#360: How Liz Parrish Is REWRITING the Rules of Aging (Gene Therapy, Telomeres & The Future of Longevity)

Are you struggling with chronic health issues that conventional medicine can't seem to solve? What if “brain retraining” was the answer? This is what I dive into on this episode with special guest, Ashok Gupta.    We discuss the root causes of chronic diseases, the impact of stress on the nervous system, and the importance of regulating the nervous system for overall health and longevity. We also discuss medical studies on the power of the mind and spirit in healing chronic diseases, conventional and holistic approaches to healthcare, and the role of trauma in shaping our responses to stress. Overall, we dive into the technique of brain retraining with the Gupta Program, along with the power of meditation and relaxation techniques.    Founder of the Gupta Program, Ashok Gupta, uses his 25 years of research combined with the latest findings about “neuroplasticity” and brain retraining techniques to reverse conditions that are ultimately caused by abnormalities in brain function.    Thank you to our sponsors for making this episode possible: Neurohacker Collective: Visit http://qualialife.com/nathalie and use code NATHALIE Stemregen: Save 15% on your first order at http://www.stemregen.co/nat, use promo code, NAT15 BiOptimizers: Go now to http://magbreakthrough.com/bionatfree and get your bottle of Magnesium Breakthrough for FREE today!   Find more from Ashok Gupta:  Website: https://guptaprogram.com/  Download the FREE app on the Apple Store or Google Play    Find more from Nathalie: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmholC48MqRC50UffIZOMOQ  Join Nat’s Membership Community: https://www.natniddam.com/bsp-community  Sign up for Nats Newsletter: https://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/i7d5m0  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nathalieniddam/  Website: www.NatNiddam.com    Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/biohackingsuperhumanperformance    What We Discuss:  06:43 The Gupta Method: Brain Retraining for Chronic Illness 27:31 The Role of Trauma in Shaping Our Responses to Stress 36:51 A Holistic Approach to Health and Longevity 39:35 Regulating the Nervous System and Retraining the Brain 43:05 The Power of Meditation and Relaxation Techniques 49:19 The Detrimental Effects of Social Media and News 52:28 The Importance of Self-Care and Self-Love 01:05:36 The Gupta Program: Healing and Improving Well-Being

Are you aging faster than you should be? Our toxic environment and chronic stress are adding to this longevity issue, but there may be a solution to reducing inflammation and slowing down aging. In this episode of The Longevity podcast, I am joined by Dr. Bill Lawrence to discuss bioregulator peptides and their role in slowing down the aging process and enhancing health.    We discuss the primary driver of aging, how peptides can repair and rejuvenate this system,  and the potential of peptide bioregulators in delaying the aging process. We also dive into the significant investments being made in regenerative medicine, the use of peptide bioregulators in treating specific conditions, such as retinal issues, and the positive impact of stress management on longevity.   Dr. Bill Lawrence is an American biogerontologist with a Jurisprudence Degree (UCLA-Law), an MS in Psychology, and a Ph.D. in Nutritional Science. For three decades, his focus has been human longevity research and interventions for optimal life and healthspan.

Did you know, there's a superfood that's been around for billions of years that could transform your health? In this episode of The Longevity Podcast, I am joined by Catharine Arnston, creator of ENERGYbits, to discuss this superfood and its benefits for longevity.  We discuss algae, specifically spirulina and chlorella, as a nutrient-dense food source, how it can fit into many diets, and the fact that it is highly bioavailable and quickly absorbed by the body, providing nourishment and balancing blood sugar levels. We also dive into algae’s benefits for brain health, detoxification, gut microbiome, and the immune system. Overall, we discuss algae's ability to enhance the function of mitochondria, and the importance of choosing high-quality algae products.    Catharine Arnston started ENERGYbits® after her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would help her heal.

Have you ever considered the importance of your feet in maintaining overall health and well-being? In this episode, I chat with Mark Sisson, founder of Peluva Footwear and Primal Kitchen, about the importance of functional movement and the impact of footwear on our health.    Mark shares his experience of how traditional running shoes led to injuries. We discuss the concept of ground feel, toe articulation, and toe splay and how these factors are essential for optimal foot health. Overall, our conversation focuses on the importance of foot health and the negative effects of wearing restrictive shoes.    Mark Sisson, a New York Times bestselling author and former endurance athlete, has been researching ways to achieve optimal health and fitness for almost 40 years. He is the co-founder of Primal Kitchen®. In 2021, driven by his obsession with shoes and foot health, Sisson joined with his son to start Peluva, creating minimalist shoes that encourage walking as the single best form of movement for health.

Walking in minimalist shoes can help strengthen the muscles in the feet and improve foot mobility. Running is not the best form of cardio, and steady-state cardio can be catabolic. Lifting weights is more beneficial for overall health and longevity.
