In this episode of Longevity by Design, our host, Dr. Gil Blander talks with Dr. Renee Deehan and Paul Fabian about Inside Tracker's new Healthspan Habits Score feature. This innovative tool analyzes data from wearable devices and daily journal entries to identify the most impactful habit to improve each week for better health span and longevity.The guests explain how the algorithm processes up to 15 different variables, including sleep quality, step count, and lifestyle factors to create a personalized weekly score. Rather than overwhelming users with multiple recommendations, the report focuses on one key habit to change, applying behavioral science principles for sustainable improvement.Deehan and Fabian detail how the system evaluates six weeks of data to identify trends and provide targeted recommendations, helping users bridge the gap between blood tests with actionable weekly guidance based on scientific research linking these habits to longevity outcomes.Guest-at-a-Glance
Dr. Gil Blander welcomes Dr. Daniel Durand, Chief Medical Officer at Prenuvo, to Longevity by Design for a deep dive into the future of preventative healthcare. Dr. Durand shares how full-body MRI is redefining early detection by making advanced imaging accessible, non-invasive, and radiation-free. He explains why MRI, as a soft tissue imaging modality, offers unmatched insight into early-stage cancers and chronic conditions.The conversation unpacks misconceptions around overdiagnosis and false positives, challenging the idea that “not knowing” is safer. Dr. Durand outlines how AI-enhanced imaging, paired with structured follow-up care, reduces unnecessary biopsies and improves diagnostic accuracy. He also discusses the emotional and systemic costs and benefits of proactive screening.Looking ahead, Dr. Durand envisions a healthcare model built on data, personalization, and patient empowerment. He argues that gathering better information, earlier, will shift the focus from treatment to prevention and help more people maintain peak health for longer. Guest-at-a-Glance

Send us a textIn this episode we talk with pro trail runner and SubHub Podcast co-host, Dani Moreno about:How a running break between college and her pro career helped reignite her passion for runningHer nutrition strategies, and how they've changed as she's evolved as a runner, including through an eating disorder in her youthHer love and gratitude for sportDani Moreno is a pro trail runner residing in the Eastern Sierra mountain town of Mammoth Lakes, CA. She moved to the mountains at the end of 2020 from the coastal town of Santa Barbara, where she lived for a decade. While at UC Santa Barbara, she competed for the women's Cross Country and Track and Field programs, producing times that made her competitive on the conference and national level. After college, she took a break from running to rediscover herself, leaning into outdoor guiding and things like climbing, spearfishing, motorcycle riding and other activities that pushed her to her physiological limits. She found nothing gave her quite the same satisfaction as running and began dabbling in trail running, which reignited her passion. Soon she was exploring the Los Padres National Forest's front range on her off days. Trail running immediately appealed to all aspects of her personality in a way that no other type of running had before. As she began to race trails, new opportunities arose and doors opened. She began traveling all over the world, feeling gratitude the whole way. That feeling hasn't quit since 2016. Since her debut to the sport, she has exploded on the sub-ultra and ultra scene, with an incredible number of podium and top 10 finishes, including being the top American at UTMB's World Championship OCC race in Chamonix in August 2024, a top 5 finish at the 2024 Broken Arrow Skyrace 26k, 1st at Canyons Endurance Race, 1st at Kodiak Ultra Marathon 50k in 2023, 2nd at Mammoth Trailfest 26k in 2023, and many others.Please note that this podcast is created strictly for educational purposes and should never be used for medical diagnosis or treatment.Connect w/ Dani: @dan_yell_aSub Hub Podcast (Listen to Kyla's episode here)Mentioned:Adidas TerrexNeverSecondBobo's BarsKodiak OaMORE NR New customers save 10% off all products on our website with the code NEWPOD10 If you would like to work with our practitioners, click here: https://nutritional-revolution.com/work-with-us/ Save 20% on all supplements at our trusted online source: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/kchannell Join Nutritional Revolution's The Feed Club to get $20 off right away with an additional $20 Feed credit drop every 90 days.: https://thefeed.com/teams/nutritional-revolution Interested in blood testing?

