In this replay episode, Mike Feldstein makes the case that clean air may be the single most overlooked variable in your health, sleep, and cognitive performance stack.

Mike draws on firsthand experience from the LA wildfires (testing air, soil, and water after thousands of homes burned), revealing why most standard air purifiers, water tests, and insurance claims completely miss the real threat. You'll also discover how clean air has eliminated snoring and resolved sleep apnea symptoms in real households, what cognitive research on chess grandmasters reveals about pollution and decision-making, and how Mike is building Kindling Academy, a school designed from scratch around healthy air, light, toxin-free materials, and community wellness.

Mike Feldstein is the founder of Jaspr, an air purifier company built on the conviction that most people are sleeping, working, and raising children in air that quietly undermines their health. With a background in wildfire restoration and indoor air quality consulting, he channeled years of hands-on field experience into creating the Jaspr Air Scrubber, a unit with a 4-pound filter roughly 10 times heavier than most competitors, built for real-world performance rather than lab benchmarks. Jaspr collaborates with building biologists, air scientists, and health practitioners to deliver practical guidance on indoor environments.

In this episode, you'll hear the origin story of Mara Labs, a company built around sulforaphane, the active compound found in broccoli that has been studied across thousands of papers covering almost every major chronic disease, and why most people aren't actually getting it from their broccoli supplements. You will discover why the way your broccoli supplement is made determines whether any of it reaches your cells, what dose of the active compound moves the needle on inflammation, detox, and cellular defense, and how a single capsule compares to eating five pounds of adult broccoli a day. You'll also hear something that has not been discussed publicly before: a pilot study showing that this same compound can trigger your cells to release microplastics, those synthetic particles now found in human blood, lungs, and breast tissue, and push them out through your digestive system.

David Roberts is the co-founder of Mara Labs. After his wife Mara was diagnosed with breast cancer passed away in 2017, David channeled his experience into building a supplement company grounded in clinical science rather than ingredient trends. Dr. John Gildea is Chief Science Officer and co-founder, with a PhD in molecular biology and over 20 years studying the Nrf2 pathway at the University of Virginia. Author of more than 60 peer-reviewed publications, he developed the stabilization method that made shelf-stable sulforaphane possible and has since led research on sulforaphane's effects on microplastics and cancer stem cells.

In this special replay episode with repeat guest Dr. Anurag Singh from Timeline Nutrition, you'll explore the science of cellular health and longevity, including why mitochondrial function affects everything from energy and muscle performance to cognitive clarity and how well you age. Dr. Singh explains how urolithin A, a postbiotic compound derived from foods like pomegranates and berries, activates mitophagy, the body's cellular clean-up system that clears out worn-out mitochondria and replaces them with new ones, and how clinical research shows it can support muscle strength, endurance, immune resilience, and cognitive function. You'll also hear how diet, gut health, exercise, sleep, and recovery work alongside urolithin A to build a stronger, more resilient physiology over time.

Dr. Anurag Singh is Chief Medical Officer at Timeline Nutrition, with an M.D. in internal medicine and a Ph.D. in immunology. He has authored more than 50 scientific articles, been awarded over 20 patents, and led more than 50 randomized clinical trials.

In this episode with Lucy Goff, you'll hear how a near-fatal bout of septicemia after childbirth sent her on a decade-long search through the world's leading science institutions, and how that search led to LYMA, a company built around the conviction that damaging your skin to improve it is the wrong approach entirely. You'll discover why the collagen you get from ablative lasers, microneedling, and radiofrequency is scar collagen, how cold laser works by a completely different mechanism, and what a head-to-head gene expression study in human skin revealed when a cold laser was compared to an LED running ten times the power.

Lucy Goff is a former journalist and luxury publicist who walked away from a successful career to change the wellness industry from the ground up. She launched the LYMA Supplement in 2018, followed by the LYMA Laser, the first FDA-cleared at-home clinical-grade laser. LYMA is now recognized as one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Beauty Companies, a King's Award for Enterprise winner, and one of the fastest-growing private companies in Britain.

In this episode with Mickey Trescott, you'll hear how she went from bedridden at 26 with Hashimoto's and celiac to overseeing four pilot trials, helping grow a community of 1,000 trained AIP practitioners, and writing the first official update to the Autoimmune Protocol, including a new modified version for people who found the original too restrictive.

We cover what a full day of eating on AIP actually looks like, why food sensitivity panels cannot replace elimination and reintroduction, how to use WHOOP to track food reactions, the genetics of autoimmunity, the iodine problem in Hashimoto's, and why three out of four people who follow AIP properly get meaningful clinical improvement.

Mickey is a nutrition professional and one of the founding leaders of the Autoimmune Protocol movement. She wrote the original AIP cookbook, which became the definitive guide to the protocol. Her new book, The New Autoimmune Protocol, releasing May 26, 2026, includes detailed meal plans and 70+ recipes across both the core and modified protocols. Pre-order your copy here.

In this fascinating episode, Nick Pineault, also known as “The EMF Guy,” breaks down the latest science on radiofrequency radiation, including findings from the National Toxicology Program, the WHO classification of EMFs, and emerging evidence linking device exposure to oxidative stress and reduced sperm health. The conversation also highlights why current safety standards may not reflect real-world, long-term exposure.

