Docentka a lékařka Jitka Bušková ví o spánku ledacos. Přesto i ji dokáže v noci potrápit kuna, která ji před natáčením podcastu Nesmrtelný nenechala pořádně vyspat. Ve fascinujícím rozhovoru se však rychle dostává k podstatě: proč vlastně spíme, jak spánek ovlivňuje naše zdraví a proč krátký spánek může být vstupenkou k závažným nemocem a kratšímu životu. Prozrazuje, kolik hodin spánku skutečně potřebujeme, zda nám pomáhají šlofíky a jak správně nastavit večerní hygienu, aby naše tělo skutečně regenerovalo. A také připomíná, že i když spánek nesmíme podceňovat, není třeba z něj dělat posedlost. „Důležité u spánku je ho nepodceňovat. Dostatečná délka a pravidelnost jsou ty nejdůležitější základy. Také myslet na to, že ne všechno mu svědčí – třeba alkohol, cigarety, kofein či jídlo před spaním. Na druhou stranu je dobré ze spánku nedělat středobod našeho života – my ho totiž nemůžeme mít plně pod kontrolou,“ dodává expertka. Stejně jako to, aby vás v noci neprobouzela kuna.

And how much protein do you actually need to age well? This week on Your Diet Sucks, we break down the evidence behind the most talked-about interventions in the longevity space, what holds up under scrutiny, what doesn't, and why you might not need a supplement stack to live longer, and enjoy life. We dig into:The actual science on calorie restriction, fasting, and supplements—and where the evidence stopsWhat inflammation, oxidative stress, and telomeres have to do with how we ageThe best-researched dietary patterns for living longer (hint: it's not sexy, but it might include red wine)Why protein becomes more important as we ageThe difference between lifespan and healthspan, and why quality of life needs to be part of the conversation

In this special episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta Yadav celebrates a milestone moment—her latest mini review, Inflammation and Aging: The Skin Inflammasome in the Context of Longevity Science, has been published in the Journal of Cellular Immunology. This episode offers listeners a deep but accessible dive into the mechanisms that link chronic inflammation, skin health, and the biology of aging.Dr. Yadav unpacks the concept of “inflammaging,” explaining how low-grade, persistent inflammation accelerates skin aging and predisposes us to a host of conditions—from acne and psoriasis to pigmentation disorders. Central to this is the NLRP3 inflammasome, a cellular sensor that responds to both internal stress and external insults. But the conversation doesn't stop at surface-level inflammation—it zooms out to show how NAD+ depletion, mTOR signaling, sirtuin activity, and cellular senescence all play a role in the skin's aging clock.Listeners will get a taste of the therapeutic landscape too—from the promise of repurposed drugs like metformin and rapamycin to the caution needed around immune modulation. Dr. Yadav also weaves in emerging research on gut-skin interactions and psychoneuroendocrine links, emphasizing the systemic nature of skin health in the context of longevity.If you're curious about the future of aging, biohacking, or the real science behind graceful skin longevity, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to learn what's next in skin biology—and why inflammation is more than just skin deep.Read the full article HERE.To learn more about Dr. Ekta, visit her social media.

Whether to buy a house or go to college are major financial decisions, but so is deciding when to take Social Security.It's true—tens of thousands of dollars, if not more, are on the line when deciding when to start Social Security benefits. Eddie Holland joins us today to help make the decision easier.Eddie Holland is a Senior Private Wealth Advisor and partner of Blue Trust in Greenville, South Carolina. He's also a CPA, a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), and a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA®).A Common Recommendation—But Not a One-Size-Fits-AllWhen it comes to retirement, one of the most common questions people ask is: When should I start taking Social Security benefits? It's a vital decision that affects not only your income but also your long-term financial strategy and even your legacy.It's generally recommended to wait until at least full retirement age (66 or 67), but that doesn't mean it's the best choice for everyone. While delaying Social Security allows your benefits to grow up to 8% annually after full retirement age, thanks to what's called a delayed retirement credit, we must remember that each situation is unique.Six Key Factors to ConsiderHere are several factors that should guide your decision:1. Reduction vs. Growth of BenefitsTaking Social Security early reduces benefits. Delaying past full retirement age increases benefits. That tradeoff is foundational to your strategy.2. Cash Flow NeedsIf you retire before full retirement age and need income, you might begin drawing Social Security early to meet immediate needs. Some people may need to pay off debt or cover living expenses.3. Charitable Giving GoalsInterestingly, some retirees choose to take Social Security early in order to increase their generosity. Some people start taking benefits specifically to give more, either during retirement or as part of a legacy plan. 4. Health and LongevityYour health and family history play a significant role. If you don't expect to live well into your 80s or 90s, you might opt to draw earlier. But if you're healthy and expect a longer life, delaying could offer more value over time.5. Legacy and InheritanceYou can't leave your Social Security benefits to heirs, but you can leave your investment portfolio. This means some people opt to draw Social Security sooner in order to preserve their portfolio for giving or inheritance purposes.6. Tax PlanningSocial Security benefits can be taxable depending on your income. Some people delay benefits until a year they anticipate being in a lower tax bracket, strategically minimizing the tax impact.A Bonus Strategy: The “Mulligan”In some cases, there is a lesser-known but potentially powerful option: the withdrawal application.If you start taking Social Security before full retirement age and change your mind within the first 12 months, you can actually ‘undo' it.” You'll need to repay the benefits you received, but the Social Security Administration treats it as if you never started. You then have the option to restart at a later date, potentially at a higher benefit.This strategy can be especially useful during periods of market volatility when withdrawing from your investment portfolio might not be ideal.The Bottom LineThere's no universal right age at which to begin drawing Social Security. It really depends on your personal situation—your income needs, health, tax strategy, and goals for generosity and legacy.Wise financial planning starts with understanding your options and aligning those choices with your values and calling.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:How much is enough? My wife and I have 10 properties, including the one we live in. Because of COVID and a flood, I've been rehabbing them for the last few years. My wife is 71 and still working, and I'm wondering if we should continue fixing them up to maximize profit, or we should just hold them as they are, even if we get less money.I'm near retirement with $2 million saved and a good pension. Should I spend $3,300-$7,600 on a $20,000 term life policy, or is it unnecessary given my financial situation?I have assets but don't work. Can I gift my RMD to my church and not have it counted on my income tax for 2026?I'm taking early retirement from the government, and I'm wondering about what to do with my thrift savings.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Social Security Administration (SSA.gov)Blue TrustWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Today we're talking about one of my favorite tools in functional and regenerative medicine, peptides. It's also quite the buzzword these days, but in this episode we're going deeper to explore how you can best stack them for your desired outcomes. You can think of peptide stacks as powerful curated treatment plans (without all the side effects you want to avoid!). When I first heard of peptides, I was so intrigued that I couldn't wait to experiment with them. In fact, I ordered thousands of dollars worth. I recently put together my own stack for surgery and recovery preparation. But there are many different outcomes you can stack for, including reducing inflammation, gut healing, anti-aging and longevity, and more. Peptides are just chains of amino acids that naturally occur. One powerful peptide is BPC-157, which is incredible for healing and nerve regeneration. When injected close to the site of an injury, it can help with all types of tissue and ligament damage. Thymosin alpha 1 is one of the most exciting peptides for immune dysfunction. It helps the immune system differentiate between friend and foe.  Some peptides are better injected, but many can also be taken orally. GHK-copper can be used a few different ways, for instance, taken orally or used topically. It boosts collagen and reduces oxidative stress. Epitalon is associated with lowering all-cause mortality and is often used in anti-aging protocols. AOD9604 is a fragment of human growth hormone, and it promotes fat burning. One of my top peptides right now is MOTS-c, which supports insulin sensitivity and mitochondrial health, which is especially great for active people. The earlier you start using peptides, the more beneficial they can be for you in restoring and maintaining your beauty and health.   www.beautyculturespa.com @beautyculture.medspa

