In this episode, we dive deep into the science of muscle health with Dr. Chris Meletis, exploring why maintaining muscle mass is critical as we age and how MYOS MD's revolutionary supplement, Fortetropin, can play a pivotal role in combating muscle loss. Key Topics Covered: The Importance of Muscle for Longevity: Muscles act as the currency of longevity, influencing metabolism, physical functionality, myokine production, hormone balance, and overall musculoskeletal health. After age 40, muscle loss (sarcopenia) accelerates, with lean body mass decreasing by 1-2% annually and strength declining 1.5-5% per year. This impacts mobility, independence, and systemic health. Understanding Myostatin and Its Role: Myostatin is a natural protein that inhibits muscle growth, preventing excess muscle accumulation. While beneficial in early development, elevated myostatin levels with age, injury, or illness can exacerbate muscle wasting and hinder recovery. How MYOS MD's Fortetropin Helps: Fortetropin, derived from fertilized chicken egg yolk, is clinically proven to lower myostatin levels and support muscle protein synthesis. Benefits include: Increased muscle mass and strength. Reduced muscle breakdown. Enhanced recovery after injury or surgery. Clinical trials show an 18% increase in protein synthesis in older adults after just 21 days of supplementation without changes to diet or exercise. Applications of Fortetropin: Protecting lean body mass during weight loss, especially with GLP-1 treatments or bariatric surgery. Supporting recovery from injuries or surgeries where muscle atrophy is a concern. Enhancing physical performance for athletes and active individuals. Practical Insights and Dosing: Typical starting dose: 6.6 grams per day. Easy to incorporate into daily routines—mix with shakes, yogurt, or water. Pair with amino acids, CoQ10, and a protein-rich diet for optimal results. The Bigger Picture: Dr. Meletis explains how muscle health impacts metabolic function, bone density, and overall aging. Strategies to combat sarcopenia include resistance training, balanced nutrition, and innovative interventions like Fortetropin.

In this fascinating episode, we're joined by Dr. Dayan Goodenowe, a visionary neuroscientist and founder of Prodrome Sciences, to explore the groundbreaking potential of plasmalogens in restoring health and optimizing longevity. Dr. Goodenowe's work is transforming how we approach chronic conditions, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, autism, multiple sclerosis (MS), long COVID, and cardiovascular issues. We discuss the role of plasmalogens, Prodrome Sciences' advanced diagnostic tools, and how his Restorative Health Centre is making these innovations accessible for proactive health management. Episode Highlights 1. What Are Plasmalogens, and Why Are They Essential? Dr. Goodenowe explains the critical role of plasmalogens, unique lipids that maintain cell membrane integrity, support the immune system, and regulate oxidative stress. These lipids, particularly abundant in the brain and heart, are essential for neuron function, immune resilience, and cardiovascular health. Research shows that low levels of plasmalogens are linked to neurodegenerative diseases, immune dysfunction, and other chronic conditions, positioning plasmalogens as a key factor in preventive and restorative health. 2. Prodrome Scan: Personalized Health Insights Through Plasmalogen Measurement The Prodrome Scan, a pioneering health assessment tool developed by Dr. Goodenowe, measures plasmalogen levels to detect potential deficiencies early on. This scan provides practitioners and individuals with insights into the body's biochemical state, allowing them to address risks for conditions like cognitive decline, heart disease, and immune system issues. By identifying these risks ahead of time, the Prodrome Scan empowers users to take proactive steps to preserve health and delay or prevent disease onset. 3. How Plasmalogens Impact Neurodegenerative Conditions In neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, plasmalogen levels are typically depleted. Dr. Goodenowe explains how supplementing with plasmalogen precursors can protect neuron membranes, reduce oxidative damage, and improve brain function, potentially slowing or reversing disease progression. His products, Prodrome Glia (Omega-9) and Prodrome Neuro (Omega-3), are designed to target both glial cells and neurons, offering holistic support for cognitive and neurological resilience. 4. Advanced Imaging and Diagnosis at the Restorative Health Centre Dr. Goodenowe's Restorative Health Centre takes health assessment and intervention to a new level by offering advanced MRI imaging, which includes proprietary scans for brain health. This cutting-edge imaging allows for detailed visualization of brain structures, which, combined with plasmalogen measurements, provides unparalleled insights into brain health and early indicators of neurodegenerative conditions. By integrating these advanced diagnostic tools, the centre allows for early, precise intervention, tailored to each person's needs. 5.