I have the same issue, because I lived in Sweden during X years I am not able to donate blood here in the USA. What are some other means to remedy this? I'll add my values below from InsideTracker testing. 128 to 275 ug/dl range over 5 tests from the last 3 years. 34 year old fit male, diet is paleo + rice + whiskey. Protein sources are whey casein powder, chicken and red meat. Thank you! Garrett Optimal Glucose level Tracie writes: Greetings from Spokane, WA! I reread the Paleo solution after Thanksgiving and have been pretty convinced I'll be sticking with the changes I made for life. I feel fantastic. Most of my digestive issues are gone, mood has improved, and I'm lifting more weight for more sets! I do have some anxiety/IBS that runs on my mom's side and I often feel pretty turned up, so I decided to give one of the Dexcom Stelo continuous glucose monitors a try. I was particularly stressed at work in December hiking around the woods in the snow as a forester. I noticed I'd wake up like clockwork at 11 pm and 1:30-2 am having trouble getting back to sleep, which seemed like a blood sugar low issue. Turns out I do dip down to 71 mg/dL but I'm very much in their recommended target range 99% of the time (with a little dip below 70 and so far not above 129 mg/dL post breakfast when there are tubers involved. When I wake up I'm just under 100. My question is what would you guys recommend is a more optimal glucose range? I feel like my fasted glucose in the morning should be in the 70s, and that having my blood sugar be more like 110 max after a meal would be more ideal. However, if you look/perform/feel great does it really matter? I know from your previous guests that bio individuality makes a difference and we shouldn't try to always be an A+ student. A “B” in OCHEM gets you the credit! My glucose level throughout the day is very steady around 100, I eat every 4 hours max. Breakfast at 6, a venison epic bar and satsuma tangerine at 10, chicken soup at 11:30-12:30, another venison bar and tangerine at 2:30, and dinner at 5. Breakfast and dinner is 4 ounces lean animal protein, 1/4 cup each color of fruit/vegetable, a little fat and salt for flavor. For some reference: I am a 34.5 year old female, 153 lbs, my sister is on an SSRI inhibitor/we have a family history of anxiety on moms side, familial hypercholesterolemia on dad side (so glucose control is important for avoiding heart disease) I eat 125-145 grams of protein from flank steak/smoked salmon/chicken/epic venison bars, 75-110 grams carbs from fruits/tubers/veggies, and 50-70 grams fat from animal proteins, some nuts, olive/avocado oil…and then a few times a month I stress eat some mostly paleo compliant junk snacks at work like eat a whole bag of coconut chocolate chip gluten free hippie cookies, or eat a whole Hu chocolate bar and a small bag of kettle sea salt and vinegar chips. I'm not a perfect angel, but I am 85% there. I sleep 11 hours on the weekend (cortisol induced likely), but mostly 8-8.5 with the occasional 7.8 hours. I have a lot of things going on: day job, trying to start a business, chasing moose through the woods, some of its great fun and the excitement seems to get me going too. So I have some dietary and personality factors that might drive my glucose a little higher than ideal. Lead Testing Mari writes: Hello from North Idaho, I'm a long time listener and long time enjoyer of LMNT. I've recently become more concerned about heavy metals in what I'm consuming. I wanted to not pay attention to the chocolate situation a couple years ago because my HU bar addiction is not something I want to part with, but more keeps coming out. Recent testing done by “Clean Label Project” found a bunch of lead and cadmium in protein powders, with organic and chocolate flavored protein powders testing particularly high. I get that its a soil the chocolate in grown in thing (right?), and maybe also where/how its stored during processing? Anyways, to my point- I have an all winter long, morning LMNT hot chocolate routine. I'm also currently trying to get pregnant, so I thought I'd try to look into testing and I saw this immediately: LMNT Raw Unflavored Electrolyte Drink Mix Tests Positive for Lead: November 2024 Laboratory Report Trustworthy? No idea, which is why I was hoping you could speak to it. Thanks always for your courage and wisdom, Mari Lead Testing Hazel writes: Hi Robb and Nicki, I've been meaning to write to you on this topic for quite some time. I remember a few years ago there was a big to-do about heavy metals in chocolate - specifically lead and cadmium. The assertion was made, by whom I don't remember, that virtually all chocolate contained dangerous amounts of lead and we were all destined for lead poisoning if we kept eating our daily dark chocolate square. Much internet ink was spilled on the subject. Robb, you mentioned at that point that you were planning to write a piece about the bioavailabilty of that lead and whether we were really in danger. Did that ever get written? If so, please share the link! This question has come up for me again, but this time in a much broader context: there is a person on the internet who goes by the name Lead Safe Mama whose website contains pages and pages of highly alarming claims about the lead content of virtually any consumer good you can imagine - from children's and prenatal vitamins to pantry staples and cookware. She gathers this information by sending the products to a third-party lab for testing (related question: how reliable is your average third-party lab for this kind of stuff?). I don't doubt that we do have a lead contamination issue with any number of our consumer products, the same way we have a serious microplastics issue. And indeed, the LSM has been responsible for several recalls of glass products over the years based on her testing, so she's on to something. But I'm hoping you can provide more nuance to the claim that such a vast array of our products contain dangerous quantities of lead that our bodies are unable to detoxify. Do I need to add this to my ever-growing list of things to worry about? Thank you in advance for your thoughts on this. Unrelated stuff that is too rambling to read on the pod: I REALLY value the work that you do and view you as an important voice of reason on many issues. I've been a regular listener of the show since the summer of 2020. Came for the health Q&A. Stayed for the commentary on Covid lunacy, public health, food systems, politics, and homeschooling. And who doesn't love a dog-meets-cadaverine anecdote from time to time? (Remind me the upside of pet ownership??!) Finally, the episode you did on vaccines was chilling but necessary and I thank you for sticking your neck out on that. I too deeply regret vaccinating my older child, despite pursuing a selective schedule, delaying as long as possible, only doing one dose at a time, etc. Still wish I hadn't fucking done it at all. Anyway. Keep fighting the good fight. We need you. Oh and my favorite LMNT is Citrus Salt! All the Best, Hazel