You’ll also discover the concept of “body burden,” which is the accumulation of heavy metals, mycotoxins, and environmental toxins that can build up silently over time. Nick shares his own experience discovering high levels of lead, mercury, and mold toxins despite being physically fit, along with the changes he noticed after addressing detoxification through sauna therapy, oxygen cycling, and chelation. 

If you’re dealing with brain fog, low energy, or unexplained symptoms, this episode connects the dots between modern environmental exposures, from EMFs to microplastics, and how they may be influencing your overall health.

Nick Pineault is an investigative health advocate, author, and educator. He is the author of The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs and has spent over a decade researching the health effects of electromagnetic fields and modern environmental exposures. His work focuses on translating complex scientific data into practical strategies for reducing risk in a technology-driven world.

He is also the creator of the documentary Body Burden, which explores the hidden accumulation of toxins in the human body and the emerging field of environmental medicine.

In this special 500th solosode, you’ll discover some of the most effective and often overlooked ways to build strength, preserve muscle, and get more out of your training, combining recent research with practical strategies you can actually use. From surprising data on pistachios as a high-antioxidant food to advanced methods like eccentric overload, BFR, motor imagery, and real-time biofeedback, you’ll see how small tweaks can lead to significantly better results in the gym.

I also explain why traditional resistance training still beats shortcuts like weighted vests for maintaining muscle, how factors like arousal and visualization can directly impact strength output, and what a full weekly training plan looks like when you combine these approaches. 

On the nutrition side, I walk through how to dial in protein intake and distribution based on research from Brad Schoenfeld and Alan Aragon, along with fascinating NASA-backed research on EAAs and their ability to preserve muscle even during extended inactivity.

If you want to train smarter, recover better, and build strength more efficiently, this episode gives you a clear, science-backed roadmap to do exactly that.

In this episode with Dr. Joseph Purita, Chief Medical Officer of PUR-FORM and a pioneer in regenerative medicine with over 40 years in the field, you'll explore the cutting-edge therapies, protocols, and emerging science reshaping what is possible in human health and longevity. 

Dr. Purita breaks down how EBO2 works, why photobiomodulation across six distinct wavelengths, each targeting a different cellular mechanism from mitochondrial energy production to viral inactivation, does far more than most people realize for healing and cellular regeneration, and how therapies like intermittent hypoxia, hyperbaric oxygen, and photoactivated NAD IVs can be stacked.

You'll also get a deep dive into Muse cells, what makes them fundamentally different from regular MSCs, how they home in on damaged tissue like a magnet using S1P signaling, and why Dr. Purita believes they will be as transformative as MSCs were 20 years ago. 

You'll hear about the underrated IV therapies Dr. Purita uses at PUR-FORM, from photoactivated methylene blue and curcumin to intravenous spermidine and EGCG, the peptide stack he relies on, why nitric oxide support is central to his stem cell protocols, and what he has his eye on next including hydrogen therapy, the Klotho protein, and the emerging role of gene therapy in longevity medicine.

Dr. Joseph Purita is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon who has been at the forefront of advancing stem cell and biologic therapies. He is also a sought-after global speaker in the regenerative medicine industry, most recently educating his peers on the science and clinical potential of Muse cells.

What does it take to show up as a strong, present, and resilient father in a world that gives most men no clear blueprint?

In this episode with John Schott, you’ll explore why so many dads feel depleted, distracted, and unsupported, and how that ties directly to poor recovery, low energy, and lack of structure. You’ll also discover how simple systems built around circadian rhythms, movement, hydration, and family routines can restore your physical edge while improving patience, focus, and leadership at home. This conversation goes beyond surface-level advice, exploring what truly shapes a man's identity and why the way he shows up as a father and leader ripples into his family and our broader culture.

John Schott is a bodyworker, wellness practitioner, and founder of the Conscious Dad Protocol, a system designed to help men optimize their physical health, emotional resilience, and leadership within the family unit. With years of experience in fascia work, recovery techniques, and holistic living, John combines ancestral principles with modern strategies to create practical systems that support both performance and presence.

Through his work, he focuses on helping fathers build stronger bodies, clearer minds, and deeper connections with their families while navigating the demands of modern life.

In this fascinating episode, Dr. Nichola Conlon, molecular biologist and founder of Nuchido, breaks down what NAD actually is, what it does inside your cells, and why most popular strategies for boosting it, including NAD IVs, patches, and high-dose NR or NMN, may be fundamentally flawed based on molecular biology. 

You’ll discover why NAD declines by half every 20 years, why the NAMPT enzyme and not a shortage of raw material is the real bottleneck, and why flooding the body with precursors without fixing the salvage pathway can actually strain your methylation pathways rather than raise NAD. 

You’ll also explore how inflammation through the cluster of differentiation 38 (CD38) enzyme silently drains NAD faster than almost anything else, what a gold standard double-blind placebo-controlled crossover clinical trial on Nuchido TIME+ actually showed, and why NAD sits at the intersection of energy production, cellular repair, sleep, skin health, and biological aging. 