In this insightful episode, we are joined by Dr. Mizyl Damayo, a holistic psychiatrist and founder of **Paradise Behavioral Health. Dr. Damayo specializes in precision psychiatry, an approach that goes beyond traditional psychiatric treatments to address the underlying causes of mental health disorders. She combines modern science with integrative, holistic therapies to deliver customized care tailored to each patient's unique needs. Key Topics Covered: * Precision Psychiatry: - What it is and why it's revolutionizing mental health treatment. *Nutrient Deficiencies and Toxicities: - How imbalances in essential vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients can contribute to mental health issues, and how correcting these imbalances leads to improved brain function. *Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT): The critical role hormones play in mood regulation, anxiety, and depression, and why balancing hormones is essential for mental wellness. *Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): - A deep dive into how HBOT supports brain function, helps repair neural damage, and promotes overall mental clarity and emotional balance. *Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): - How TMS is offering new hope for treatment-resistant depression by using magnetic pulses to stimulate brain regions involved in mood regulation. *The Limitations of Traditional Drug Therapy: - Why relying solely on medications to treat psychiatric conditions often fails to address the root causes of mental health issues, leading to incomplete or temporary relief. Ailments Dr. Damayo Treats: Dr. Damayo works with a wide range of psychiatric and neurological conditions, including: Depression** (including treatment-resistant depression) Anxiety disorders Bipolar disorder Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Chronic fatigue and brain fog Cognitive decline and memory issues Her precision psychiatry approach focuses on identifying the root causes of these disorders rather than just managing symptoms with medications. By uncovering nutrient deficiencies, toxicities (such as heavy metals), hormonal imbalances, and even neural damage, Dr. Damayo's approach offers a **whole-person** treatment plan that leads to more sustained mental and physical health. Why the Traditional Drug Approach Isn't Enough: For decades, the standard treatment for mental health disorders has been primarily **pharmaceutical drugs**. While these medications can provide symptom relief, they often fail to address the underlying causes of mental health conditions. Patients may experience side effects, dependence, or only partial relief. Dr. Damayo believes that while drugs can be part of the treatment, they should not be the only approach. By focusing on the root causes—such as nutrient imbalances, toxic buildup, and hormonal fluctuations—Dr. Damayo is able to offer a more comprehensive and effective solution. Her practice also emphasizes natural healing methods, such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy and ranscranial magnetic stimulation, which can significantly enhance brain health and recovery. Advanced Therapies Explained: *Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): - By delivering oxygen under high pressure, HBOT increases oxygen levels in the brain, which helps heal damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and promote neurogenesis (the growth of new brain cells). This therapy has been particularly beneficial for patients with cognitive issues, brain fog, and trauma-related conditions. * Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): - TMS is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment that stimulates specific areas of the brain using magnetic pulses. It has shown remarkable success in treating depression, especially in cases where antidepressants have failed. TMS is also being explored for conditions like anxiety, PTSD, and OCD. Dr. Damayo's Unique Approach: Dr. Damayo's **precision psychiatry** integrates lab testing to identify deficiencies, environmental toxins, and other imbalances that could be contributing to mental health issues. Her personalized treatment plans may include **nutrient supplementation**, **detoxification protocols**, **hormone replacement**, and advanced therapies like HBOT and TMS. This **holistic model** looks at both the **mental and physical** aspects of health, understanding that the two are deeply interconnected. Mental health is complex, and there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Dr. Mizyl Damayo's innovative approach offers hope to those who have struggled with traditional treatments by focusing on the root causes of psychiatric conditions. Her **holistic and personalized** methods are helping patients achieve not just symptom relief, but true healing and long-term wellness. For more information about Dr. Damayo's practice and her unique precision psychiatry approach, visit her website at [Paradise Behavioral Health](https://www.paradisebehavioral.com/drdamayo/).

