EPISODE 122: Healthy cells equal a healthy body! Our body has around 37 trillion cells, making up every tissue, organ, and part of us. However, like every living thing, cells age and eventually reach a state where they can no longer function normally. But they don't die. They enter a state called cellular senescence. While we are young, healthy, and vital, our immune system does a great job targeting these senescent cells, so they aren't an issue. But as we age and our immune system weakens, we start accumulating them, and they start affecting our bodily functions. So, can we do anything to prevent aging at the cellular level and, consequently, aging in general? Yes, there is! And today's guest, Dr. Nick Bitz, knows all about it. He is a naturopathic doctor specializing in Ayurveda, anti-aging, dietary supplements, and cellular senescence. In my interview with Dr. Nick, we talk about the anti-aging powers of senolytics, dietary and lifestyle recommendations that target aging cells, and the connection between brain aging and senescent cells. This insightful conversation has many great tips and information, so tune in! Key Takeaways: Intro (00:00) Cellular senescence (01:41) What are senolytics, and how do they target senescent cells? (08:22) Brain aging (11:13) Anabolic resistance and cellular senescence (14:00) Testing the effects of senolytics on humans and Dr. Nick's personal experiences (20:39) Protocols and different use cases of senolytics (23:26) Diet and lifestyle changes to prevent cellular aging (29:22) Senolytics and cancer (35:18) How Dr. Nick became an Ayurvedic doctor (37:30) On longevity and the future of health (48:53) Final thoughts and outro (55:07) Additional Resources: ➡️ Take the first step to a longer and healthier life: http://LLInsider.com/ ➡️ Coaching with Claudia: https://longevity-and-lifestyle.com/coaching ➡️ Full list of resources, links, and show notes: https://longevity-and-lifestyle.com/podcast-122-dr-nick-bitz ➡️ Special Offer for you dear audience: Get 15% off Qualia products at https://neurohacker.com/longevityandlifestyle - just use the code: longevityandlifestyle Connect with Dr. Nick Bitz: ✨ Neurohacker Collective: https://neurohacker.com/ ✨ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neurohacker/ ✨ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/neurohackercollective ✨ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/neurohacker Follow Claudia on social media: ✨ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/claudiavonB ✨ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/longevityandlifestyle/ ✨ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/claudia-von-boeselager/ ✨ Twitter: https://twitter.com/longevitylifest ✨ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@longevityandlifestyle Follow The Longevity & Lifestyle Podcast: ✨ Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3ogQDBd ✨ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/77XDkcNfzZCasJXL672h01 The Longevity & Lifestyle Podcast is dedicated to everyone who wants to increase their lifespan, improve their quality of life and unlock peak performance.

Did you know that by the age of 40-50, people have anywhere between 10 to 30% senescent cells in their tissues? Senescent cells are one of the hallmarks of aging, and can disrupt physiology throughout the body. Cellular senescence is the process by which cells permanently stop dividing but do not die off. These senescent cells linger inside the body and accumulate over time, affecting the healthy function of tissues and organs as we age. I'm joined by Dr. Nick Bitz, and we're diving into everything you need to know about senescent cells and cellular senescence. We discuss why our bodies need some senescent cells, and some of the lifestyle changes we can make to support the body's ability to clear senescent cells. Plus, we answer the question: How young is too young to be worried about your senescent cells? Dr. Nick Bitz is a Naturopathic Physician that specializes in Ayurvedic medicine. He is a leading voice in the natural products industry and currently serves as Senior VP of Product Development at Neurohacker Collective. His areas of expertise include nootropics, anti-aging medicine, biohacking, herbology, nutrition and dietary supplements.

Autophagy is the process by which cells break down and recycle their own components. Promoting autophagy can help reduce the formation of senescent cells, as it can help the body remove damaged cells and other debris that can accumulate and lead to cell senescence. Senescent cells can accumulate in different tissues and organs, such as the skin, heart, and lungs, and can disrupt normal function. Therefore, it is important to address senescent cells in all tissues and organs to ensure optimal health.

This episode is a fascinating interview with fellow ND and Bastyr graduate, Dr. NIck Bitz who is now part of product formulation at Neurohacker. We talked about my current favorite nootropic product Qualiamind BUT also we talked about the emerging concepts of aging. Nick does a fantastic job of explaining what exactly is cellular aging and what are the hallmarks of this process. We talk about zombie-like cells that are known as “senescent” cells that can't quite complete their life cycle and rope other cells into this unhelpful state. New research on aging points towards a few key compounds found in plants known as senolytics that will help clear up these senescent cells. As well, Dr. Bitz and I share our favorite senolytic lifestyle and nutrition habits as well to help us all age better. We wrap up the interview with exactly how to dose these senolytic compounds and supplements, which is unlike any vitamin you've ever taken so be sure to tune into this one!

