00:00What's up everybody? Today we're very What's up everybody? Today we're very excited to have our guest here who's excited to have our guest here who's excited to have our guest here who's going to uh teach us all about why my going to uh teach us all about why my going to uh teach us all about why my sperm doesn't swim and how we can live sperm doesn't swim and how we can live sperm doesn't swim and how we can live till we're 100red years old and most till we're 100red years old and most till we're 100red years old and most importantly why actually this is what importantly why actually this is what importantly why actually this is what I'm really excited about. Why people who I'm really excited about. Why people who I'm really excited about. Why people who live to 100 are full of with their live to 100 are full of with their live to 100 are full of with their advice. I thought this was so good cuz advice. I thought this was so good cuz advice. I thought this was so good cuz I've had this I think there's like I've had this I think there's like I've had this I think there's like contrarian in me. So whenever I hear the contrarian in me. So whenever I hear the contrarian in me. So whenever I hear the hundred-y old people going, I smoke a hundred-y old people going, I smoke a hundred-y old people going, I smoke a pack a day and I drink whiskey and I'm pack a day and I drink whiskey and I'm pack a day and I drink whiskey and I'm like this ising bull and I'm watching like this ising bull and I'm watching like this ising bull and I'm watching you in this interview and this was so you in this interview and this was so you in this interview and this was so validating. You're like you say validating. You're like you say validating. You're like you say something to Oh, by the way, it's Piria. something to Oh, by the way, it's Piria. something to Oh, by the way, it's Piria. Oh, what's up? Oh, what's up? Oh, what's up? So, so you she says thing it was just so So, so you she says thing it was just so So, so you she says thing it was just so validating. You're like, uh, yeah. Yeah. validating. You're like, uh, yeah. Yeah. validating. You're like, uh, yeah. Yeah. These people are like super freaks in These people are like super freaks in These people are like super freaks in terms of their ability to live long. terms of their ability to live long. terms of their ability to live long. They're not doing anything specific. They're not doing anything specific. They're not doing anything specific. >> Survivorship bias. >> Survivorship bias. >> Survivorship bias. >> Yeah. So, it's like it's like LeBron >> Yeah. So, it's like it's like LeBron >> Yeah. So, it's like it's like LeBron telling you how to pick up girls at a telling you how to pick up girls at a telling you how to pick up girls at a nightclub, nightclub, nightclub, >> right? It's like I don't need your >> right? It's like I don't need your >> right? It's like I don't need your advice. I need the guy who's like 56 advice. I need the guy who's like 56 advice. I need the guy who's like 56 who's getting laid every single night. who's getting laid every single night. who's getting laid every single night. Can you break down why people who live Can you break down why people who live Can you break down why people who live to 100 are the last people we should get
01:00to 100 are the last people we should get to 100 are the last people we should get advice from? advice from? advice from? >> So genes don't play much of a role in >> So genes don't play much of a role in >> So genes don't play much of a role in how long you live up until about 80. how long you live up until about 80. how long you live up until about 80. >> So it really turns out what you do >> So it really turns out what you do >> So it really turns out what you do matters a lot. Plus luck. We could talk matters a lot. Plus luck. We could talk matters a lot. Plus luck. We could talk about where luck factors in. But for about where luck factors in. But for about where luck factors in. But for those people that make it to 90s, those people that make it to 90s, those people that make it to 90s, hundreds, they're called centinarians hundreds, they're called centinarians hundreds, they're called centinarians and then super centinarians. Um it's and then super centinarians. Um it's and then super centinarians. Um it's virtually all genetic. And what every virtually all genetic. And what every virtually all genetic. And what every study of these people has demonstrated study of these people has demonstrated study of these people has demonstrated is they live long despite what they do, is they live long despite what they do, is they live long despite what they do, not because of what they do. And to your not because of what they do. And to your not because of what they do. And to your point, they are on average more likely point, they are on average more likely point, they are on average more likely to smoke, more likely to drink, less to smoke, more likely to drink, less to smoke, more likely to drink, less likely to exercise, and more likely to likely to exercise, and more likely to likely to exercise, and more likely to eat junk food. eat junk food. eat junk food. >> Wow. >> Wow. >> Wow. >> So all these people in like Italy who >> So all these people in like Italy who >> So all these people in like Italy who are like, "Yeah, you just eat pasta once are like, "Yeah, you just eat pasta once are like, "Yeah, you just eat pasta once a day." It's like, no, you just got some a day." It's like, no, you just got some a day." It's like, no, you just got some good jeans. good jeans. good jeans. >> You got great jeans. >> You got great jeans. >> You got great jeans. >> So does that account for blue zones as >> So does that account for blue zones as >> So does that account for blue zones as well? well? well? >> Yeah, the blue zones is a totally >> Yeah, the blue zones is a totally >> Yeah, the blue zones is a totally interesting and different issue going interesting and different issue going interesting and different issue going on. Um, this is a very controversial on. Um, this is a very controversial on. Um, this is a very controversial topic and I I fall on one side. topic and I I fall on one side. topic and I I fall on one side. >> Wrong place to do it. >> Wrong place to do it. >> Wrong place to do it. >> Yeah. Um, so I actually think the whole >> Yeah. Um, so I actually think the whole >> Yeah. Um, so I actually think the whole blue zone thing is a bit of a myth. blue zone thing is a bit of a myth. blue zone thing is a bit of a myth. >> Talk that [ __ ]
02:00>> Talk that [ __ ] >> Talk that [ __ ] >> And I think >> And I think >> And I think >> and ice baths, right? >> and ice baths, right? >> and ice baths, right? >> It depends what you're doing them for. >> It depends what you're doing them for. >> It depends what you're doing them for. >> To look cool with your shirt off. >> To look cool with your shirt off. >> To look cool with your shirt off. >> Oh, then it's very good. >> Oh, then it's very good. >> Oh, then it's very good. >> That is the ice bath, right?