In this weeks episode I interview founder of the The Quiet Mind Foundation Dr Marvin Berman Ph.D., C.B.T., he is specialised in Photobiomodulation psychology and EEG Biofeedback expert. Alzheimers is set to become one of the biggest health issues Key Projections: World Health Organization (WHO): Estimates suggest that the number of people living with dementia, including Alzheimer's disease, will reach 65.7 million by 2030. Alzheimer's Association: Projections indicate that the number of Americans age 65 and older with Alzheimer's disease may grow from 6.2 million in 2021 to 8.5 million by 2030. Global Prevalence: By 2030, it is expected that there will be around 76 million people worldwide living with dementia, primarily Alzheimer's disease. These estimates highlight the growing public health challenge posed by Alzheimer's disease as populations age. Efforts in research, treatment, and prevention are critical to addressing this impending increase in cases. In this episode we fight back against this coming tide. We discuss the history of PBM and it's application in a wide range of neurodegenerative diseases from Alzheimers and dementia to Parkinsons, stroke and aneurysm to traumatic brain injury to brain fog and the effects of long covid and beyond. If you have a brain and you want to preserve it then this is a must listen to episode. We now have the technology and the research to reverse cognitive decline, no longer is the diagnosis of one of these terrible diseases, a death sentence. We can proactively address many of the underlying issues. We discuss the thesis of the 36 holes in the roof approach that Dr Dale Bredesen (a previous guest on the show) teaches in addressing cognitive decline and how PBM covers off 34 of these and how combined with lifestyle interventions and supplementation etc we have the power to save our brains.

Ever since the book "Lifespan" came out from Dr David Sinclair, everyone and their dog and has been supplementing with nicotinamide mononucleotide and nicotinamide riboside and an effort to increase our levels in the body.NAD is essential to life. No energy production can happen without NAD. NAD Also decreases as we age so the question has always been should we and can we increase our NAD levels. As usual in biology it's very complicated and as the science has developed we have learned many new detailed insights. Here is an update on the latest in that science. In this episode of "Pushing The Limits" I have the wonderful privilege of interviewing one of the world's leading researchers in NAD metabolism, sirtuin genes and metabolic health Professor Joseph Baur. Professor at the Perelman School of Medicine of the University of Pennsylvania, How can you increase NAD+ levels? And do higher NAD+ levels really lead to better metabolic health? What does the research say on their benefits for Longevity. We cover this critical pathway in-depth looking what the research is saying and what it currently isn't and what we have still to learn. We look into mice studies and then also where the human research is at. We cover the salvage pathway as well as the Preiss Handler pathway. The possible role of the Microbiome and in NAD metabolism. We also discussed the various NAD pools and why the mitochondria maybe a key in a NAD pool. We discuss the transporter for NAD into the mitochondria that was recently discovered by Prof Baur and other labs. We discuss also the possible risk factors and how we can mitigate these. We look at where the research is at in relation to cancer and NAD Metabolism. The role of CD 38 as a voracious consumer of in NAD and how lowering CD38 in the body may be even more beneficial than taking the precursor enzymes. We discuss also why CD38 increases as we age and what we can do about it and the role of senolytics. How we can increase the NAMPT enzyme so we recycle more of our NAD And whether we need to support our methylation donors when we are supplementing with the likes of NMB and NR. If you are fascinated by longevity science and want to know how you can optimise your health moving forward then this is the episode for you!