Dr. Nichola Conlon (BSc, MRes, PhD) specializes in cellular aging. After a career in drug development, Dr. Nichola founded Nuchido, driven by her belief that cutting-edge science should not lie hidden. At Nuchido, Dr. Nichola’s work focuses on delivering disruptive innovation in the field of anti-aging, rejuvenation, and healthspan. It has led to the development of Nuchido TIME+, a dietary supplement clinically proven to boost NAD+ and reverse biological age. Unlike standard precursors such as NMN or NR, Nuchido TIME+ uses a systems-based approach to target the root causes of NAD+ decline.

In this episode with repeat guest Dr. Matt Dawson, you’ll discover how epigenetic testing analyzes DNA methylation to reveal how fast you’re biologically aging, what’s driving your health, and your risk for disease.

In this episode with Dr. Tommy Wood, you'll explore what actually determines how well your brain functions across your entire lifespan, from the inputs that drive cognitive development in infancy all the way through the habits, environments, and daily choices that either accelerate or protect against decline in adulthood and old age, all grounded in the research behind his new book, The Stimulated Mind: Future-Proof Your Brain from Dementia and Stay Sharp at Any Age. 

You'll discover why the modern world leaves you simultaneously overstimulated by technology and understimulated in the ways that actually build cognitive capacity, why lactate from intense exercise may be one of the most underrated brain health tools you have, and which types of exercise target different parts of the brain.

In this episode, you'll get to uncover one of the most intriguing developments in gut health—fecal microbiota transplants (FMTs). Joining me is Jason Klop, CEO of Novel Biome, who brings cutting-edge insight into how FMT is transforming from an obscure, hospital-based procedure into an accessible, precise, and surprisingly simple tool for optimizing your microbiome at home.

We’ll break down how FMT is now being used for everything from irritable bowel issues to food sensitivities, and why the technology has advanced well beyond its origins. You'll also hear about the meticulous screening behind “super donors,” the science of oral FMT capsules, and the real-world results you can expect—including my own personal experience. Whether you’re looking to boost your gut health, support your immune system, or simply curious about the connection between your microbiome and overall vitality, this episode has what you need to stay on the cutting edge of holistic wellness.

Jason Klop brings a clinical background in naturopathic medicine to his role as founder and CEO of Novel Biome, Canada's first licensed manufacturer of Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) products. Having personally treated hundreds of patients with FMT in clinical practice, Jason saw a gap in the availability of safe, standardized microbiome restoration therapies and set out to build the infrastructure himself. Today, Novel Biome supplies FMT products to clinics, hospitals, and clinical trials around the world.

In this episode with neuroscientist Dr. Guosong Liu, you’ll explore his accidental discovery at MIT's Center for Learning and Memory that led him down a two-decade journey into brain magnesium, synaptic plasticity, and cognitive decline. That research ultimately resulted in the invention of Magtein® (magnesium L-threonate), a compound he engineered to cross the blood-brain barrier in a way other magnesium forms cannot, with clinical trials showing a reversal of nine years of cognitive decline, measurable shifts in sleep architecture, stress reduction in as little as three days, and meaningful improvements in prefrontal cortex function at just 140 milligrams per day. Dr. Liu also shares what his current Alzheimer's prevention research looks like.

Dr. Liu is a world-renowned neuroscientist whose pioneering research on brain magnesium has transformed our understanding of cognitive function and synaptic plasticity. With more than 25 years of neuroscience expertise, he previously served on the faculty at MIT's Picower Institute for Learning and Memory, founded the Center for Learning and Memory at Tsinghua University, and earned his Ph.D. in Neurophysiology from UCLA. His translational research has bridged laboratory discovery and human clinical application, resulting in multiple trials demonstrating Magtein's efficacy in supporting cognitive performance.

Magtein is the patented, clinically studied form of magnesium L-threonate designed to cross the blood-brain barrier and support memory, focus, mood, sleep quality, and stress resilience. Featured in more than 400 products across 40-plus countries, it is the global standard in brain-support magnesium nutrition.

Episode Summary

As I promised last week here are all 10 of my personal identity inversions, laid bare. In part 2 of the Identity Inversion series, I walk you through the full exercise I completed during an 8-hour personal retreat—2 hours each morning across 4 days—revealing the blind spots, weaknesses, and patterns I identified in my own life and the single words I'm using to redraw my identity. You’ll learn about everything from my impatience with imperfection to my fear of trying new things as I age. I also share practical tips for what to do with your list once you have it, including a surprisingly useful hack for categorizing your inversions.

Question of the Day 🗣️

If you did this exercise right now, what's the first identity pattern that comes to mind, and what might your inversion word be?

Key Takeaways

• This exercise took me 8 hours across 4 mornings during a personal retreat—and I recommend everyone schedule 3 to 5 days annually for exactly this kind of self-reflection work.
• I identified 10 inversions, each following the framework: describe the pattern in a paragraph, name the redemptive opposite in a sentence, and distill it into one word.
• My 10 inversion words: kindness, prayer, contentedness, honor, love, trust, obedience, abundance, intention, and courage.
• Feeding the list into GPT revealed a useful categorization: love anchors why I live, prayer/trust/obedience anchor who I depend on, intention/courage anchor how I move, contentedness/abundance anchor how tightly I hold, and kindness/honor anchor how I treat others.
• This isn't about perfection or self-worship—it's about becoming better equipped to love God and love others with the purpose you've been given.