Send us a textIn this episode we talk with big mountain skier (and gravel/mountain/road cyclist, runner, physical trainer):The evolution of nutrition on long days in the mountainsGetting into gravel cyclingHis approach to eating enough to fuel adventuresWhy strength is important for all athletesJohn Collinson grew up on the hill at Snowbird Ski Resort with his sister, Angel. Their dad worked in the snow safety department, so the pair was skiing and understanding the mountains from a very young age. John's mom homeschooled them in winter, allowing them to spend more time on skis. At 17, John won the Junior Freeskiing World tour, and the same year became the youngest person to climb the seven summits: the highest peak on each continent, and he did it in a year. After that he knew skiing had to be a part of his life, and kept competing on the Freeskiing circuit, as well as started a career filming with Sherpas Cinema. He then started filming with Teton Gravity Research & Matchstick Productions. From 2018-2022, John had a string of knee injuries, which led him down a road of discovery and learning about the human body. Showing his recoveries online inspired a new tangent to his career, offering online workout programs, as well as working as an in-person physical trainer. He's found another passion in helping people move and feel better through exercise.

On this episode of Longevity by Design, Dr. Gil Blander welcomes Dr. John Erdman to discuss prostate cancer and the impact of diet on disease progression. John shares his personal connection to this disease and why he's dedicated his research to understanding dietary interventions.John explains that prostate cancer is often slow-growing, with most men experiencing decades between early mutations and noticeable tumor growth. He stresses the importance of early detection through regular checkups, including digital exams and PSA tests. While the medical community debates the effectiveness of these tests, John advocates for establishing a baseline to monitor for any sudden changes.John's research reveals a strong link between tomato consumption and reduced prostate cancer risk. He believes this protective effect stems from lycopene and its metabolites, which may influence gene expression. John emphasizes that while tomato consumption shows promise, maintaining a healthy weight and regular exercise are equally crucial for long-term health.

