The 3 Best Supplements for Mitochondria, Energy & Longevity in Menopause Get my free Longevity Stack Masterclass and Supplement Guide for women to learn how to build a personalised supplement stack: https://academy.angelafosterperformance.com/free-longevity-stack-masterclass In this episode, Angela explains how mitochondria produce energy, why mitochondrial function can become less efficient with age and hormonal change, and the three advanced supplements she personally uses as part of her longevity strategy: NAD precursors, urolithin A and MitoQ. You'll discover how each targets a different aspect of mitochondrial health — energy production, mitochondrial renewal and protection against oxidative stress — and why supplements work best when layered on top of the fundamentals of sleep, nutrition, exercise, cardiovascular fitness, stress management and, where appropriate, optimising hormones. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why Energy Can Change in Menopause — Declining oestrogen can influence mitochondrial biogenesis and the efficiency of cellular energy production. NAD for Cellular Energy — NAD plays a critical role in helping mitochondria convert food and oxygen into ATP, the energy currency of your cells. Urolithin A for Mitochondrial Renewal — Urolithin A supports mitophagy, the body's natural process for clearing damaged mitochondria and making room for healthier ones. MitoQ for Mitochondrial Protection — MitoQ is designed to reach the mitochondria directly and help protect them against oxidative stress generated during energy production. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS 01:38 — Three different ways to support mitochondrial health 02:50 — Supplement #1: NAD and cellular energy production 04:10 — Supplement #2: Urolithin A and mitophagy 06:22 — Supplement #3: MitoQ and oxidative stress 08:01 — Why supplements should come after the foundations 08:16 — Angela's longevity supplement protocol and free masterclass Want to go deeper?

Paul Pritchard is one of the most significant figures in British climbing. He became one of Britain's leading rock climbers and mountaineers, with major first ascents across the UK, Patagonia, Baffin Island, Yosemite, Kyrgyzstan and the Karakoram. His first ascent of the West Face of Mount Asgard in 1994 remains one of his defining achievements.He was also the first author to have won the Boardman Tasker Prize for Mountain Literature twice — for Deep Play, and later, The Totem Pole.In 1998, everything changed.While climbing Tasmania's Totem Pole, Paul was struck in the head by a falling rock, sustaining a near-fatal brain injury that left him with hemiplegia. He spent the next year in hospital and has described the decades since as his longest project: healing, adapting, and learning to live one moment at a time.And yet today, Paul says he gives thanks to the Totem Pole every morning.This is not simply a comeback story. It's a conversation about mortality, fear, acceptance, freedom, identity, and what happens when the life you expected disappears.We talk about why losing choices can sometimes make us freer, why fear doesn't need to disappear before we act, how aging changes the need to prove ourselves, and Paul's idea of the “dignity of risk.”If none of us knows how much time we have, what are we still postponing?REFERENCESPaul's excellent books:: Deep Play | The Totem Pole | The Longest Climb | The Mountain Path on his website at https://www.paulpritchard.com.au/booksPaul's Instagram: @paulpritchard
In this episode, Dr. David Jockers is joined by his longtime friend Dr. Josh Axe, co-founder and chief visionary officer of Ancient Nutrition, founder of draxe.com, and founder of The Health Institute, for a deep dive into cellular longevity. You will learn why some organs age faster than others, what's really happening inside your cell membranes and mitochondria as you get older, and which foods, from super berries and pomegranates to organ meats, healthy fats, fermented foods, and longevity mushrooms, do the most to slow that process down. Dr. Axe and Dr. Jockers also break down his top longevity supplements, including vitamin D, soil-based probiotics, omega-3s, magnesium, and NAD/NMN, why quality matters so much more than quantity when it comes to supplements, and the surprising role of the gut microbiome, bee products, and daily herbal tea in living a longer, more vibrant life.

