View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter Brian Kennedy is a renowned biologist, leader in aging research, and director of the Center for Healthy Longevity at the National University of Singapore. In this episode, Brian shares insights from ongoing human aging studies, including clinical trials of rapamycin and how dosing strategies, timing, and exercise may influence outcomes. He presents two key models of aging—one as a linear accumulation of biological decline and the other as an exponential rise in mortality risk—and explains why traditional models of aging fall short. He also explains why most current aging biomarkers lack clinical utility and describes how his team is working to develop a more actionable biological clock. Additional topics include the potential of compounds like alpha-ketoglutarate, urolithin A, and NAD boosters, along with how lifestyle interventions—such as VO2 max training, strength building, and the use of GLP-1 and SGLT2 drugs—may contribute to longer, healthier lives. We discuss: Brian's journey from the Buck Institute to Singapore, and the global evolution of aging research [2:45]; Rethinking the biology of aging: why models like the hallmarks of aging fall short [9:45]; How inflammation and mTOR signaling may play a central, causal role in aging [14:15]; The biological role of mTOR in aging, and the potential of rapamycin to slow aging and enhance immune resilience [17:30]; Aging as a linear decline in resilience overlaid with non-linear health fluctuations [22:30]; Speculating on the future of longevity: slowing biological aging through noise reduction and reprogramming [33:30]; Evaluating the role of the epigenome in aging, and the limits of methylation clocks [39:00]; Balancing the quest for immortality with the urgent need to improve late-life healthspan [43:00]; Comparing the big 4 chronic diseases: which are the most inevitable and modifiable? [47:15]; Exploring potential benefits of rapamycin: how Brian is testing this and other interventions in humans [51:45]; Testing alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG) for healthspan benefits in aging [1:01:45]; Exploring urolithin A's potential to enhance mitochondrial health, reduce frailty, and slow aging [1:05:30]; The potential of sublingual NAD for longevity, and the combination of NAD and AKG for metabolic and exercise enhancement [1:09:00]; Other interventions that may promote longevity: spermidine, 17

 Fatigue isn't just a side effect of modern life—it can be a sign of something far deeper. In this episode, Dr. Odell uncovers the complex world of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and its surprising link to the powerhouses of our cells: the mitochondria. You'll discover how mitochondrial dysfunction may lie at the heart of the brain fog, muscle pain, and post-exertional crashes that define this debilitating condition. We explore the latest science behind energy production, how viruses and inflammation disrupt mitochondrial function, and why fatigue often lingers long after an illness. More importantly, we offer practical, evidence-based strategies for supporting your mitochondrial health—from targeted nutrients and antioxidants to lifestyle therapies and cutting-edge emerging treatments. Whether you live with chronic fatigue or are just curious about how your body makes—and loses—energy, this episode will transform the way you think about fatigue and healing.

