Join us as we explore the cultural obsession with aging and the pursuit of a "fountain of youth." This discussion dives into various approaches to longevity, including exercise, diet, and supplements, highlighting how these contribute to healthy aging. We also touch upon cellular renewal and the natural effects related to extending healthspan, offering insights for those interested in how to live longer. 🎶
Are you obsessed with aging? Discover how to accelerate or decelerate your aging process by focusing on cellular health and DNA integrity. Learn simple strategies to maintain your 'life force' and live fully.

Right. on the subject though and this is a related to biohacking you know in a big way is uh as a culture we are obsessed with aging as if we we believe there is a fountain of youth and i've had people on with a multitude of different uh just exercise and diet or uh whatever kind of uh vitamins or supplements or different kind of modalities to slow down aging.
[42:14-42:36]
Do you think the aging process can really be slowed down or just some people just live a better life because they develop a mindset that I'm not going to let the natural effects of what aging is slow me down. I'm still going to exercise. I'm still going to eat right. I'm still going to go out and enjoy my life to the fullest, even though I'm getting older.
[42:36-42:54]
Yeah. Yeah. I think it's extremely important that people catch up to the conversation and you absolutely can accelerate and decelerate your aging process. It's very simple. And then you can, here's the simple, we first just think of it on the cell, right? I like to break up aging to 2 ideas.
[42:54-43:29]
One is how long will the cell last and how good is the cell doing? So what's going on at the cellular level? And then think, okay, if the cell can last a hundred years, can my physiology last? so my blood you know my my blood function my heart function my lung function you know i could have phenomenal cellular health like an athlete but i could die of a stroke because i was an athlete and i didn't detrain or i didn't properly do what i needed to do as i aged so athletes actually have quite especially high level athletes you know what was the the recent soccer soccer player um from argentina um I'm forgetting his name.
[43:29-43:52]
He recently had an aneurysm. There's just another example in the spotlight of how on the cellular level, they adapted phenomenally, but on the physiological level, it didn't do so well. So on the cellular level, very simple. If I damage your DNA, so if I irradiate your DNA, you're dead in about a day or 2. So I can take a cell in a dish, I can irradiate the DNA, and it's still alive.
[43:52-44:09]
And I can put a drop of glucose, it'll swim to the glucose. I can put a drop of bacterial antigen, it'll swim away from the bacterial antigen. But in about a day or 2 when it needs to regenerate its proteins, when it needs to regenerate the machinery of life, it can't. And so you die.
[44:09-44:41]
And so anything you do in life that damages your DNA, it accelerates the aging process. does that make sense yeah it does so it's that simple so if you if we think like is it possible to slow down aging or is it possible to accelerate it we know right away from very bit you don't have to go too far into you know right away that if anything damages your DNA that's the call it the biggest hit the most, hey, I need to avoid this at all costs because it'll kill me faster. I'll siphon through my honey jar of life force faster.
