Hack My Age

Today Leslie Kenny is giving valuable insight into ways women over 50 can hack their stress when they just can't meditate. Not everyone can sit still for 30 minutes, some get even more stressed with meditation and yoga and there are plenty of other ways we can calm down, relax and get into our parasympathic rest and digest mode. As a health coach, Leslie has tried it all and gives us her best tips and insights into the many gadgets out there. Leslie Kenny is a biohacker, certified health coach, patient advocate, Harvard & Berkley graduate, sexologist and founder of Oxford Healthspan, a nutraceutical company promoting a healthier, longer life for everyone. Leslie is paving the way in the biohacking space with her knowledge, experience and love of science. I am so fortunate to have her in my life and very grateful she have taken the time to share her knowledge with us today.

It is a true pleasure and honor to host Dr. Satchidananda Panda aka "Satchin Panda" today to talk about circadian rhythms and fasting and how this affects women living with diabetes. But what we discuss is relevant for just about anyone, whether or not you have diabetes. We discuss the topics in his new book The Circadian Diabetes Code. Dr. Panda is a professor at The Salk Institute in California, where his lab researches circadian rhythms. His is at the forefront of research in four major areas that are relevant to healthy aging. And these can be summarized as "nurturing the circadian clock, clocking the drugs and drugging the clock". And this offers a new and really unique approach to preventing, managing and even reversing chronic diseases. Dr. Panda's groundbeaking discoveries which has made him most famous are: 1. His discovery of a blue light sensor in the retina of the eye which has led to human-centric lighting to optimize our sleep, our mood, and even our brain function. 2. He discovered that eating within an 8-12 hour window, called Time-restricted eating or intermittent fasting, can prevent or reverse chronic diseases and increase healthy lifespan. 3. He is also known for circadian genomics studies in primates, which have identified the dosing of the majority of FDA-approved drugs that can be optimized to the right time of the day to reduce the negative effects of the drugs and improve their efficacy. 4. His lab, along with several others, has demonstrated that drugs targeting circadian clock components are a multi-solving approach to treat chronic diseases, including liver disease, cancer, and the dreaded Alzheimer's disease.

This guest teaches us how to turn off our fat switch. 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 releases February 8th, 2022. I was blown away with his first book and 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.

If you're on Instagram and you were born in the 70s you probably already know and need Dr. Amir Karam. He's got over 200,000 followers on Instagram, so I am sure he's popping up somewhere on your feed talking about skincare and plastic surgery. That's where I found him. He's also got an amazing YouTube account and believe it or not, sharing lots of stuff on Tik Tok too. Dr. Karam is one of those rare practicing doctors who actually makes the time to reach out to us on social media. He is a Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon with almost 15 years of experience. Actually, he's double board certified by both the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology – that means head and neck surgery. He has literally devoted his life to mastering facial plastic surgery and perfecting an amazing facial rejuvenation procedure that we talk about in this episode. If you're in the US, you may know Dr. Karam as one of the top surgeons in the country. He established the Carmel Valley Facial Plastic Surgery and Aesthetic Center in San Diego in 2008 where he does advanced techniques in facial rejuvenation and rhinoplasty (that's a nose job). He's different because you know what you're getting. A natural, safe and predictable result. I repeat, natural. He's so transparent and you can literally find everything about him on internet. Today we talk about our aging skin and face, skincare routines and how to make it super simple, but also I delved into finding more out more about his trademark rejuvenation procedure called Vertical Restore. He's done over 6,000 of these procedures, which target our saggy skin and the changes that we see in the shape of our face and neck when we hit our 40s and 50s. He's already published over 20 peer-reviewed research articles, over 25 surgical textbook chapters on facial plastic surgery, and has co-authored his own surgical textbook, Rejuvenation of the Aging Face. So, there is absolutely no doubt at all, that we are speaking to someone extremely qualified to talk about these topics. And as if that's not enough, Dr. Karam founded his own skincare line – KaramMD.

Biohacker Faraz Khan has cracked the code on thinning hair and tells us how to regrow fuller thicker hair. Faraz Khan is a former computer scientist turned longevity educator, speaker and biohacker. He started this journey into longevity and anti-aging when he first saw his parents literally age before his eyes. Who hasn't seen this happen to their parents before? So Faraz went from helping large media, entertainment, pharma and life sciences companies to helping everyday people like you and me beat back some of the unwanted and unnecessary signs and symptoms of aging. He launched his podcast "Anti-Aging Hacks" in 2019, where he interviews the top minds in longevity, anti-aging and health. I originally found Faraz at The Anti-Aging Summit in December 2020 which he organized and hosted some of the top experts in health and longevity. It was super cool and featured some of my favorite doctors. Through all these amazing interviews, his personal research and experience Faraz delved further into why hair starts to thin and has armed himself with science-based tactics to not only grow better hair, but get a whole lot of confidence that goes with it.