In this episode of Longevity by Design, Dr. Gil Blander welcomes Dr. Jens Juul Holst, a renowned Danish physician and physiologist, to discuss GLP-1, a hormone transforming our understanding of metabolic health. Dr. Holst, who discovered and described GLP-1, explains its role as a gut-derived hormone that regulates appetite, insulin secretion, and digestion, offering a groundbreaking approach to managing obesity and type 2 diabetes.The conversation explores how GLP-1 receptor agonists, have evolved into powerful medications. These drugs help patients achieve significant weight loss, reverse diabetes, improve cardiovascular health, reduce inflammation, and potentially enhance cognitive function. Dr. Holst delves into their long-term implications for preventing diabetes, extending health spans, and even reducing the risks of obesity-related cancers and improving fertility.Dr. Holst emphasizes that while GLP-1 offers life-changing benefits, sustainable health still hinges on balanced diets and regular physical activity. This episode provides a fascinating look at the intersection of science, medicine, and lifestyle in promoting longevity.Episode highlights:Introduction: 00:00:00What is GLP-1: 00:03:00what is a GLP-1 agonist: 00:04:15what are the target organs of the GLP-1 agonist?: 00:06:30what is the effect of the GLP-1 agonist on a diabetic patient?: 00:10:00What percentage of a diabetic patient on GLP-1 have complete remission: 00:11:30How long did it take to bring a drug to market from the moment you first discovered it: 00:23:30What is the GLP-1 effect on cognition and dementia: 00:29:00GLP-1 effect on kidney diseases: 00:32:00GLP-1 positive effect on fertility: 00:35:00GLP-1 positive effect on cancer: 00:37:30Should a patient be on GLP-1 for life: 00:41:00GLP-1 related side effects: 00:48:00GLP-1 effect on resting heart rate: 00:52:30GLP-1 related side effects: 00:48:00GLP-1 from Lilly vs novo nordisk: 00:55:00GLP-1 oral versus the injectable: 00:58:00GLP-1 effect on lifespan: 01:00:30GLP-1 effect on lifespan: 01:00:30What led you to become a scientist: 01:03:00The story of discovering the GLP-1: 01:04:30How did you successfully extend the half-life of the GLP-1 agonist: 01:09:00GLP-1 moving from once a day to once a week: 01:16:00Top tip to improve healthspan: 01:18:00GLP-1 Agonists: A Game-Changer for Diabetes and ObesityDr. Jens Juul Holst explores the revolutionary impact of GLP-1 agonists in treating diabetes and obesity. These medications mimic a natural gut hormone to regulate insulin secretion, appetite, and weight. Through their ability to normalize blood glucose levels and promote significant weight loss, GLP-1 agonists have transformed the lives of patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity. Holst highlights their success in enabling over 50% of diabetes patients to achieve normal glucose levels while addressing the systemic health risks tied to obesity. This innovation represents a monumental leap in metabolic disease management.

All of a sudden I was getting serious headaches and didn't know why…My friend Rob Wolff who wrote the book Wired to Eat turned me on to InsideTracker but to be honest I didn't follow thru and spent the next 4 years trying to figure things out on my own by seeing over a dozen doctors and specialists. I probably wasted at least $20,000 in time and medical expenses with nothing to show for it. Earlier this year another friend suggested InsideTracker again and I signed up. It was so easy. A specialist came to my house to took my blood for a blood panel test that measured almost 50 health markers. About a week later I had a full report across all of the important categories.How much would you pay to have a roadmap to feeling your best?

After years of research and development, they share the journey of creating a food recognition platform that helps users track their food intake in real time. The goal is to provide users with personalized recommendations for better health and nutrition based on their dietary habits.Dr. Blander explains the challenges that arose over nearly a decade of development, including the complexity of assessing nutritional needs accurately. Through collaboration with experts from Tufts School of Nutrition, InsideTracker has refined its approach, incorporating not only food frequency questionnaires but also real-time food logging. This solution enables users to optimize their intake of macro and micronutrients to improve health outcomes.Ashley emphasizes how this technology allows for a more holistic view of a person's nutrition and its impact on biomarkers, performance, and sleep.

Dr. Blander explains that the project began with the realization that no one had figured out how to match the right food with the right person at the right time. The team worked extensively, developing multiple iterations, collaborating with leading scientists, and employing cutting-edge technology, including food recognition platforms and barcode readers. Despite the prolonged process, their persistence led to a comprehensive solution that analyzes user input, such as food consumption and biomarker data, to offer personalized nutritional insights.Food Tracking Technology: A Game-ChangerOne of the most exciting aspects of InsideTracker's Nutrition Deep Dive innovation is its food recognition technology. Users can log food through various methods, including scanning barcodes or using their iPhone camera to identify food items.

Matt revisits the concept of "sleep divorce," or "sleep separation" in this latest episode, examining its effects on relationships and well-being. He cites studies showing that up to one in four couples in the U.S. and U.K. sleep in separate rooms, a statistic often underestimated due to stigma. While many fear that sleeping apart harms intimacy, Matt presents data indicating that it can actually enhance sleep quality and intimacy by promoting better-rested bodies and increasing hormones like testosterone and estrogen. He also discusses new research on the psychology of co-sleeping, revealing that despite poorer sleep quality, many couples feel more satisfied when sharing a bed, driven by a deep-rooted need for social connection, known as "somato longing." This episode encourages listeners to reflect on their own sleep habits and offers advice on discussing sleep separation with partners, emphasizing that the choice to sleep together or apart should prioritize open communication and individual health.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.Are sleep troubles keeping you up at night?

