In today’s episode, I speak with Dr. Kamal Obbad, the co-founder of Nebula Genomics. Kamal is a Harvard and Gates-Cambridge Scholar with research experience at Google. Recognizing a gap in the consumer market for Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS), he co-founded Nebula Genomics to democratize access to comprehensive genomic data. Kamal aims to make personal genomics mainstream and accessible.
We chat about the significance of whole genome sequencing and its potential to improve health and wellness. Kamal gives us a lesson on what the genome is, the importance of studying the whole genome sequence for health optimization, and why it has previously been so cost prohibitive to secure whole genome sequencing.
In this episode you will learn:
- Understand the concept of personal genomics and its potential impact on health and wellness.
- Learn about the difference between whole genome sequencing and other genetic tests.
- Gain knowledge about the complexity of DNA and the importance of non-coding regions in genetic analysis.
- Recognize the limitations and concerns associated with genetic testing and the need for genetic counseling.
- Explore the future possibilities of DNA sequencing and its role in personalized medicine

We are diving deep into some of today’s most popular scientific breakthroughs in the field of health optimization. My expert guest shares real-life applications from his wealth of knowledge and experience. Join us to learn more about feeling better, looking better, and adding years to your health span!
Dr. John Sottery is a Ph.D. scientist who believes that “aging normally” is a disaster. As a 63-year-old with young children, he is incredibly focused on maximizing his health and lifespan. His goal is to teach others how to outperform their chronological age through mitochondrial and cardiovascular health, and he focuses his research on ways to turn on the body’s genes that will drive protection and repair. After obtaining his doctorate in chemistry from Duke University, he led project development teams at Procter & Gamble before leaving to start several companies of his own. Through his work today, he attacks problems to understand them at a molecular level to maximize health span, slow down the damage, and accelerate repair in the body.
Show Highlights:
What is most important to know in optimizing mitochondrial healthWhy we need to understand what damages mitochondria, how to get rid of the damaged ones, and how to create new mitochondria from undamaged onesDr. John’s #1 tip for mitochondrial health: Don’t eat within three hours of going to bed.How to push your mitochondria with ice baths, saunas, or HIIT workouts–so that your body knows how to recycle defective mitochondriaHow to understand the basics of intermittent fasting, autophagy, antioxidants, and free radicalsWhy broccoli sprouts are good for us–and other foods that turn up Nrf2How the body’s phase 2 toxification enzymes work to eliminate carcinogensDr. John’s take on getting vital nutrients from food vs. relying on supplementsHow to get the most nutrition out of the broccoli you eatHow fasting, exercise, Resveratrol, and spermidine help turn up autophagyHighlights of the overall benefits of spermidine, including recent research about preventing colon cancer and osteoporosisSources and benefits of ergothioneine (an amino acid found primarily in mushrooms)Why copper can be the difference between mild cognitive impairment and full-blown Alzheimer’s (Eat your mushrooms!)Why YOUR body has its own recipe for optimal healthDr. John’s final thoughts about how excess fructose, alpha tocopherols, and omega-6 fats are harming peopleResources
