Why You Need NAD, Part 1
November 1, 2018
Nicotinamide riboside (key ingredient in TRU NIAGEN®️ and TRU NIAGEN® PRO) is an innovative nutraceutical that I’ve christened “the nutraceutical of the decade”; today’s guest Frank Jaksch, Executive Chairman of the Board of ChromaDex, developer of Tru Niagen, goes me one further and suggests it has the potential to become the supplement of the century! How does it work to support cellular metabolism? The secret is its effect on NAD, the key energy compound within the mitochondria. As we age, or in disease states, NAD levels inexorably decline. Why does that offer so much potential in prevention of age-related deterioration? What’s the status of current research on nicotinamide riboside? How is it taken? Is it safe and are there side effects? Can it boost energy and athletic performance? Click HERE for part 2.

Why should we be dubious about “bio-engineering?” What role for stem cells? Growth Hormone? What part does thymus regeneration play? How can we preserve our telomeres? Why is insulin resistance such a key component of aging—and how to avert it? Are there certain anti-aging foods or supplements? What role does exercise play in slowing the aging process? What about the “Vampire Cure?” What are “senolytics?” Click HERE for part 2.

ENCORE: Unlocking Your Personal Genetic Code, Part 1
August 16, 2018
"The DNA Restart," by Dr. Sharon Moalem, aims to help to “unlock your personal genetic code to eat for your genes, lose weight and reverse aging;" How does “epigenetics” shape the expression of our genes? Can you overcome genetic faults through lifestyle modification? Nutrigenomics is the science of predicting what diet a person should be on based on genetic analysis—are genetic home tests that tell you what diet to follow not yet ready for primetime? Dr. Moalem shares some functional tests that readers can easily perform at home: the “cracker test;” the "ear wax test;” Dr. Moalem is also the author of a previous book “Survival of the Sickest” which explains how some seemingly bad genes help to protect us; What is “umami” and how can it be harnessed to keep us from over-eating? What crucial culinary tip helps to harness the benefits of garlic? Why does Dr. Moalem favor Oolong tea? How can a low-cholesterol diet sometimes backfire and result in higher cholesterol? How do exercise and sleep help us maximize our genetic potential? Click HERE for part 2.