In this weeks episode of "Pushing the Limits" I interview one of my idols in the world of health optimisation medicine, hyperbaric oxygen therapy and cellular health Dr Scott Sherr, a repeat guest to the show. In this episode we go deep into the benefits of: Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, what it does, the pathways it affects from: Stem cell production to inflammation downregulation to lymphatic support to angiogenesis We discuss the health issues this powerful therapy can benefit We discuss protocols, the different types of chambers and pressures and how to build a foundational health protocol around the person's treatment. We also do a deep dive into one of my favorite research subjects at the moment - Methylene Blue and it's myriad of effects in the body and how it may help support: energy production by bypassing the first two complexes in the electron transport chain in the mitochondria what ailments it may help with from alzheimers and cognitive declines to TBI to UTI's to depression to athletic performance to carbon monoxide poisoning, mitochondrial dysfunction to malaria and it's use as the world's first antibiotic and more We dive into it's long history and where the current science stands on this exciting compound. We look at how it has a biphasic response curve and how it works as both an antioxidant and pro oxidant and why pharmaceutical grade is crucial. Then we dive into the GABA system and how it affects recovery and sleep and formulations that support this system besides taking actual GABA that alone doesn't cross into the blood brain barrier. We also discuss Dr Scott's and Dr Ted Achacoso's non profit educational arm https://homehope.org/ where doctors and practitioners can advance their learning in the holobiont. They provide the framework for doctors and health care practitioners to learn how to optimize their clients' health, rather than treat disease. Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe) was founded in the Philippines by Dr. Theodore Achacoso after realizing that illness medicine, in which he is trained and excels as an interventional neuroradiologist and pharmacologist, was reactive, interventional, and could benefit from an entirely different approach: one that optimized health rather than treated disease. Over several years, he became an expert in the intricacies and power of metabolomic, gut, and hormone optimization, along with the additional pillars of what became HOMe. How to find Dr Scott and his work You can visit Dr Scott's hyperbaric oxygen therapy clinics at https://www.hyperbaricmedicalsolutions.com Visit his supplement company Troscriptions where they have formulations including methylene Blue among others here You can use the code LISA His hyperbaric educational company One Base Health here Transcription products from Dr Scotts company are not available for New Zealanders unfortunately however if you are interested in getting methylene Blue please reach out to us directly at [email protected] BIO Dr. Scott Sherr is a Board Certified Internal Medicine Physician Certified to Practice Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe) and a specialist in Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). He graduated Summa Cum Laude from UCLA as an undergraduate and Magna Cum Laude with Alpha Omega Alpha distinction from the University of Maryland Medical School. Dr. Scott is the founder of HOMe-SF, the first HOMe clinic in the United States, and is also the Chief Operating Officer of Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMe/HOPe)–USA, a nonprofit education company. The HOMe/HOPe essential certification (plus two advanced modules in Peptides and Cannabis) teaches doctors and healthcare practitioners how to detect and correct the root causes of health, not disease. In addition, Dr. Scott is also COO of Smarter Not Harder, the for-profit arm of HOMe/HOPe. SNH is the company behind Troscriptions, a line of buccal troches that are Democratizing Enlightenment by addressing the bottlenecks along the path to optimal health. They have several products on the market including Blue Cannatine, Just Blue, Tro Calm, and Tro Zzz Dr. Scott's clinical practice includes HOMe as its foundation plus an integrative approach to hyperbaric oxygen therapy that includes cutting-edge and dynamic HBOT protocols, comprehensive laboratory testing (using the HOMe framework), targeted supplementation, personal practices, synergistic technologies (new and ancient), and more.