Whether you're curious about the science behind anti-aging, optimizing recovery, or what's next for wearable tech and AI in healthcare, this conversation delivers practical insights and actionable takeaways.

Dr. Cook graduated from the University of Washington School of Medicine, completed his residency in anesthesiology at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF), and completed fellowships in Anti-Aging, Metabolic and Functional Medicine, and Peptide Therapy with the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine.

## Episode Summary

In this episode, I introduce a very helpful life transformation framework called “Identity Inversion.” It's a simple exercise I designed (based on my own self-experimentation!) for identifying unconscious patterns, habits, and identity traps that are keeping you from becoming the best version of your broken self. Using two relatable examples (a man addicted to the gym for self-worth and a woman addicted to productivity for approval), I’ll walk you through a three-step process: describe the pattern in a paragraph, name its redemptive opposite in a sentence, then distill it into a single word that becomes the key to redrawing your identity. Next week, so you can get a really concrete idea of what this looks like, I’ll share my own 10 identity inversions.

## Question of the Day 🗣️

What's one identity pattern you've been running on autopilot, and if you flipped it, what single word would describe who you'd become?

## Key Takeaways

• How you live your days is how you live your life, and chances are, you are stuck in a hypnotic trance of habits shaped by old desires, environments, and upbringing that quietly became your identity.
• The Etch-A-Sketch metaphor: your daily habits get drawn together to form your identity, and sometimes you need to shake the board and redraw it.
• Identity Inversion is a 3-step exercise: describe an identity pattern in one paragraph, name its redemptive opposite in one sentence, then distill that into one single word.
• Example: A man whose identity is wrapped up in gym performance discovers his inversion word is "confidence," meaning being secure regardless of how his body looks.
• This isn't self-worship or moral polish, because growth disconnected from loving God and loving others always stalls out or turns inward.

In this solosode I kick off by talking about whether isometric training is worth your time, covering both my own fitness habits and the newest research, particularly for runners and joint health. I also unpack a buzzworthy study on how just 10 minutes of vigorous exercise daily can be a powerful longevity booster compared to longer, lighter workouts.

I share why I no longer personally use metformin, and instead, offer my favorite natural alternatives for better blood sugar control—like berberine, fiber, cinnamon, and simple routines like salads and walks. Plus, I get into brain health, explaining the roles of ketones, methylene blue, and near-infrared light for cognitive performance and protecting against issues like Alzheimer’s. At the end, I answer listener questions on optimizing DHT levels, natural insulin-sensitizers, and keeping your hair healthy even if you’re on testosterone. If you’re interested in practical strategies and learning what’s currently working in my own routine, you’ll enjoy this episode.

Why you should accept that you are broken and how that changes everything about the way you pursue health.

Episode Summary

In this episode, you learn about my lifelong obsession with perfection nearly ruined my ability to enjoy anything—sports, relationships, and even the pursuit of health itself. From golden child syndrome to slowly dropping out of sports I couldn't podium in, to the pain of losing my father, I lay it all out. This episode explains why none of the biohacking matters if you can't first accept that you're broken and find happiness in the journey anyway.

Question of the Day 🗣️

Where in your life has the pursuit of perfection quietly stolen your joy, and what would it look like to let that go?

Key Takeaways

• My identity was built on perfection from a young age—good grades, sports success, bodybuilding by 14—and anything that fell short felt like a threat to who I was.
• That obsession drove me to quit tennis, triathlons, and obstacle course racing the moment I couldn't finish on top.
• The hardest truth: my demands for perfection strained my relationship with my dad, and when he died of cancer, I felt like I'd failed my final attempt to "fix" him.
• We're all broken—our bodies and brains break down—and no amount of biohacking changes that.
• It's not until we stop trying to be perfect that we can actually savor the journey of becoming the best version of our broken selves.

02:45 – The word "boundless" and what it really meant to me: the opposite of broken

Are supplements truly enhancing your health, or are they just hijacking it?

Episode Summary

In this final part of my 4-part “Ancestral Mismatch” series, I walk you through a complete sample day that ties together everything we've covered—hormesis, environment, and nutrition—into one practical, affordable routine. 

From throwing open your curtains at sunrise to donning a $20 red light headlamp at bedtime, I show you exactly how simple (and cheap) it is to align your modern life with your ancestral biology. No hyperbaric chambers, no organic coffee enemas, no umbilical cord stem cell infusions. Just the basics done right.

For your convenience, here are parts 1–3 of this series on fighting the “ancestral mismatch” and the uphill battle against living in a toxic, modern, industrialized world:

• Are We Just Modern Zoo Animals? The Ancestral Mismatch (Part 1)
• Are We Just Modern Zoo Animals? The Ancestral Mismatch (Part 2)
• Are We Just Modern Zoo Animals? The Ancestral Mismatch (Part 3)

Question of the Day 🗣️

Looking at this sample day, which piece are you already doing—and which one are you most likely to try first this week?

Key Takeaways

• A fully ancestral-aligned day doesn't require expensive biohacking equipment—it's built on natural light, filtered water, movement, whole food, and intentional rest.
• My morning routine is simple: sunlight, journaling or prayer, filtered water, 20 minutes of light movement and stretching outdoors, followed by a cold shower.
• "Movement snacks" throughout your workday—jumping jacks, push-ups, air squats every 45 minutes—replace the need for a long gym session.
• A whole roast chicken is a life cheat code: 5 minutes to prep, feeds you for days, and costs a fraction of eating out—I'll link my wife Jessa's easy recipe.
• This full day weaves together every principle from the series: spiritual habits, thermal stress, nature exposure, wholesome nutrition, hormesis, and circadian rhythm alignment—all on a budget.