Full show notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/holyhealth In this episode with Justin Roethlingshoefer, you'll hear from a former NHL performance coach turned health entrepreneur whose new book, Holy Health, is the one I chose for my father-son book club this month. This is not another eat-honey-and-drink-milk Bible health book. Justin is a genuine biohacker who works with pro athletes worldwide, and he has woven deep spiritual and physiological science into the same framework. You'll learn why the modern obsession with optimization can quietly become idolatry, how the drive to control your metrics keeps your nervous system stuck in fight-or-flight and lowers your HRV, and the five "hearts" that trap high performers in striving. You'll also get the practical side: his full morning and evening rhythms, why he starts his day at 6 p.m. rather than at sunrise, the breathwork he does midday in the grass, his exact zone two and zone five weekly targets, and how he folds three and a half hours of zone two into family walks with a weighted vest. It's a conversation about doing less frantic optimizing and more intentional stewardship, and it may reframe how you think about every biohack you own.

We spend a lot of time preparing our bodies for the next 30 or 40 years.Strength. Mobility. Sleep. Recovery. Longevity.But almost nobody prepares for how sex, desire, intimacy, and pleasure may change over that same stretch of time.In this conversation, I speak with Joan Price, one of the best-known voices on sex and aging, about what changes, what can actually get better, and what we should understand long before we think we need to.Joan is 82, but much of what she shares may be most useful in your thirties, forties, and fifties.We talk about physical changes, why exercise matters, how desire evolves, why communication becomes more important, and how intimacy can adapt as we age.This is a conversation about the next 40 years of your body — and a part of longevity we rarely prepare for.Note: This episode includes frank discussion of sex, sexual function, grief, and intimacy.Joan's Books & ResourcesJoan's books include Naked at Our Age, Sex After Grief, The Ultimate Guide to Sex After 50, Better Than I Ever Expected, and Ageless Erotica.Learn more about Joan's books, webinars, newsletter, and other resources at JoanPrice.com.

If you're training hard, eating well, and still watching your waist thicken, I want you to hear this: you are not lazy, and your metabolism is not broken. Something else is going on, and once you see it, belly fat stops feeling like a mystery you can't crack. So I called in four people I trust most on this, Ben Azadi, Dr Sarah Berry, Cynthia Thurlow, and Mary Claire Haver. Together we get into why cortisol parks fat right around your middle, how losing estrogen quietly reroutes fat from your hips to your belly, and why the exact same meal spikes your blood sugar far more after menopause than it did before. We go deep on the pieces most women never get told about, the muscle you're losing, the gut and estrobolome shifts, and the insulin exposure that makes this fat feel so stubborn. Then I hand you the fix. My five levers, in the order that actually works, from breaking up long sitting to resistance training, smart HIIT, whole-food carbs, and protecting your sleep and stress. And I tell you honestly where fasted training helps and where it just becomes another way to punish yourself. If you're a busy woman over 40 who's done with "eat less, move more" and wants to know which lever your body needs first, this one's for you. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN - Does cortisol cause belly fat in women over 40? - Why does fat move to your belly during menopause? - Is menopause belly fat caused by a slow metabolism? - What is visceral fat and why is it dangerous? - Can you gain visceral fat even if the scale doesn't move? - Why do post-menopausal women have higher blood sugar spikes? - How does insulin resistance drive stubborn belly fat? - Does the gut microbiome affect body composition in midlife? - How does breaking up sitting improve insulin sensitivity? - Does resistance training help you lose belly fat after 40? - Does HIIT reduce abdominal fat in women? - Does fasted training help burn visceral fat? TIMESTAMPS - 00:00 Why Cortisol Drives Stubborn Belly Fat In Women Over 35 - 03:00 Insulin Resistance, Estrogen Loss And Why Menopause Moves Fat To Your Belly - 09:44 How Muscle Loss And Your Gut Control Midlife Body Composition - 16:11 Why Menopause Belly Fat Is Dangerous And How To Shift Visceral Fat - 17:59 The 5 Levers To Lose Midlife Belly Fat Without A Broken MetabolismVALUABLE RESOURCES Timeline - Support your mitochondrial health: Timeline Mitopure delivers Urolithin A at the clinically studied dose to support cellular renewal and energy production, helping counter the natural decline in mitochondrial function that comes with age.

