Today I am speaking with Carolina Reis Oliveira, OneSkin Co-Founder & CEO.

We discuss the importance of addressing the root cause of skin aging and the role of senescent cells in the aging process. We also talk about the skin barrier and how it can become compromised. Carolina shares her thoughts on retinol and the importance of listening to your skin's reaction to products. OneSkin measures skin aging through the epigenetic signature of the skin. OneSkin has developed a peptide called OS1 that has been shown to reduce the age of the skin by 2.5 years in humans. The peptide works by reducing the load of senescent cells and promoting collagen production. OneSkin is constantly researching and developing new products to target skin aging and are exploring the potential of using their peptide for other inflammatory conditions. OneSkin believes in the importance of staying at the forefront of scientific research and innovation to provide the most effective products for skin aging.

ABOUT CAROLINAFascinated with biology from a young age, Carolina knew she’d have a future in science. A fearless leader with a passion for longevity and living life to the fullest, she embarked on an ambitious goal — to delay the onset of age-related diseases by targeting aging itself. This led her to earn degrees in stem cell biology and tissue engineering, and a doctorate in immunology. Then, determined to translate her academic achievements into real-world impact, Carolina left her native Brazil for Silicon Valley, co-founding OneSkin in 2016. As Chief Executive Officer, Carolina and her team spearhead research and development, creating molecules that target cellular aging, including their pioneering innovation, the OS-01 peptide.

I am speaking with Christian Drapeau, inventor of a plant-based stem cell product for health and longevity, Stemregen.

Christian is more than a scientist; he’s a stem cell expert and herbalist, pioneering plant-based stem cell enhancers. Yes, plants and stem cells together! His background from McGill University and work at Stemtech International make him a leading voice in stem cell science.

His book, ‘Cracking the Stem Cell Code,’ reveals how our bodies use stem cells for repair, and his latest research shows how aquatic plants can boost stem cell production, like nature’s own fountain of youth.

We’ll explore how Christian’s journey in ancient herbalism led to innovative discoveries in stem cell enhancement and clarify the difference between traditional procedures and products like STEMREGEN.

Today I am sitting down with my friend, Dave Asprey. Dave is the father of Biohacking and has been a friend and mentor for years. We discuss all things longevity and biohacking!



About Dave:

Dave Asprey is best known as the founder of Bulletproof Coffee and the entire Biohacking movement. As a four-time New York Times bestselling author, CEO of Upgrade Labs, and host of a Webby award-winning, top 100 podcast, The Human Upgrade (formerly Bulletproof Radio), Dave is a maverick in the entrepreneurial health science and biotechnology space.As a true pioneer, Dave was the first person to ever sell a product online, and of course, it was related to coffee. He sold caffeine t-shirts out of his dorm room before the web browser was even invented which earned him a profile in Entrepreneur Magazine. Dave became an early internet technology journalist, cyber security expert, and co-founded a division of Exodus Communications, a company that seeded the internet we know today.At only 28 years old, Dave’s phenomenal career success left him battling cognitive fog, arthritis, pre-diabetes, put him at high risk for stroke, and with the biochemistry of a 60-year-old. His own premature aging launched him on a quest to reclaim his health and vitality, lose over 100 pounds, and not only reverse his biological age but increase his IQ by over 12 points! This work led him to create The Bulletproof Diet and to coin the health science term “biohacking,” a word once deemed “fringe” yet now resides in the Merriam Webster dictionary, along with Dave Aprey as part of the definition.Dave's relentless pursuit of human potential drove him to invest nearly $2 million in upgrading his biology and run the world's first and largest biohacking conference, earning him the title "Father of Biohacking." You’ve seen him featured in Men's Health, the Today Show, Wired, Good Morning America, the New York Times, Fast Company, and many other major publications. Forbes named his company one of the top 20 most innovative brands in the world, and he’s credited with creating three unique billion-dollar markets: MCT Oil, Collagen Protein, and Functional Coffee.Dave’s mission is to help people upgrade to a happier, more conscious state, one cell at a time.As the founder of 40 Years of Zen, Dave applies neuroscience to personal transformation. 40 Years of Zen is the world's most exclusive five-day intensive for upgrading the brain.

Today Dr. Killen and I discuss hormone optimization and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for women. She explains that HRT can start in perimenopause, around the age of 35-40, and involves replacing hormones like progesterone, testosterone, and estrogen to maintain optimal levels. She emphasizes the importance of personalized dosing and using bioidentical hormones rather than synthetic versions. Dr. Killen also highlights the benefits of HRT, including improved libido, motivation, skin health, fat burning, and muscle building. She recommends regular hormone testing and discusses the different types of hormone administration, such as creams and injections. Additionally, she addresses the issue of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and the importance of early detection and treatment. In this conversation, Dr. Killen and Kayla Barnes discuss various topics related to women's health, including hormone replacement therapy (HRT), polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), longevity supplements, sexual health, and skin health. They also touch on the importance of vitamin D and sun exposure, as well as the potential benefits of cold plunging.