On this episode, I got to geek out with Dr. Jason Fung and unravel why calorie counting alone doesn’t explain our weight struggles. Dr. Fung used jaw-dropping stats—like nearly identical calorie consumption between nations with wildly different obesity rates—to illustrate how hormones, digestion, and even the microbiome play a much bigger role than just numbers. 

We also broke down the three types of hunger—homeostatic, hedonic, and conditioned—and explored how ultra-processed foods hijack our biology. Dr. Fung shared that ditching those foods is his top strategy for conquering hunger, while I revealed how staying busy and using GLP-1s can help curb appetite during fasting or travel. 

Dr. Jason Fung is a physician (kidney specialist), researcher and New York Times best-selling author currently practicing in Toronto, Canada. trained in Los Angeles and Toronto and currently practices as a nephrologist (kidney specialist). His books, including The Obesity Code, The Complete Guide to Fasting, The Diabetes Code and The Cancer Code have challenged conventional thinking about these diseases, and introduces dietary strategies to manage them.

I brought on Connie Zack, who co-founded one of the most highly regarded infrared sauna companies, to help break down the research, technology, and best practices. We discussed questions like how hot a sauna needs to get, whether the latest gadgets and red lights are worthwhile, the real science behind detox and heat stress, and even tips for making sauna routines fit anyone’s lifestyle—whether you’re a hardcore athlete or just want to relax and recover. 

Connie Zack is the co-founder of Sunlighten, the global leader in infrared sauna and light therapy and the creator of the full-spectrum, low EMF infrared sauna I use. Inspired by her brother's health transformation, she and her husband, Aaron, left successful pharmaceutical careers to revolutionize the industry with science-backed innovations. 

Connie is a pioneer in infrared light technology, driving widespread education on its benefits through collaborative partnerships. A passionate advocate for holistic health, Connie integrates nutrition, exercise, mindfulness, and infrared therapy into her life. As a mother, wife, wellness enthusiast and entrepreneur, she brings light, hope and happiness to the world through her expertise in how infrared light and heat impacts healthy lifespan.

Episode Summary

In part 3 of the “Ancestral Mismatch” series, Ben Greenfield delivers three no-nonsense dietary strategies that anyone can implement without breaking the bank or setting foot in an overpriced health food store. You'll learn why fried seed oils are more damaging than sugar (and why Ben would choose cotton candy over a corn dog every time), how to avoid ultra-processed foods by shopping the perimeter of any grocery store, and why sourcing your food matters for your health, animal welfare, and the planet. Ben even drops his go-to travel grocery list that works at any supermarket on Earth.

Question of the Day 🗣️

What's one ultra-processed food you know you should ditch but keep reaching for, and what whole-food swap could replace it?

Key Takeaways

- Rancid heated seed oils in fried foods are more damaging long-term than sugar—lipid oxidation products (LOPs) become the building blocks of your cells and contribute to chronic disease risk.

- Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are engineered to be addictive, stripped of nutrients, and loaded with additives, preservatives, and oxidized oils—shop the perimeter to avoid them.

- You don't need an expensive health food store—Ben's entire travel grocery list (rotisserie chicken, berries, avocados, sardines, nuts, yogurt, dark chocolate) costs under $40 and lasts days.

- Farmer's markets from May through October give you access to local, sustainably grown food—and many farmers will sell you a quarter or half cow and ship it in batches.

- Skip the fluff labels ("natural," "farm fresh")—look for USDA Organic, Pasture-Raised, MSC Certified, and Certified Humane instead.

In this episode, Dr. Andrew Koutnik returns for part 2 of our deep dive into metabolism and nutrition. We explore why you need far fewer carbohydrates than you think—both during daily life and intense exercise—and how sustained blood glucose levels for brain energy metabolism matter more than muscle glycogen stores. Andrew breaks down the different types of exogenous ketones, debunks liver toxicity concerns, and shares groundbreaking research on ketones for sleep quality and sleep apnea treatment from his NASA astronaut studies.

Dr. Andrew Koutnik is a research scientist whose career bridges cutting-edge science, elite performance, and personal experience living with type 1 diabetes for over 17 years. His work focuses on how nutrition, metabolism, and lifestyle can be leveraged to maximize human health, performance, and resilience across diverse conditions—from chronic disease to extreme environments.

Episode Summary

In this episode, we shift from last week's hormesis deep-dive to the second weapon in your ancestral mismatch arsenal: your environment. You'll discover how degraded air quality, flickering LED lights, contaminated water, and invisible EMFs are silently wrecking your sleep, fogging your brain, and loading you with toxins—then get a practical, budget-friendly environmental audit you can start this weekend.

Question of the Day 🗣️

What's one thing in your living or working environment you've always suspected might be affecting your health—but haven't done anything about yet?

