The Boring Secret Behind Celebrities Who Don’t Age : 1364

IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™... … you’ll get tips about how to lead a brain healthy lifestyle and how to keep perspective along your own entrepreneurial journey. Activism, acting and entrepreneurship are wired into Patrick Schwarzenegger’s DNA. He thoughtfully balances each passion through his work as an Alzheimer’s advocate, actor, investor and food founder. Patrick’s known for his trend-spotting abilities in the better-for-you food and beverage industry. He got into the fast-casual Blaze Pizza franchise when he was just a teen. That experience solidified his interest in health and wellness: “invest solely into entrepreneurs and companies that were providing Americans with the healthier alternative." He’s now an active investor and advisor to numerous brands and helps founders scale their emerging businesses to the next level.His latest venture encourages brain health at every age and supports programs, research, and lifestyle choices designed to make your brain work better. Patrick co-founded a new brain health food brand called “MOSH” with his mom, Maria Shriver, designed specifically to up-level your brain function.“We really want it to be a brand that was created out of a mission and out of the why, and not so much the what,” Patrick says. … “We want to be a brain health company and also educate consumers and raise money and donate that to the Women's Alzheimer's Movement. So, it's been an amazing journey.”A journey with its share of mishaps, too: “We had so many things that went wrong and that was kind of the fun part was learning about that and finding ways to fix it. That's wanting to be an entrepreneur or that's embarking on that journey, you're going to have speed bumps. You can do as much homework as you can and want and try to perfect everything before you launch, but things come out of left field every single day.”He’s on the show to discuss entrepreneurship, how to invest, how to build brands, how to hire the right people and what’s possible for high-functioning brains at every age.WE APPRECIATE OUR PARTNERS.

IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™...… you’ll learn how your cells, mitochondria, immune system, sleep patterns, inflammation, nerve growth pattern, and energy levels all benefit from mushrooms. These fungi are full of compounds and nutrients that your body will love. There’s a whole lot of science behind this now.In this special podcast edition, you’ll hear how two mushroom experts are studying and harnessing the amazing powers of mushrooms for the deepest parts of human biology and the natural environment. Paul Stamets, is a speaker, author, mycologist, medical researcher and entrepreneur. He’s considered an intellectual and industry leader in habitat, medicinal use and production of fungi, and he considers himself a “mycological warrior.” He’s spent over four decades in the Pacific Northwest studying and researching the world of mushrooms. Listening to him describe, decode and illuminate the workings of the mushroom world is an enthralling experience, indeed. He says we’re intertwined with mushrooms at a cellular level. He believes that habitats have immune systems—just like people—and mushrooms are cellular bridges between the two. Our close evolutionary relationship to fungi can be the basis for novel pairings in the microbiome that lead to greater sustainability and immune enhancement. And from neurogenesis to our microbiome to our mitochondria, fungi are linked to us. He’s also making some amazing discoveries having to do with bears, bees, butterflies and biodefense.Mycelium Just Might Save the Bees, And Us – Paul Stamets – #624 Learn more at fungi.com Julian Mitchell, —co-founder and CEO of the Australian-based company Life Cykel—and his team work with mushrooms as innovative food sources and medicinals in Australia. “Mushrooms and mushroom-based foods are going to play a huge role in the future of food,” Julian explains. “They grow quickly requiring very little resources in terms of water, power, and land. They have an amazing nutritional profile, and of course, they are 100% natural.” … “Mushrooms are almost an uncharted continent, with infinite applications not just in food but in biotechnology.”For day-to-day use, you’ll want to go with cooked, not raw, mushrooms. For those of you who aren’t fans of eating mushrooms, there’s an option for you, too: “Having it as a tincture makes it very easy to add to a coffee, add to a tea, add to a smoothie,” Julian says. “It’s quite tasteless and at the same time micro-dosing it in small amounts straight into your mouth is a great way to have it as well and absorb it straight into your blood system.” Mushrooms Are Your New Anti-Aging Strategy – Life Cykel #603Learn more at lifecykel.comWE APPRECIATE OUR PARTNERS.

