What is hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and how is it beneficial for us? Our guest today is a leading authority in hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and we’re discussing why this cutting edge treatment has been making waves in both the medical community and the longevity community.Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Dr. Scott Sherr. We dive into the world of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and how using HBOT can be beneficial for skin health and longevity. We also cover the specific protocols that you can implement to start optimizing your skin health and appearance. Dr. Scott Sherr is a Board-Certified Internal Medicine Physician Certified to Practice Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe) and a specialist in Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). He is the founder of Integrative HBOT, a worldwide telemedicine practice where he consults and educates patients and clinics using his novel approach to hyperbaric therapy that includes cutting edge and dynamic HBOT protocols, comprehensive laboratory testing (using the HOMe framework), targeted supplementation, personal practices, synergistic technologies, and more.Dr. Scott is also COO of Troscriptions, a line of precision dosed, pharmaceutical grade, and physician formulated buccal troches that address the many bottlenecks we all experience along the path to optimizing our health.What we discuss:00:04:30: Dr. Scott Sherr’s background with hyperbaric oxygen therapy00:07:11: What happens inside a hyperbaric chamber 00:10:07: What is Henry's law?00:16:15: The hyperbaric protocol 00:21:17: Long term benefits of using hyperbaric oxygen therapy00:30:41: Ways to leverage oxygen circulation after leaving the chamber00:33:59: How hyperbaric therapy can be used for specific skin conditions 00:40:27: Hyperbaric therapy and skin rejuvenation00:47:19: The different neurologic and systemic protocols00:50:34: Is a hyperbaric chamber a long term optimization device?Key Takeaways:Hyperbaric therapy can be used for specific inflammatory skin conditions because of its ability to decrease inflammation in the body. There are also studies that show that hyperbaric therapy can increase collagen production in the skin.The first thing that happens in a hyperbaric chamber is the reversal of low oxygen states, so more oxygen is sent to the tissue. This is why hyperbaric therapy can help save the tissue on someone with an acute injury.When you leave a hyperbaric chamber, you have a period of about 30 minutes where you have more oxygen circulation, and as a result you can leverage that oxygen in various ways. To learn more about Young Goose:Website: https://www.younggoose.com/Instagram: @young_goose_skincareGet 20% off your first purchase by using code PODCAST20 at www.younggoose.comTo learn more about Dr. Scott Sherr:Website: https://onebasehealth.com/Instagram: @onebasehealth, @drscottsherr

Did you know that the time you spend in front of a computer screen or in an office under artificial lights can dramatically age your skin? By understanding blue light and where it comes from, we can also understand how we can avoid it.Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, defines what blue light is, why it can be damaging to the skin, and gives us biohacking strategies to mitigate the effects of blue light.What we discuss:02:40 - Where blue light comes from05:37 - How blue light can cause collagen breakdown 08:59 - How blue light exposure is associated with increased inflammation 10:10 - Strategies to protect your skin from blue light14:06 - Young Goose products that help minimize DNA damage Key Takeaways:Blue light doesn't penetrate very deeply into the skin, but it creates oxidative stress on the top layer of the skin. This can cause inflammation and lead to collagen breakdown. Blue light exists and changes throughout the day, which lets us know what time of day it is and helps us reset our circadian rhythm.Blue light can increase water loss in the skin, so using a moisturizer that can mitigate some of that loss is important.To learn more about Young Goose:Website: https://www.younggoose.com/Instagram: @young_goose_skincareGet 20% off your first purchase by using code PODCAST20 at www.younggoose.com

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Danijela Schenker. We discuss the different therapies for skin rejuvenation such as at-home micro-needling and softwave therapy.She also explains why we should care for our skin sooner, her at-home approach to micro-needling, the downside of collagen overdosing, working on your skin from the inside out, and how to improve your skin barrier. Danijela Schenker is a former ICU nurse for twenty years and nursing instructor, turned beauty biohacker, and health visionary, ten years ago. Optimizing beauty, health, and well-being is her passion.Key Takeaways:Beware of collagen overdose if you’re practicing at-home micro-needling. You need to reconsider the intervals at which you subject your skin to this treatment. Micro-needling uses thin needles to make tiny holes in the top layer of your skin. The damage helps stimulate your skin's healing process, so it produces more collagen and elastin. However, doing this too often without sufficient breaks in between will eventually result in an over-production of collagen that causes the tightening and thickening of your skin. This will cause your skin to stretch, thicken, and harden.Are you working from the inside out - or the outside in? From gut health to cell senescence, there are biological processes in our body that are behind most skin issues. However, since we only see the symptoms of these inside problems on the outside of our bodies, i.e. our skin, the beauty industry is very much focused on the end results and what happens to the skin on a topical level.The studies prove it: you only need to integrate these 2 simple ingredients in your skincare routine to repair your skin barrier - and upkeep it. First, you should use a moisturizer that contains ceramides as it restores the lipid composition of the skin. Ceramides are waxy lipids found in especially high concentrations in the stratum corneum. Another productive way to keep your skin barrier in top shape is to use humectants. They work by drawing water and binding it to the skin barrier. Products that contain hyaluronic acid, like Young Goose’s Adaptogenic HA Firming Boost Serum, keep your skin hydrated. What we discuss:01:16: How does Danijela perceive her clinic?02:00: When did Danijela’s clinic open?04:54: What are the core services Danijela’s clinic offers?07:36: What other protocols are useful for skin rejuvenation?09:25: What is softwave therapy?12:13: Why should we care for our skin sooner?14:02: What is Danijela’s approach to at-home micro-needling?26:35: What is Danijela’s approach toward the longevity of our skin?31:26: What are Danijela’s plans for the future?To learn more about Danijela:Instagram: @forever_beautiful_by_scienceWebsite: https://foreverbeautiful.ch/To learn more about Young Goose:Website: https://www.younggoose.com/Instagram: @young_goose_skincareGet 20% off your first purchase by using code PODCAST20 at www.younggoose.com

