Everyone wants to slow down the signs of aging, but very few people are going about it the right way. The negative aspects of aging are one of the most ubiquitous challenges to quality of life. However, one thing is for sure: scientists believe that a big part of the reason we experience aging the way we do is because of stressed or worn-out cells called senescent cells. Senolytics is a term used to describe ingredients shown to help decrease these damaging senescent cells. My guest on this show...

Five years ago and then a second time six months ago, I traveled to Park City, Utah, where I underwent the most advanced, comprehensive biohacking procedures for longevity that, to my knowledge at least, currently exists. I literally had almost every joint in my body injected with stem cells, from toe to head, and then several organs, too, including my skin and genitals. Don't laugh ... No surprises here: the effects were pretty profound for me, including notably faster workout recovery (as in, ...

Your body doesn't know what it doesn't know. What I mean by that is that if you introduce a foreign substance, your body's immune system will mount a response – and often, that response can have negative health consequences. From steroids to even everyday legal compounds, these unrecognizable elements may lead to severe autoimmune disease, gut problems, and cancer. Certain supplements and chemicals can also make you age faster because they interfere with your natural biological processes, tempor...