SPECIAL OFFER FOR LISTENERS OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE: Go to https://www.oneskin.co and use code DAVE15 to get 15% off your first-time purchase.IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™...…you’re listening to a new Upgrade Spotlight series based on what you told me you wanted to hear on this podcast. On one Friday each month, these shorter episodes will feature guests who’ll get right into useful information in a Q&A style. You’ll find out how to improve your energy and upgrade your performance. You’ll also get the latest knowledge about powerful tools and technologies that allow you to change your biology and the environment around you. Introducing OneSkin! During this Upgrade Spotlight, you’ll learn about new products designed to target skin aging at the molecular level and promote skin and body health. You’ll also find out the science behind OneSkin’s formulas and why they are considered “daily topical supplements.” They can help you maintain functional and resilient skin as you age. OneSkin topical supplements are powered by a proprietary peptide: OS-01, which decreases the accumulation of aged/senescent (zombie) cells in the skin. By targeting the major driver of skin aging, OS-01 has been scientifically proven to:• Repair cellular damage, including UV damage• Increase epidermal thickness• Improve barrier function• Increase the activity of genes associated with collagen, hyaluronic acid, and elastin production• Reverse the biological age of skin“So this peptide has a very interesting profile because it's small enough to penetrate and it's super safe,” explains Carolina Reis Oliveira, Ph.D., scientist, CEO and co-founder of OneSkin. “There is no toxicity, no irritation. We've done all the recommended studies by FDA for personal care products, and, has this beautiful effect of reducing the accumulation of senescent cells, and also reduces the release of inflammatory markers, and increase the production of hyaluronic acid, elastin and collagen. So, in the end, there's a molecule that has all these attributes that's very important for healthy skin, overall.”Another exciting part of this peptide work includes MolClock, the first skin-specific molecular clock, capable of reliably and accurately determining the biological age of skin. This was created by OneSkin’s team of female PhD-level longevity scientists as part of its research and development platform.Carolina relocated from Latin America to Silicon Valley in 2016 to co-found OneSkin and lead the development of the company’s disruptive skin rejuvenation technologies. She holds a Ph.D. in Immunology, along with degrees in biochemistry, stem cell biology and tissue engineering. Her team of co-founders includes three other female scientists with additional expertise in skin regeneration, bioinformatics, genomics, immunology and molecular biology. Among them, they’ve invented numerous patents and have published nearly 100 peer-reviewed papers in scientific journals.This episode explores exciting new information about improving skin health at the molecular level for the long-term. When you do that, your body will be more equipped to defend itself from environmental stressors and aggressors, especially with age.

As CEO and co-founder of Pendulum Therapeutics, she works to turn scientific discoveries into real products that hack and heal your microbiome and its associated body systems. At Pendulum, her team identifies and isolates new bacterial strains then combines those new strains to create unique probiotics.“We really worked hard on ways to modulate post-postprandial glucose spikes through the microbiome,” Colleen says. The result? Pendulum’s Glucose Control lowers blood glucose spikes by 33 to 34% for people with type 2 diabetes. “What we didn't realize was how many people who don't have type 2 diabetes were going to end up benefiting from it.”This conversation homes in on sugar management and a broad range of research that’s exploring what you can do about managing your glucose to keep up your mental acuity (less brain fog, sharper thinking) and live a longer life. Science has discovered that as you age:You have reduced ability to metabolize sugar. Your microbiomes become less diverse and depleted of certain key strains that are important for sugar metabolism.If you improve glucose control, you see reduced neuronal inflammation and improved cognition.In the past decade, especially, sugar dominates a lot of the conversation around diet and health. It’s been studied, substituted, moderated, restricted and demonized. With that type of focus, you lose the bigger point. “You can't completely cut out sugar,” Colleen says. “You do need sugar. Not all sugar is bad for you all the time. Every cell in your body, except for your colon cells, need glucose in order to survive, in order to replicate, in order to perform functions. All of the things that allow you to be a human being require some amount of sugar."She wants you to know what’s happening to cause the change in metabolic processing as you age and what you can do about it, like:How to understand your blood glucose range and what fluctuations mean.How to track your blood glucose and what to do about peaks and dips.How to improve your focus, sharpness and mental endurance through diet and fitness.