Could the root cause of Parkinson's disease be hiding in your gut?
In this Longevity Podcast episode, I am joined by Martha Carlin, founder of The BioCollective and BiotiQuest, to explore the role of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) â cellular debris from harmful bacteria â in Parkinson's disease and other chronic conditions.
We dive into the importance of the microbiome in overall health, the connection between constipation and Parkinson's, and the potential impact of probiotics in mitigating LPS-related issues. We also explore the benefits of cold showers, cold plunges, and cryotherapy in signaling microbes and the potential of AI in accelerating learning and understanding the complexities of the microbiome.
Martha Carlin, a former business turnaround expert turned citizen scientist, has emerged as a pioneering force in microbiome research and Parkinson's disease studies since her husband's diagnosis in 2002. After teaching herself chemistry, physics, biochemistry, and microbiology, she founded The BioCollective in 2015, creating one of the world's first fecal banks to accelerate microbiome research, and later developed BiotiQuest, a line of innovative probiotics. Her groundbreaking work has led to collaborations across multiple scientific disciplines and speaking engagements at prestigious venues, including The White House 2016 Microbiome Initiative.

Are you protecting your immune system as you age?
In this Longevity podcast episode, I am joined by Dr. Anurag Singh to discuss recent research that suggests Urolithin A, a compound derived from pomegranates and other foods, may help rejuvenate the aging immune system.
We dive into how supplementing with Urolithin A for just 4 weeks led to significant improvements in immune cell function and a reduction in biological age by an average of 2 years in middle-aged adults. We also discuss insights on dosing, combining Urolithin A with other longevity strategies, and ongoing clinical trials that may reveal even more benefits.
Dr. Anurag Singh is the Chief Medical Officer of Timeline Nutrition, a biotech company focused on discovering and developing next generation natural compounds that target improvement in mitochondrial health. He began his career in 2003 as a Resident Medical Doctor at Northern Railway Divisional Hospital in Lucknow.

Are you getting enough deep sleep?
In this episode of the Longevity podcast, I am joined by Dr. Dan Cohen, a neurologist and sleep technology expert as he introduces a groundbreaking technology that could revolutionize how we approach sleep and stress management.
We discuss how this unique Soltec system differs from other sleep aids by actually supporting your brain's natural sleep cycles rather than just sedating you. We also dive into sleepâs implications for stress reduction, the impact of trauma on sleep, and the significance of restorative sleep for longevity.

We often hear that certain foods are "good" or "bad" for us. But what if the real key to health isn't about avoiding specific foods, but rather embracing diversity in our diets? In this Longevity podcast episode, I am joined by nutrition expert Joel Greene to discuss how nature's meal plan is built on variety and balance.
We dive into ancestral eating patterns including periods of "foraging" followed by occasional feasts, why even "superfoods" can become problematic if eaten too often, and how to mitigate the effects of less-than-ideal meals. We also discuss the surprising benefits of foods like oats, bananas, and cactus and why short-term results don't always translate to long-term health.
Joel Greene is the creator of the VEEP Nutrition System. He is a featured author, speaker, and guest in top-tier publications and his system has been featured on the Dr. Phil Show (among other shows), where it has delivered astounding life-changing results. He is the author of books such as The Immunity Code and his new book, âThe Way: The Immunity Code Diet.â

Has measuring mitochondrial health always seemed out of reach? Not anymore! In this Longevity episode, I am joined by Dr. Hemal Patel to discuss groundbreaking research that allows us to assess mitochondrial function through a simple at-home blood test.
We discuss how practices like meditation, breathing exercises, and even attending immersive retreats can dramatically improve mitochondrial health in as little as a week. We also dive into cell membrane composition and Dr. Patel's personal story of how he integrates meditation into his nightly routine for better sleep and creativity!
Dr. Hemal Patel is a Tenured Professor and Vice-Chair for Research in the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of California, San Diego, and has a dual appointment as a VA Research Career Scientist and VA Research Pharmacologist at the VA San Diego Healthcare System. He is also the Chief Scientific Officer for Versea Discovery. He has made seminal contributions in shaping new investigation areas on defining the impact of membrane structure on cell, organ, and organismal physiology and metabolism with implications for cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury, heart failure, diabetic cardiomyopathy, aging, pulmonary hypertension, cancer, and neurodegeneration.

Have you ever wondered if there's more to cancer treatment than just chemotherapy and radiation? In this Longevity Podcast episode, I talk with Dr. Nasha Winters to discuss the often-overlooked mental and emotional aspects of healing from cancer. Dr. Winters, a stage 4 ovarian cancer survivor of over 30 years, shares her incredible journey and the unconventional approach that transformed her health and career.
We discuss the concept of "10 drops in the bucket" - factors that contribute to cancer development and overall health, including genetics, metabolism, toxins, microbiome, immune system, inflammation, circulation, hormones, circadian rhythm, and stress. We also dive into an integrative approach, combining the best of conventional and alternative treatments, tailored to each individual's needs, the concept of metronomic chemotherapy - using lower doses more frequently, potentially reducing side effects while maintaining efficacy, psychedelic therapy (mushrooms), and much more.
Dr. Nasha Winters is an integrative oncology specialist, author of "The Metabolic Approach to Cancerâ and âMistletoe and the Emerging Future of Integrative Oncology,â host of the Metabolic Matters podcast, and Executive Director of the nonprofit organization, the Metabolic Terrain Institute of Health (MTIH).
