65 for a DEXA is a terrible strategyHow to safely use impact, heavy lifting, and sprint intervals even if you've been told to “be careful”The role of estrogen, testosterone, and vitamin D in bone and muscle healthProtein, leucine, vegan vs animal sources—and why under-proteining is keeping you weak and inflamedWeighted vests, jumping, Pilates and yoga: what actually moves the needle for strength and longevityIf you're a woman in perimenopause, menopause, or beyond—and you want denser bones, stronger muscles, better balance, and a body that can keep up with the life you want—this conversation is your blueprint.

In Episode 237, in conversation with Dr. Gillian Lockitch, Scott Fulton reframes "successful aging" as more years, more moments, more money. He unpacks his MEDAC model—Mind, Environment, Diet, Activity, Community—and shows how small, practical tweaks compound: design homes for longevity, manage toxin exposure sensibly, eat for quality/variety/fiber, move all day (not just "exercise"), train balance, and build supportive community. They also explore simple ways to measure what matters and why stepping outside your comfort zone is a powerful aging tool. Scott Fulton is a longevity educator and positive-aging innovator whose work sits at the intersection of health and housing. He teaches adult learners about healthspan and aging (Northwestern, UVA, University of Delaware), created the MEDAC system (Mind, Environment, Diet, Activity, Community), is a member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and the True Health Initiative Council, and served as President of the National Aging in Place Council. He and his wife live in Charlottesville, VA, in a demonstration home designed for optimal aging.   Timeline: 00:00 – 03:20 | Why "Wealthspan" now Gillian's introduction: aging is inevitable, poor health isn't. Scott's thesis: extend health, life, and financial security—so you can collect more meaningful moments.  03:21 – 09:58 | Designing a home that ages with you One-step entries, wider doors, "free-flow" layouts, smart use of terrain. Beauty + function beats "clinical" design and prevents future injuries/barriers.  09:59 – 18:13 | From big systems to positive aging, Scott's career pivot: apply systems thinking to aging. Against siloed care; for measurable, holistic balance (homeostasis) and innovation that actually changes outcomes.  18:14 – 26:59 | MEDAC: Mind & Environment Stay curious; protect cognition. Shape two environments: your home and your exposures. You can't avoid toxins entirely—reduce risk and diversify behaviors.  27:00 – 31:53 | MEDAC: Diet & Activity Start with quality, add variety, and count fiber. Activity ≠ just workouts: build cardio, strength, balance, and move through the day to fight sedentariness.  31:54 – 40:52 | MEDAC: Community + Resilience & the "one bold thing" rule Social connection protects brain and practical living. Gillian and Scott on mindset, brain training, and choosing something outside your comfort zone to spark growth.  Learn about Scott Fulton and his book. https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottfultonentrepreneur/ https://www.youtube.com/@whealthspan Download your Gift: Guide to Nature's Colourful Antioxidants.  Book a one-on-one call with Dr. Gillian Lockitch    Join the Growing Older Living Younger Community 

Nutrient Deficiencies and Their Link to Alzheimer's Disease and Diabetes Risk in Night Owls: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses research findings linking nutrient deficiencies to Alzheimer's disease and how diet and supplementation can play a crucial role in prevention. She highlights the importance of antioxidants like lutein, zeaxanthin, and lycopene for brain health and their potential to reduce Alzheimer's risk. Leyla also delves into the connection between evening chronotypes ('night owls') and an increased risk of diabetes, emphasizing the role of lifestyle factors and offering suggestions for healthier sleep habits. She encourages listeners to maintain a diet rich in carotenoids for better cognition and eye health, and to adjust sleeping patterns for overall well-being.

Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson, who co-discovered the C15 essential fatty acid, returns to the podcast to discuss her new book “The Longevity Nutrient: The Unexpected Fat That Holds the Key to Healthy Aging.” In The Longevity Nutrient, She unveils the science behind the first essential fatty acid to be discovered in nearly a hundred years. Research on this ingredient shows that is may be crucial for combating chronic aging-associated diseases. Dr. Venn-Watson is a veterinary epidemiologist with more than 80 peer-reviewed scientific publications and 70 patents. She is the co-founder and CEO of Seraphina Therapeutics, a company that develops and sells health and wellness products based on the C15 fatty acid. She discovered the health benefits of C15 while working for the U.S. Navy to continually improve the long-term health of Navy bottlenose dolphins. While seeking to understand why some dolphins were aging at slower rates than others, Dr. Venn-Watson applied an advanced technology called metabolomics on archived dolphin serum to discover which molecules predicted the healthiest aging dolphins. Here, she discovered C15. ◘ Related Links: The Longevity Nutrient: The Unexpected Fat That Holds the Key to Healthy Aging By Stephanie Venn-Watson, https://bit.ly/4a43w75; GW Integrative Medicine podcast: What Do Dolphins Have to Do with Anti-aging?, https://bit.ly/4aljzxx ◘ Transcript bit.ly/3JoA2mz ◘ This podcast features the song “Follow Your Dreams” (freemusicarchive.org/music/Scott_Ho…ur_Dreams_1918) by Scott Holmes, available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial (01https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/) license. ◘ Disclaimer: The content and information shared in GW Integrative Medicine is for educational purposes only and should not be taken as medical advice.

You may do intermittent fasting, optimize your diet, take your supplements, and prioritize sleep. But there's one powerful longevity tool that almost no one in the wellness space is talking about. What if the secret to living longer, reducing inflammation, and protecting your heart wasn't in a bottle or a biohack, but something your body already knows how to do? In this episode, Dr. Diane Mueller, a board-certified sexologist with dual doctorates in naturopathic medicine and acupuncture, reveals the surprising science behind how orgasms can add years to your life. Dr. Mueller explains how oxytocin (the hormone released during orgasm and cuddling) protects your cardiovascular system, resets your stress response, and reduces inflammation. If you're looking for evidence-based strategies to enhance your longevity while also improving your relationships and quality of life, this conversation will change how you think about pleasure and health.

Social bonds may be the most overlooked key to longevity. In this episode, Ken Stern, author of Healthy to 100, explains how connection, purpose, and community can profoundly extend healthspan. Drawing on insights from Japan, Singapore, Korea, Spain, and Italy, he reveals how cultures that value older adults achieve healthier, longer lives.

But here's the kicker: production of this critical molecule drops by as much as 50% by the time we reach our 40s and 50 - leading to fatigue, brain fog, high blood pressure, erectile dysfunction, and accelerated aging. Dr. Bryan breaks down why nitric oxide levels decline, the lifestyle habits that sabotage your body's ability to make it, and simple science-backed strategies to restore production naturally - so you can feel decades younger from the inside out. If you care about optimal health, performance, and aging well… this episode is a must-listen. In This Episode, You'll Learn:What nitric oxide is - and why it's essential for every system in your bodyThe four major signs you might be nitric oxide deficientHow common habits like mouthwash, fluoride, and antacids destroy nitric oxide productionThe role of nitric oxide in sexual performance, heart health, and brain function Why “beet supplements” might not be doing what you think they areThe simple daily practices that naturally boost nitric oxide (including one most people overlook)How nitric oxide could revolutionize medicine, aging, and human performance Resources & LinksConnect with Dr. Nathan Bryan: https://www.n1o1.comFollow Dr. Bryan on Instagram: @drnathansbryanCheck out Dr. Bryan's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@DrNathanSBryanNitricOxideGrab his book: The Secret of Nitric Oxide: Bringing the Science to Life - https://www.amazon.com/Secret-Nitric-Oxide-Bringing-Science-Life/dp/1899694307/ Want to Build a Lean, Strong, Vital Body After 50?Join Coach Kevin and the team at The Silver Edge for personalized nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle coaching designed to help you look and feel your best at any age.