Emily Werner, PhD, RD, CSSD, IFNCP is Team Dietitian for the Philadelphia 76ers (NBA) and Philadelphia Flyers (NHL), and Nutrition Affairs Sport Lead at Timeline. Dr. Emily joins Dr. Mike to unpack postbiotics, urolithin A, and why mitochondrial health matters for pro athletes and everyday people alike, digging into the real research behind Timeline's Mitopure and why chasing $200K gadgets rarely beats getting the fundamentals right. Expect to learn what a postbiotic actually is and how urolithin A differs from other supplements, why old-school and new-school sports dietitians disagree on peptides and supplement fads, how chronic undereating quietly undermines performance in women's sports, what the current human performance research on urolithin A actually shows, how Mitopure is dosed and why urolithin A can't be reliably food-sourced, and why product quality and manufacturing integrity matter more than marketing claims, and much more.

Full show notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/peptides2026 In this episode with Dr. Matt Cook, recorded days after he returned from Washington, D.C., you'll get a breakdown of what just happened to peptides in the United States. You'll hear what the FDA's Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee actually voted on, why seven popular peptides were pulled two years ago, which six of the seven were just recommended for the bulk list, which one was left off, and what all of it means for your ability to get peptides legally from a pharmacy instead of the gray market. You'll also get a guided tour of the peptides themselves: BPC-157 for gut and tissue healing, KPV for inflammation, TB-500 for cell migration and wound repair, MOTS-c as an exercise mimetic, Semax for memory and learning, Epitalon for sleep and longevity, and DSIP for sleep. Dr. Cook explains why peptides behave so differently from ordinary drugs, walks through a safety review covering millions of doses, and shows how his company LifeOS pulls your labs, wearables, and genetics into one HIPAA-compliant place. And if you want to keep every peptide straight, Dr. Cook built a peptide cheat sheet covering what each one does, how to dose it, and where to source it.

Dr. Ted Lain and Dr. Patti Farris cut through the hype around today's most popular longevity supplements.They dig into the real (and often surprisingly thin) clinical evidence behind NAD precursors like NMN and nicotinamide riboside, the gut-derived compound Urolithin A, creatine for brain and muscle health, multivitamins and the buzzy Cosmos trial, and off-label rapamycin use.Along the way, they talk through epigenetic clocks, precision medicine, why mouse studies don't always translate to humans, and why "TBD" might be the most honest verdict on longevity science right now.Plus, details on their upcoming Science of Skin Longevity Summit, February 19–21, 2027, in Scottsdale, Arizona.Disclaimer: This podcast is not intended to provide diagnosis, treatment, or medical advice.

