Podcasts about longevity genes

Your cells are starving. Not for food—but for oxygen. In this episode of The Human Upgrade, Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Jason Sonners, world-renowned hyperbaric expert and regenerative medicine pioneer, to reveal how controlled oxygen under pressure is becoming one of the most powerful tools in anti-aging and performance science. You'll learn how hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) triggers stem cell activation, rewires your epigenome, boosts mitochondrial energy, and reverses biological aging—if you use it the right way. Jason shares breakthrough findings from his latest PhD research comparing low- and high-pressure chambers, with surprising results on inflammation, telomeres, cognitive performance, and recovery speed. This is next-gen longevity—measurable, stackable, and customizable. From sleep upgrades and HRV boosts to stacking HBOT with fasting, methylene blue, or red light, this episode dives into what it takes to oxygenate your biology at the deepest level. You'll Learn: • How hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) triggers stem cell regeneration and cellular repair • Why mild-pressure chambers may be more powerful than you think• What HBOT does to inflammation, brain fog, and biological aging markers • How to stack HBOT with fasting, red light, and methylene blue for amplified results • What Dr. Sonners' PhD research reveals about oxygen pressure and genetic expression • The truth about oxygen toxicity—and how to avoid the common mistakes • How elite performers use HBOT for brain optimization, recovery, and resilience ** Get 30% of yourr tickets to the Biohacking conference by going to https://biohackingconference.com/2025 and use code ‘OXYHEALTH' ** Thank you to our sponsors! -Our Place | Head to https://fromourplace.com/ and use the code DAVE for 10% off your order. -Timeline | Head to https://www.timeline.com/dave to get 10% off your first order.

Welcome to Running: A FEVER, a podcast about fitness, diet, and medicine. My name is Michael Davis. My goal is to live a long, healthy, happy, active life by loving my life enough to make it last as long as possible. And long life is what this series, called Aging Reversed is all about. What if aging were really just a disease? A disease that could be treated? What if the Fountain of Youth consisted of behaviors and medication? What if you could live 150 years, or even forever? You won't find the answers to those questions in this series, but we will talk about how this could all come about, some of the research going into it, and what resources are available right now to lengthen your life scientifically.

Today I discuss the remarkable longevity molecule Klotho and it's associated gene. We go into the history of it, variants which over-express it and the dramatic benefits, as well as a proven way to enhance the expression of klotho in your body and brain.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How can you turn on your longevity genes?During this episode you're going to learn how you can change your own genes? Not change the genes themselves but change which genes are turned on and which ones are turned off so that you can live longer and live healthier for longer.Hannah Went is a molecular biologist who is changing what it means to age well. Hannah used to work for the International Peptide Society as their Director of Research and Content. Then, she saw an opportunity for methylation based age diagnostics and started TruDiagnostics in 2020. Since TruDiagnostic's inception, they have created one of the largest private epigenetic health databases in the world with over 75,000 patients tested to date. Hannah has since created Everything Epigenetics where she shares insights on how DNA regulation has an impact on your health.In this episode Hannah ranks the top 4 habits that will help you live longer and the top one isn't what you'd think - it's not nutrition or exercise.Hannah also takes us through her daily routine and tells us what habits she does and what supplements she takes to ensure a long healthy life.If you care about your long term health, don't miss this episode.Topics Discussed:Do epigenetic modifications turn genes off or on? 5:38Biological Age vs Chronological Age: How Good of a Predictor Is It? 10:49Sleep, Nutrition, Exercise 21:14How to Improve Your Brain as You Age 32:58References:Biological Age is Increased by Stress and Restored Upon Recovery - study by Dr. Jesse Poganik from HarvardBroc Shot Supplement Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/everythingepigenetics/Website:https://www.trudiagnostic.com/https://everythingepigenetics.com/hannah@everythingepigenetics.comYou're listening to The Best You Podcast, where we teach you the healthy habits you need to look and feel like your Best You.

Join me and my esteemed guest, Dr. Charles Brenner, PhD for a fascinating journey through the science of aging and longevity, where we explore the complexities and truths behind what it really means to age gracefully. We challenge the notion that aging is a disease and instead discuss practical strategies for maintaining our vitality—physically, mentally, and emotionally. As we debunk myths like the exaggerated benefits of resveratrol, listen in as we emphasize evidence-based insights and dismantle the disparity between scientific facts and the marketing of anti-aging remedies. Venturing into the realm of genetics, our conversation turns to the role of sirtuins and other genes that have sparked interest in the longevity market. Both initial hype and subsequent rigorous research may temper expectations, but it reminds us of the nuanced relationship between genetic research and its implications on human aging. Moreover, we examine the essential role of NAD in metabolism and how factors like alcohol consumption can compromise this crucial coenzyme system, affecting our health and aging process. Wrapping up, we shift our focus to practical lifestyle choices that can optimize health, such as the balance of diet and exercise, and the role of GLP-1 drugs in weight management. We highlight the impact of NAD and its precursors like NR on cellular health and DNA repair, offering insights into their supplementation and clinical applications.

