S6 E7 How Inflammation Affects Aging With David Watumull & Allison Rosenwinkel

When it comes to the topic of aging it seems everyone is buzzing about inflammation these days. But what is inflammation really, and why does it wreak so much havoc? Chronic inflammation (even mild) is generally considered to be a biomarker of accelerated biological aging and increases our susceptibility to diseases. So how do we know we have inflammation (because it's hard to tell) and what can we do to stop it in our own bodies? Since we are living longer, we want to live those extra years with vitality. David M. Watumull is the co-founder and CEO of AX3 which targets inflammaging (a core hallmark of aging) with bio-pure astaxanthin which is a safe and powerful, naturally occurring anti-inflammatory. Allison Rosenwinkel is the co-founder of HiFi Brands which is a branding and marketing agency. She not only works with AX3 but is also passionate about their product since it has really helped her with her own chronic inflammation. Join Lauren, David and Allison as they discuss: what exactly inflammation is and how it impacts how we age; what astaxanthin is and how it works to combat chronic inflammation and aging from the inside out; why more people aren't taking it; the specific benefits of astaxanthin for women in midlife who are experiencing changes in their skin; joints and overall health; why women particularly should be taking astaxanthin and how it aligns with embracing natural aging;; and what changes can one expect when taking astaxanthin.