In this weeks episode we dive into a topic that is close to my heart after watching the pain and suffering my mum went through and the complications and difficulties she has had after falling in her bedroom one day and breaking her hip. This experience of course led me deep into the research on osteoporosis and in todays video/podcast we cover What osteoporosis is and what osteopenia is How is it diagnosed What drugs are used to to treat it - the good, the bad and the ugly of these What exercises you can do to stave off osteoporosis and reverse bone loss What nutrient deficiencies or diseases can lead to osteoporosis What supplements can reverse and or slow bone loss The role of different hormones in osteopororsis The role of nutrition in osteoporosis What medications can cause osteoporosis What lifestyle factors can lead to osteoporosis Who is more at risk for osteoporosis. General info on osteoporosis Loss of Bone Mass Density Dexa Scan T-score -1.0 to -2.5 is Osteopenia T-score less than -2.5 is Osteoporosis Bone is 40-50% inorganic component (hydroxyapatite), 10-15% water and 35% organic component(protein). 90% of the organic component is collagen Type 1 and the remaining 10% non-collagenous proteins Osteoblasts-formation of bone, secrete alkaline phosphatase to create sites for calcium and phosphate deposition. Osteoclasts-bone resorption, secretes acid phosphatase which unfixes the calcium Osteocytes are osteoblasts which are responsible for homeostasis of oxygen and mineral levels. Function: Supports the body, protects the organs, produces blood cells, and stores minerals and fats. Collagen, the protein that gives bones a framework for strength and flexibility Calcium-phosphate mineral complexes, that fill in the gaps between the collagen frame work, making bones hard and strong Living bone cells that remove and replace weakened sections of bone KoACT-Calcium collagen chelate Animal Study-8 weeks 4 groups No supplement KoACT-increased bone density by 3.5% 10x KoACT-increased bone strength by 10% Calcium and Collagen supplement increase bone strength by 1% Study 39 women 2 groups-12 months Post-menopausal women. 5 g of CC(calcium-collagen chelate) which contains 500 mg of elemental calcium and 200 IU Vitamin D 500 mg of calcium and 200 IU of Vitamin D The loss of whole body BMD in women taking CC was substantially lower than that of the control group at twelve months KoACT improves bone synthesis and reduces bone loss KoACT counteracts the natural process of bone loss in post-menopausal women KoACT improves bone mineral density KoACT improves bone mineral density better than calcium in post-menopausal women KoACT improves total body bone mineral density significantly better than calcium in just three months Biomarkers for bone formation were increased significantly with KoACT KoACT improves biomarkers for bone formation, better than calcium.

In this weeks episode of "Pushing the Limits", I had the amazing opportunity to be a guest on the Fit Father Project Podcast with Dr. Anthony Balduzzi. In this uplifting conversation, I share my journey from professional ultra-endurance athlete to health optimisation, longevity, anti-aging, and high-performance expert. We delve into the incredible journey of determination and resilience that mum and I have been on. After my mother suffered a massive aneurysm and was told she would never have any quality of life again, I was catapulted from the world of sports into the world of health. Refusing to accept the prognosis. I dove deep into the research and spent the following years helping mum rehabilitate herself. She went from having hardly any function to having complete independence, including getting her driver's license back, walking up to 5 km a day, and going to the gym five days a week. The story doesn't end there. After all of that progress, mum was hit with a terminal cancer diagnosis and given just weeks to live. Again, not willing to give up, I plunged back into the research and devised a comprehensive protocol using everything from the science around the metabolic approach to cancer to peptides, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, a strict keto diet, and more. The result? My mum is now cancer-free, while she is still dealing with a few issues she is loving life and enjoying her time as a grandmother at age 82! My conversation with Dr. Anthony highlights the importance of mindset and pushing through mental and physical limits. I hope my story inspires you to never give up, no matter what you are facing. Key Takeaways: Mindset is crucial in overcoming challenges and pushing through limits. Starting small and setting achievable goals can lead to accomplishing bigger goals. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be beneficial for brain repair and recovery. Advocating for proper medical care and resources is essential in critical situations. Persistence and dedication are key in helping a loved one recover from a serious health condition. Researching and implementing various treatments can lead to miraculous recoveries. A supportive team and advocating for your needs are crucial in navigating the medical system. Learning and staying on the cutting edge of wellness can lead to optimal health and longevity. Dr Anthony Balduzzi a man who has helped hundreds of thousands of people all around the world with his communities aimed at whole person health and fitness. He is driven by a passion to help families in particular. At age 9 he lost his own father to cancer (he was just 42) and this fundamentally changed Anthony's mission in life.

