My guest this week is Freddie Kimmel. In this episode, Freddie and I discuss the body's self correcting ability to heal, how the body functions through various vibrational frequencies, and many complementary tools to accelerate healing, including red light, BAMF, AmpCoil and others. Many of us in the biohacking world tend to be chronic over fixers–We want to buy all the latest products and peptides in hopes of magical fixes and achieving the ultimate optimization. Freddie's message is refreshing–he has a balanced and beautiful view on healing after going through his own hero's journey that he shares with us. He reminds us that even though we have so many tools at our disposal, and yes he chose to supplement expensive gadgets along the way, that much of healing and health is internal work, and for most, the biggest needle mover in healing is often free. Along with addressing lifestyle and diet, he shares tips and mindset shifts on how we can be better in control of our health and bodies; almost everything is within our control if we can get our mind on board!

My guest this week is Eileen Durfee of Creatrix Solutions. In this episode, Eileen and I discuss all the questions you could possibly have about the healing powers of ozone. Are you looking to reduce your toxic load? Have chronic Candida or chronic infection? Are you worried about getting sick from contaminated foods? What about wanting more energy? Ozone has gotten a bad rap over the years because it's misused and misunderstood. Simply put, ozone is made up of 3 oxygen atoms (O3) and has a myriad of beneficial uses for humans and the planet. Not only does it have the ability to selectively kill harmful microbes in the bloodstream and boost the body's immune system, but is also used safely in most industries and can even be used in home gardening and "healthy" sanitization (aka no superbugs here)! In this episode, we cover it all, plus myths, the science of why ozone works, usage and safety tips. And for a limited time, my listeners will receive a discount off any of Creatrix Solutions' fabulous ozone products using code OZONE15 through September 30, 2022.

My guest this week is Dr. Nathan S. Bryan. In this episode, Dr. Bryan and I discuss nitric oxide and nitric oxide supplementation, including the new lozenges and topical line. Dr. Bryan is not only part of the brains behind Berkley Life (we all LOVE!), but also NO2U. As an expert studying NO for so long, he is a go-to resource for any questions. We start out explaining the foundations: What is nitric oxide, what are the functions in the body, why do we need optimal levels and why are nitric oxide levels so low in humans. Then we move into how diet and lifestyle affect nitric oxide levels, and of course, how to increase nitric oxide levels naturally. If you want to stack on nutraceuticals, he answers how much you should take, when to take it, and in what forms. And that's just the surface of what we covered! Dr. Bryan shares about their fascinating research in long-haulers, prevention, clinical trials, post-surgery recovery, and upcoming pharmaceutical approvals. And stay to the end when we talk about skin repair and bringing on the youthful glow in a new cosmetic category they have brought to the market.

My guest this week is Chris Mirabile Co-Founder and CEO of NOVOS In this episode, Chris and I discuss how to get younger as you get older. (Yes it's possible, and we talk about how to measure this with epigenetic testing options!) Do you want to slow aging? Do you want to look younger?, or, Do you just want to optimize your longevity so your healthspan equals your lifespan? I know it can be extremely overwhelming trying to figure out what is actually worth spending money on with all the misinformation and crowded space of false-hope products, so that's why I invited Chris from Novos to share about his company and research. They take a results oriented approach to biohacking so their customers can experience life more fully. Who doesn't want that?! NOVOS' focus is on longevity, which leads us into some great conversations about each of the nine (or ten) "hallmarks of aging", fasting, supplements, mitochondrial health, what diet is right for you, genetic age testing, and so much more!