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by JDr. Chris Shade. We discuss how mercury toxicity impacts your body and your skin. We also share how one can detoxify their body from this toxin. Christopher Shade, Ph.D., is the founder and CEO of Quicksilver Scientific®. He specializes in the biological, environmental, and analytical chemistry of mercury in all its forms and its interactions with sulfur compounds, particularly glutathione, and its enzyme system.What we discuss:05:51: About Dr. Shade15:21: How does mercury affect the skin?22:24: How does mercury toxicity impact your body?32:03: How can we get glutathione levels up?36:41: Why should someone be interested in the pre-care of molecules?42:57: How to detoxify your body with supplements and topicals?51:35: Where can you learn more about Dr. Shade?Key Takeaways:Humans tend to find two different types of mercury in our bodies. The first is Methylmercury, which is an organic form of mercury. It is the most common form of mercury in fish and is present in some types of fish at concentrations. The second kind is mercury which tends to be found in dental amalgam fillings. They are often used to fill cavities and are known to release a small amount of mercury vapor. Amalgam can also release small amounts of mercury vapor during chewing. Both types of mercury have the potential to impair human health. Glutathione is an antioxidant produced in cells, mainly in the liver. It's comprised largely of three amino acids: glutamine, glycine, and cysteine. Glutathione levels in the body tend to reduce over time due to aging but can also be due to poor nutrition, environmental toxins, and stress. When your body is dealing with a high level of mercury toxicity, these glutathione levels decrease. This causes a domino effect of biological processes to kick off, predominantly telomeres shortening and cell senescence. Mercury toxicity is causing you to age prematurely. When high levels of mercury are found in the body, this causes your body to release oxidative stress, which may stimulate the senescent cell cycle. If you can regenerate the high antioxidant production in the body, you can reverse this process and prevent the further production of senescent cells. You can achieve this by boosting your glutathione levels.  To learn more about Dr. Shade:Website: https://www.drchrisshade.com/ Instagram: @dr.christophershadeTo learn more about Young Goose:Website: https://www.younggoose.com/Instagram: @young_goose_skincareGet 20% off your first purchase by using code PODCAST20 at www.younggoose.com

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined and interviewed by Jodi Duval–which originally aired on the the Revital Health Podcast. The two discuss how you can optimize how your skin behaves by providing it with the right building blocks for your skin to function well and not only appear younger but behave younger.Jodi Duval is the Head Naturopath and owner of Revital Health. She is also the CEO of HomeHope Australia, host of the Revital Health Podcast, and lecturer at Endeavour College.What we discuss:01:10: How did Young Goose start?09:40: What’s the science and difference behind quality skincare products?21:26: Which key ingredients do Young Goose products contain?30:50: What are indications of the skincare working?33:17: What is Amitay’s perspective of peptides?45:10: What is skin trauma?58:03: What are the possible harms of skincare?1:08:14: What can you do to optimize your skin?1:23:34: How can you support your skin’s health from an internal perspective?Key Takeaways:Resveratrol is a naturally-occurring compound present in grapes, some berries, and other fruits and nuts. This plant compound acts as an antioxidant. But what people don’t know is that when applied to the skin, we don’t benefit from the resveratrol itself, but from the defense mechanism of the plant compound. It acts as an antioxidant and thus can protect cells against oxidative damage of free radicals and UV radiation on the skin by reducing the expression of AP-1 and NF-kB factors. It also slows down the process of photoaging the skin. Glycation is a process that is caused by the presence of excess glucose in skin fibers. This excess triggers an internal reaction in which sugar molecules adhere to the collagen and elastin proteins, which normally help keep skin firm and supple. As a direct result of glycation, our skin becomes more rigid which may increase the appearance of concerns such as puffiness, loss of elasticity, wrinkles, and fine lines.Both mineral and chemical sunscreen technically do the job, they aren’t made equally! Mineral sunscreens allow your skin to detoxify itself in a way that chemical sunscreen does NOT. With this process being crucial for your body’s detoxification process, you can’t afford to go the chemical sunscreen route.Skin trauma is the process in which the skin shows the appearance of past emotional traumas. Whether they are from repressed emotions or the expression of many negative emotions over time, these tend to manifest in the skin through different types of fine lines and wrinkles on one’s skin. To learn more about Jodi:Instagram: @ketoconWebsite: https://www.revitalhealth.com.au/ Podcast: To learn more about Young Goose:Website: https://www.younggoose.com/Instagram: @young_goose_skincareGet 20% off your first purchase by using code PODCAST20 at www.younggoose.com
