Today, I’m sitting down with two true pioneers in the health optimization space: microbiologist Kiran Krishnan from Just Thrive, and Forrest Smith, founder of Kineon. In this episode, we bridge two often separate worlds—gut health and photobiomodulation—to explore what happens when you combine spore-based probiotics with red and near-infrared light therapy. You'll hear about the unexpected links between the gut and brain, the pivotal role of leaky gut in everything from neurodegeneration to hormone imbalance, and why Forrest started experimenting with shining red light directly on his abdomen.
Read MoreToday, I’m diving solo into a topic that’s both fascinating and a little bit spooky—senescent cells, also known as “zombie cells.” Understanding zombie cells is a crucial piece of the puzzle if you want to feel younger, stronger, and more resilient as you age. In this episode, I unpack what senescent cells are, why they’re not just harmless bystanders, and how their buildup can accelerate the aging process and drive chronic inflammation—one of the hallmarks of aging. I break down the lifestyle habits that might be quietly increasing your zombie cell load, the early warning signs your body could be giving you, and most importantly, the evidence-backed interventions you can start using right now—from exercise and diet, to cutting-edge supplements, peptides, and more.

What I found truly surprised me: there’s a wealth of research showing just how crucial high-quality olive oil is to the benefits of the Mediterranean lifestyle.
Read MoreToday, I’m joined by Cynthia Thurlow, a remarkable nurse practitioner, podcast host, and true hormone whisperer who is on a mission to help women thrive through perimenopause and beyond. If you’re curious about how hormones shape your healthspan, want to understand what your doctor might be missing when it comes to midlife transitions, or are just ready to feel more empowered in your own body, you’re going to love this conversation. Cynthia and I get honest about the realities of hormonal changes, the critical (but often overlooked) role of gut health and autoimmunity, and why some of the most popular wellness trends—like intense cardio, strict intermittent fasting, and even daily “healthy snacks”—can sometimes do more harm than good.

Read MoreOn today’s episode, I'm doing something a bit different—stepping away from our usual discussions about peptides, supplements, and high-tech health solutions. Instead, I'm focusing on some of the most basic, yet crucial lifestyle habits that could accelerate your aging without you even realizing it. These foundational habits are often overlooked, but they play a significant role in how we age. I'll discuss the importance of prioritizing sleep, managing unchecked stress, finding the right balance with exercise, and nurturing social connections.
