#8 - Nick Sinclair - Extending The Health Span of Our Pets: How Improving Our Pets Health Span Will Improve Human Health Span
08/10/20 • 31 min
If you've lived in the twentieth century you've likely, at one point or another, had an attachment to a non human furry friend... and with any attachment comes the inevitable realization that our furry friend is a mere mortal... one that will age, slow down, and become frail in our life time. If this is something you dread, then this episode is for you.
In this day and age we live so closely with our pets that they've become members of the standard twentieth century family... and losing a pet is just like losing a family member. My guest today is a man that is attempting to drastically slow down the aging process of our furry best friends, and to extend the amount of healthy, happy, time that we have with them.
Nick Sinclair is the CEO of Animal Bioscience, one of the 5 daughter companies of famed David Sinclair's Life Biosciences. In this fascinating interview Nick helps explain to me just how they are tackling animal aging, how it's different than tackling human aging, how the discoveries in animal aging will actually help progress the science in human aging, and a plethora of other interesting topics. If you're interested in getting an inside look into the world of Longevity, you'll love this episode.

#7 - Joseph Baur - NAD, NMN, & NR - A Deep Dive Into NAD & It's Precursors w/ a Leading NAD Researcher
If you're confused about NAD and it's precursors then this is the podcast for you. Dr. Joseph Baur, an Associate Professor of Physiology from University of Pennsylvania, is a leading NAD researcher. His lab currently studies metabolic and signaling pathways by which nutrient intake can influence longevity, with a particular emphasis on NAD and mTOR.
In this interview Joseph breaks down all the questions I've had (and there's a lot) about the miracle molecule, NAD. Joseph helps me to understand why it's such an important molecule, how one can boost NAD levels, and what the data tells us about the different NAD precursors, NMN & NR.
As you may or not know there is quite a bit of debate about which NAD precursors work best, and if they even work at all to boost NAD levels in a way that will extend lifespan in humans. It was an absolute pleasure to have a non biased guest on the podcast to help clear things up and explain the cold, hard science. If you've seen the hundreds of podcasts out there talking about NAD, NMN, and NR and you're still confused - this episode should help.

#9 - Brian Culley - Cell Therapy & The Power of Pluripotent Stem Cells
Imagine being blind and you can see again. Imagine being paralyzed and you can move again. Imagine how amazing it would feel to be cured of cancer. Life changing would be an understatement. My guest today is the CEO of a company that is leading the way in cell therapy, a technology that can do just that; cure the blind, give movement to the paralyzed, and cure cancer. Brian Culley is the CEO of Lineage Cell Therapeutics, a publicly traded company on the NYSE. Stock ticker: LCTX
Lineage Cell Therapeutics has had some extremely promising results by using the power of Pluripotent stem cells. This was a fascinating and exciting conversation and Brian does a great job of explaining complicated subjects so the average person can understand.
If you're curious about the almost magic like power of Pluripotent stem cells, and all that they can do, than this is a must listen.