Okay, keep going. Keep going. Blue zones. So, so a big problem with Blue zones. So, so a big problem with Blue zones. So, so a big problem with the blue zone things is the the the sort the blue zone things is the the the sort the blue zone things is the the the sort of recordkeeping of how long people live of recordkeeping of how long people live of recordkeeping of how long people live and birth certificate stuff. There's and birth certificate stuff. There's and birth certificate stuff. There's like a lack of birth certificate like a lack of birth certificate like a lack of birth certificate integrity. There are a lot of places integrity. There are a lot of places integrity. There are a lot of places that reportedly had very high degrees of that reportedly had very high degrees of that reportedly had very high degrees of longevity. And if you follow on the longevity. And if you follow on the longevity. And if you follow on the x-axis like when did birth certificates x-axis like when did birth certificates x-axis like when did birth certificates get introduced like it vanished from get introduced like it vanished from get introduced like it vanished from longevity longevity longevity >> making up how old they are. >> making up how old they are. >> making up how old they are. >> Yeah. A lot a lot of that is going on. >> Yeah. A lot a lot of that is going on. >> Yeah. A lot a lot of that is going on. And then the truth of the matter is And then the truth of the matter is And then the truth of the matter is there's this whole kind of there's this whole kind of there's this whole kind of >> people don't understand causality >> people don't understand causality >> people don't understand causality sometimes. So if you sometimes. So if you sometimes. So if you went into the gym and you saw a whole went into the gym and you saw a whole went into the gym and you saw a whole bunch of super fit people running on bunch of super fit people running on bunch of super fit people running on treadmills, treadmills, treadmills, >> you would think that >> you would think that >> you would think that >> you could be lulled into the belief that
03:00>> you could be lulled into the belief that >> you could be lulled into the belief that Lululemon tights make you fit, Lululemon tights make you fit, Lululemon tights make you fit, >> right? You could be lulled into the >> right? You could be lulled into the >> right? You could be lulled into the belief that uh fancy blue over theear belief that uh fancy blue over theear belief that uh fancy blue over theear Apple headphones are good for muscle Apple headphones are good for muscle Apple headphones are good for muscle mass. Like you you could you could mass. Like you you could you could mass. Like you you could you could create a story and not realize no, it's create a story and not realize no, it's create a story and not realize no, it's actually all the exercise they're doing actually all the exercise they're doing actually all the exercise they're doing that's helping that's helping that's helping >> and people who exercise also happen to >> and people who exercise also happen to >> and people who exercise also happen to wear Lululemon tights and Apple Pod, you wear Lululemon tights and Apple Pod, you wear Lululemon tights and Apple Pod, you know, whatever AirPods and blah blah know, whatever AirPods and blah blah know, whatever AirPods and blah blah blah blah. So, so the whole thing is blah blah. So, so the whole thing is blah blah. So, so the whole thing is just, you know, we tend to infer too just, you know, we tend to infer too just, you know, we tend to infer too much causality from a lot of that stuff. much causality from a lot of that stuff. much causality from a lot of that stuff. some of the things that are, you know, some of the things that are, you know, some of the things that are, you know, assigned to the blue zones make sense. assigned to the blue zones make sense. assigned to the blue zones make sense. Like, does eating, you know, healthier Like, does eating, you know, healthier Like, does eating, you know, healthier food make more sense than eating junk food make more sense than eating junk food make more sense than eating junk food? Of course it does. But, but to food? Of course it does. But, but to food? Of course it does. But, but to think that there are these really think that there are these really think that there are these really specific blue zones and we need to kind specific blue zones and we need to kind specific blue zones and we need to kind of go and figure out everything they're of go and figure out everything they're of go and figure out everything they're doing because some of the ideas that are doing because some of the ideas that are doing because some of the ideas that are proposed are like exercise less because proposed are like exercise less because proposed are like exercise less because people in blue zones don't exercise people in blue zones don't exercise people in blue zones don't exercise much. And again, I just think that on much. And again, I just think that on much. And again, I just think that on its face, a lot of that stuff just its face, a lot of that stuff just its face, a lot of that stuff just doesn't make sense.
04:00doesn't make sense. doesn't make sense. >> Yeah. Interesting. Okay. So, wait, the >> Yeah. Interesting. Okay. So, wait, the >> Yeah. Interesting. Okay. So, wait, the sauna cold punch thing. Can you parse sauna cold punch thing. Can you parse sauna cold punch thing. Can you parse those two things? And can you explain those two things? And can you explain those two things? And can you explain why cold plunging is kind of [ __ ] why cold plunging is kind of [ __ ] why cold plunging is kind of [ __ ] >> Well, I don't I wouldn't I wouldn't say >> Well, I don't I wouldn't I wouldn't say >> Well, I don't I wouldn't I wouldn't say it's [ __ ] It's just not it's not it's [ __ ] It's just not it's not it's [ __ ] It's just not it's not going to make you live longer. Okay. going to make you live longer. Okay. going to make you live longer. Okay. >> There's no there's no evidence at least >> There's no there's no evidence at least >> There's no there's no evidence at least that sauna is going to make you live that sauna is going to make you live that sauna is going to make you live longer. Um pardon me, pardon me. Cold longer. Um pardon me, pardon me. Cold longer. Um pardon me, pardon me. Cold plunge. Um plunge. Um plunge. Um >> can I can I ask one thing about cold >> can I can I ask one thing about cold >> can I can I ask one thing about cold plunge? plunge? plunge? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> And I know nothing. I'm going to be like >> And I know nothing. I'm going to be like >> And I know nothing. I'm going to be like the most ignorant person in the the most ignorant person in the the most ignorant person in the audience. This is my experience in doing audience. This is my experience in doing audience. This is my experience in doing it. it. it. >> I wonder if it is just Have you ever >> I wonder if it is just Have you ever >> I wonder if it is just Have you ever gone like skydiving? gone like skydiving? gone like skydiving? >> No. Have you ever gone bungee jumping? >> No. Have you ever gone bungee jumping? >> No. Have you ever gone bungee jumping? >> No. >> No. >> No. >> He's trying to live forever, >> He's trying to live forever, >> He's trying to live forever, >> but then he's also like swimming with >> but then he's also like swimming with >> but then he's also like swimming with sharks to Catalina Island. So, I don't sharks to Catalina Island. So, I don't sharks to Catalina Island. So, I don't know if I believe 100% live forever. know if I believe 100% live forever. know if I believe 100% live forever. But, uh, okay. Sometimes you do these But, uh, okay. Sometimes you do these But, uh, okay. Sometimes you do these scary things and then when you survive scary things and then when you survive scary things and then when you survive them, there's this like release of them, there's this like release of them, there's this like release of dopamine and it's a positive dopamine dopamine and it's a positive dopamine dopamine and it's a positive dopamine and the positive dopamine makes you feel and the positive dopamine makes you feel and the positive dopamine makes you feel amazing in the moment. So, in 60 seconds amazing in the moment. So, in 60 seconds amazing in the moment. So, in 60 seconds without skydiving or bungee jumping, without skydiving or bungee jumping, without skydiving or bungee jumping, yep, yep, yep, >> I get a positive dopamine that makes me >> I get a positive dopamine that makes me >> I get a positive dopamine that makes me feel amazing. Is it just the quickest
