Joint aches. Softer muscles. Saggy skin. Brain fog.  Dealing with these not-so-fun issues in midlife? Trust me, you're not the only one. But… these changes aren't “just a part of getting older”. In this podcast, I'm joined by the brilliant Dr. Greg Kelly, Senior VP of Product Development at Qualia Life and a leader in anti-aging and cellular health, to unpack the powerful concept of cellular senescence, also known as “zombie cells.”  These cells don't die when they should, sticking around to cause inflammation, slow down your metabolism, and accelerate aging in your skin, joints, muscles, and brain.  The good news? You're not powerless! Dr. Kelly shares how senolytics—natural compounds that help your body clear out zombie cells—can dramatically shift how you age, supporting your body's innate ability to regenerate.  If you've been feeling like your body is betraying you, this episode will bring hope and science-backed strategies to help you feel vibrant, clear-headed, and strong again. Tune in now! Gregory Kelly N.D. Dr. Gregory Kelly is a naturopathic physician, the SVP of Product Development at Qualia Life, and the author of the book Shape Shift. He was the editor of the journal Alternative Medicine Review and has been an instructor at the University of Bridgeport in the College of Naturopathic Medicine. Dr. Kelly has published hundreds of articles on natural medicine and nutrition, contributed three chapters to the Textbook of Natural Medicine, and has more than 30 journal articles indexed on PubMed. IN THIS EPISODE Enhancing longevity AND wellness in your later years  What are zombie cells, and how do they contribute to aging?  Main parts of the body impacted by zombie or senescent cells  Senolytics and how they work against zombie cells in the body  Qualia Senolytics and the science and research behind them Top non-negotiable supplements for optimal health  Enhancing women's hormonal and reproductive longevity  How to get Qualia Senolytic NOW at a discounted rate!  QUOTES “As these zombie cells accumulate wherever in our body, our joints, our skin, our brain, our muscle tissues, our fat tissues, they cause both local problems and systemic problems.”  “They scanned a whole bunch of different compounds, both plant extracts and actual medications, and came up with two that, especially when combined together, worked really well to get these zombie cells to finally go through cellular death.” “These people all had some degree of joint discomfort, and what we saw was about a 60% improvement over three dosing cycles. So this seemed like it made a big benefit.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Get your Qualia Life Senolytic at 15% off HERE!  Qualia Life Website   Qualia Life Instagram  Qualia Life YouTube Channel  Pre-order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution HERE  RELATED EPISODES  #653: Mitochondria, Menopause & Metabolism: The Cellular Secret to More Energy After 40 with Dr. Felice Gersh #649: How To Reverse Your Biological Age + 5 Science-Backed Longevity Tips Every Woman Should Know with Leslie Kenny 640: Unveiling The Essential Role of Minerals For Cellular Energy And Detoxification with Caroline Alan 655: The Hidden Truth About Perimenopause That No One's Talking About (And Why It Changes Everything About How You Age)

Today, we're going to talk about some of the underlying causes of pain, along with the best natural remedies for pain relief. Joint pain and inflammation don't always signify arthritis!t's important to understand that natural joint pain remedies will not work if you continue to consume foods that cause inflammation. To avoid joint pain and inflammation, it's vital to avoid the following foods:•Sugar •High-fructose corn syrup•Seed oils •Gluten •Oxalates•MSG•Maltodextrin•Nightshades (Potatoes, peppers, tomatoes)•Lectins (Beans, peanuts, wheat, soy)Healthy Keto is a great option to help avoid these inflammatory foods! If you're sensitive to oxalates, it may be caused by past antibiotic use. This can make you more susceptible to joint pain, especially when you consume spinach, chocolate, almonds, and Swiss chard. Increasing magnesium intake can help significantly. Add a teaspoon of turmeric to a glass of half water and half coconut milk for the best joint pain remedy. Add a pinch of black pepper to increase absorption by 2000%. You can also add a scoop of collagen powder for even more joint pain relief! This drink is delicious for most people, but you can add a couple drops of liquid stevia if necessary. Drink this daily. It can also be served warm. This drink works anytime, but try drinking it in the morning for pain relief that lasts all day!Turmeric has been shown to have similar effectiveness to ibuprofen and other NSAIDS. If you're taking a turmeric supplement for joint pain relief, take 1000 to 1500 mg daily.Turmeric inhibits at least four major inflammatory pathways. Coconut milk has beneficial properties and also helps with turmeric absorption. Collagen helps build up the joints. Boswellia serrata is also an amazing supplement that research has shown to be as effective as NSAIDS without side effects. Walking is the best exercise for joint pain relief, and it has no side effects. It can also extend your life!Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Some injuries never really leave you…unless you change how you heal them.That's something I got to dig into with Dr. Christopher Meadows, a double board-certified physician and regenerative medicine expert at Clinic 5C. Dr. Meadows has been chief resident, helped build a residency program, and now spearheads orthopedic regenerative therapies that skip the scalpel and address the root of healing.From football injuries and quitting soda in middle school to mini-liposuctions and stem cell protocols that target your body's natural repair systems, this conversation hits a whole different gear. We also talk about knees, tendons, aging, sleep, protein, inflammation, PRP vs PRF, and how stem cells may soon revolutionize neuro and spinal cord recovery.Whether it's fat-derived stem cells or platelet-rich fibrin, this is what medicine looks like when it's evolving. “The idea behind regenerative medicine is to take advantage of the body's natural healing process and apply it to something that's been notoriously difficult to treat.” ~ Dr. Christopher MeadowsAbout Dr. Christopher Meadows:Dr. Christopher Meadows is a double board-certified physician in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and Electrodiagnostic Medicine. A former UCLA football player turned regenerative therapy expert, Dr. Meadows leads the orthopedic arm of Clinic 5C in Spokane, Washington.

