Hack My Age

Cathleen Toomey speaks my gerontology language. She isn't a gerontologist, but she knows a lot about the aging process and has worked with a lot of older adults. A lot more than me. She understands how our experiences through our lifecourse impact our health and longevity. And today we talk about something you may never have thought could kill you early…loneliness. We also talk about a lot of other things that impact the aging process that we don't normally cover in the biohacking world, but are just as important, if not more. Cathleen Toomey reached out to share her podcast Seniority Authority and when I browsed through the titles and watched her TedX talk "The Secret to Successful Aging", I was convinced we needed to talk. Cathleen is in charge of marketing and sales of the RiverWoods Group communities. This is an independent living community for active people where she has been working for the last fourteen years and where she has engaged with and observed older adults, their issues, concerns and passions. She's learned a lot about aging through these folks. Cathleen is a board Member of Womenade and is a volunteer at the St. Vincent de Paul Food PantryShe's a graduate of Fordham University with a masters in communications.

Dr. Richard Johnson is back for more! Today we talk about unexplained weight gain, the fat switch, uric acid, the truth on agave and so much more. Some of you have already read his first book, "The Fat Switch", which he published in 2012 and now our honored guest Dr. Richard Johnson has another book out called "Nature Wants Us to Be Fat: The Surprising Science Behind Why We Gain Weight and How We Can Prevent--and Reverse--It" which was released last February 2022. I was blown away with his first book and I am really excited to talk with him about his new book, because he has some exciting new information from his research to share with us. Dr. Richard Johnson works at the University of Colorado in Denver as a Professor of Medicine. He's been keeping super busy these last 25 years not only as a professor, but also both a practicing physician AND clinical scientist. He studies…nothing else, but our favorite drug…sugar. He is super well known in the medical circles for his research into obesity and diabetes. He found out exactly HOW sugar causes obesity and how our bodies can actually make fructose from other foods. He also found out that a by-product of fructose metabolism called uric acid plays a huge role in metabolic syndrome. The National Institute of Health has been funding his research since the 80s, so he's been doing this for…quite.. a while. He's a member of the American Society for Clinical Investigation and has published over, get this, 700 papers, lectured in over 45 countries, and is a highly cited scientist. Just Pubmed him. You'll be blown away. So I think we are speaking with someone who is highly highly qualified to talk about this topic.

Today's guest is one of my favorite….and based on your feedback from our first interview on brain health, your favorite too. Dr. Sandy Kaufmann is THE coolest expert on anti-aging and someone who just "gets us" women who are over 50. Because she is one of us. She doesn't accept ageist stereotypes and is carving out her own path to aging. She literally wrote the book on it, called the Kaufmann Protocol – Why We Age and How To Stop it. In that book she gave such an easy to follow, informative and entertaining look at the aging process and then explained the protocol she came up with using molecular agents (a.k.a. supplements) to slow this process down. And now a new book is coming out called The Kaufmann Protocol – Aging Solutions where she covers 28 brand new agents that you probably have never heard of and how to use them in your aging protocol to reverse and slow aging. Dr. Kaufmann started her career in the field of cellular biology. She got her Master's Degree from the University of Connecticut in Tropical Ecology and Plant Physiology. And then she turned to medicine, and got a medical Degree at the University of Maryland. And for the last six years she has been the Chief of Pediatric Anesthesia at the Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital in Florida. Everyone in the biohacking world knows Dr. Kaufmann and outside of this world she's been recognized as "Best in Medicine" by the American Health Council. I first heard about Dr. Kaufmann on the Ben Greenfield Podcast and was so blown away by what I heard… I had to reach out to her. Fortunately, she replied to my email and has been incredibly generous with her time. I love her book, I love her app and use it all as a reference with my clients and community. I just love Dr. Kaufmann and all that she puts out for us.

Learn more about testing our biological age and how we can see how fast or slow we are aging with Ryan Smith. This is kind of important for me, so that I can see how fast I am heading to my death, so I can be sure I do what is necessary to make that journey as slow, painless and enjoyable as possible. Ryan clears a lot of the confusion on all these test kits that are on the market that measure different things in our bodies to tell us how old we truly are…and not just the number of candles on our birthday cake. Ryan is a biochemist and co-founder of a company that helps us figure this all out and his company TruDiagnostic has been circulating in the biohacking community for a while now. He has been on many podcasts before with some of the biggest names in health and wellness and all of my biohacking besties and doctors I know personally have given rave reviews on both his incredible knowledge, experience and product. To give you a little background on him, Ryan decided to open up a pharmacy in the US after he graduated with his biochemistry degree. What I love, is that he focused on peptides, which you all know I am a fan of, and general pharmaceutical drugs. His pharmacy, Tailor Made Compounding, became the fourth fastest growing company in healthcare in the US, which he later left in 2020 to create TruDiagnostic, so he can help people prevent the disease of aging, not just managing them. This is both a lab and a health data company that is doing an amazing job so far at supporting our doctors in the functional medicine space. I am not sure about the other companies out there, but TruDiagnostic is collaborating with over 30 clinical research studies that look at which interventions work best for our health and longevity. They've already tested more than 13,000 patients and have one of the largest health databases in the world. That's pretty amazing what he's done in just 2 years. I am impressed!

We have another great sleep expert on the podcast today! Mollie McGlocklin is going to share some amazing tips on how to optimize our sleep, but more particularly, she is going to cover why in the world are women over 50 waking up in the middle of the night and how to stop it so we can actually experience sleep like we did in our 20s and 30s. We have already heard from sleep researchers and biohackers on the podcast who have given their perspectives on what the research is showing and what works in the biohacking world, but Mollie has taken a real deep and practical dive that these people have not taken. Mollie is such an expert, because she has not only dealt with her own struggles with sleep, but she has created a whole business around it and coached many others with her knowledge and expertise. She is the founder of the Sleep Is A Skill website and programs, but she is also the host of the Sleep is a Skill podcast, which you all have to go and listen to after this episode, if you aren't following her already. Mollie uses technology, accountability and behavioral change to help everyone optimize their sleep. She is trained in behavioral change techniques from the Nonverbal Group, Beyond Tells and has a degree in Psychology from Syracuse. She also has experience with a focus group that examined continuous glucose monitors and Oura ring data on sleep. And today we are going to focus on the issues women in their 50s, 60s and 70s have with their sleep and some of the benefits and risks that come with both ends of the spectrum.

Bob Soulliere and I talk about using our breath to change our mindset, find our lost voice, gain more energy and vitality and find our inner feminine selves. This may sound more like the job of a woman, but it's a guy. It's a guy who has worked with many women and can connect with them using the breath to restore their inner power, take control of their lives, improve their mental health and sports performance and fully experience the beauty in every moment in life. The testimonials we hear from his female clients are overwhelming. Listen to the end! Bob has gone through many training programs to learn his skills. He trained through the Wim Hof Method, the Buteyko Breathing Method, and, like me, the Oxygen Advantage program. He is from Alexandria, Virginia and through his company, Breathe Your Power, he trains calm effective presence through breath, mindset, cold exposure, and other a few other controlled stressors. Yep, he gets you in the cold.