 Key Takeaways

• Your environment may be undermining your health more than your diet or exercise routine—air, light, water, and EMFs are the invisible variables most people ignore.
• Modern indoor air quality, fluorescent lighting, treated water, and constant wireless exposure create a toxic soup our biology was never designed to handle.
• You don't need a full home renovation to make a meaningful difference—standalone HEPA filters, incandescent bulbs, countertop RO systems, and airplane mode are powerful starting points.
• A basic environmental audit is one of the highest-ROI health moves you can make with minimal cost.
• This is part two of a three-part ancestral mismatch series—next week: food.

In this episode, Matt Maruca, CEO and co-founder of Ra Optics, dives deep into the science and practical realities of blue light, circadian health, and optimizing your environment for better sleep and longevity. We tackle the nuances of blue light exposure from sunlight versus artificial sources, break down how proper blue light-blocking glasses can support melatonin production and overall wellness, and bust common myths—including those from recent documentaries and reviews. Along the way, Matt shares updates on the latest lens technology, why not all blue blockers are created equal, and the future of lighting and color therapy for health.

Matt Maruca is the founder & CEO of Ra Optics, the leader in premium blue light protection eyewear. Matt founded Ra Optics after a decade-long journey to improve his own chronic health issues as a child and teenager.

As he looked further, he came across the science of mitochondria, circadian rhythms, and how light influences these factors—playing an essential, but overlooked, role in our health and well-being. He became fascinated by entrepreneurship, and decided that he could use the in-formation that helped him to help others.

Matt also created The Light Diet, a diet that directly addresses the root of the modern, chronic disease epidemic and mitochondrial dysfunction. Matt now spends his time traveling the world, studying and teaching about the relevance of light in human health cycles with a focus on reversing this situation, as well as integrating science with ancient Eastern wisdom.

How modern life has turned us into zoo animals—and the simple stress strategy our ancestors used to stay strong, lean, and disease-free.

Over the past five weeks, I’ve given you my perspective on the biohacking and longevity scene. I’ve noted the emptiness and time-wasting that can result from the vain pursuit of immortality so often seen in the “advanced” health optimization world (if you missed any of my articles, you can read them here).

Episode Summary

In this episode, I dive into why chasing biohacking gadgets and anti-aging protocols misses the bigger picture: we're living in an environment our biology was never designed for. I'll reveal the concept of "ancestral mismatch"—how our caveman bodies struggle in our temperature-controlled, food-abundant, movement-starved modern world—and show you how strategic doses of discomfort (hormetic stress) can reverse chronic disease. This isn't about becoming a caveman; it's about getting the basics right that actually move the needle.

Question of the Day 🗣️

Which ancestral mismatch hits you hardest—too much comfort, too much food availability, or too little movement? And what's ONE hormetic stressor you could add to your day starting tomorrow?

Key Takeaways

• We're zoo animals now — Just like captive animals die from metabolic disorders instead of predators, we've traded acute ancestral struggles for chronic modern diseases.
• Comfort gradually kills — As my friend Gary Brecka says, aging is "the aggressive pursuit of comfort," and our temperature-controlled, movement-free existence accelerates biological entropy.
• Hormesis is the antidote — What harms you in large doses (exercise, cold, heat, fasting, plant toxins) builds resilience in small, strategic amounts.
• The ancestral mismatch is everywhere — We have caveman biology operating in a world of 24/7 hyper-palatable food, climate control, and desk work.

In this episode, I pull back the curtain on one of the single most powerful tools in my daily performance and recovery toolkit: Non-Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) and its close cousin, Yoga Nidra.

I cover common myths around short sleep, explain why even “powered-through” fatigue adds up, and illustrate why most of us can’t cheat biology by running on six hours forever. You’ll get an honest play-by-play: what actually works for rebooting your system after a short night, the real science behind NSDR (think: brainwave states, nervous system regulation, and hormone balancing), and the exact guided meditations, apps, tech (like Sensate, or BrainTap), and routines to supercharge midday recovery.

In this episode, I sit down with the legendary clinical pharmacist Jim LaValle for a fascinating exploration of some of the most innovative approaches to health, performance, and longevity. We discuss everything from peptides and small molecules for mitochondrial and kidney support to the science behind improving VO2 max, brain function, sleep, and more. Jim LaValle unpacks his decades of experience, shares cutting-edge research on metabolic health, and explains the power of his Metabolic Code test—which I recently tried myself—for identifying and addressing the biggest bottlenecks in your health journey.

Throughout our conversation, we swap stories about nutrition missteps (think gallons of dairy and endless antibiotics), dive into the practical application of peptides like KPV, BPC-157, and lorazotide for healing the gut, and examine trends Jim repeatedly sees even in high performers—like stress-driven hormone changes and sneaky signs of inflammation. If you’re curious about how personalized lab testing, wearable data, and smart supplementation can help you feel better, perform better, and age powerfully, you’ll love the insights in this episode.

James "Jim" B. LaValle, B.S.Pharm, CCN, MT, DHM, DHPh, is an internationally recognized clinical pharmacist, author, and board-certified clinical nutritionist, with over 40 years of clinical experience in natural products, lifestyle, drug/nutrient depletion, compounding pharmacy, and peptides.

Writing a book is a lot like childbirth—exhausting, and not something you rush back into the moment it’s over.

I’ve never given birth, but I have written several books—and after finishing Boundless, I wasn’t too eager to jump straight into that process again. Until recently.