I was shocked when my dentist connected my bleeding gums to low estrogen – the same culprit behind my achy joints and poor recovery! This revelation unlocked my understanding of what Dr. Vonda Wright calls the "Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause." If you're waking up feeling stiff, experiencing joint pain, or noticing your body doesn't bounce back like it used to, you're not crazy or broken – you're experiencing a natural but manageable part of midlife. Contrary to popular advice, the answer isn't to move less or accept joint pain as inevitable. I'm sharing the science-backed strategies that helped me delay knee surgery for 25 years and recently transformed my debilitating foot pain into pain-free walking, from strength training protocols to regenerative therapies and anti-inflammatory nutrition approaches that actually work.   What you'll learn: Why joint pain often emerges during perimenopause and menopause (hint: it's about more than just aging) The truth about movement – why "protecting" your joints by moving less actually makes them worse How certain foods can dramatically increase or decrease joint inflammation The critical connection between gut health, inflammation, and joint pain Which supplements have research-backed benefits for joint health (and the specific ones I take daily) Strategies to balance muscle-building against fat gain to protect your joints How regenerative therapies like PRP, stem cells, and cutting-edge treatments can help rebuild cartilage Love the Podcast?

Send us a textIf you think joint pain is just part of getting older… think again. In this episode, I sit down with Jeff Bailey - founder of Avita Yoga and author of the upcoming book Mobility for Life: Healthy Joints, Strong Bones, and a Peaceful Mind - to talk about a radically different approach to joint health, healing, and pain relief after 50. After a devastating ski accident at 50 left Jeff with a wrecked hip and grim medical predictions, Jeff turned his pain into purpose by developing a practice that helps restore mobility and joint function - without surgery, without extreme stretching, and without feeling like a pretzel in spandex. We cover everything from why stretching isn't the answer, to how compression actually heals your joints, to what you should be doing right now to bulletproof your hips, shoulders, knees, and spine for the long haul. Whether you're dealing with joint pain, facing a possible replacement, or just want to stay strong, mobile, and independent for decades to come - this one's for you.

Short N Sweet! This month's Clinical Corner Article covers a case study of a patient presenting with rotator cuff issues. After months of pain and many rounds of cortisone injections, she finally decided to visit a PT. Eight weeks of treatment went by with her pain not resolving, and her shoulder still "feeling stuck". This lead her PT to refer her on to getting an MRI- which eventually uncovered an aneurysmal bone cyst! This case is a great example to show patients they should not wait to be treated for their pain, and how the healthcare system can work together to find the answers to your issues to get you back to pain-free living!Read the article here: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/josptcases.2022.10897Did you know that you don't need a doctor's prescription to receive physical therapy?

Story at-a-glance Osteoarthritis results from cartilage deterioration due to genetic, metabolic and inflammatory factors, causing bone friction, pain, stiffness and bone spur formation that impair joint function Studies show boosting vitamin K2 intake supports joint health by regulating calcium metabolism, reducing inflammation, boosting cartilage integrity and activating proteins like GPX4 to protect cartilage cells from damage Elevated levels of vitamin K-dependent proteins like Gla-rich protein (GRP) and matrix Gla protein (MGP) in osteoarthritic joints suggest their protective role against harmful calcium deposits and their use as diagnostic markers Insufficient vitamin K impairs protein activation, allowing calcification, inflammation and cartilage damage to progress unchecked, exacerbating osteoarthritis symptoms and joint degeneration Increasing vitamin K2 intake through foods, supplements and healthy lifestyle changes offers a powerful approach to preserving joint health, reducing inflammation and slowing osteoarthritis progression
