    #379: The NEW Biohacking Stack For Gut Healing and Lifelong Vitality | Kiran Krishnan & Forrest Smith

    Today, I’m sitting down with two true pioneers in the health optimization space: microbiologist Kiran Krishnan from Just Thrive, and Forrest Smith, founder of Kineon. In this episode, we bridge two often separate worlds—gut health and photobiomodulation—to explore what happens when you combine spore-based probiotics with red and near-infrared light therapy. You'll hear about the unexpected links between the gut and brain, the pivotal role of leaky gut in everything from neurodegeneration to hormone imbalance, and why Forrest started experimenting with shining red light directly on his abdomen. Whether you're looking to optimize your longevity, support immunity, or simply understand how foundational gut health really is, this conversation is packed with practical strategies, cutting-edge insights, and a fresh perspective on the interconnectedness of our bodies.   • Visit Justthrivehealth.com/discount/NAT and use code NAT20 for 20% off sitewide. • Visit https://kineon.io/NATNIDDAM for 10% off!   Episode Timestamps: Gut Health, Probiotics & Red/Near Infrared Light ... 00:03:43 Forrest’s Red Light Gut Experiment ... 00:04:45 The Gut-Brain Axis & Neurodegeneration ... 00:09:20 Leaky Gut and Systemic Inflammation ... 00:13:09 GLP-1 Impacts on Gut-Brain Communication ... 00:19:32 Endotoxins, Inflammation & Brain Health ... 00:23:47 Synergy: Probiotics Plus Red Light ... 00:31:16 Microbes & Light: Evolutionary Health Foundations ... 00:31:38 Mucosal Lining and Phototherapy ... 00:36:33 Spore-Based Probiotics: Why They Matter ... 00:40:26 Universal Colonizers & Gut Health ... 00:49:32 Gut-Skin Axis, Environmental Factors, Phototherapy ... 00:55:50 Biohacking: Mimicking Nature ... 01:02:20 Endocrine Disruption & Gut Connection ... 01:03:02 Vagus Nerve: Two-Way Highway & Stimulation ... 01:09:34 Practical Tips: Who Should Use These Tools ... 01:20:52 Digestive Bitters: Simple, Upstream Fix ... 01:27:59 Myths About Probiotics & Red Light ... 01:33:10   Our Amazing Sponsors: MitoQ - is a breakthrough in cellular health, built on 20 plus years of research.

    #378: SOLO (Zombie Cells)

    Today, I’m diving solo into a topic that’s both fascinating and a little bit spooky—senescent cells, also known as “zombie cells.” Understanding zombie cells is a crucial piece of the puzzle if you want to feel younger, stronger, and more resilient as you age. In this episode, I unpack what senescent cells are, why they’re not just harmless bystanders, and how their buildup can accelerate the aging process and drive chronic inflammation—one of the hallmarks of aging. I break down the lifestyle habits that might be quietly increasing your zombie cell load, the early warning signs your body could be giving you, and most importantly, the evidence-backed interventions you can start using right now—from exercise and diet, to cutting-edge supplements, peptides, and more.   Episode Timestamps: What are Senescent (“Zombie”) Cells and Why They Matter ... 00:00:36 Key Causes and Lifestyle Factors Driving Senescence ... 00:02:40 Dietary Strategies: Mediterranean Diet, Protein, and Polyphenols ... 00:08:57 How Zombie Cells Disrupt Tissue and Drive Chronic Disease ... 00:13:37 Symptoms Linked to Excess Senescent Cells ... 00:20:58 Challenges in Measuring Senescent Cells ... 00:23:31 Senescent Cells: Helpful in Healing, Harmful in Excess ... 00:30:39 Senolytics and Senostatics: Drugs and Natural Compounds ... 00:36:14 Lifestyle and Supplement Strategies to Reduce Zombie Cells ... 00:39:14 Peptides for Advanced Senescence Management ... 00:48:09   Our Amazing Sponsors: Probiotic Breakthrough by Bioptimizers: uses a stress-tested Lactobacillus plantarum strain that showed over 30× greater survival in bile and intestinal fluid vs. generic strains.
