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

    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.

    How to Build Muscle After 50: Protein, Leucine & Amino Acid Timing - Jim Stoppani

    Jim Stoppani, PhD, joins Gary Brecka to explain anabolic resistance, why leucine decides whether a meal builds muscle at all, and why he takes his branched-chain amino acids 30 minutes before eating instead of with the meal. Plus protein absorption from whole food versus whey versus free-form aminos, cardio versus weights when time is short, and how to train after 50 without getting hurt.

    Q&A: Folic Acid, MTHFR, Vitamin D3 & Testosterone

    Everyone thinks testosterone is bad for your heart, but with 10,000 receptors for it in the heart alone, I'd argue low testosterone is the real cardiovascular risk. In this solo Q&A, I answer the 11 questions you ask me most, from TRT and vitamin D to folate and my morning breathwork. It all comes back to one thing: you're not broken, you're deficient, and that's fixable.

    Dr. Jordan Rubin: The Truth About Raw Dairy and Your Gut

    You'd think a 100% terminal diagnosis leaves you only one path, but Jordan Rubin proved otherwise, twice. I sat down with him to unpack how he clawed back from 104 pounds and 69 failed doctors with Crohn's at 19, then beat a 90-day cancer death sentence at 33, and the raw dairy, ancestral-eating, and faith-first framework that came out of both. If you take one thing from this conversation, let it be his "vitamin H", hope,  the most deficient nutrient we have, and the first ingredient in any real healing.  CLICK HERE TO BECOME GARY’S VIP!: ⁠https://bit.ly/4ai0Xwg⁠ Get Dr. Jordan Rubin’s book, “The Biblio Diet”:  https://bit.ly/4xQdsKl  Listen to "The Jordan Rubin Show" on all your favorite platforms!

    Healf Experience Wellbeing Event 2026 in London - Methylation Test & MTHFR Gene

    You've been told your whole life that your condition is genetic, that it runs in your family, and you're stuck managing it forever, but I'm telling you that with rare exceptions, we don't inherit disease at all. What we inherit is an inability to refine a raw material, which creates a deficiency, and that deficiency is what shows up as the symptom you've been calling a disease. Find what your body can't make on its own, put it back, and watch what happens.  CLICK HERE TO BECOME GARYS VIP!: ⁠https://bit.ly/4ai0Xwg⁠ Thank you to our partners A-GAME: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: http://bit.ly/4kek1ij AION: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4h6KHAD AIRES: "ULTIMATE20 " FOR 20% OFF: https://bit.ly/4a3Duze BAJA GOLD: "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3WSBqUa BODYHEALTH: “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: http://bit.ly/4e5IjsV COLD LIFE: THE ULTIMATE HUMAN PLUNGE: https://bit.ly/4eULUKpCYMBIOTIKA: "BRECKACYM30" FOR 30% OFF: https://bit.ly/4tjyluP GENETIC METHYLATION TEST (UK ONLY): https://bit.ly/48QJJrk GENETIC TEST (USA ONLY): ⁠https://bit.ly/3Yg1Uk9 GOPUFF: GET YOUR FAVORITE SNACK!: https://bit.ly/4obIFDC H2TABS: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4hMNdgg HEALF: 10% OFF YOUR ORDER: https://bit.ly/41HJg6S PEPTUAL: “TUH10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4mKxgcn SNOOZE: LET’S GET TO SLEEP!: https://bit.ly/4pt1T6V WHOOP: JOIN & GET 1 FREE MONTH!: https://bit.ly/3VQ0nzW Watch  the “Ultimate Human Podcast” every Tuesday & Thursday at 9AM EST: YouTube: ⁠https://bit.ly/3RPQYX8⁠ Podcasts: ⁠https://bit.ly/3RQftU0⁠ Connect with Gary Brecka Instagram: ⁠https://bit.ly/3RPpnFs⁠ TikTok: ⁠https://bit.ly/4coJ8fo⁠X: ⁠https://bit.ly/3Opc8tf⁠ Facebook: ⁠https://bit.ly/464VA1H⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠https://bit.ly/4hH7Ri2⁠ Website: ⁠https://bit.ly/4eLDbdU⁠ Merch: ⁠https://bit.ly/4aBpOM1⁠ Newsletter: ⁠https://bit.ly/47ejrws⁠ Ask Gary: ⁠https://bit.ly/3PEAJuG⁠ Timestamps 00:00 - Intro of Show 01:04 - Gary takes the stage 02:39 - Going back to the basics of human physiology 04:22 - The two bold promises and mortality data 05:04 - Why life insurers predict death to the month 06:03 - The myth that disease is genetically inherited 08:11 - Reading deficiencies: tired, sore, brain fog, anxiety 09:53 - Circadian rhythm and bookending your sleep 12:11 - Fasting as a jet lag superpower 13:16 - Live breath work session 16:58 - The second bold promise 17:53 - The methylation chart explained 19:18 - MTHFR and the anxiety-gut link 22:27 - Homocysteine, creatine, and methyl donors 25:31 - Why targeted supplementation beats random stacks 26:22 - Reading a supplement label for cofactors 28:41 - The genetic methylation test 30:06 - Q&A: fibroids, insulin resistance, the Dutch test 33:03 - Q&A: LDL, triglycerides, and Lp(a) 39:58 - Q&A: high cortisol and hormone ratios 43:58 - Q&A: Hashimoto's, the Dutch test, and the COMT gene 47:18 - Q&A: Asperger's and mood numbness 51:18 - Q&A: anaphylaxis and mast cell activation 57:20 - Q&A: vitiligo and red light therapy 59:59 - Q&A: low T3, the liver, and selenium 1:05:28 - Q&A: IBS and the pace of the gut Disclaimer: This podcast is for informational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.