Aging is inevitable, but can we influence how we age? In this episode of Longevity by Design, hosts Dr. Gil Blander and Ashley Reaver, MS, RD, CSSD,  interview Dr. Nir Barzilai—the Director of the Institute for Aging Research at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the Director of the Paul F. Glenn Center for the Biology of Human Aging Research and of the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) Nathan Shock Centers of Excellence in the Basic Biology of Aging—during which he discusses groundbreaking research on aging. This is an enlightening discussion with Dr. Barzilai on factors influencing healthspan and lifespan, and the paradigm-shifting idea of targeting aging to extend healthspan and lifespan. He shares fascinating insights from his research on the influence of genetics and lifestyle on healthspan and lifespan, and blood biomarkers of aging. The conversation sheds light on the emerging scientific evidence and paradigm-shifting concept for medical interventions (gerotherapeutics) to extend healthspan and lifespan by targeting the underlying biology of aging.The episode wraps up with actionable insights for listeners interested in enhancing their healthspan and longevity. Dr. Barzilai discusses the importance of personalized health strategies, integrating cutting-edge research with everyday health practices while emphasizing the importance of a holistic approach. As a listener, you will leave equipped with knowledge and science-backed ways to navigate your personal health journey and help you live healthier longer.Timestamps:Introduction: 00:00-04:13Why Dr. Barzilai's studies centenarians and their children?: 04:14-10:07 Do centenarians live longer with poor health or live healthier longer? 10:08-13:07Does becoming a centenarian have a strong genetic influence?: 13:08-15:41How do growth hormone and IGF-1 affect healthspan and lifespan?: 15:32-23:39What other genes affect healthspan and lifespan?: 23:40- 26:51Does low IGF-1 negatively impact muscle and physical functioning?: 26:52-28:40What are the effects of ethnicity and socioeconomic status on longevity: 28:41-30:57What is the effect of lifestyle, nutrition, and exercise on the longevity of centenarians?: 30:58-34:07Do women or men live longer?: 34:08-37:55Why do women live longer than men?: 37:56-41:38Biomarkers of aging and biomarkers of organ aging: 41:39-47:07What is metformin, and what is the purpose of the TAME trial?: 47:08-51:37Do you think metformin will improve healthspan and lifespan?: 51:38-54:20Does metformin only improve blood glucose control, or does it benefit health and aging in other ways? 54:21-56:50Is metformin good for older adults but not young adults?: 56:51-57:45How does the combination of metformin and exercise impact muscle size (hypertrophy) and strength?: 57:46-01:00:45Should everyone take metformin?: 01:00:46-01:03:13Dr. Gil Blander's and Dr. Nir Barzilai's personal humorous anecdotes on exercise: 01:03:14-01:04:32Is there a reason and explanation for why metformin did not show an effect on lifespan in mice in the Interventions Testing Program (ITP)?: 01:04:33-01:07:01Are GLP-1 agonists beneficial for healthspan and lifespan?: 01:07:02-01:10:55Are there tradeoffs with using GLP-1 agonists?: 01:10:56-01:11:43What are the top 5 gerotherapeutic candidates for improving healthspan and lifespan?: 01:11:44-01:15:10Dr. Nir Barzilai's top tip for improving health: 01:15:11-01:19:29