Der er ingen tvivl om at det er usundt at være tyk, eller er der? Vi får tudet ørene fulde af at det er usundt at være tyk, at det er forkert at være tyk og at alle ens problemer løser sig hvis bare man taber sig, men hvorfor det er faktuelt forkert forklarer Rasmus Køster-Rasmussen i denne episode. Rasmus der er podcastvært på podcasten Radio Ligevægt, og læge og forsker med speciale i vægtudvikling, har selv skulle se det vægtparadigme vi har i vores samfund dybt i øjnene for at forstå, hvor mange fejlslutninger der florerer omkring det at være tyk og det at være usund. I denne episode centrerer vi os om spørgsmålet: Er det usundt at være tyk, og her forklarer Rasmus blandt andet, at hvis vi skal vurdere om et vægttab er sundhedsgavnligt eller sundhedsskadeligt, bliver vi nødt til at vægte skadevirkninger overfor gavnlige effekter, men hvad, kan der være skadevirkninger forbundet med vægttab tænker du måske. Hør svaret i episoden.Det kommer vi blandt andet ind på i episoden: Censur i forskningen omkring BMI og dødOm der er forskel på tilsigtede og utilsigtede vægttab i relation til øget dødelighedOm vægttab er vejen til mere sundhedHvordan det som sundhedsprofessionel kan være udfordrende at formidle paradigmeskiftVægttabsparadigmetOm vi tager modet fra folk når vi fortæller dem at det ikke er usundt at være tykHvordan alle slankekure virker på kort sigt og ikke på lang sigtHvordan både en slankekur og en livsstilsintervention er synonymer for energirestriktionerOm det er muligt at lave indsatser der kan hjælpe mennesker med at holde vægten nedeHvad der gør at nogle mennesker kan holde et vægttabOm vægttab har en effekt på risikoen for blodpropperHvordan man øger sundheden hvis det ikke skal handle om vægttabHvilke fysiske og psykiske skadevirkninger der kan være forbundet med vægttabOm en høj BMI er forbundet med øget dødelighed og kardiovaskulær sygdomOm risikoen for tidlig død forbundet med en høj vægt reguleres, når vi justerer for andre faktorer så som ulighed i sundhed og vægtstigmatiseringHvordan du kan lære at slutte fred med din krop som den erI episoden deler jeg at du kan teste hvor intuitivt dit spisemønster er via min test: Spiser du intuitivt. Testen kan du hente via linket her.Et randomiseret kontrolleret forsøg viste at en intensiv livsstilsintervention med fokus på vægttab ikke reducerede antallet af kardiovaskulære sygdomme hos overvægtige voksne med type 2-diabetes (1)Intensive livsstilsinterventioner ændrer umiddelbart ikke på risikoen for dødelighed blandt mennesker med prædiabetes eller type 2-diabetes (2)Et stort systematisk review der samlede forskellige vægttabsprogrammer viser et gennemsnitligt vægttab på 1,8 kilo (3)Vægtdiskrimmination er forbundet med en næsten 60% øget risiko for dødelighed (4)Hvis et vægttab skal bevares skal energirestriktionen vedholdes, i en sådan grad at det i mange tilfælde vil kunne sammenlignes med anorektisk adfærd, og små vægtudsving skal monitoreres hurtigt  (5,6)Energirestriktion er relateret til afminiralisering af knoglerne (7)Kilder:1: Look AHEAD Research Group.

I spent the first few decades of my career doing scientific research into the biology of aging, trying to understand the finer details of how humans age in order to facilitate translational interventions that promote healthspan and improve quality of life. Now I want to take some of that knowledge out of the lab and into the hands of people who can really use it.On this podcast I talk about all things aging and healthspan, from supplements and nutrition to the latest discoveries in longevity research. My goal is to lift the veil on the geroscience and longevity world and help you apply what we know to your own personal health trajectory. I care about quality science and will always be honest about what I don't know. I hope you'll find these episodes helpful!

Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is a silent yet prevalent health issue that affects millions of people worldwide. Often going unnoticed until significant damage has been done, hypertension can lead to severe cardiovascular complications if not properly managed. Mechanistically, the causes of hypertension are complex, involving both genetic and lifestyle factors. The management of hypertension presents multifaceted challenges, encompassing both pharmaceutical treatments and lifestyle modifications. From a prevention and management standpoint, understanding the interplay between genetics and lifestyle is crucial. This raises several important questions… To what extent do genetic factors contribute to hypertension risk compared to lifestyle choices, and how does this interaction influence disease progression? What role does lifestyle play in managing hypertension, and is there evidence supporting the influence of specific dietary patterns and nutrients, particularly sodium and potassium, on blood pressure control? How do exercise and physical activity impact blood pressure, and what types of exercise are most beneficial for individuals with or at risk of hypertension? What are the main categories of antihypertensive medications, and how do these drugs work to lower blood pressure? What are the potential side effects, and how should clinicians decide on the best treatment approach for individual patients? In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Mohammed Alo, a board-certified cardiologist and internal medicine specialist, who will help us understand the intricacies of hypertension and how it can be effectively controlled.