There are just too many health myths wasting your time, energy, and attention—especially around supplements, cold and heat exposure, sleep, fasting, seed oils, red meat, carbohydrates, psychedelics, biohacking, and the modern obsession with living forever.

So over the coming months, I’m going to tackle these types of topics through a weekly newsletter, article, and video series, which will eventually be crafted into my next book.

If something resonates, let me know. If something falls flat, tell me. And if there’s a topic that deserves a deeper dive, point me there.

Head to https://bengreenfieldlife.com/article/newsletter-1/ for today’s article, and drop any other feedback in the comments, including topics you think I should address in the book!

In today's episode, Dylan and I explore how your genetics, microbiome, lifestyle, and activity level all play a role in what works best for you. I share my thoughts on carbs (they’re not the enemy!), why the Mediterranean diet is often a solid fallback, and how to customize your approach—whether you’re training like an athlete or just trying to eat well on a budget.

We also get real about fasting: I break down what works for high performers, how to balance longevity with peak performance, and what fasting windows actually make sense if you’re pushing your body hard. From there, we dissect the critical topic of heart health, talking through the difference between stable and unstable plaque, key diagnostic tools, and both natural and pharmaceutical strategies I’ve studied—and used personally—to keep my heart in top shape.

Welcome to RAW—my unfiltered solo podcast (hosted on LIFE Network), where you get the real, behind-the-scenes version of my life: the biohacking experiments I’m running on myself, the protocols I’m building and breaking, the tools and tech I’m stress-testing before anyone hears about them, the ideas in physiology, performance, and longevity I’m diving into, the beliefs I’m questioning, the routines I’m refining, and the unconventional stuff I’m actually doing day to day—no gloss, no script, just a direct line into what I’m thinking, testing, discovering, and living in real time.

In this episode, we go deep into the “RAW” terrain of jaw mechanics—think controversial, awkward, and a tad nerdy, but game-changing for health. It all starts at a cocktail party when a Sherlock Holmes-style dentist spots red flags just by looking at his mouth. Cue a year-plus journey into bioesthetic dentistry, mindfully chewing food, and mastering “mewing” (tongue and jaw posture that even changes your face shape).

What’s the big actionable win? Stop ignoring your mouth! Rethink your mechanics, posture, and oral hygiene—ditch the fluoride, embrace hydroxyapatite toothpaste, train your tongue to suction to your palate, and breathe through your nose like a pro. Bonus: mouth taping is not just for sleep geeks.

In this episode with Dr. Nick Norwitz, you’ll get to discover how a Harvard-trained MD/PhD used a simple, eyebrow-raising experiment with Oreos to challenge conventional thinking on cholesterol, metabolism, and the stories told about health.

We dive into his now-viral “Oreo experiment,” where adding Oreos to a ketogenic diet dropped his LDL cholesterol faster and more effectively than a high-intensity statin—an unexpected outcome that opens the door to deeper questions about lipid markers, risk factors, and how the body actually processes dietary fats.

Nick Norwitz MD PhD is a researcher-educator whose mission is to “Make Metabolic Health Mainstream.” He graduated Valedictorian from Dartmouth College, majoring in Cell Biology and Biochemistry, before completing his PhD in Metabolism at the University of Oxford and his MD at Harvard Medical School. Nick has made a name for himself as a clinical research and metabolic health educator, speaking and writing on topics ranging from brain health, the microbiome, mental health, muscle physiology, mitochondrial function, cholesterol and lipids, and so on.

Welcome to a no-holds-barred, behind-the-scenes edition. You’re getting an exclusive replay from my Life Network’s RAW series—a solo deep dive where I share straight-up, sometimes controversial truths you won’t always hear on the main show.

In this episode, I peel back the curtain on a recent mastermind weekend at my home, where I observed over 20 high-performing men up close: we’re talking morning routines, meal habits, biohacking practices, tech usage—you name it. What did I see? Even the “healthy” folks slip into patterns that sabotage fat loss, disrupt sleep, tank metabolic health, and kill mobility. I lay it all out: how “healthy” snacks sneak in hundreds of mindless calories, why evening stimulant use is wrecking your sleep, the truth about EMF and laptop exposure, the game-changing power of post-meal movement, and the essential daily mobility practice my body swears by.

Morley received his BA in Biology from Denison University in Ohio and holds an MBA from George Washington University in healthcare administration. Morley has trained in wellness coaching, nutritional counselling, and functional diagnostic nutrition.

He is also known as the Magnesium Man due to his extensive research into and understanding of magnesium’s role in the body. Morley’s research saw him deciphering the intricate relationship between magnesium, iron, copper, and calcium as a way to free ourselves from illness and dis-ease. As a certified health coach with an expertise in Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA), Morley has performed thousands of RCP one-on-one consultations, helping people feel better by getting to the root cause of their symptoms. The Root Cause Protocol (RCP) we discuss in this podcast was developed by Morley, who transformed a career in the mainstream medical industry into a quest to learn the fundamental components of a healthy metabolism.