Senolytics are a science field with the potential to revolutionize human aging. In 2016, two of the top medical research institutions in the country- The Mayo Clinic, and Scripps- published some pretty astounding research. They identified ingredients that help our bodies naturally eliminate senescent cells! And in the years since, many other studies have demonstrated the power of these little-known ingredients. Meanwhile at Neurohacker, the research we were doing for healthy aging products - Qualia Life and Qualia Skin - led us to the emerging research on cellular senescence. Our team of scientists and doctors for years evaluated senolytic ingredients - ranking each according to its efficacy and mechanism of action. In this episode we sat down with two members of the Neurohacker Science Team - Dr. Greg Kelly and Dr. Nick Bitz with the goal of sharing everything we have learned along the way. The message is clear: the research surrounding senolytics is absolutely worth paying attention to. And today, we're here to break down the science for you.

The Hallmarks of Aging are nine distinct biological mechanisms that have been identified as major drivers behind the aging process. These hallmark systems include: Genomic instability Loss of proteostasis (the ability to maintain protein balance). Deregulated nutrient sensing (metabolism changes with age). Mitochondrial dysfunction (energy production decreases over time). Cellular senescence—a state in which cells cease dividing after 40-60 divisions or when damage occurs. And inflammation and microbiome disturbances, both of which can play significant roles in health decline due to aging. In this podcast, we interview Dr. Nick Bitz, a Naturopathic Physician that specializes in Ayurvedic medicine. He is a leading voice in the natural products industry and currently serves as Senior VP of Product Development at Neurohacker Collective. His areas of expertise include nootropics, anti-aging medicine, biohacking, herbology, nutrition and dietary supplements. What is Cellular senescence Cellular senescence is a process by which cells in the body grow old and permanently stop dividing. It is one of the nine hallmarks of aging, making it an important factor to consider when looking at strategies for slowing down or reversing the aging process. Exercise, fasting, mimicking diets, low-calorie diets, immune system support, and analytics are all strategies that can be used to target cellular senescence. Exercise has been shown to reduce biomarkers associated with senescent cells while fasting; mimicking diets can help boost cell repair through autophagy. A healthy immune system will also facilitate more efficient removal of these lingering old cells from the body. The connection between brain aging and senescent cells Nick says: “As we age, it is important to pay attention to our brain health in order to maintain optimal cognition, mood and memory”. Recent research has uncovered a connection between brain aging and senescent cells. Senolytic activity within the brain can help reduce these senescent cells that get lodged in between the brain cells and promote regeneration for better functioning as we age.“ “Nutrients such as turmeric which have powerful anti-inflammatory properties can be used with a new lens to support this senolytic activity within the brain”. Additionally, consumption of healthy fats on a daily basis helps support overall cognitive function since they are necessary for proper signaling among neurons in the body.” In this podcast you will learn about: What are the "Hallmarks of Aging?". Why is cellular senescence (a Hallmark of Aging) important for aging. What's anabolic resistance and how does that connect to senescent cells? The connection between brain aging and senescent cells? Diet and lifestyle behaviors related to senescent cells?

Dr. Nick Bitz from Neuro Hackers shares his insight on Senolytics, a revolutionary compound that targets aging cells in our bodies. Aging is a natural part of life but there are many things we can do today that will help us age gracefully. In addition to Senolytics, Nick explains how Ayurvedic medicine will help you identify your body's individual needs and create a personalized guide to help you rejuvenate your body, which is in essence anti aging. Key Takeaways: [0:20] The 9 hallmarks of aging [2:40] Senolytics: targeting our aging cells [5:30] Studies show senolytics are best taken in larger doses instead of daily [6:45] Senolytics compounds have the potential to cross the blood brain barrier [8:40] What you can do to support Senolytic compounds: exercise, fasting, Immune Support [11:20] Building resilience: sleep, personalize an energetic diet, adaptogens [12:40] Ayurvedic Medicine: The science of living and matching your lifestyle to your body type [17:00] Rejuvenation: Restoring the water element to your body [18:46] Abhyanga: Daily self massage with the right oil for your skin. Mentioned in the Episode: https://neurohacker.com/ Twitter: “It's better to consume multiple senolytics at once, rather than just a single agent, just to make sure that you're giving your body the greatest chance of eliminating these senescent cells.” [4:44] “Sleep that's critically important to building resilience. If you're not sleeping adequately, you can't maintain resilience in any kind of significant way. [11:36] “It's all about rejuvenation which is in essence anti aging.” [17:18]
