A podcast about health, science, nutrition, aging, and fitness.
Consuming one cup of blueberries daily measurably improves vascular function and supports long-term cognitive health. These berries enhance flow-mediated dilation, allowing arteries to dilate more effectively in response to metabolic demand, which correlates with reduced cardiovascular disease risk. Beyond vascular hea...
Well-being is not a fixed disposition but a set of trainable skills that can be integrated into daily life without requiring additional time. Neuroplasticity, the brain's capacity to adapt, is neutral; therefore, intentionally pairing physical exercise with mental training—termed "contemplative aerobics"—ensures that n...
Artificial intelligence is poised to fundamentally accelerate biological discovery and longevity research, potentially enabling humanity to reach "longevity escape velocity" within the next decade. By integrating high-dimensional datasets—including genomics, proteomics, and real-time biometric monitoring—scientists can...
Biological aging is a quantifiable molecular process rather than a fixed chronological progression, primarily measured through epigenetic clocks that track DNA methylation patterns. Dr. Steve Horvath, a pioneer in longevity science, explains that these clocks function as integrators of various stressors, with specific ...
Pain is not synonymous with injury but serves as a request for change, acting as a "check engine light" for the body. Maintaining physical resilience requires a systems-based approach that prioritizes movement variety, tissue readiness, and consistent range-of-motion maintenance over rigid, specialized training. Dr. Ke...
The podcast explores the science of happiness, dissecting it into three macronutrients: enjoyment, satisfaction, and meaning. It distinguishes between pleasure and enjoyment, highlighting the importance of social connection and memory in transforming fleeting pleasures into lasting enjoyment. Struggle is presented as e...
The podcast explores the critical role of NAD, a molecule essential for cellular energy, DNA repair, and gene regulation, with Dr. Charles Brenner, a biochemist renowned for discovering nicotinamide riboside (NR), a potent NAD precursor. The discussion addresses how conditions like obesity, inflammation, and sleep depr...
This episode of the FoundMyFitness podcast features a discussion between the host and endurance athlete Brady Holmer, focusing on a new study challenging the conventional "one minute of vigorous exercise equals two minutes of moderate exercise" guideline. They dissect the study's methodology, which used wearable accele...
This podcast episode features an interview with Dr. Michael Grandner, a sleep expert, who discusses various aspects of sleep health and optimization. The conversation covers differentiating clinical insomnia from common sleep disruptions, the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), and practical ...
This podcast episode features a deep dive into testosterone with Derek from More Plates More Dates, covering its roles in men's and women's health, accurate measurement and interpretation of hormone levels, symptoms and causes of low testosterone, lifestyle factors affecting testosterone, evidence-based strategies to b...
Rhonda Patrick introduces an exclusive sneak peek of her live Ask Me Anything (AMA) session, usually reserved for premium members, highlighting its valuable insights. She covers topics ranging from her experience with exogenous ketones for cognitive enhancement, her coffee routine including preferred beans and brewing ...
In this interview podcast, the host and Dr. Ben Bikman discuss insulin resistance as a key contributor to chronic diseases, often developing silently for years. Dr. Bikman explains how insulin resistance remains hidden until advanced stages due to the glucocentric paradigm in modern clinical care, and he suggests early...
In this monologue podcast, Dr. Rhonda Patrick delves into the science-backed benefits of coffee consumption, emphasizing its potential to slow biological aging, reduce cardiovascular risk, and enhance cognitive function. She discusses how coffee impacts epigenetic age, DNA integrity, and cellular health, highlighting t...
In this monologue podcast, Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses a new study indicating that vitamin D supplementation is associated with a 40% lower risk of dementia over a decade. She explains that vitamin D, which the body produces from sun exposure, converts into a steroid hormone that regulates numerous genes. Deficiency i...
This episode explores the science of nutrition, supplementation, training, and recovery for peak athletic performance and longevity, featuring an interview with Dr. Andy Galpin. Against the backdrop of the ongoing debate about optimal diets for both performance and longevity, Dr. Galpin emphasizes the significant over...
This episode explores the multifaceted benefits of creatine supplementation, moving beyond its common association with strength and power gains. Against the backdrop of Dr. Darren Candow's extensive research (over 140 peer-reviewed papers), the discussion reveals creatine's potential roles in cognitive function (espe...
This podcast interviews Dr. Kerry Courneya, an expert in exercise oncology, about the significant role of exercise in cancer prevention and treatment. The discussion covers cancer prevention strategies, emphasizing the importance of exercise alongside smoking cessation and weight management; it highlights how exercis...
This podcast episode discusses a training guide created by the host and guest, focusing on evidence-based exercise protocols for various fitness goals, including improving cardiorespiratory fitness, delaying heart aging, and optimizing metabolism. The discussion covers aerobic training zones (with emphasis on the talk...
In this podcast episode, the focus is on the vital role of protein, extending far beyond just building muscle. It questions the standard recommendation of 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, suggesting that higher amounts—between 1.2 and 1.6 grams per kilogram—are better for overall health, especially for...
In this podcast episode, we dive into how exercise, circadian rhythms, and metabolic health interact with one another. It highlights the advantages of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) compared to moderate workouts, particularly in promoting mitochondrial health. The discussion also emphasizes the pivotal role of...