The RCP claims to work by restoring balance to the key minerals – magnesium, copper and iron – that must work together in order to optimize energy and increase vitality. Now, the RCP is in Morley‘s new book “Cure Your Fatigue” 

This book is designed for those seeking the truth in human metabolism and those wanting to take back control of their health. It is one part textbook and one part user's guide based on a decade of research and client experience

Aching tightness, head-splitting migraines, breathing issues, and poor sleep quality — these are all signs of trapped tension in your body.

The good news is that exercising one specific (and often forgotten) body part can help restore your well-being… I'm talking about your tongue…

I first discovered how to unlock the power of whole-body tension relief when Dr. Neel Bulchandani visited my house and did some very unique body therapy on me (including putting his fingers into my mouth and my nasal cavity to 'adjust' those sections)! I later released an Instagram post about his groundbreaking Tongue Press program — a video series and guide designed to optimize tongue mobility.

Dr. Bulchandani is a holistic chiropractor and bodywork educator who has poured over 15 years of chiropractic expertise and five years of training fellow bodyworkers into creating not just Tongue Press, but his other unique methods as well.

*If you want to try his Tongue Press program, you'll receive a masterclass packed with videos, audio, and a detailed PDF guide. Plus, you get months of Dr. Bulchandani ‘s exclusive newsletter, all with a special 30% discount, by using code BenAirway here.

In this episode, I dig into the fascinating story of the world’s oldest woman—a vibrant supercentenarian from Spain who made it to 117 years old. I break down what researchers discovered about her genes, lifestyle, and daily habits (you might be surprised by some of the things she ate and didn’t do!).

I also get nerdy about the newest longevity drugs and supplements—like curcumin, spermidine, taurine, and a few others you might not expect—and explain which ones actually work, according to the science in mammals. Plus, I share some updates from my own life, like the weirdly exciting health setting I just found on my new iPhone, and spill the beans on why I microdose alcohol (and sometimes other things) instead of going on a bender.

If you’re curious about muscle gain (do you really need to be in a calorie surplus?), soft-shell vs hardshell hyperbaric chambers, or how certain supplements might actually help you live longer, you’re in the right place. There’s a lot of info coming your way, and I’ve tried to translate all the geeky science into practical tips for you to use.

Low libido... brain fog... and decreased muscle mass — many women face these issues without realizing they could be linked to hormone imbalances, particularly low testosterone levels.

As you navigate through perimenopause or menopause, the overlapping symptoms can be confusing and frustrating, making it difficult to pinpoint the root cause and find effective solutions.

In this episode, Dr. Amie Hornaman and I dive deep into the often-overlooked aspects of hormone management, with a special focus on testosterone's pivotal role in women's health. From understanding the complex interactions between testosterone and thyroid levels to exploring the best methods for hormone testing, you'll receive a comprehensive guide to optimizing your hormone balance. You'll also gain insights into various testosterone replacement methods, strategies to manage side effects, and tips on integrating peptide therapy for enhanced recovery and growth hormone levels. Whether you're seeking to boost your libido, enhance cognitive function, or maintain muscle mass, this episode offers practical advice to help you achieve your health goals.

Dr. Amie is a certified functional medicine practitioner, a women's hormone specialist, and has a doctorate in clinical nutrition. Dr. Amie helps patients navigate thyroid and hormone supplements and provides thyroid support resources. Dr. Amie's patients are located around the world, including the US, UK, and Australia, and she uses telehealth to help thousands of patients each year.

In this special live-recorded episode, actor Luke Cook—known for Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2—joins me for a raw, unfiltered conversation about what it really means to live well. Recorded during A Boundless Evening at HUME Los Angeles, this fireside chat brings together curiosity, science, and honest reflections on health, performance, and purpose.

We start with the rhythms of daily life—how I approach mornings, training, and eating while traveling—and why balance beats perfection. You’ll hear how my cyclical keto approach helps me stay sharp and grounded while still enjoying the moments that matter. From movement habits and fasted training to the little environmental tweaks that keep me active throughout the day, we explore how health can be both sustainable and joyful.

We dive into the evolving world of biohacking—cold plunges, nootropics, and stress adaptation—through both skepticism and lived experience.

The conversation goes deeper than supplements or science. We reflect on the connection between discipline and creativity, the balance between ambition and family, and why my personal philosophy centers on healthspan, not just lifespan.

In this spirited debate, Dr. Baker highlights the benefits of a strict carnivore approach—meat, eggs, some dairy, and minimal plant foods—not only for himself but also for patients managing chronic health issues. He explains why animal-based nutrition can be so effective, breaks down the science of ketosis and gut health, and responds to concerns about long-term effects of fiber-free diets.

Meanwhile, Joel Greene makes the case for dietary variety, drawing from evolutionary biology, clinical research, and personal experience. He explores the synergies of combining animal and plant foods, the role of fiber in gut and immune health, and the ancestral rhythms of scarcity and feasting. Joel argues that even small amounts of diverse foods can offset downsides of strict elimination diets.

Dr. Baker is a physician, athlete, and author known for his straightforward, meat-focused approach to nutrition and his background in strength sports. Joel is the creator of Veep Nutrition, a program targeting gut communities to improve health, used by major employers and featured on the Dr. Phil Show. Author of The Immunity Code, Joel has devoted 50 years to health and anti-aging, pioneering practices like MCTs in the ’80s, keto in the ’90s, and AMPK activation by 2009. At 55, he remains a 100% natural athlete.
