Podcast Episode #44: The Truth About Salmon – & BONUS Coverage on Thermogenics, L-Theanine, Water Jogging, Knee Pain and Much More!

During my discussion with Ariel Garten today, we'll dive deep into the world of meditation, dissecting how it can bring serenity to an active mind, and exploring its tangible effects on your overall wellbeing. Ariel will help me unravel the mysteries of how Muse works, turning the complex science of brain activity into a device you can hold in your hand. Lastly, we'll venture into the synergy of meditation with supplements, smart drugs, nootropics, and adaptogens—exploring the exciting possibilities of enhancing mental performance. Muse is a "brain-sensing" headband that uses real-time biofeedback to help you refocus during the day and recover overnight. It doesn't merely soothe with nature sounds; it redefines mindfulness by responding to changes in your brain and body activity in real-time. At the heart of this revolutionary device is an app that provides in-depth insights into your progress, offering tangible evidence of your journey toward mental mastery. So how does Muse work? Here's the basic rundown: Muse connects to your mobile device via Bluetooth. Once connected, you simply start up the Muse Meditation app, put on your headphones, and close your eyes. Once your session is complete, you can review your results and track your progress.

On a recent trip to the beach, I dove into the ocean depths with Andrés Preschel, a Miami-based fitness wizard and friend of mine who's just as nuts about exercise physiology as I am. Andrés and I chatted about everything from freediving to spearfishing, from breathwork to staying healthy while on the road. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. Andrés' story is a testament to perseverance. New York-born but Venezuela-raised, Andrés navigated life with ADD from an early age, all the while dealing with health issues like body dysmorphia, anxiety, insomnia, and more. Yet, in true warrior fashion, he decided to take charge of his own health before his hardest year in high school, stepping off medication and taking on a health-focused journey. Blending a passion for sports with a scientific brain, Andrés dove into the study of human nutrition and physiology, overcoming his personal battles and even acing academic exams in the process. Fast forward, and he's built up quite the résumé: a degree from the University of Miami, numerous academic accolades, and a muscular physique to boot. Currently, as the founder of Know Your Physio and a founding member at Drym Health, Andrés is on a mission to offer lifestyle solutions to the most ambitious people out there, creating data-driven programs for better performance, longer lifespan, ideal body composition, and so much more. When he's not geeking out on health and fitness, you can find him spearfishing, cycling, cooking, or chilling with his loved ones.

You may have picked up on this if you're a regular listener, but there's this molecule that I've been pretty jazzed about over the past year: Urolithin A. It's found in tons of the best superfoods, like pomegranates, walnuts, and raspberries, and it's emerging as a serious player in the longevity and age-reversal space, sitting alongside stalwarts like NAD, C60, Astaxanthin, Spermidine, Fish Oil, peptides, stem cells. Yet, I've realized that I haven't dug into the nitty-gritty about Urolithin A. Its sources, bioavailability, and dosing carry some nuances that I haven't fully explored on the podcast.  So, I'm bringing in a heavy hitter: Dr. Anurag Singh. He serves as the Chief Medical Officer at Timeline Nutrition, where they develop nutritional and skincare products that focus on enhancing mitochondrial and cellular health. Their star player? A Urolithin A supplement known as Mitopure. Dr. Singh boasts an impressive background, with an M.D. in internal medicine and a Ph.D. in immunology. His resume includes time at both consumer health giants, like Nestlé, and nimble startups, such as Amazentis/Timeline. This man is no stranger to science. With more than 40 articles published in top-tier journals, 15 patents to his name, and over 50 randomized clinical trials under his belt, he brings an extensive understanding of Urolithin A to the table. His research over the past decade has led to the launch of several consumer products. At Timeline, you have him to thank for what they call the "first and only purified Urolithin A supplement backed by 15 years of clinical research with human trials and consistent consumer use."

Are you intrigued by the power of stem cells and regenerative medicine but left with questions every time you try to learn more? Questions like:  What's better: your own stem cells or a different source? Is it true stem cells "don't work" without some kind of scaffolding to "grow on"? Do you need to combine stem cells with exosomes? Are tissue engineering and gene editing as dangerous as they sound? Can stem cells be combined with peptides and hormones, and if so, how? In this enlightening conversation with Dr. Adeel Khan, you'll have the opportunity to hear the answers to all those questions and many more (that you may not even know you had!). Dr. Adeel Khan is an internationally recognized expert in regenerative medicine, having treated numerous high-profile celebrities and athletes. After earning his MD from the University of Ottawa in Canada, he specialized in sports medicine and led one of the first Health Canada-approved clinical trials with mesenchymal stromal cells. Adeel is now the Chief Scientific Officer of Science & Humans and the co-founder of xALT. In the discussion with Adeel, you'll discover the science of enhancing stem cell function, the difference between stem cells and progenitor cells, the future of gene editing and its interaction with cell therapy and tissue engineering, and even get a sneak peek into Dr. Khan's unique daily routine for optimal health.

Welcome to today's episode, where we plunge into the cutting-edge world of precision health testing with Genova Diagnostics. Join me as I share my personal experience and results from the Metabolomix+ and GI Effects tests, both renowned for their insights far surpassing those of conventional blood tests. They are also tests I require of each of my VIP coaching clients. The Metabolomix+ is an all-inclusive nutritional test offering analysis of critical nutritional biomarkers. This test uses a simple first-morning void (FMV) urine collection and provides an optional add-on bloodspot finger stick and buccal swab for assessment. It effectively identifies your functional need for antioxidants, B vitamins, minerals, digestive support, fatty acids, and amino acids, enabling incredibly targeted nutritional therapies. Next up is the GI Effects test. This is your go-to for a complete assessment of gut health. It's designed to uncover the root cause of most GI complaints using a combination of PCR, culture, and microscopic testing methods. The test ensures the identification of all relevant organisms, from yeast and parasites to markers of gut inflammation and bacterial imbalances. Both these tests are the creation of Genova Diagnostics, a leading clinical laboratory renowned for its work in diagnosing, treating, and preventing complex chronic diseases. They offer specialized testing services in gut health, nutritional status, immune function, hormonal health, and specialty testing. Most recently, they've launched Genova Connect aimed at athletes, high performers, and fitness enthusiasts. Joining me for this enlightening conversation are three esteemed members of the Genova team: Meet Jeffrey Ledford, Patricia Devers, and Michael Chapman, who bring a wealth of experience and innovation to the table.

I was first introduced to Matt by former podcast guest Dr. De at a dinner he'd invited me to after the podcast, and his wealth of knowledge about experimental health protocols, stem cell therapies, and the future of supplement and dietary advancements left an indelible impression. Matthew Morgan is not your typical health enthusiast.

With a wide-ranging portfolio of investments, Matthew is actively engaged in pushing the boundaries of health and wellness, longevity, and even the rapidly evolving Metaverse. He's continuously tinkering with his health regimes, experimenting with a myriad of treatments, diets, and supplements, and always keeping his sights firmly fixed on the future.

This wisdom has been hard-earned and deeply tested. Let their results be your map.  Their innovative and heartfelt approach to parenting landed them a feature in my book, Boundless Parenting, which is also available now in audiobook form, where you can listen to Dr. Isaac & Erica narrate their section of the book. And this is the greater topic of today's podcast: Family and everything that comes with it. We discuss topics ranging from parenting styles to love languages and even go into how I almost got a divorce and what Jessa and I did to weather our marriage problems (as well as Isaac and Erica's tactics for mitigating marital turmoil).