If you've been told that menopause means muscle loss, weight gain, and declining strength are inevitable, the science says otherwise. In this episode, world-renowned strength scientist Dr. Eric Helms explains what actually drives body composition changes during perimenopause and menopause and why progressive strength training, good sleep, and consistent nutrition matter far more than chasing the latest social media trends. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why sleep disruption during perimenopause may be the biggest hidden driver of fat gain, poor recovery, and stalled progress Why progressive overload not lifting the heaviest weights possible is the key to building muscle and protecting bone health Whether women really need to train with heavy 5x5 programs or if moderate weights and higher reps work just as well How many sets, reps, and weekly training sessions are actually needed to build muscle after 40 Why muscle building should take priority over endless fat-loss cycles if you want to improve your shape and body composition The biggest myths about training timing, fasted workouts, cortisol, and "optimal" exercise routines How much cardio you really need for longevity, metabolic health, and body composition Whether women can build significant muscle in their 40s, 50s, and beyond even if they've never lifted weights before What the evidence actually says about menopause hormone therapy (HRT), testosterone therapy, muscle growth, and body composition How much protein you really need for muscle growth, fat loss, and healthy ageing and why total daily intake matters more than perfect meal timing Whether collagen supplements truly improve connective tissue and skin health according to the latest research TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Why body composition changes during perimenopause00:31 What's really happening physiologically during menopause01:10 Why sleep becomes the biggest factor affecting results03:25 How poor sleep impacts muscle gain and fat loss06:20 Bloating, water retention, and hormonal changes explained08:55 The biggest mistakes women make during menopause11:20 Why resistance training is the most important intervention16:50 Do women really need to lift heavy?22:30 How to build muscle and improve body shape after 4026:30 The ideal rep ranges, training intensity, and volume30:57 How much training is actually enough?37:56 Cardio for longevity, health, and body composition42:53 Can women still achieve incredible results in their 40s and 50s?49:00 The truth about hormone replacement therapy and testosterone54:35 Protein recommendations explained01:06:00 Does collagen actually work?01:09:18 Final takeaways A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible:
Urolithin A (Mitopure) and Mitochondrial Renewal--Muscle, Immune, and Skin Benefits: Jen Scheinman, MS, RDN, CDN, Director of Science Communications at Timeline details urolithin A and Timeline's branded supplement Mitopure. She describes urolithin A's discovery through pomegranate research and worm studies showing a 45% lifespan increase. She discusses human research including improved walking distance and clinical outcomes in muscle endurance and strength. Urolithin A is presented as supporting mitochondrial health by promoting mitophagy—recycling damaged mitochondria—distinct from other mitochondrial supports like CoQ10 and NAD precursors. They explain most people cannot produce enough urolithin A from foods because only 30–40% convert precursors via the microbiome and it would require about six cups of pomegranate juice daily. Dosing discussed is 500–1,000 mg/day via gummies, capsules, or powder, with effects developing over months. She reviews emerging research on immune aging, preclinical work on brain and neurodegenerative conditions, and topical urolithin A for skin.

You already know something has changed - the energy crashes, the slow recovery, the brain fog that wasn't there ten years ago. Most people assume that's just aging. But it's NOT. Nobel Prize-winning research has identified a single molecule that controls how fast your body breaks down, and more importantly, exactly why yours is being destroyed faster than it's being rebuilt. The fix isn't complicated, but the order you do it in matters. In this video, Dave breaks down what this molecule is, why your body is actively working against it, and the exact protocol (diet, fasting, exercise, and supplementation) to restore it before the gap gets any wider.Thank you to our sponsors!Gatlan | Book your free consultation at www.gatlan.com/DAVEViome | Check it out at viome.com and use code 10DAVE for 10% off.

Why Wearing Sunscreen All Day May Be Doing More Harm Than Good for Women Over 40 In this thought-provoking episode, Angela Foster sits down with renowned beauty expert and author Liz Earle MBE to challenge conventional wisdom about sunscreen and sun exposure. Liz discusses why current public health messaging around universal, all-day SPF use might be too extreme, potentially robbing us of vital Vitamin D and other essential benefits of natural daylight. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many people assume they still get Vitamin D while wearing sunscreen. However, Liz points out that this only happens because most people apply it too thinly or miss spots. Applying high SPF when it is completely unnecessary, like on a dark winter morning during an underground commute, is a sign that public health messaging has become too broad. Our skin isn't just a physical barrier; it actively receives light and communicates with the body's immune system. Exposing your skin to gentle, early-morning sunlight (when the UV index is low) acclimatizes it. Medical professionals and researchers are beginning to speak out against extreme sun avoidance. BEST MOMENTS "When people say, 'Yes, you get Vitamin D from the sun when you're using sunscreen,' yeah, because you're not using your sunscreen properly. You're actually allowing some of that UVB to come through the skin." "The worst thing that we can do is stay indoors all year and then rush out for our two-week summer beach holiday and fry ourselves on the beach... That's because our skin has not got used to the sunlight." "The skin is actually an organ of light reception. This is what we're just beginning to understand, that the skin has light receptors on it for reasons—they're signaling, it's not just blocking and keeping our insides intact." "I don't know if you take collagen supplements, I do, but actually by going out in early morning light, I'm telling my body to make more collagen. So it's preparing the skin." "He says that he thinks that we will look back at this time and our lack of sun exposure as being as damaging to our health as smoking."