05:00feel amazing. Is it just the quickest feel amazing. Is it just the quickest way to feel good? way to feel good? way to feel good? >> Uh, first of all, that's actually a >> Uh, first of all, that's actually a >> Uh, first of all, that's actually a great insight and that's absolutely one great insight and that's absolutely one great insight and that's absolutely one of the two pieces of the benefit of cold of the two pieces of the benefit of cold of the two pieces of the benefit of cold plunge. So, uh, it turns out that our plunge. So, uh, it turns out that our plunge. So, uh, it turns out that our bodies bodies bodies want to preserve a dopamine homeostasis, want to preserve a dopamine homeostasis, want to preserve a dopamine homeostasis, which just means a balance. So anytime which just means a balance. So anytime which just means a balance. So anytime we have something that induces a little we have something that induces a little we have something that induces a little bit of discomfort, the body will try to bit of discomfort, the body will try to bit of discomfort, the body will try to compensate by making more of the sort of compensate by making more of the sort of compensate by making more of the sort of positive neurotransmitters, including positive neurotransmitters, including positive neurotransmitters, including dopamine. dopamine. dopamine. >> And that's why exercise, by the way, the >> And that's why exercise, by the way, the >> And that's why exercise, by the way, the pain you experience when you go out for pain you experience when you go out for pain you experience when you go out for a hard run. So, so, so cold immersion a hard run. So, so, so cold immersion a hard run. So, so, so cold immersion has been demonstrated to improve mood, has been demonstrated to improve mood, has been demonstrated to improve mood, although it turns out not in everybody. although it turns out not in everybody. although it turns out not in everybody. So there are a subset of people who just So there are a subset of people who just So there are a subset of people who just experienced angry experienced angry experienced angry >> and they don't get any of the positive >> and they don't get any of the positive >> and they don't get any of the positive from it. from it. from it. >> So you get nothing when you hop out. >> So you get nothing when you hop out. >> So you get nothing when you hop out. >> I don't like cold plunging. I get out >> I don't like cold plunging. I get out >> I don't like cold plunging. I get out and I go I'm cold. My feet are my feet and I go I'm cold. My feet are my feet and I go I'm cold. My feet are my feet are tingly and as that's it. are tingly and as that's it. are tingly and as that's it. >> But I do love saunas.
06:00>> But I do love saunas. >> But I do love saunas. >> So and we we'll talk about sauna in a >> So and we we'll talk about sauna in a >> So and we we'll talk about sauna in a second. The other thing that cold plunge second. The other thing that cold plunge second. The other thing that cold plunge does is it reduces inflammation. And does is it reduces inflammation. And does is it reduces inflammation. And there are times when that's a good thing there are times when that's a good thing there are times when that's a good thing to do and there's times when you don't to do and there's times when you don't to do and there's times when you don't want to do that. So it turns out if your want to do that. So it turns out if your want to do that. So it turns out if your ex if your goal of resistance training ex if your goal of resistance training ex if your goal of resistance training is to add muscle mass, you actually is to add muscle mass, you actually is to add muscle mass, you actually don't want to get into a cold plunge don't want to get into a cold plunge don't want to get into a cold plunge after after after >> because the inflammation is actually >> because the inflammation is actually >> because the inflammation is actually bringing blood to those. bringing blood to those. bringing blood to those. >> Well, the inflammation is part of the >> Well, the inflammation is part of the >> Well, the inflammation is part of the repair process and it's the repair repair process and it's the repair repair process and it's the repair process that adds size and strength. So process that adds size and strength. So process that adds size and strength. So um if a person is saying, hey, I want a um if a person is saying, hey, I want a um if a person is saying, hey, I want a cold plunge, but I'm also I don't want cold plunge, but I'm also I don't want cold plunge, but I'm also I don't want it to interfere with my strength it to interfere with my strength it to interfere with my strength training, then they they kind of have training, then they they kind of have training, then they they kind of have to, you know, we don't know exactly how to, you know, we don't know exactly how to, you know, we don't know exactly how much separation, but I would say like much separation, but I would say like much separation, but I would say like don't do it on the day of. you know, to don't do it on the day of. you know, to don't do it on the day of. you know, to be safe. be safe. be safe. >> So, it shouldn't be this like religious >> So, it shouldn't be this like religious >> So, it shouldn't be this like religious thing that people are doing every single thing that people are doing every single thing that people are doing every single day. day. day. >> I mean, I don't think anything should be >> I mean, I don't think anything should be >> I mean, I don't think anything should be a religious thing we're doing every day, a religious thing we're doing every day, a religious thing we're doing every day, but if you're doing it every day but if you're doing it every day but if you're doing it every day thinking it's going to make you thinking it's going to make you thinking it's going to make you whatever, give you immortality, whatever, give you immortality, whatever, give you immortality, it's not. And if you're doing it every it's not. And if you're doing it every it's not. And if you're doing it every day, then it might have some negative day, then it might have some negative day, then it might have some negative consequences, certainly with respect to
07:00consequences, certainly with respect to consequences, certainly with respect to resistance training. Um, but again, for resistance training. Um, but again, for resistance training. Um, but again, for some people, like for me, the mood some people, like for me, the mood some people, like for me, the mood effect is really profound. effect is really profound. effect is really profound. >> Oh, it's amazing. I I absolutely love >> Oh, it's amazing. I I absolutely love >> Oh, it's amazing. I I absolutely love cold plunging. cold plunging. cold plunging. >> Yeah. Get in an argument with your wife, >> Yeah. Get in an argument with your wife, >> Yeah. Get in an argument with your wife, hop in a cold plunge, get out, you're hop in a cold plunge, get out, you're hop in a cold plunge, get out, you're like, "My marriage is perfect." like, "My marriage is perfect." like, "My marriage is perfect." >> What were we even arguing about? >> What were we even arguing about? >> What were we even arguing about? >> So, yeah. No, I think I think um and the >> So, yeah. No, I think I think um and the >> So, yeah. No, I think I think um and the other thing that's a little frustrating other thing that's a little frustrating other thing that's a little frustrating is nobody knows the exact dose response. is nobody knows the exact dose response. is nobody knows the exact dose response. So, like So, like So, like >> like how long you should be >> like how long you should be >> like how long you should be >> and what temperature, right? So, >> and what temperature, right? So, >> and what temperature, right? So, >> it just feels like we're competing to go >> it just feels like we're competing to go >> it just feels like we're competing to go colder. colder. colder. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Like Joe just calls me a [ __ ] every >> Like Joe just calls me a [ __ ] every >> Like Joe just calls me a [ __ ] every time. I'm like, "Dude, it's if it's not time. I'm like, "Dude, it's if it's not time. I'm like, "Dude, it's if it's not 60°, I'm not getting in that [ __ ] 60°, I'm not getting in that [ __ ] 60°, I'm not getting in that [ __ ] thing." But I do feel like guys are thing." But I do feel like guys are thing." But I do feel like guys are going, "Okay, I could be at 37." Dove going, "Okay, I could be at 37." Dove going, "Okay, I could be at 37." Dove was trying to be at I forget what it was trying to be at I forget what it was trying to be at I forget what it was, maybe 45 for 2 minutes. But if was, maybe 45 for 2 minutes. But if was, maybe 45 for 2 minutes. But if you're not really getting any different you're not really getting any different you're not really getting any different Yeah. I mean, I think I I've tried to Yeah. I mean, I think I I've tried to Yeah. I mean, I think I I've tried to figure this out so many which ways. figure this out so many which ways. figure this out so many which ways. Actually, this would be a great question Actually, this would be a great question Actually, this would be a great question for me to put to one of the research AI for me to put to one of the research AI for me to put to one of the research AI engines and see if they can just pull engines and see if they can just pull engines and see if they can just pull all the data because a lot of the all the data because a lot of the all the data because a lot of the studies will do long immersion at studies will do long immersion at studies will do long immersion at modestly cold temperatures. So, 55° for
08:00modestly cold temperatures. So, 55° for modestly cold temperatures. So, 55° for 30 minutes, right? 30 minutes, right? 30 minutes, right? >> But I don't want to take 30 minutes. I'm >> But I don't want to take 30 minutes. I'm >> But I don't want to take 30 minutes. I'm not going to do that. So, I got it's got not going to do that. So, I got it's got not going to do that. So, I got it's got to be colder. Yeah. to be colder. Yeah. to be colder. Yeah. >> So, I I mean I don't I don't have the >> So, I I mean I don't I don't have the >> So, I I mean I don't I don't have the answer. I do 42° for 10 minutes. answer. I do 42° for 10 minutes. answer. I do 42° for 10 minutes. >> You're in there for 10 minutes. >> You're in there for 10 minutes. >> You're in there for 10 minutes. >> Yeah. And I mean I don't know. Is that >> Yeah. And I mean I don't know. Is that >> Yeah. And I mean I don't know. Is that better than doing 35° for 5 minutes? I better than doing 35° for 5 minutes? I better than doing 35° for 5 minutes? I have no idea. Um but the reason I can't have no idea. Um but the reason I can't have no idea. Um but the reason I can't keep it at 35 is my wife won't get in keep it at 35 is my wife won't get in keep it at 35 is my wife won't get in it. And so then I'm just going to be it. And so then I'm just going to be it. And so then I'm just going to be turning the temperature up and down and turning the temperature up and down and turning the temperature up and down and up and down. So 42 is about the lower up and down. So 42 is about the lower up and down. So 42 is about the lower limit that she'll put her legs in. She limit that she'll put her legs in. She limit that she'll put her legs in. She won't she won't sit in that. won't she won't sit in that. won't she won't sit in that. >> Go in together. >> Go in together. >> Go in together. >> Yeah. But she'll stand in it and I'll >> Yeah. But she'll stand in it and I'll >> Yeah. But she'll stand in it and I'll immerse like I'll go to my neck. immerse like I'll go to my neck. immerse like I'll go to my neck. >> I mean, you don't got to call her a >> I mean, you don't got to call her a >> I mean, you don't got to call her a [ __ ] You know what I mean? [ __ ] You know what I mean? [ __ ] You know what I mean? We could just thought she was into her We could just thought she was into her We could just thought she was into her neck, too. So, wait. So, you're both in. neck, too. So, wait. So, you're both in. neck, too. So, wait. So, you're both in. What are you doing for that for those 10 What are you doing for that for those 10 What are you doing for that for those 10 minutes? Are you like minutes? Are you like minutes? Are you like >> First of all, she will not even put her >> First of all, she will not even put her >> First of all, she will not even put her legs in for 10 minutes. So, she'll be legs in for 10 minutes. So, she'll be legs in for 10 minutes. So, she'll be like, "All right, I'm done with this. like, "All right, I'm done with this. like, "All right, I'm done with this. I'm I'm I'm going to go someplace else." I'm I'm I'm going to go someplace else." I'm I'm I'm going to go someplace else." >> But do you get any benefit out of just >> But do you get any benefit out of just >> But do you get any benefit out of just putting like putting like putting like >> Yeah. Yeah, you do. I think for her, cuz >> Yeah. Yeah, you do. I think for her, cuz >> Yeah. Yeah, you do. I think for her, cuz she's a runner, like she makes your life she's a runner, like she makes your life she's a runner, like she makes your life uncomfortable. uncomfortable. uncomfortable. >> She wants to, you know, she wants to, >> She wants to, you know, she wants to, >> She wants to, you know, she wants to, you know, she goes for a long run, she you know, she goes for a long run, she you know, she goes for a long run, she loves to get in there after. And uh just

And at the time, >> although truthfully when I started >> although truthfully when I started >> although truthfully when I started thinking about it, all I thought about thinking about it, all I thought about thinking about it, all I thought about was heart disease at the beginning was heart disease at the beginning was heart disease at the beginning because because because >> that's the disease that kills my family. >> that's the disease that kills my family. >> that's the disease that kills my family. And so, so my my foray into it was And so, so my my foray into it was And so, so my my foray into it was really through I really want to really through I really want to really through I really want to understand heart disease and I really understand heart disease and I really understand heart disease and I really want to understand why all the men in my want to understand why all the men in my want to understand why all the men in my family die of heart disease and what do family die of heart disease and what do family die of heart disease and what do I need to do to make sure that
28:00I need to do to make sure that I need to do to make sure that >> you know at the time I'm my daughter's >> you know at the time I'm my daughter's >> you know at the time I'm my daughter's born I'm 35 so what do I need to do to born I'm 35 so what do I need to do to born I'm 35 so what do I need to do to make sure I'm not dying at 60 like you make sure I'm not dying at 60 like you make sure I'm not dying at 60 like you know I mean some some men in my family know I mean some some men in my family know I mean some some men in my family died at 45 died at 45 died at 45 >> from heart disease from heart attack >> from heart disease from heart attack >> from heart disease from heart attack Jesus Christ what is the first thing Jesus Christ what is the first thing Jesus Christ what is the first thing when addressing heart disease is that when addressing heart disease is that when addressing heart disease is that diet diet diet >> um not necessarily um the fir you you I >> um not necessarily um the fir you you I >> um not necessarily um the fir you you I mean at the I didn't know this at the mean at the I didn't know this at the mean at the I didn't know this at the time, but I now can tell you with much time, but I now can tell you with much time, but I now can tell you with much more clarity. You know, heart disease more clarity. You know, heart disease more clarity. You know, heart disease obviously has a pretty strong genetic obviously has a pretty strong genetic obviously has a pretty strong genetic component, but at the end of the day, component, but at the end of the day, component, but at the end of the day, the there are four big modifiable things the there are four big modifiable things the there are four big modifiable things you just have to manage.