 Put your body through pain throughout your live that will activate your genes for longevity… (Dr. David Sinclair Harvard, Professor of genetics)Today they can grow in the lab a brain; age it and increase the longevity. Even a blind rat could grow back its factuality to see again… And this they have done with the 7 longevity genes… All great stuff…The idea to live longer means that we stay younger for a longer period of time without suffering through diseases… and then we should die fast in a healthy matter.Today is it rather so that we suffer for many years through diseases and that we keep us alive by medicaments…  And that is wrong!Dr. Sinclair recommendations: What don’t kill you, makes you live longer.This means controlled pain, for instance: just go in the sauna afterward in an ice-bath and then make your workouts…What makes the body strong helps for longevity and activates the longevity genes.Make Highly intensive training… lose your breath once go over your limit…Or you make this high cold training, you stay in a cold place/water for some time… like the “Wim Hof’ method” this is all science proved for many decades. The idea is, you should go into survival mode. Then your longevity genes kicks in. Convenience, comfortableness makes your body weak… Stay hungry without getting malnutrition…Instead of eating, you fill your stomach with warm water/green tea/juice. If we skip a meal or fast our longevity genes gets activated…That is all true! For instance, they have done surveys with mice, dogs and monkeys…One group stayed comfortable and convenience with food.And the other group stayed hungry…Guess which group has done it better… 20% longer life… I disagree with his other food recommendation, because they are his private recommendation and they are not based on science…!He recommends High carbon food or High fat food (pure olive oil) - but that needs a long digest time and that is in any case bad, and doesn’t make sense for skipping one meal.We should fill up our stomach only up to 60% and with 1 meal daily, we cannot survive with a low carbon and low-fat diet…The trueness is, the raw coast eater, fruit vegetarians have the longest life span, 25 years longer life span than average people…. And that is still the best! For sure they don’t eat grains or fatty food, only a handful of nuts is allowed… and even this I don’t do! His next recommendations are:No smoking.Vegetarian food.Organically grown food.Colored vegetables/fruits. Green leafy vegetables.  Get a good night's sleep… Surround yourself with good people, friends that care for you…Yes, that is all good…My Video: How to live longer through longevity genes? https://youtu.be/U1yToGk8DYcMy Audio: https://rudizimmerer.s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/6/How+to+live+longer+through+longevity+genes.mp3https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZqAKNPxaxchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNUFSLY83YQEnable GingerCannot connect to Ginger Check your internet connection or reload the browserDisable in this text fieldEditEdit in GingerEdit in Ginger×

If you had the chance to slow down the aging process, would you take it? This sci-fi concept may sound like something from a Star Trek episode. But with new research coming to light, anti-aging fiction could very soon be a reality. Maybe it’s all in the genes.  WELCOME TO THE DARIN OLIEN SHOW. On this podcast, you’ll hear me, Darin Olien, “the superfood hunter,” have honest conversations with the extraordinary people that inspire me. I hope that through their knowledge and unique perspectives, they’ll inspire you, too. Although our ideas and approaches to life may differ, our ultimate goal is the same- to save the planet one conversation at a time. So, if you’re interested in expanding your view of the world by learning new perspectives on health, nutrition, and healing the planet, this podcast is for you. Dr. David Sinclair is trying to put a stopper in the aging process. In fact, he’s the one leading the charge. David is the Australian-born Harvard Medical School professor of genetics. He’s also co-director of the Paul F. Glenn Center for the Biology of Aging Research at Harvard Medical School.  On top of all that, he’s also a Professor and Head of the Aging Labs at UNSW, Sydney, and an honorary Professor at the University of Sydney. Like many pioneering scientists, he hasn’t been immune to controversy. But, if you Google his name, you’ll see a laundry list of accolades. Especially within the area he’s best known for is, which are genes and small molecules that delay aging. He is currently spearheading the research into gene function in the aging process, with a really heavy focus on the Sirtuin genes.  Dr. Sinclair and his team are also trying to lift the lid on exactly what roles resveratrol and NAD precursors play in the anti-aging process. Alongside this, David has published over a whopping 170 scientific papers, is a co-inventor on over 50 patents, and co-founded multiple biotech companies in the areas of aging and biodefense.  Oh yeah, and he’s the author of Lifespan: Why We Age and Why We Don’t Have To, which shot him to number 11 on the New York Times bestseller list in just over a week. One of David’s most recent claims to fame was his selection to be one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People In The World. Now that is impressive.  In this conversation, Dr. Sinclair and I get right into the fantastic family of proteins known as Sirtuins and their role in the aging process. We also look at how Intermittent Fasting could turn back the clock. We get into how it all started with yeast cells, and why David is so interested in the NMN molecule. Other great topics we cover: The role Sirtuin genes play and why they’re so bossy Epigenetics and why biological stress isn’t such a bad thing Intermittent fasting and what skipping a meal can do for your body What is Resveratrol and how does it affect the body? Why the NAD molecule is so vital for every living organism The Zombie cells that wreak havoc on your health What David is so excited about for the future of anti-aging science Epigenetic reprogramming and reversing the ticking clock inside us all David’s take on stem cells and how they contribute to the aging process When you should really start taking care of your body Links: David on Facebook David on Twitter David on Instagram – @davidsinclairphd David Sinclair Lab – Harvard Medical School Lifespan Website - Be sure to sign up for Dr. Sinclair’s Newsletter!