The research is so clear… if you want to speed up your biological age, don't use hormones.  You can be so healthy and dialed in with your habits, but even that won't stop your hormones from inevitably plummeting in midlife.  That's why Dr. Amy Killen joins the show to dive into the realities of women's health in midlife and how hormone replacement can be a game-changer. This conversation sheds light on what's really happening inside your body in midlife—and what you can do about it!  Dr. Amy breaks down how hormone replacement therapy (HRT), targeted supplements, and strategic lab testing can be huge for your energy, cognition, and longevity.  We'll also cover the lifestyle changes that truly move the needle in midlife, and how to stay proactive instead of stuck in “default mode.” If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but still struggling, this episode will make you feel seen and offer real solutions. It's time to feel inspired, empowered, informed, and ready to take ownership of your midlife health journey!  Amy Killen, M.D. Dr. Amy Killen is a leading physician in regenerative and hormone optimization medicine, specializing in women's health. As an emergency physician turned longevity specialist, she combines treatments like stem cell therapy, hormone optimization, and peptides with practical lifestyle wisdom. She's the Chief Medical Officer of Humanaut Health and founder of the Human Optimization Project.  IN THIS EPISODE Why estrogen MATTERS  Prioritizing movement for longevity  Day-to-day non-negotiables that move the needle  Supplements for energy and mitochondrial health  The link between HRT and longevity in women  Addressing common myths around perimenopause and HRT  The importance of functional lab tests and screenings  QUOTES “You could be so dialed in with your lifestyle, with your mindset, with your supplements, your everything, and you'll still have declining estrogen and progesterone.”  “Start working on the hormones. It can help with the drive to do the lifestyle things. And I've seen that a lot.” “We can increase human lifespan in women with these hormones and they're very inexpensive, yet less than 5% of women have access [to them].” RESOURCES MENTIONED Dr. Amy's Website  *Join Dr. Amy's Newsletter here and get her FREE Supplement Guide!

He is the co-founder of Nature Cures Clinic in Portland, Oregon and the founder of bVital, a wellness and recharging center, and Energy4Life Centers.

Eric Topol (Super Agers: An Evidence-Based Approach to Longevity) is a cardiologist, researcher, and author. Eric returns to the Armchair Expert to discuss being Monica's epilepsy consultant after their early interview, recent findings suggesting that AI aids doctors in providing better care, and an intense gag order suppressing getting a detrimental drug taken off the market. Eric and Dax talk about hospital beds that can monitor people as they sleep, no one having yet done a healthy aging study of genomics, and the true anecdote that inspired him to write his new book. Eric explains creating a segue to effectively prevent diseases we never could before, how Viagra was initially a failed blood pressure medication, and why despite troubling trends in diseases he remains optimistic about the future of aging.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter In this “Ask Me Anything” (AMA) episode, Peter dives deep into the topic of muscle mass and strength, examining their essential roles in both lifespan and healthspan. Drawing from over 30 hours of prior discussions with experts including Layne Norton, Andy Galpin, and Mike Israetel, this episode distills the most important insights into one comprehensive and up-to-date conversation. Peter explores why muscle matters for longevity, metabolic health, and injury prevention, and clarifies the differences between muscle mass and strength, including which is more vital for aging well.