29:00disease stuff cuz I'm on a statin. I disease stuff cuz I'm on a statin. I remember going in to get some my heart remember going in to get some my heart remember going in to get some my heart check. I think it was actually like when check.

So the the short answer is if if you if So the the short answer is if if you if So the the short answer is if if you if you had a house that was being built by you had a house that was being built by you had a house that was being built by a general contractor and that contractor a general contractor and that contractor a general contractor and that contractor came to you and said, "Andrew, I just came to you and said, "Andrew, I just came to you and said, "Andrew, I just want you to know um I don't believe in want you to know um I don't believe in want you to know um I don't believe in saws, hammers, and screwdrivers, but I

And at to to to, you know, fix myself." And at to to to, you know, fix myself." And at the other end of the spectrum, you have the other end of the spectrum, you have the other end of the spectrum, you have these people that are like, "Give me these people that are like, "Give me these people that are like, "Give me every drug in the world, but don't tell every drug in the world, but don't tell every drug in the world, but don't tell me about exercise and nutrition."

So, in other other benefits that come. So, in other other benefits that come. So, in other words, if you take an individual that is words, if you take an individual that is words, if you take an individual that is overweight, not exercising, and has high overweight, not exercising, and has high overweight, not exercising, and has high blood pressure, if you said to me,
31:00blood pressure, if you said to me, blood pressure, if you said to me, Peter, would you rather give them a drug Peter, would you rather give them a drug Peter, would you rather give them a drug to lower their blood pressure or get to lower their blood pressure or get to lower their blood pressure or get them to exercise and lose weight to do them to exercise and lose weight to do them to exercise and lose weight to do it? If they both produce the same blood it? If they both produce the same blood it? If they both produce the same blood pressure, no questions asked, this is a pressure, no questions asked, this is a pressure, no questions asked, this is a better approach because there are other better approach because there are other better approach because there are other benefits that are being captured through benefits that are being captured through benefits that are being captured through exercise and weight loss beyond just the exercise and weight loss beyond just the exercise and weight loss beyond just the blood pressure. But if that person blood pressure. But if that person blood pressure. But if that person either just can't or won't do those either just can't or won't do those either just can't or won't do those things, I'm not going to be punitive and things, I'm not going to be punitive and things, I'm not going to be punitive and say, "Well, say, "Well, say, "Well, >> you're not working hard enough, sorry, >> you're not working hard enough, sorry, >> you're not working hard enough, sorry, I'm going to withhold this." No, of I'm going to withhold this." No, of I'm going to withhold this." No, of course not. And secondly, you can do course not. And secondly, you can do course not. And secondly, you can do both because a lot of people end up both because a lot of people end up both because a lot of people end up losing weight. They exercise, but they losing weight.

I guess that does this really bad thing. I guess the VLDL does it too, but it enters an the VLDL does it too, but it enters an the VLDL does it too, but it enters an artery wall. And if it gets stuck in artery wall. And if it gets stuck in artery wall. And if it gets stuck in that wall, it underos a chemical process that wall, it underos a chemical process that wall, it underos a chemical process called oxidation. called oxidation. called oxidation.

