HUComment VITALITY & I’ll DM you a link to the full episode.
I’m super excited about the episode of the Huberman Lab podcast out today with my colleague Dr Tony Wyss-Coray, who has spent his career finding factors present in youthful blood, as well as after exercise and other beneficial activities, including social interaction (!) that can be harnessed to rejuvenate the brain and body.
Keep in mind *no one is saying to replace important behaviors! Quite the contrary. But just as GLPs are made naturally, but have now been harnessed as important anti-obesity treatments you could imagine using molecular approaches to make exercise even more effective, especially in older age. Of course, the combination of peptides and behaviors is where the real changes in favor of health occur.
Also keep in mind the discussion around youthful blood is not what you imagine: for instance, maybe we should all be banking our own blood now for when we get older, no matter what your age is currently. After all the clinical trial showed that blood transfusion can help with dementia. There are also data showing that after an injury your blood has factors that can damage other tissues and it’s not just due to inflammation. That might be a good time to offset with healthier blood. (From you!)
The conversation is a serious one about hormone therapies, behaviors, peptides, and new factors such as Klotho for treating dementia. Tony is not a bio hacker. He’s a serious researcher, doing the work of developing true medicines.
It’s a very grounded conversation in what’s real and what is an illusion in this whole space of vitality and longevity. Any and everyone interested in health and longevity ought to find it interesting and useful.
Meanwhile, if you have any questions about these topics, please put them below and as always, thank you for your interest in science!
