Episode notes

Modern joint pain isn’t just wear and tear—it’s a systemic, metabolic disease that starts years before symptoms show. In this episode, you’ll learn how inflammation, mitochondria dysfunction, and immune imbalance trigger cartilage loss… and how to reverse it using targeted cytokine modulation, cellular regeneration, and smarter supplements for longevity and human performance.

Host Dave Asprey sits down with Kiran Krishnan, a research microbiologist and Chief Scientific Officer at Calroy Health Sciences. He’s the founder of Microbiome Labs—one of the most trusted microbiome-focused brands in functional medicine—and a formulator behind cutting-edge supplements like Arterosil and Vascanox. With over two decades of experience, Kiran has launched multiple health ventures, authored scientific textbook chapters, published clinical trials, and holds global patents in human health. He’s a leading authority on systemic inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and gut-driven disease—and one of the few voices making complex biology accessible for real-world results.

He breaks down their new supplement Cartigenix HP, and how cytokines like IL-6 and TNF-alpha flip your cartilage cells from anabolic repair to catabolic destruction, how mitochondrial decline speeds up joint damage, and why most modern painkillers make your joints worse. You’ll learn how a specialized blend of boswellia and celery seed reprograms inflammation, why walking beats medication in clinical trials, and how fasting, nitric oxide, and gut health work together to optimize joint regeneration.

You’ll learn:

• How cartilage cells (chondrocytes) rely on mitochondria for tissue repair

• Why global cytokines like IL-6 and TNF-alpha drive joint degradation and brain fog

• How cartilage begins to break down in your teens—and what to do about it now

• The surprising clinical data on walking distance, inflammation markers, and recovery

• Why most supplements and NSAIDs fail—and what actually rebuilds joints

• How diet and leaky gut create 5-day inflammation spikes from a single fast-food meal

• The mitochondrial link between joint pain, cardiovascular risk, and depression

• Why perimenopausal women are at 10x higher risk for arthritis—and how to prevent it

• How to track your biological joint age using imaging and systemic inflammation labs

This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, functional medicine, pain-free aging, and human performance. Whether you’re lifting heavy, walking daily, or just trying to stay mobile into old age, this episode gives you the science and tools to reverse joint degeneration and extend your healthspan.

Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living.

New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.