Whittling your diet down to five "safe" foods isn't healing your gut — it's masking a deeper imbalance that declining estrogen may be driving. Nutrition expert Cynthia Thurlow joins Angela Foster to unpack why so many women suddenly can't tolerate foods they once ate freely, and what's really happening behind the bloating, palpitations and brain fog. The conversation explores the link between estrogen loss and a leaky small intestine, the histamine-hormone "perfect storm" that can trigger hives and cramping, and why bloating during perimenopause is so often multifactorial. Cynthia also explains when bloating becomes a red flag worth investigating. You'll learn how to identify your personal food triggers without cutting entire food groups, why eating in a parasympathetic state matters, and which gut supports — from fibre and hydration to TUDCA — can help as progesterone and estrogen decline. If you've ever felt like your body suddenly turned against your favourite foods, this episode will help you understand why. KEY TAKEAWAYS Stop eliminating food groups as your default fix. Whittling your diet down to a handful of "safe" foods signals an underlying gut imbalance that needs support — not an ever-expanding exclusion list. Recognise food sensitivities as a likely leaky gut symptom. As estrogen declines it acts like failing "mortar" in the small intestinal lining, letting food particles leak into the bloodstream and provoke an immune response. Watch the histamine-estrogen "perfect storm." During high-estrogen days, loading up on high-histamine foods (leftovers, kombucha, fermented items) can trigger hives, congestion, cramping and diarrhoea — so keep histamine foods low or infrequent during those windows. Eat in a parasympathetic state. Sit at a table, remove distractions, and take four to five deep breaths before meals rather than eating standing, in the car, or on the move. Always get persistent bloating evaluated. Bloating from morning to night is different from bloating that appears after meals, and persistent symptoms should be checked because, in rare cases, they can signal something serious like ovarian cancer. QUOTES "The goal is to never get to a point where you're excluding entire classes of foods." "If we look at the small intestinal lining as like a brick and mortar system, the mortar is the estrogen." "I literally was talking to a podcast host and I broke out in hives head to toe because I was high estrogen, high histamine stress. And it was like the perfect storm." "It's not really that you need to cut out all these food groups. We just have a nuanced conversation. Don't go overboard with any one food." "I've just seen too many people blow off symptoms for a year or two that end up being bigger issues than they would have been had they been addressed up front."

Brad explains the proposed mechanisms, the current human evidence, and what outcomes have actually been shown to improve, from cellular-level changes through to potential real-world benefits.Mikki and Brad also discuss who may be the best fit for a supplement like this, including older adults, athletes, and those already doing the fundamentals well, while also addressing the limitations of the current research and how to think about bias when science and industry intersect.The conversation then shifts to resistance training, where Brad shares key takeaways from the ACSM position stand he led, including what matters most for strength, hypertrophy, and health, and what people can probably stop overthinking.It's a balanced, evidence-informed conversation about mitochondrial health, supplementation, strength training, and the practical foundations that still matter most.Brad Currier is the Science Lead at Timeline Nutrition, where his work focuses on translating emerging research on mitochondrial health into practical, evidence-based applications. In particular, he has been closely involved in the science and communication around Urolithin A, the active ingredient in Mitopure, and its potential role in supporting muscle function, cellular energy, and healthy ageing.With a background in exercise science and resistance training research, Brad brings a dual lens to his work—combining performance-focused insights with a broader interest in longevity and metabolic health. He has contributed to large-scale evidence syntheses in resistance training, helping clarify what actually matters for strength, hypertrophy, and overall health, and where the field may have overcomplicated things.At Timeline, his role sits at the intersection of research, education, and application, helping bridge the gap between mechanistic science, clinical relevance, and real-world use—particularly as interest grows in interventions that support muscle and mitochondrial function across the lifespan.Brad Currier https://www.instagram.com/bradcurrier.phd/• ACSM Position Stand on Resistance Training (2026) - https://journals.lww.com/acsm-msse/fulltext/2026/04000/american_college_of_sports_medicine_position.21.aspx• Timeline Nutrition - https://www.timeline.com• Curranz Supplement: Use code MIKKIPEDIA to get 20% off your first order - go to www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk to order yours NZ listeners - save 10% off Calocurb by using the code Mikkipedia10 at www.calocurb.co.nzContact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