The body trying to repair the damage. The body trying to repair the damage. The final stage of which is the final stage of which is the final stage of which is the calcification that showed up on your CT calcification that showed up on your CT calcification that showed up on your CT scan. scan. scan. >> So the calcification you see on coronary >> So the calcification you see on coronary >> So the calcification you see on coronary arteries is the result of the body arteries is the result of the body arteries is the result of the body laying down concrete on Chernobyl. laying down concrete on Chernobyl. laying down concrete on Chernobyl. >> Got it. So what does the statin do? stop >> Got it. So what does the statin do? stop >> Got it. So what does the statin do? stop the body from laying down the concrete the body from laying down the concrete the body from laying down the concrete or stop or stop or stop >> it. The the the statin very specifically >> it. The the the statin very specifically >> it. The the the statin very specifically because there are lots of different because there are lots of different because there are lots of different drugs that that treat this, but what drugs that that treat this, but what drugs that that treat this, but what statins do specifically is they tell the statins do specifically is they tell the statins do specifically is they tell the body to make less cholesterol. The liver body to make less cholesterol. The liver body to make less cholesterol. The liver in response to that says, "I'm going to in response to that says, "I'm going to in response to that says, "I'm going to make more LDL receptors on my surface to make more LDL receptors on my surface to make more LDL receptors on my surface to pull more LDL out of circulation." So, pull more LDL out of circulation." So, pull more LDL out of circulation." So, they lower the LDL cholesterol by they lower the LDL cholesterol by they lower the LDL cholesterol by tricking the liver into thinking it tricking the liver into thinking it tricking the liver into thinking it needs more of it. needs more of it. needs more of it. >> Brilliant. >> Brilliant. >> Brilliant. >> Yeah. Now, to your question about a side >> Yeah. Now, to your question about a side >> Yeah. Now, to your question about a side effect, of all the drugs that are used effect, of all the drugs that are used effect, of all the drugs that are used today that lower cholesterol, statins
34:00today that lower cholesterol, statins today that lower cholesterol, statins have the most side effects. have the most side effects. have the most side effects. >> Oh, Jesus. I don't even know if I want >> Oh, Jesus. I don't even know if I want >> Oh, Jesus. I don't even know if I want to know. to know. to know. >> Well, the good news is you clearly don't >> Well, the good news is you clearly don't >> Well, the good news is you clearly don't have the most significant side effect, have the most significant side effect, have the most significant side effect, which is muscle soreness. 5% of people which is muscle soreness. 5% of people which is muscle soreness. 5% of people get muscle soreness. Got it. So, that's get muscle soreness. Got it. So, that's get muscle soreness. Got it. So, that's a lot, right? When you think about how a lot, right? When you think about how a lot, right? When you think about how frequently these drugs are used, one in frequently these drugs are used, one in frequently these drugs are used, one in uh 20 people is going to feel like uh 20 people is going to feel like uh 20 people is going to feel like they've had the worst workout of their they've had the worst workout of their they've had the worst workout of their life every day. So, this shows up pretty life every day. So, this shows up pretty life every day. So, this shows up pretty quick. quick. quick. >> Okay. So, >> Okay. So, >> Okay. So, >> so you you get that you take them off >> so you you get that you take them off >> so you you get that you take them off the drug immediately. You um that that the drug immediately. You um that that the drug immediately. You um that that goes away within days. goes away within days. goes away within days. >> Then there are other side effects that >> Then there are other side effects that >> Then there are other side effects that are more subtle and you just have to be are more subtle and you just have to be are more subtle and you just have to be watching for them and one of them is watching for them and one of them is watching for them and one of them is insulin resistance. So, if you see over insulin resistance. So, if you see over insulin resistance. So, if you see over time glucose tolerance getting worse and time glucose tolerance getting worse and time glucose tolerance getting worse and worse, in my book, that's a reason to worse, in my book, that's a reason to worse, in my book, that's a reason to stop using a statin. Um, the other thing stop using a statin. Um, the other thing stop using a statin. Um, the other thing is sometimes the liver function tests is sometimes the liver function tests is sometimes the liver function tests get a little liver enzymes that are get a little liver enzymes that are get a little liver enzymes that are known as liver function tests get a known as liver function tests get a known as liver function tests get a little elevated. That's also a reason to little elevated. That's also a reason to little elevated. That's also a reason to do it. But again, you know, 20 years do it. But again, you know, 20 years do it.

Uh, unfortunately, I'm a super fast metabolizer of I'm a super fast metabolizer of I'm a super fast metabolizer of caffeine, so I don't really get a jolt caffeine, so I don't really get a jolt caffeine, so I don't really get a jolt from it, but I just love the ritual and from it, but I just love the ritual and from it, but I just love the ritual and the taste and the flavor. And I recently the taste and the flavor. And I recently the taste and the flavor. And I recently switched over to this machine that is switched over to this machine that is switched over to this machine that is all glass and metal. So, it makes a all glass and metal. So, it makes a all glass and metal. So, it makes a really nice drip coffee, but without any really nice drip coffee, but without any really nice drip coffee, but without any of the plastic, cuz I have I have been of the plastic, cuz I have I have been of the plastic, cuz I have I have been trying to get rid of obvious sources of trying to get rid of obvious sources of trying to get rid of obvious sources of >> microplastics. Not that I'm like >> microplastics. Not that I'm like >> microplastics. Not that I'm like fanatical about this, but fanatical about this, but fanatical about this, but >> continue. >> continue. >> continue. >> Yeah. So, hot water and plastic is
57:00>> Yeah. So, hot water and plastic is >> Yeah. So, hot water and plastic is something I'm trying to avoid, right? something I'm trying to avoid, right? something I'm trying to avoid, right? So, so I it occurred to me after making So, so I it occurred to me after making So, so I it occurred to me after making this podcast on the topic. I was like, this podcast on the topic. I was like, this podcast on the topic. I was like, man, every morning I put coffee in that man, every morning I put coffee in that man, every morning I put coffee in that thing and it drips scalding hot water thing and it drips scalding hot water thing and it drips scalding hot water through 27 layers of plastic into my through 27 layers of plastic into my through 27 layers of plastic into my glass carff. I was like, there's got to glass carff. I was like, there's got to glass carff. I was like, there's got to be a way to do this. So, now that I be a way to do this. So, now that I be a way to do this. So, now that I discovered this thing, which I can't discovered this thing, which I can't discovered this thing, which I can't remember what it's called, but it's like remember what it's called, but it's like remember what it's called, but it's like it's an all glass version. A listener it's an all glass version. A listener it's an all glass version. A listener sent it to me because I was lamenting on sent it to me because I was lamenting on sent it to me because I was lamenting on the podcast that I couldn't find the podcast that I couldn't find the podcast that I couldn't find something and they're like something and they're like something and they're like >> cutting boards that are not made out of >> cutting boards that are not made out of >> cutting boards that are not made out of wood. Like they'll have like uh I guess wood. Like they'll have like uh I guess wood. Like they'll have like uh I guess plastic cutting boards and you'll get plastic cutting boards and you'll get plastic cutting boards and you'll get tons of microplastics from that kind of tons of microplastics from that kind of tons of microplastics from that kind of stuff. stuff. stuff. >> Yeah, I like the wooden ones frankly. >> Yeah, I like the wooden ones frankly. >> Yeah, I like the wooden ones frankly. >> Breaking if you're in a urban area every >> Breaking if you're in a urban area every >> Breaking if you're in a urban area every time a car uses their brakes, right? time a car uses their brakes, right? time a car uses their brakes, right? It's like sending like millions of It's like sending like millions of It's like sending like millions of microplastics into the air. microplastics into the air. microplastics into the air. >> Yeah. I mean, I think at some point >> Yeah. I mean, I think at some point >> Yeah. I mean, I think at some point there's kind of like the 8020 rule on there's kind of like the 8020 rule on there's kind of like the 8020 rule on this stuff with relatively low effort. I this stuff with relatively low effort. I this stuff with relatively low effort. I think you can eliminate 80% of your think you can eliminate 80% of your think you can eliminate 80% of your exposure and then you could drive exposure and then you could drive exposure and then you could drive yourself crazy and not get the other 20% yourself crazy and not get the other 20% yourself crazy and not get the other 20% out out out >> and just leave that out. >> and just leave that out. >> and just leave that out. >> Yeah. Just just ignore that stuff. >> Yeah. Just just ignore that stuff. >> Yeah. Just just ignore that stuff. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Do you have any more?
