    Can This Supplement Slow Skin Aging?

    Can a supplement you swallow reduce skin aging? Can it help with wrinkles, dryness and loss of firmness? In this episode, I explore GliSODin, an SOD supplement, with François Vix, founder of ISOCELL, the company behind it. If you've noticed your skin changing in your 40s or 50s, you've probably considered creams and serums. But could something you swallow help keep your skin looking younger? François spent years working with major cosmetics brands before moving into supplements. We discuss superoxide dismutase (SOD), its role in the body's antioxidant defences, and why he believes skincare from the inside out deserves more attention. We explore: Why skin ages, including changes in collagen, elastin and skin hydration. How free radicals, oxidative stress and sun exposure contribute to visible skin aging. What creams and serums can offer—and where oral supplements might fit in. How GliSODin works and what distinguishes it from other SOD supplements. The research François points to on skin elasticity, wrinkles and combining supplements with topical skincare. Safety considerations, including GliSODin's gluten content. Everyday habits that support skin health as we get older. If you're wondering whether supplements can slow skin aging, join us for a conversation about the approach behind GliSODin and the questions worth asking before adding another product to your routine.

    Introducing Building the AI Factory: Consumption, Cost & the Right People from Edge of IT. Follow the show: Edge of IT In the Season 4 premiere of Edge of IT, host Jonathan Gough welcomes back Emily Martin, Executive Vice President of AI Strategy at Pellera, for her third appearance on the show. Together, they unpack why AI adoption feels so overwhelming right now, and why the answer isn't a better roadmap, it's a better operating model. Emily breaks down the framework she uses with clients: AI as a feature, a product, and a factory, not a ladder to climb, but a consumption management model that shifts with what an organization actually needs. They also dig into the increasingly tricky world of tokenomics and model selection, and why the smartest AI decisions have less to do with the technology and more to do with who's in the room. If you're wondering where your organization stands on the road to an AI factory, or whether that road even ends, this episode is for you.

    Digital Eye Strain: Symptoms & How To Prevent It

    Digital eye strain—also known as computer vision syndrome—can leave your eyes feeling dry, gritty and tired after hours spent looking at a computer, phone or tablet. You may also experience blurred vision, headaches, difficulty refocusing and even neck or shoulder pain. In this episode, we explore what causes digital eye strain and why prolonged screen time can change the way you focus and blink. You'll learn how to reduce eye strain from screens by adjusting your monitor position, increasing the text size, improving your lighting and dealing with screen glare. We also examine the 20-20-20 rule, the importance of taking regular screen breaks and why making a few slow, complete blinks may help with dry eyes. You'll discover whether blue-light-blocking glasses really work, how air conditioning and contact lenses can contribute to eye discomfort, and when persistent symptoms should be checked by an optometrist. If you spend much of your working day in front of a screen, these simple changes could make your eyes feel considerably better.   Research Sources Blink patterns: reading from a computer screen versus hard copy - PubMed Blue-light filtering spectacle lenses for visual performance, sleep, and macular health in adults - PubMed   Get The Newsletter https://stayhealthylivelonger.substack.com/ Social Channels Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/timquin0/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TimQuin0

    Movement Breaks: Stay Active & Healthy At Work

    Most of us know that sitting all day isn't ideal and you may have heard people talking about movement breaks. But how often should you get up from your desk—and can a two-minute walk really make a difference? In this episode, I explore the benefits of movement breaks at work and how breaking up prolonged sitting may support blood sugar control, circulation, energy, concentration and workplace wellbeing. You'll discover what counts as a movement break, how long one should last and practical ways desk workers can move more during the workday without disrupting productivity. We examine some of the health risks of sitting all day and consider whether regular movement breaks can ease back and neck stiffness. You'll also hear simple strategies including short walking breaks, office movement exercises, taking the stairs, walking during phone calls and using a walking pad when working from home. Can exercise compensate for a sedentary working day? And should you take a movement break every hour? If you have a desk job and regularly realise you haven't moved for hours, this episode offers a realistic way to reduce sitting time at work.

    What Does Vitamin B12 & Folic Acid Do & Should You Be Taking A Supplement?

    Folic acid and vitamin B12 supplements. Should you be taking them — especially once you hit your 40s, 50s and beyond? In this episode we break down what folic acid and vitamin B12 actually do for your body, and whether supplementing them is something worth considering as you reach middle age. We start with the basics: what is folic acid, how folate vs folic acid actually differ (and whether folate is the same as folic acid), and why vitamin B12 does its own separate, vital job protecting your nervous system. You'll learn which folic acid foods and vitamin B12 foods to prioritise — from leafy greens, beans and citrus to meat, fish, eggs and dairy — and why B12 is one vitamin plant-based eaters need to pay close attention to. From there we get into why these two vitamins matter so much: the well-established folic acid benefits around pregnancy, the fatigue and anaemia linked to folic acid deficiency, and the vitamin B12 deficiency symptoms — numbness and tingling, balance issues, memory problems — that can build slowly over years before you notice them. Most importantly, we tackle the real question: should you actually supplement? We cover the folic acid side effects and risks of taking it when you don't need it (including how it can dangerously mask a serious B12 deficiency), why vitamin B12 absorption naturally declines with age, and the specific groups — vegans and vegetarians, adults over 50, and people on metformin or acid-reducing PPIs like omeprazole — for whom supplementing genuinely makes sense. In this episode: What is folic acid, and what does folic acid do for your body? Folate vs folic acid — is folate the same as folic acid? What does vitamin B12 do, and what is vitamin B12 good for? Folic acid for pregnancy: why the evidence here is strong The folic acid deficiency and vitamin B12 deficiency symptoms to watch for Who should take a folic acid or vitamin B12 supplement — and who probably shouldn't Before you spend money on supplements you may not need, this episode will help you work out where you actually stand — and why a simple blood test might be the smartest first step.

    Autoimmune Disease: How to Manage Fatigue, Brain Fog & Pain With Small Daily Habits

    Autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, and celiac disease are on the rise. For those living with an autoimmune disease, symptoms can show up as fatigue, brain fog and chronic pain, along with many other symptoms that can make life very challenging. If you are one of the many people living with an autoimmune condition or suspect that you may have one, this episode gives you a practical framework to take back control of your life with simple habits to start managing and improving your symptoms. This is my conversation with Dr. Amy Behimer, a health and lifestyle coach who specialises in helping people with autoimmune diseases. She explains how tiny, consistent changes can transform the way you feel, function, and age. Why the foundation of better health is about building a simple system that actually fits into your life. As a pharmacist, a board-certified health and wellness coach, and someone living with multiple autoimmune conditions, Amy brings a rare combination of expertise and lived experience to this conversation. You'll discover: Why autoimmune conditions often cluster, and what that means for your long-term health The role of genetics, stress, lifestyle, and environment in triggering symptoms Why ultra-processed foods work against the very energy systems your body depends on How to think about food, movement, sleep, relationships, mindset, and "good stress" as one connected system Why mindset is a core part of feeling better and making progress How to stop trying to do everything at once and start using a framework that builds momentum Amy also shares her personal journey from vitiligo and Graves' disease to celiac disease and multiple sclerosis, including the mental and emotional shift that changed everything. Her idea of autoimmune health reframes a diagnosis from a life sentence into a chance to create better habits, better resilience, and a brighter future.