Navigating midlife body changes can feel like waking up in a completely different body, even when your routine hasn't changed. Around 15% of active women transition through menopause without experiencing significant weight gain, finding that standard calorie deficits and exercise still work. However, the vast majority notice that previously effective fitness and nutrition habits suddenly stop yielding results. This shift is highly associated with a changing hormonal environment—specifically decreasing estradiol and declining progesterone levels—rather than just the natural ageing process. While it seems logical that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) would be the perfect fix, the reality is much more complex. HRT yields highly variable results for body composition; it helps some lose fat, has no impact on others, and can even cause weight gain. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Approximately 15% of active women navigate menopause without significant weight gain and can still successfully lose weight using standard calorie deficits. For many women, the fitness and nutrition strategies that worked five or ten years ago become noticeably less effective during midlife. Accelerated fat gain during menopause is heavily associated with decreasing estradiol and progesterone levels, alongside rising follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Distinguishing between weight gain caused by natural ageing and weight gain caused specifically by menopause remains a complex challenge for researchers. Hormone therapy does not offer a universal solution for weight management, with individual results varying wildly from fat loss to unexpected fat gain.

Dr. Corey Schuler, PhD(c), FNP, DC, CNS, and director of medical affairs at Allergy Research Group, details his paper “Energy Allocation Resilience and Endocrine Integration” in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences. He introduces the Energy Allocation System (EAS), which emphasizes how the body allocates energy—not just produces it—and links many symptoms to impaired bioenergetics and resilience. They discuss mitochondria as energy generators and cellular signaling hubs, the integrated stress response and endocrine coordination (HPA axis, thyroid, gonads), and mitohormesis/eustress (exercise, fasting, heat/cold, circadian “zeitgebers”). Schuler explains nuanced testing for fatigue (diurnal cortisol, CGM patterns, thyroid markers including T3/reverse T3) and a case of a perimenopausal woman where oral contraceptives and cortisol dysregulation affected glucose patterns. They cover mitochondrial support (removing obstacles like pollutants/antibiotics, triglycerides, carnitine, dietary fats, micronutrients) and pacing/sequencing lifestyle interventions.

What if the reason you feel more tired, foggy, or just not like yourself anymore… isn't just hormones or “getting older” — but something happening deeper in your body? In this episode, I sit down with Jen Scheinman, a registered dietitian with over 25 years of experience in nutrition and healthy aging and Director of Science Communications at Timeline Nutrition. Jen is one of the leading educators on Urolithin A — a postbiotic compound found in Mitopure — and its role in mitochondrial health, cellular renewal, and longevity. Beyond Timeline, she also runs her own practice, Next Jen Health, where she helps women optimize vitality through the menopause transition and beyond. We explore a part of our health that most of us have never really been taught to think about—our mitochondria, the energy centers inside our cells — and why so many women start to feel a shift in their 30s and 40s, when the things that used to work suddenly don't. Jen breaks down the science in a way that actually makes sense, connecting fatigue, brain fog, and changes in your body to what's happening at the cellular level. We talk about why diet and exercise can stop working the way they used to, how your gut and environment impact your energy, and what's really going on beneath the surface as we age. We also explore the difference between living longer and actually feeling good while you do it — and what it looks like to support your body in a way that aligns with how it truly works.