“I'm a scientist, so I'm always going to say more data is better,” Colleen explains. “[Especially] when you're trying to make improvements and you're making these micro-adjustments in your life, and you want to understand what impact are they having.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You may already be doing some things, but this topic will help you fine-tune your approach in simple, yet powerful, ways.High performers typically know the value of coaches: experts who can train them and guide them toward goals. But what if you could become your own coach? Podcast guest Jason Goldsmith emphasizes the value of combining the mental and physical aspects of human performance. He knows, too, that it’s important to learn to coach yourself to achieve any kind of life success you go after. Self-coaching doesn't mean you do it all on your own, it means that you take charge of yourself, for yourself.This episode brings these concepts together so you can be in charge of yourself and be confident and purposeful when making decisions. A globally recognized performance coach and founder of Goldsmith Performance, Jason’s best known for his work with golfers, from junior, to amateur to professional skill levels. He also coaches athletes from other major sports, as well as Fortune 500 executives.He’s distilled his knowledge and partnered with David Novak, cofounder & former CEO and Chairman of Yum! Brands (owner of 45,000+ restaurants) to present sports and business coaching for high performance. They’ve created a practical guidebook for you to learn how to be your own best coach: “Take Charge Of You: How Self Coaching Can Transform Your Life and Career.”This conversation covers strategies to develop an understanding of who you are and what drives you. “That is a crucial part of choosing your SBT (single biggest thing): it should feel big, important, impactful, even aspirational,” Jason says in his book. “There is a difference between setting a goal and choosing a destination.”You can outline a process with that knowledge that sets you up for success. And then add in something you may not have considered: “Joy is a critical ingredient, and I don't think enough people have enough joy in their day-to-day life,” Jason says. “It’s really important for people to know what it is that brings them joy and what are the things that diminish their joy. So, if I was able to biohack my day, what are the things I do every single day that make me feel the best possible version of myself? But then what are the things that get in the way of that joy? And then how do I eliminate those joy blockers and have more of those joy builders?”You’ll find out how in this episode! “Take Charge of You” includes do-it-yourself lessons, stories, tips, and questions to ask yourself to track your personal growth and professional development. You can follow this blueprint for self-coaching, no matter what your goals may be.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Scientific discoveries show chronological aging may be written in the epigenome, those chemical tags attached to your DNA that control the way DNA operates.We’re finding out more about both types of aging because of scientists like Morgan Levine, Ph.D., a leading voice in the field of aging and longevity science. She focuses her research on the science of biological aging, emphasizing health span over lifespan. “If you take the difference between someone’s biological age and chronological age, it should predict the things we care about, the actual things we're trying to prevent—so death, disease,” she says. She’s an assistant professor of pathology and the Director of the Laboratory for Aging in Living Systems at Yale University School of Medicine. Her team looks at using bioinformatics to quantify the aging process and test how lifestyle and pharmaceuticals alter the rate of aging. She’s also a founding Principal Investigator at Altos Labs, a biotech company that focuses on cellular rejuvenation programming to restore cell health and resilience.Today, she’s going to talk about the science of aging and longevity explored in her new book, “True Age: “Cutting-Edge Research to Help Turn Back the Clock.” Three main drivers—health behaviors, recent stressors and adversity, and genetics—determine your biological aging. She shares how to measure your own biological age and why you should track your aging regularly. This conversation gets into topics and makes them make sense for your own aging, like:Epigenetics & epigenetic clocksDNA methylation & telomeresCell lifespan Ageotypes (molecular assessment of aging)Phenotypic ageThe “Ceiling” effectThe “CALERIE” trialNutrition & aging (plants, fasting, ketosis)Fitness & aging (energy & brain health)Rest & relaxation (sleep & biological programming)Morgan gives great takeaways on how you can make lifestyle changes to maintain your youthfulness—both inside and out—with low-risk, data-driven biohacking.
