The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

Gary Brecka

Подробно

Gary Brecka is a Human Biologist, biohacker, researcher, and an anti-aging and longevity expert. His approach to health is simple: "Aging is the aggressive pursuit of comfort." For over 20 years, he worked in the life insurance industry predicting mortality. This meant if he got 5 years of medical records and 5 years of demographic data on you, the team that he was associated with could tell a life insurance company how long you had to live to the month. After years and years of doing this type of research and analysis, he decided he wanted to spend the balance of his lifetime helping people live happier, healthier, longer, more fulfilling lives. With this mission in mind, he created The Ultimate Human podcast. In this weekly podcast, Gary has exciting conversations with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and scientists and is thrilled to share their transformative insights with you. What's keeping you from being an ultimate human? Tune in to find out. For more info on Gary, click here: https://link.me/garybrecka

305 . Why CD38 Destroys NAD+ Faster Than You Produce It
NAD+ became a $4.5 billion industry of IV drips, patches, nasal sprays and powders almost overnight, with clinics charging $2,000 a bag to reverse your age and cure your hangover.

304. Forrest Galante: Why Comfort Is What Actually Ages You
Wildlife biologist Forrest Galante has spent his life around animals that have constant access to food and never eat themselves into obesity or liver disease, and he argues that what humans do traces back to the one thing we have spent a century engineering out of our lives.

303. The Truth About Anxiety and Your Vagus Nerve
You might think your anxiety is a mindset problem. It isn't. In this episode, human biologist Gary Brecka explains why chronic stress leaves your autonomic nervous system stuck in fight-or-flight, and how elevated cortisol degrades your gut lining, suppresses your immune system, stores fat around your midsection and, according to research on chronic stress and telomeres, may accelerate how fast you age. He breaks down the vagus nerve as the physical brake line of your parasympathetic system, then walks through four free daily resets you can start today: the physiological sigh and five minutes of slow breathing before you touch your phone, 30 seconds of cold at the end of your shower, ten minutes of morning sunlight in your eyes with your feet on the ground, and two hard rules on caffeine and the last hour before bed. No pills, no supplement stack, no subscription. If you wake up exhausted, your heart races for no reason and you lie down tired and wired, this one explains why.

301. 300th Episode: How to Strengthen Your Immune System with Wim Hof, Barbara O'Neill, Kelly Slater & More!
300 episodes ago, I had a simple dream: put life-changing information on a platform for free and watch what happens. Today that has turned into 300 conversations with people who have almost nothing in common. A nightclub owner. An 11-time world champion surfer. A grandmother with 25 grandchildren. A two-time UFC champion. A man who has walked into the ice nearly every day for close to 50 years. Two people working on the food supply from inside the federal government. My own wife. And an author whose biggest book has a curse word in the title.