    Dr. Deep Sea: Hyperbaric Chamber Benefits Nobody Explains Correctly

    Dr. Joe Dituri, also known as Dr. Deep Sea, spent 100 straight days living underwater and walked away with lower cholesterol, longer telomeres, and twice the stem cells, so I had to get him on to break down what hyperbaric oxygen actually does. In this episode, we cover why a focused 20-day protocol might move your health-span more than any supplement stack, how his deep and REM sleep nearly doubled, and the safety rules almost no home-chamber owner knows. It genuinely shifted how I run my own chambers, and it'll shift how you think about oxygen, pressure, and aging, too.  CLICK HERE TO BECOME GARY’S VIP!: https://bit.ly/4ai0Xwg Get Dr. Deep Sea’s book, “Secrets in Depth”: https://bit.ly/4q8tNat Connect with Dr. Deep Sea Website: https://bit.ly/45IaXxs   YouTube: https://bit.ly/45wPsjj   Instagram: https://bit.ly/4fKDnNk  Facebook: https://bit.ly/4q2E7AB   X: https://bit.ly/4wKQmEy   LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4bwsvQz   Thank you to our partners A-GAME: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: http://bit.ly/4kek1ij AION: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4h6KHAD AIRES: "ULTIMATE20 " FOR 20% OFF: https://bit.ly/4a3Duze BAJA GOLD: "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3WSBqUa BODYHEALTH: “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: http://bit.ly/4e5IjsV COLD LIFE: THE ULTIMATE HUMAN PLUNGE: https://bit.ly/4eULUKpCYMBIOTIKA: "BRECKACYM30" FOR 30% OFF: https://bit.ly/4tjyluP GENETIC METHYLATION TEST (UK ONLY): https://bit.ly/48QJJrk GENETIC TEST (USA ONLY): ⁠https://bit.ly/3Yg1Uk9 GOPUFF: GET YOUR FAVORITE SNACK!: https://bit.ly/4obIFDC H2TAB: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4hMNdgg HEALF: 10% OFF YOUR ORDER: https://bit.ly/41HJg6S PEPTUAL: “TUH10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4mKxgcn SNOOZE: LET’S GET TO SLEEP!: https://bit.ly/4pt1T6V WHOOP: JOIN & GET 1 FREE MONTH!: https://bit.ly/3VQ0nzW Watch  the “Ultimate Human Podcast” every Tuesday & Thursday at 9AM EST: YouTube: https://bit.ly/3RPQYX8 Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3RQftU0 Connect with Gary Brecka Instagram: https://bit.ly/3RPpnFs TikTok: https://bit.ly/4coJ8foX: https://bit.ly/3Opc8tf Facebook: https://bit.ly/464VA1H LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4hH7Ri2 Website: https://bit.ly/4eLDbdU Merch: https://bit.ly/4aBpOM1 Newsletter: https://bit.ly/47ejrws Ask Gary: https://bit.ly/3PEAJuG Timestamps 00:00 - ​Intro of Show 01:52 - The 100-day underwater world record 02:13 - Cholesterol, stem cell, and telomere results 02:50 - From Navy diver to hyperbaric medicine 05:35 - The largest TBI study ever run 06:34 - The 13 mechanisms of action 08:58 - Why pressure and dose matter 11:03 - The $101 million X Prize 13:24 - The hyperoxic-hypoxic chamber 16:16 - Doubling stem cells in five days 24:06 - Why more is never better 26:18 - Deep and REM sleep underwater 32:18 - Intermittent hypoxia and mitochondria 42:54 - Altitude and legal blood doping 47:43 - A 100-year safety record 52:44 - His stroke and the road back 01:06:48 - Oxygen, sugar, and cancer research 01:14:10 - Stacking sauna, ice, and red light 01:16:57 - The sauna-before-bed sleep hack 01:20:30 - What it means to be an ultimate human Disclaimer: This podcast is for informational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.

About

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
