When it comes to longevity and aging well, we now know that a key component of both is the health of our cells. Each one of us has over 37 trillion cells in our body and we rely on these building blocks to effectively carry out their functions and to keep renewing themselves as we age. One of the issues we face as we are aging is that our cells fail to replicate correctly which can cause disease. This is also why aging is the issue at the core of many of the big diseases we see with old age. My ...

It is the most fundamental question of humanity: are we alone? Are we the only intelligent life in the Universe?

My guest today is no stranger to controversy and not afraid to ask the question and to give his answer. Professor Avi Loeb is a Harvard astrophysicist and arguably one...

Many of us tend to think of an addict as someone who compulsively abuses things like alcohol, drugs or sex. But today most of us have an imbalanced attachment to something or the other and are caught up in an endless pursuit of pleasure and dopamine hits.

We are beings of Light. And I’m not talking metaphysically here, but biophysically. Our human body emits and communicates with biophotons. These are electromagnetic waves of light. And they are fundamental for our vital functions. We can not see biophotons with the naked eye, but they can be measured with special tools. The lack of natural sun light and the overexposure to junk light, the artificial light that has become so ubiquitous in our lives, can have devastating effects on our health. My ...

I thought I knew everything there was to know about essential oils. They've been an important part of my life ever since I lived in new Delhi, India when I was four years old.

Today I use essential oils all throughout the day, whether it's to enhance my mood by diffusing them into the air. Or whether it's for beauty, by applying them to my skin, such...

We spend about one third of our life doing it or attempting to do it. I'm talking about sleeping. Sleep is one of the most important pillars of health, longevity, and peak performance.