In this weeks episode of "Pushing the Limits", the topic of todays show is Hormone Optimisation for men and women. We dive deep into the myths surrounding hormone optimisation and the benefits of it and delivery methods and what to avoid. We discuss the obesity epidemic and it's influence on hormones and our exposure to estrogens in the environment and the affects this can have. We also discuss my favorite topic peptides - discussing Jay's favorites for uses from weight loss to cognitive function to immune support to mitochondrial function. You can download the peptide cheat sheet and his course here BIO Jay Campbell was a competitive HS athlete in Baseball, Soccer and Basketball, Jay played collegiately for Georgia Southwestern University While playing competitive men's league basketball at 29 in Southern California, he was kicked in the testicles leading him to a miraculous journey of self exploration where he found the wonderful and transformative power of therapeutic testosterone. Over the next 15 years, Jay taught himself everything there was to know about using therapeutic testosterone via the experience of multiple delivery systems, consulting as a patient with various doctors, interpreting scientific studies and massive individual self experimentation and tinkering. He became his own meticulous lab rat and bio-hacker in a world where science and clinical expertise was deeply limited if not non-existent outside of the body building and performance enhancement circles. In 2010 through 2014 Jay competed in the inaugural men's physique division of the NPC where he won multiple first place overall trophies. At the encouragement of his peers, friends and professionals who marveled at his physique and his comprehensive knowledge and mastery of human performance optimization, he wrote his first book The TRT MANual in 2014. The TRT MANual and his second book on Hormonal Optimization The TOT Bible are the #1 5 STAR rated books of all time on Hormonal Optimization. He is the author now of 7 books and runs the "Jay Campbell Podcast" a hugely successful show in the states. https://jaycampbell.com/ Personalised Health Optimisation Consulting with Lisa Tamati Lisa offers solution focused coaching sessions to help you find the right answers to your challenges.

This week I interview longevity queen, Dr Sandra Kaufmann the author of the Kaufmann Protocol and Aging Solutions. Dr Sandra is the head of department of Anesthesiology at and just happens to be obsessed with longevity science. What started out as her own search to slow and reverse ageing turned into a comprehensive system that allows people to personalize their own regime to their particular set of problems or needs and goals. This ingenious system has revolutionized my approach and makes it so simple to construct a very personalized approach. There are innumerable things a person can read concerning aging, but at the most basic level, organisms age because their component cells age. We are all made of cells or cell products and as they falter, so do we. Because cell aging is multifactorial, the organization of these concepts is important. The Protocol organizes these various theories of cellular aging into seven categories or tenets. The information in this podcast discusses these concepts in the language of science. The following seven tenets encompass all of the presently known modes of cellular aging. Based on this organizational scheme, Dr Kaufman then developed a strategy where aging is curtailed in every category. The 7 Tenets are as follows: DNA alterations (telomere attrition, epigenetics) Mitochondrial failure Pathways (Sirtuins, AMP Kinase, mTOR) Quality control (DNA & Protein repair mechanisms and Autophagy) Immune and inflammatory systems Individual cell needs (Senescent, Stem cells) Waste management (Glycation, lipofuscin) Dr Kaufman explains her rating system for various longevity molecules and how to utilize these in your protocols. We also discuss many of the supplements and adjuvants that Dr Kaufmann recommends for each of these tenets and we look at other cutting edge regenerative modalities like Exosomes. Stem cells are fantastic in terms of longevity, however there are limitations. Exogenous stem cells are currently not available in this country. Meanwhile, autologous stem cells are only as healthy as the person they which they come. Exosomes, on the other hand, constitute up to 80% of the benefits seen with stem cells and are available through Dr Kaufmann in the United States at least, in addition to being less expensive. I highly recommend Dr Kaufman's books, these are major reference book that will serve those looking to optimise their health, performance and longevity.

Turning to medicine, she received her medical Degree at the University of Maryland, and completed a residency and fellowship at Johns Hopkins in the field of pediatric anesthesiology. For the last five years she has been the Chief of Pediatric Anesthesia at the Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital, a nationally recognized center of excellence. Most recently, she was recognized as "Best in Medicine" by the American Health Council. Her avid interest in the science of anti-aging began many years ago as an intense hobby. Utilizing her knowledge in cell biology, human pharmacology and physiology, this hobby has now become a main focus. The project represents years of non-clinical research leading to the first, ever, comprehensive theory of aging.