58:00>> Do you have any more? >> Do you have any more? >> Not for supplements. No. >> Not for supplements. No. >> Not for supplements. No. >> Okay. We We all have tons more >> Okay. We We all have tons more >> Okay. We We all have tons more questions. questions. questions. >> Oh, nicotine was the other one. >> Oh, nicotine was the other one. >> Oh, nicotine was the other one. >> Oh, yes. Well, I let me ask one question >> Oh, yes. Well, I let me ask one question >> Oh, yes. Well, I let me ask one question before just because we're on before just because we're on before just because we're on microplastics because the second that I microplastics because the second that I microplastics because the second that I told the whole world that my sperm told the whole world that my sperm told the whole world that my sperm doesn't swim, I got a lot of very doesn't swim, I got a lot of very doesn't swim, I got a lot of very concerned people including you. It was concerned people including you. It was concerned people including you. It was really great. Like, so I think one of really great. Like, so I think one of really great. Like, so I think one of your guys that works for you hit up and your guys that works for you hit up and your guys that works for you hit up and was like, "Hey, Dr. T, would love to hit was like, "Hey, Dr. T, would love to hit was like, "Hey, Dr. T, would love to hit you up and talk to you about your you up and talk to you about your you up and talk to you about your sperm." And I was like, "That sounds sperm." And I was like, "That sounds sperm." And I was like, "That sounds like really awesome." If it was a year like really awesome." If it was a year like really awesome." If it was a year ago when I couldn't breathe, ago when I couldn't breathe, ago when I couldn't breathe, but no, this is great. And then you sent but no, this is great. And then you sent but no, this is great. And then you sent me this like awesome podcast which is me this like awesome podcast which is me this like awesome podcast which is out now with Dr. who what was his name? out now with Dr. who what was his name? out now with Dr. who what was his name? >> Paul Trek. >> Paul Trek. >> Paul Trek. >> Paul Trek. Okay. I got a lot of like >> Paul Trek. Okay. I got a lot of like >> Paul Trek. Okay. I got a lot of like online diagnoses about certain things. online diagnoses about certain things. online diagnoses about certain things. People are like, "Yo, watch out for the People are like, "Yo, watch out for the People are like, "Yo, watch out for the microplastics." I'm starting to read all microplastics." I'm starting to read all microplastics." I'm starting to read all these articles about like what's these articles about like what's these articles about like what's happening in male fertility and they say happening in male fertility and they say happening in male fertility and they say like sperm quality has decreased 50% in like sperm quality has decreased 50% in like sperm quality has decreased 50% in the last 50 years. Like can you kind of the last 50 years. Like can you kind of the last 50 years. Like can you kind of uh uh can you talk about that a little bit? can you talk about that a little bit? can you talk about that a little bit? Just like is sperm quality decreasing in Just like is sperm quality decreasing in Just like is sperm quality decreasing in America? Is that are we just testing it America? Is that are we just testing it America? Is that are we just testing it better? You know what what is happening
59:00better? You know what what is happening better? You know what what is happening with microplastic? Does that affect it? with microplastic? Does that affect it? with microplastic? Does that affect it? What do you think affected mine? So I I What do you think affected mine? So I I What do you think affected mine? So I I think that there are so many things think that there are so many things think that there are so many things going on and it's impossible to say going on and it's impossible to say going on and it's impossible to say which one or two or three are driving which one or two or three are driving which one or two or three are driving it. It's kind of like the US health care it. It's kind of like the US health care it. It's kind of like the US health care system. You know when someone says why system. You know when someone says why system. You know when someone says why does the US spend more than twice what does the US spend more than twice what does the US spend more than twice what any other country spends? any other country spends? any other country spends? >> I'm like how much time do you have? Cuz >> I'm like how much time do you have? Cuz >> I'm like how much time do you have? Cuz it's it's I'm going to have to explain it's it's I'm going to have to explain it's it's I'm going to have to explain the entire system. I won't do that here the entire system. I won't do that here the entire system. I won't do that here on the sperm issue but it's a lot of on the sperm issue but it's a lot of on the sperm issue but it's a lot of things right. So, as as males are things right. So, as as males are things right. So, as as males are getting older at the time of wanting to getting older at the time of wanting to getting older at the time of wanting to reproduce, age is driving down quality. reproduce, age is driving down quality. reproduce, age is driving down quality. Um, Um, Um, >> but at what age? I was told that that's >> but at what age? I was told that that's >> but at what age? I was told that that's doesn't happen till we're like 60. doesn't happen till we're like 60. doesn't happen till we're like 60. >> Um, no. I mean, at 50, you fall off a >> Um, no. I mean, at 50, you fall off a >> Um, no. I mean, at 50, you fall off a cliff from the standpoint of the quality cliff from the standpoint of the quality cliff from the standpoint of the quality of the sperm. of the sperm. of the sperm. >> Got it. >> Got it. >> Got it. >> Um, but remember, as you're getting >> Um, but remember, as you're getting >> Um, but remember, as you're getting older, testosterone's going down as older, testosterone's going down as older, testosterone's going down as well. Well, then you factor in if well. Well, then you factor in if well. Well, then you factor in if testosterone is going down and more men testosterone is going down and more men testosterone is going down and more men are using testosterone replacement
1:00are using testosterone replacement are using testosterone replacement therapy, that's also uh reducing therapy, that's also uh reducing therapy, that's also uh reducing fertility. If you're using actual fertility. If you're using actual fertility. If you're using actual exogenous testosterone, exogenous testosterone, exogenous testosterone, the relationship between obesity and the relationship between obesity and the relationship between obesity and metabolic disease is also pretty metabolic disease is also pretty metabolic disease is also pretty significant and men on average today are significant and men on average today are significant and men on average today are much fatter and less healthier. That much fatter and less healthier. That much fatter and less healthier. That doesn't explain you, but clearly there's doesn't explain you, but clearly there's doesn't explain you, but clearly there's something going on at the population something going on at the population something going on at the population level there. That also probably has the level there. That also probably has the level there. That also probably has the greatest impact on declining greatest impact on declining greatest impact on