3/22/2023
This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, InsideTracker, Joovv, and Thrive Market. Excess belly fat, or visceral fat around the organs, is the number-one cause of aging. It drives inflammation, increases the risk of blood clots, changes your hormones and brain chemistry, and more. It’s a recipe for disaster in the body.

This episode is brought to you by Paleovalley, ButcherBox, and Athletic Greens. Depending on what form they take, our relationships with others can either make our lives fulfilling and joyful or stressful and even sad.

Why “Skinny Fat” Can Be Worse than Obesity

3/17/2023
This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health and Athletic Greens. It’s no secret that being overweight or obese can increase your risk for numerous health problems, including stroke, some cancers, heart disease, and depression. What many people don’t realize, however, is that we can suffer all these problems even if we’re normal weight or underweight. Scientists have even coined a phrase for this phenomenon: “thin on the outside, fat on the inside,” or TOFI. Instead of being “overweight,”...

What To Eat To Support Your Gut, Reduce Inflammation, And Have More Energy

Young Forever: The Secrets To Living Your Longest, Healthiest Life

2/22/2023
This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, Athletic Greens, Joovv, and BiOptimizers. We can’t avoid getting older, but we can reduce biological aging—the internal process that creates all the symptoms of the disease we’ve come to call aging. That means we can be one age chronologically, and another internally. I’m happy to use myself as an example of what we can do to our biology when we take out negative inputs and embrace positive ones: I’m 63 years old but my biological age is 43. We...

I focus a lot on the importance of diet and exercise when it comes to health and longevity, but daily habits like good sleep hygiene, healthy stress management, living out of a sense of purpose, prioritizing self-care, and community involvement are just as important. This is because your health and longevity are determined by your individual exposome washing over your genes. In other words, your genes are not your...

How Having Variety In Your Diet Creates Health

There are thousands of phytochemicals, also called phytonutrients, found in whole foods like vegetables, fruits, nuts, grains, spices, and tea, among many other things. These...