Why Isn't Everyone Talking About Mitochondria? with Jennifer Scheinman Most people learned the word in 10th-grade biology and never thought about it again. That, argues registered dietitian and longevity expert Jennifer Scheinman, is exactly the problem. In this episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily Fletcher sits down with Jennifer, a nutritionist with over 25 years of experience and a longevity expert at Timeline, the company behind the clinically studied Urolithin A supplement MitoPure, for a conversation that reframes everything from fatigue to aging to consciousness through the lens of your cells. Jennifer explains how the mitochondria work, why their decline accelerates in your 40s and 60s, and what you can actually do to slow that process. They cover the 12 biological hallmarks of aging, the cellular recycling system (mitophagy) that breaks down over time, why so many people can't produce Urolithin A on their own, and how to evaluate supplements in an industry the FDA doesn't fully regulate. They also connect it all to meditation, to stress, to perimenopause, and to the Greek myth of Persephone and the pomegranate. And at the very end: a fact about mitochondrial DNA that changes the way you think about your mother, your grandmother, and the feminine line you carry. In this episode, they explore: – What mitochondria are, what they do, and why they're more like a CEO than a powerhouse – The cellular recycling process (mitophagy) and why it slows with age – Zombie cells, inflammaging, and the 12 hallmarks of biological aging – Why aging isn't linear — and what the research says about the 40s and 60s – How meditation reduces the inflammation driving cellular decline – Urolithin A: what it is, how your gut should be making it, and why most people's isn't – How to read supplement labels and avoid "fairy dusting" and borrowed science – Timeline's clinical research: what the trials showed and how long results take – The topical MitoPure skincare line and UV-related skin aging – Why mitochondrial DNA is inherited exclusively through the maternal line – Persephone, pomegranates, 108 seeds, and the convergence of myth and molecule Key Moments: 00:00 — The question that opens the episode 03:00 — Mitochondria 101: what they really are 08:15 — Every cell except red blood cells runs on mitochondrial energy 10:00 — Mitophagy: your body's cellular cleanup crew 13:00 — Why aging accelerates in the 40s and again in the 60s 16:00 — Zombie cells and the inflammaging hallmark 19:00 — Meditation's effect on cellular inflammation — the Ziva link 25:00 — Fasting and perimenopause: what the science says for women 29:00 — How to evaluate supplements when labels aren't regulated 35:00 — Urolithin A: gut-made, often missing, and why it matters 40:00 — Why food alone won't get you there (6 cups of pomegranate juice a day) 44:00 — The clinical trials: muscle endurance at 2 months, strength at 4 months 53:00 — Urolithin A + exercise: a likely additive effect 58:00 — How Dr. Gabrielle Lyon first put this on Emily's radar 01:01:00 — The skincare line: bringing MitoPure topically 01:03:00 — Mitochondrial DNA and the matrilineal inheritance 01:05:00 — Persephone, pomegranates, and the place where science meets spirit About Jennifer Scheinman Jennifer Scheinman is a registered dietitian and nutritionist with over 25 years of experience.

Full Show Notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/sisson2026 In this episode with Mark Sisson, you'll discover why VO2 Max may be overrated as the gold standard for longevity, and why chasing it cost Mark 32 pounds of muscle and the real-world function that actually matters. You'll explore his "Old Man Olympics" framework: a decathlete's approach to fitness at 72, spanning strength, speed, balance, and endurance. You'll also get his take on cold plunging, alcohol, biohacking, AI, and find out why foot health may be the single most overlooked lever in your longevity toolkit, from bunions to glute activation to big toe function. Mark Sisson ignited the ancestral health movement with Mark's Daily Apple and The Primal Blueprint, popularized keto and intermittent fasting with The Keto Reset Diet and Two Meals a Day, and sold Primal Kitchen to Kraft Heinz for $200M. He now runs Peluva, a toe-separated shoe company built around restoring foot strength and healthy gait, and is the author of Born to Walk.
We tend to think of heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer's as separate problems. But what if they all stem from the same underlying process? On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Dr. Eric Verdin, whose research, including work on compounds like urolithin A, is helping reshape how we think about aging and long-term health. We explore why aging may be the biggest driver of chronic disease and what that means for how you approach your health. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. We unpack: • How your immune system becomes both overactive and less effective over time • What chronic inflammation is doing inside your body and how to start bringing it back into balance • Why cellular energy and mitochondrial health are key to repair and recovery • How your microbiome shapes inflammation, immunity, and long-term health • The daily habits that impact longevity most and where people get it wrong This conversation reflects a shift in how we think about health, moving beyond treating disease to understanding what's driving it in the first place.