In episode one, we discussed the importance of the Off-Season and the need for a real break while also laying a strong foundation for the upcoming year. In the second episode, we delved into the specifics of our approach at Purple Patch, building on last year's successes while making necessary refinements. We received positive feedback on the first two episodes along with some phenomenal questions from athletes like you. In this episode, Matt shares the top 10 questions we received over the last two to three weeks about the off-season. He breaks the questions down into three categories: Big Picture Questions, Off-Season Training Questions, and Nutrition and Body Composition Questions. Matt covers a range of topics from health and energy improvements to maintaining weight during the off-season, rest days, training volume, and the use of AI in training programs. We believe you will find this episode not only fun and interesting but also empowering, and hopefully, it will help you plan your off-season and set yourself up for improved performance.

Welcome back to the Purple Patch Podcast! This is part two of our three-part series on the Off-Season. We've reimagined the Off-Season to help you thrive and achieve success in the upcoming season. This week, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon discusses the Purple Patch Off-Season, focusing on a comprehensive 18-week training plan that extends into the initial 6 weeks of the following year. This period, which we refer to as Q4, starts in October for most athletes and continues through November and December, with the off-season mindset extending into the first six weeks of the next year. Matt emphasizes the importance of structured training and smart Off-Season practices to prevent burnout and reduce the risk of injury. His approach covers swim, bike, run, strength, and supporting habits, and while our discussion will be centered around triathletes, the principles and approaches apply to all endurance athletes and fitness enthusiasts. If you missed last week's episode, we encourage you to listen to it first, as it lays the groundwork for a successful Off-Season. Our goal is to provide foundational information to guide your Off-Season planning. Committing to a well-structured Off-Season offers several benefits, including long-term motivation and decreased risk of burnout and injury.

A year ago, we at Purple Patch decided to completely reimagine our Off-Season training. We wanted to address the question of how to deliver a block of training for our athletes that is crucial for their long-term development and results, while also providing them with flexibility and a much-needed mental and physical break. We recognized the importance of taking a break after a strenuous season, while also understanding the necessity of consistent training for athletic performance. As we approach the Off-Season once again, we want to offer insight into how we approach this important part of the athletic journey. This week, we are beginning a three-part series focusing on Off-Season training for athletes. In this episode, we will revisit the value, importance, and role of the Off-Season, emphasizing the need to take a real break while also establishing a strong foundation for the upcoming year. In the second episode, we will delve into the specifics of our approach at Purple Patch, building on the successes of last year while making necessary refinements. Lastly, we will hold a Q&A session in which IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon will address all of your questions about Off-Season training. We want to stress the significance of this series to all athletes. Even if you typically take an unstructured break after your race season, we hope to persuade you to consider a different approach for your Off-Season training. It's essential for setting the stage for your next big event, and we hope to provide valuable insights that you can integrate into your training program. We look forward to sharing this journey with you over the next few weeks and encourage you to participate by sending in your questions for the upcoming Q&A session.

Welcome to another episode of the Purple Patch podcast. This week, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon explores the concept of Child's play. What do children have to do with our pursuit of high performance in work, life, and sport? It turns out, quite a bit. While it may sometimes seem like kids do nothing but go to school, say the wildest things, and create messes around the house, the study of child development holds valuable lessons. Understanding how children grow into high-functioning adults can parallel the importance of sports and physical challenges in our own lives. These experiences can help us perform better under pressure in all aspects of life. Today's discussion about high performance will draw inspiration from the playful and physical activities of children that many of us remember from our childhoods. The aim is to rejuvenate your spirit of adventure and inspire you to either rediscover the joy in your current pursuits or take on an entirely new challenge.

Dr. William “Bill” Jagust, renowned expert in brain science and Alzheimer's research - and one of the reasons Matt chose to move to UC Berkeley - joins our host today for an in-depth discussion on aging, cognitive decline, and the critical role of neuroimaging, with some sleep talk woven in as well. Dr. Jagust shares groundbreaking insights into how PET scans can detect amyloid and tau proteins in the brain—two key contributors to Alzheimer's disease—years before symptoms emerge. Together with Matt he goes on to explore the connection between these proteins and brain aging, highlighting the power of biomarkers and advanced imaging in tracking the disease's progression. Our esteemed guest also emphasizes that early detection and intervention are crucial in slowing Alzheimer's progression, but warns that once neurons are damaged, the brain has minimal capacity to repair itself. He further discusses lifestyle choices such as exercise, diet, and sleep, which can lower the risk of cognitive decline, and dives into emerging research on genetic factors like the APOE4 gene. The episode concludes with a hopeful outlook on the future of Alzheimer's research, offering insights into potential preventive treatments.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.Support for today's podcast comes from Magic Spoon.