Our guest today will help you sleep better. He is passionate about getting a good night's sleep and is going to give us some great tips on how to do this. Janne Kyllonen is from Finland and knows a lot about sleep because he needed it so much while he was traveling across multiple time zones. One day while he was traveling to Beijing after an exhausting flight, he was at the airport and found a very interesting gadget. It was called Active Noise Cancelling headphones. He tried them on and noticed silence all around him in the middle of a massively busy airport. And he came up with an idea…that he could make them even better. So he came up with Quieton. I am so excited to talk about these noise canceling headphones first of all, because no one on the biohacking circuit has really discovered them yet…so remember, you heard it here first. And second of all, because I now no longer have these microawakenings when someone in my bed snores or a church bell rings at 2am. Absolute silence. I can't take all the credit for finding Quieton. It's my biohacking bestie Magdelana of Magdalena's Secrets on Instagram who posted about them. She was telling me what a miracle they were for her. Magdalena has no vested interest and nothing to sell. So I believed her. So now I put them to the test. And to be honest, even though the buds are microscopic I didn't like something in my ears. I go back to Magdalena for some explanations and she said to give it a few days and adjust the size. And she was right. It was perfect timing too because I happened to be in a new place, a new bed and a new city that had a church bell ringing every hour on the hour…and a neighbor who I could hear going up and down the stairs in the middle of the night. When I finally gave it another go, I had a really great nights sleep and just laughed when my husband complained of the church bell and neighbor again. I heard zero! So, enough raving about Quieton, I want to introduce Janne so we can talk about sleep in general, give you some tips and answer some questions about anything anyone puts inside their ears to find some silence.

Meet my personal anti aging doctor. I first learned about Dr. Lauren Bramley through my clients while I was living in Hong Kong in 2014. They all raved about her and loved her cutting edge take on their problems. Some of them had arthritis, others had autoimmune disease. They would show me their protocol and the supplements they were taking and I was impressed. I knew this was not your ordinary doctor. The only complaint they have is that she is so hard to see. She is always halfway between Canada and Hong Kong. She is always attending medical conferences, speaking at them, learning and continuing to educate herself to always bring the latest science to her patients. That's the trade off. So, my Hong Kong clients are always desperately waiting for her return. But now with telemedicine, we have new ways to stay in touch and she's going to share with us today how she is now working around those previous obstacles with a new program she calls The Better With Age Club. Dr Bramley is a Canadian trained and licensed medical doctor with a focus on functional and anti-aging medicine. She has a Master's Degree in Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism. She has a huge toolbox of "toys" to help us actually get down to the root cause of a problem and fix it once and for all. She uses bioidentical hormones, genomics, nutraceuticals, peptides and lifestyle hacks. She is also really well known for her TedxTalk: "Know Your Numbers" where she talked about her philosophy of improving your health by empowering yourself. Knowing your data, interpreting it, understanding it and knowing how to apply it to your unique self. I remember when I first popped into Dr. Bramley's clinic in Central in Hong Kong, I was really blown away. It was the first time I saw an anti-aging clinic, but one solely dedicated to reversing aging…not just a side note or afterthought. It had everything I dreamed of having in medical care. She has an in-house laboratory directly on premise where she can get all her testing done accurately and quickly. It's amazing and it's been there for over 20 years.

Dr. Rachel Carlton Abrams busts myths about sexuality in midlife, because, she literally wrote the book on it…and she's a doctor, so it's all certified. Dr. Rachel studied at the famous Stanford University, graduated with honors, got her doctorate from UC San Francisco and even has a Masters Degree in Holistic Health from UC Berkeley. She is Board Certified in Family Medicine and Integrative Medicine. In 2008 she opened the Santa Cruz Integrative Medicine Clinic where she treats some of the world's most influential people, like big shot CEOs, billionaire entrepreneurs and Nobel Peace laureates. She's been voted as the "Best Doctor" in Santa Cruz County every year since 2009. And it looks like no one is even close to breaking that track record. As a gerontologist I respect that she's super dedicated to creating health equity and anti-racism in health care. Dr. Rachel is also an author. She wrote the books: Bodywise: Discovering Your Body's Intelligence for Lifelong Health and Healing Eight Dates: Essential Conversations for a Lifetime of Love, The Man's Guide to Women (she wrote this one with her husband) The Multi-Orgasmic Woman The Multi-Orgasmic Couple, and the audiobook Taoist Sexual Secrets. Dr. Rachel doesn't stop, because she loves teaching courses and over the last 20 years she also works as a consultant on holistic health for national magazines, radio and television, so you probably have run into her somehow somewhere before. Dr. Rachel is not only a practicing doctor, author, speaker and consultant, she's also been a board member of the AHMA (American Holistic Medical Association) and is now an active board member of the AIHM (Academy of Integrative Health and Medicine), where she works on anti-racism, health equity and inclusive membership.