When you hit your 40s, you start catching colds more easily, wounds take longer to heal, and you feel rundown even after a full night's sleep. Your doctor will tell you "it's just aging." They're wrong.It's actually your immune cells suffocating on toxic waste because their power plants—your mitochondria—are breaking down.In this video, I explain the exact biological mechanism behind "immune aging" and why your body's natural cleanup system (mitophagy) stalls out in your 40s and 50s. More importantly, I'm sharing the breakthrough compound scientists discovered that actually reverses this. It's a molecule called Urolithin A, originally found in pomegranates.I dive into the massive problem with trying to get this molecule from food (only 30% of people have the right gut bacteria to even make it), and the 15 years of human clinical trials behind Mitopure—the supplement that bypasses your gut completely. I even share why I spent $100,000 on an extreme T-cell procedure before I knew I could just take this to get a younger immune system in 28 days.00:00 – Immune Decline After 4000:39 – Why Immune Cells Weaken01:17 – The Role of Mitochondria02:25 – Mitophagy & Its Decline05:45 – The Ancient Fruit: Pomegranates06:39 – The Problem With Pomegranates07:19 – Urolithin A as a Supplement08:33 – Trial Results09:58 – About MitoPure10:46 – Call to ActionThank you to our sponsors!-GOT MOLD? | Go to http://gotmold.com/shopand use DAVE10 to save 10% and see what's in your air.-Superstratum Labs | Get Dave's exact home mold detox kit and save 10% at superstratumlabs.com/products/dave-iRestore | Reverse hair loss at www.irestore.com/DAVE and get exclusive savings on the iRestore Elite, use code DAVEConnect with Dave Asprey!Website: https://daveasprey.comTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@daveaspreyofficialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dave.asprey/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Daveaspreyofficial/X: https://x.com/daveaspreyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/daveaspreybprThe Human Upgrade Podcast: https://www.instagram.com/TheHumanUpgradePodcast/ https://m.facebook.com/Thehumanupgrade/Danger Coffee: https://dangercoffee.com/DAVE15Dave Asprey's BEYOND Conference: https://beyondconference.com/Dave Asprey's New Book - Heavily Meditated: https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated/Dave's favorite supplements: https://www.shopsuppgradelabs.com/discount/DAVE15Upgrade Labs: https://upgradelabs.com40 Years of Zen: https://40yearsofzen.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Full Show Notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/nadplus In this fascinating episode, Dr. Nichola Conlon, molecular biologist and founder of Nuchido, breaks down what NAD actually is, what it does inside your cells, and why most popular strategies for boosting it, including NAD IVs, patches, and high-dose NR or NMN, may be fundamentally flawed based on molecular biology. You’ll discover why NAD declines by half every 20 years, why the NAMPT enzyme and not a shortage of raw material is the real bottleneck, and why flooding the body with precursors without fixing the salvage pathway can actually strain your methylation pathways rather than raise NAD. You’ll also explore how inflammation through the cluster of differentiation 38 (CD38) enzyme silently drains NAD faster than almost anything else, what a gold standard double-blind placebo-controlled crossover clinical trial on Nuchido TIME+ actually showed, and why NAD sits at the intersection of energy production, cellular repair, sleep, skin health, and biological aging. Dr. Nichola Conlon (BSc, MRes, PhD) specializes in cellular aging. After a career in drug development, Dr. Nichola founded Nuchido, driven by her belief that cutting-edge science should not lie hidden. At Nuchido, Dr. Nichola’s work focuses on delivering disruptive innovation in the field of anti-aging, rejuvenation, and healthspan. It has led to the development of Nuchido TIME+, a dietary supplement clinically proven to boost NAD+ and reverse biological age. Unlike standard precursors such as NMN or NR, Nuchido TIME+ uses a systems-based approach to target the root causes of NAD+ decline.