Today, I have here with me, Mike Mutzel, YouTuber, podcaster, and teacher of leading-edge science that can be utilized by progressive clinicians for the prevention of chronic disease. Often termed Translational Medicine, this bench-to-bedside approach is critical to ensure the application of pioneering research and concepts in systems biology, a preventative health care setting, optimizing patient outcomes.   Mike earned his B.S. in Biology from Western Washington University in 2006 and completed his M.S. in Clinical Nutrition from the University of Bridgeport in 2015 and is a graduate of the Institute for Functional Medicine’s (IFM) Applying Functional Medicine in Clinical Practice (AFMCP).   He is a Functional Medicine consultant in the natural product industry and has worked as a nutritionist with Gerard Guillory, MD of the Care Group, P.C. in Denver, CO. Mike has lectured alongside Dr. Guillory to large patient-groups in the Denver area, and they have been featured on local T.V. programs discussing the power of Nutrition and Functional Medicine.   In April of 2014, Mike published his first book, Belly Fat Effect: The Real Secret About How Your Diet, Intestinal Health, and Gut Bacteria Help You Burn Fat.   In this episode, Mike Mutzel describes how he started in the health world and why he is so attracted to gut health. Mike explains the importance of a diverse diet and how seasonal eating could be the key to health. Plus, bile is essential for healthy digestion and absorption of fats. Stay tuned for Mike to talk about the problem with Game Changers and how to utilize our parasympathetic tones.   [00:30] About Mike Mutzel Mike got involved in the health world when he started bicycle racing. For the first time in his life, Mike felt depression - he didn’t know what was wrong with him but knew he needed to test his hormones. Mike’s testosterone was extremely low. He started to find out how the food he was eating was affecting his testosterone levels. Overtraining can also affect testosterone. Mike works with doctors to help their patients with diet and lifestyle changes. His YouTube channel launched in 2012. Don’t be afraid to put out YouTube videos; you are going to get better over time.   [11:30] About Our Guts All the crappy foods we eat are high in calories and carbohydrates. They also perturb our microbiome. Microbiome contributes to the inflammatory tone in our bodies. If there is an imbalance, our immune system will also be out of whack. When we eat carbs, and our blood sugar goes up, that is only part of the story. Our brain is connected to our gut. The mechanical exposure to foods affects the different cells. Before we swallow things, our body is anticipating the food. If we train our brain to chew food mindlessly, then that is what will keep happening. We need to slow down, chew our foods, and put down the forks. Fasting will also come into play. We do not need to eat every two to three hours. “A lot of people don’t even know if they are hungry or not anymore.” -Mike Mutzel   [18:15] The Importance of a Diverse Diet A lack of diversity is a lack of stability. People with allergies seem to fair better with a low-carb diet. It’s exactly the opposite of what many people thought five years ago. We cannot totally manipulate our diet to have massive swings in the immune system. Be mindful of ketones, and keep track of your vitals. There are healthy people with low diversity and unhealthy people with high diversity.   [21:45] Seasonal Eating Mike personally emphasizes seasonal eating. He is grateful and fortunate enough to have the financial resources to eat seasonally. Some people do not have the income or resources to eat seasonally. Seasonal eating is an essential piece of the puzzle. Even though blueberries are considered a healthy food; it’s healthy food out of context. Once you get the fast food out of the house and prioritize sleeping, then you can start thinking about eating seasonally.   [33:00] The Importance of Healthy Bile   Bile makes it all the way to the heart and the brain. Bile is so important and underutilized. Mike promotes bile salts. When people are constipated, recirculating bile is not healthy.   [37:10] The Problem with Game Changers The movie is compelling, and loads of people are convinced to go vegan. Mike has tried a vegan diet; it doesn’t accelerate recovery. On a vegan diet, our cells do not regenerate faster. Mike has no problems eating vegetables and fruits. You didn’t see any of the food people ate until the credits. The foods they were eating were a lot of grains.   [44:30] What is the Parasympathetic Tone? Our nervous system has two personalities. Fight or flight mode and relax mode. So many people are hung up in the fight or flight mode. We need to be proactive about unwinding our fight or flight mode. Yoga and meditation are effective and unwinding our fight or flight. There are anti-inflammatory properties when we are in the parasympathetic state. We can refuel our bodies and improve our heart rate variability.   AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode: Check out High Intensity Health Follow Mike Mutzel Twitter Instagram Facebook YouTube Read Belly Fat Effect: The Real Secret About How Your Diet, Intestinal Health, and Gut Bacteria Help You Burn Fat.

May 24, 2012 – Researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology of Yeshiva University have found that personality traits like being extroverted, enjoying laughter and staying engaged may also be part of the longevity genes mix that allows some people to reach age 100 and beyond. The findings published online May 21 in the journal Aging.

August 3, 2011 - New research from scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University suggests that centenarians' lifestyle choices have little to no impact on their extreme longevity and healthy aging. The study was published in the August 3 online edition of the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society.