"It's just the side effect of a leaky gut."Today we welcome back the amazing and brilliant Risa Groux. Risa had been on our podcast 2 years ago (episode 56). We talked about functional nutrition ranging from "-How diet can help to heal your body and improve energy" to "-How to eat for Auto-Immune Dysfunction".. In this episode, Risa and I discuss the complexities of thyroid health, including the role of the thyroid gland, common dysfunctions, testing, symptoms, and nutritional and lifestyle interventions. We also explore the impact of inflammation, stress, and autoimmune diseases on thyroid health and the importance of a diverse and balanced diet. We delve into the differences between hypo and hyperthyroidism and the role of supplements in supporting thyroid function. We cover a wide range of topics related to health and wellness, including nutrition, genetic testing, detoxification, and thyroid health. Risa and I discuss the impact of micronutrients, genetic predispositions, and the role of toxins in overall health. We also explore the importance of comprehensive testing, lifestyle changes, and the impact of chemicals on the body. We emphasize the need for a holistic health and wellness approach, considering genetic and environmental factors.Takeaways-- The thyroid gland plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism, temperature, and hormone production, and its dysfunction can lead to a range of symptoms and health issues.-- Nutritional and lifestyle interventions, including the removal of inflammatory foods, stress management, and exercise, can support thyroid health and function.-- Testing for thyroid health should include a comprehensive panel that assesses TSH, T3, T4, reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies to provide a complete picture of thyroid function.-- The impact of inflammation, stress, and autoimmune diseases on thyroid health underscores the need for a holistic approach to managing thyroid dysfunction.-- Supplements such as vitamin D, B vitamins, omega-3 fish oils, and anti-inflammatory agents can play a supportive role in maintaining thyroid health and addressing specific thyroid conditions. The impact of micronutrients and genetic predispositions on overall health.-- The importance of comprehensive testing and lifestyle changes for improved health.-- Understanding the role of toxins and chemicals in the body and the need for detoxification.-- The significance of a holistic approach to health and wellness, considering genetic and environmental factors.Chapters00:00 Understanding Thyroid Health: A Comprehensive Overview11:58 Nutritional and Lifestyle Interventions for Thyroid Health21:47 Inflammation, Stress, and Autoimmune Diseases in Thyroid Health27:05 Hypo vs. Hyperthyroidism: Key Differences and Interventions32:06 The Role of Supplements in Supporting Thyroid Function35:32 Exploring the Impact of Micronutrients and Genetics on Health46:27 Understanding Toxins and the Need for Detoxification52:30 Comprehensive Testing and Lifestyle Changes for Improved HealthLinks:DR.

Auto-immune diseases can be incredibly challenging to manage, but there are numerous lifestyle interventions that can positively influence your health. By focusing on key areas such as waistline, sunlight, sleep, and heat, and using various modalities, you can take significant steps toward improving your well-being.  In today's episode Miles Hassel, MD explores various tools that can favorably alter the course of your auto-immune disease: Maintaining a healthy waistline through balanced nutrition and regular exercise is essential. Exposure to sunlight helps your body produce Vitamin D, a crucial nutrient for immune function. Aim to spend at least 15-20 minutes in the sun each day, especially in the morning.  Sleep deprivation has a direct impact on illness. Adequate sleep supports immune function, reduces inflammation, and helps your body repair itself. Heat therapy can be an effective tool for managing auto-immune symptoms. Tailor your exercise routine to match your energy levels and physical capabilities, ensuring consistency over intensity. Diet plays a pivotal role in managing auto-immune diseases. Focus on anti-inflammatory foods such as leafy greens, fatty fish, nuts, and seeds.   Lifestyle interventions require rigorous approaches with consistency. These changes are not quick fixes; they take time to show results. Be patient with yourself and understand that turning your health around is a gradual process. By embracing these lifestyle interventions and utilizing different modalities, you can significantly reduce the burden of your auto-immune disease.  Join the cause!