declining testosterone levels. testosterone levels. testosterone levels. um is just inflammation, obesity, um um is just inflammation, obesity, um um is just inflammation, obesity, um more aromatization, meaning turning more aromatization, meaning turning more aromatization, meaning turning testosterone into estrogen. Um you know, testosterone into estrogen. Um you know, testosterone into estrogen. Um you know, it's funny. I don't think I don't know it's funny. I don't think I don't know it's funny. I don't think I don't know enough about STDs, so I don't know if enough about STDs, so I don't know if enough about STDs, so I don't know if they're going up, but STDs play a pretty they're going up, but STDs play a pretty they're going up, but STDs play a pretty big role in for infertility as well. So big role in for infertility as well. So big role in for infertility as well. So yeah, if you get like um uh an infection yeah, if you get like um uh an infection yeah, if you get like um uh an infection of the epidmus uh which is the of the epidmus uh which is the of the epidmus uh which is the collecting system on the back of the collecting system on the back of the collecting system on the back of the testes and you get recurrent epidommitis testes and you get recurrent epidommitis testes and you get recurrent epidommitis and again you can get those from UTI or and again you can get those from UTI or and again you can get those from UTI or other things, but STDs are the most other things, but STDs are the most other things, but STDs are the most common cause of that. Um so again, I
1:01common cause of that. Um so again, I common cause of that. Um so again, I don't I don't really know what's going don't I don't really know what's going don't I don't really know what's going on with chlamyia and gorrhea these days. on with chlamyia and gorrhea these days. on with chlamyia and gorrhea these days. I don't sort of see that stuff in my I don't sort of see that stuff in my I don't sort of see that stuff in my practice, but my guess is that that practice, but my guess is that that practice, but my guess is that that could be playing a role. So I think it's could be playing a role. So I think it's could be playing a role. So I think it's probably a death by a thousand cuts. I probably a death by a thousand cuts. I probably a death by a thousand cuts. I don't think there's a smoking gun. Do don't think there's a smoking gun. Do don't think there's a smoking gun. Do microplastics play a role? Yeah, it's microplastics play a role? Yeah, it's microplastics play a role? Yeah, it's possible. Would they do? I read some possible. Would they do? I read some possible. Would they do? I read some reports saying they found microplastics reports saying they found microplastics reports saying they found microplastics in sperm samples. in sperm samples. in sperm samples. >> Yeah, I mean maybe. I I don't know that >> Yeah, I mean maybe. I I don't know that >> Yeah, I mean maybe. I I don't know that that by itself is a smoking gun here. that by itself is a smoking gun here. that by itself is a smoking gun here. You know, I you know, you can find You know, I you know, you can find You know, I you know, you can find microplastics in many things and I don't microplastics in many things and I don't microplastics in many things and I don't know if it's causally driving the the know if it's causally driving the the know if it's causally driving the the problem that you're seeing. That said, problem that you're seeing. That said, problem that you're seeing. That said, all things equal, I'd probably prefer all things equal, I'd probably prefer all things equal, I'd probably prefer not to see microplastics in sperm than not to see microplastics in sperm than not to see microplastics in sperm than to see them. Um especially as we talked to see them. Um especially as we talked to see them. Um especially as we talked about in that podcast. I mean, the about in that podcast. I mean, the about in that podcast. I mean, the process is so it's it's so hard to process is so it's it's so hard to process is so it's it's so hard to believe it actually happens. Can you believe it actually happens. Can you believe it actually happens. Can you break down the process of impregnating a break down the process of impregnating a break down the process of impregnating a woman? woman? woman? >> Yeah. I mean, I think again, I think >> Yeah. I mean, I think again, I think >> Yeah. I mean, I think again, I think Paul does a much better job, but the Paul does a much better job, but the Paul does a much better job, but the gist of it is that, you know, when a guy gist of it is that, you know, when a guy gist of it is that, you know, when a guy ejaculates, a 100,000 sperm come ejaculates, a 100,000 sperm come ejaculates, a 100,000 sperm come shooting. shooting. shooting. >> 100 million. >> 100 million. >> 100 million. >> That's right. 100 million sperm. Thank >> That's right. 100 million sperm. Thank >> That's right. 100 million sperm. Thank you. Uh go shooting into uh the vagina.
1:02you. Uh go shooting into uh the vagina. you. Uh go shooting into uh the vagina. And you said it best, right? It's like And you said it best, right? It's like And you said it best, right? It's like it's like wave after wave of soldier it's like wave after wave of soldier it's like wave after wave of soldier just getting destroyed, destroyed, just getting destroyed, destroyed, just getting destroyed, destroyed, destroyed. And finally, as the acidity destroyed. And finally, as the acidity destroyed. And finally, as the acidity of that environment and the harshness of of that environment and the harshness of of that environment and the harshness of that environment, a you know, a a few of that environment, a you know, a a few of that environment, a you know, a a few of them manage to get through and then they them manage to get through and then they them manage to get through and then they now they're in the uterus and then now they're in the uterus and then now they're in the uterus and then they've got this whole other challenge they've got this whole other challenge they've got this whole other challenge because they have to eventually make because they have to eventually make because they have to eventually make their way up the fallopian tube. But the their way up the fallopian tube. But the their way up the fallopian tube. But the punch line is like only about a hundred punch line is like only about a hundred punch line is like only about a hundred of the hundred million make their way to of the hundred million make their way to of the hundred million make their way to the egg. the egg. the egg. >> How insane is that? You So 100 million >> How insane is that? You So 100 million >> How insane is that? You So 100 million start, a 100red end up going there. I start, a 100red end up going there. I start, a 100red end up going there. I think it was like 100 million by the think it was like 100 million by the think it was like 100 million by the time. Yeah, cuz the pH in the time. Yeah, cuz the pH in the time. Yeah, cuz the pH in the >> in the vagina is like quite acidic. Yes. >> in the vagina is like quite acidic. Yes. >> in the vagina is like quite acidic. Yes. >> So I think it it narrows it down to 5 >> So I think it it narrows it down to 5 >> So I think it it narrows it down to 5 million. And then going through the million. And then going through the million. And then going through the fallopian tubes, you're down to 100 fallopian tubes, you're down to 100 fallopian tubes, you're down to 100 sperm. That's your chance every time you sperm. That's your chance every time you sperm. That's your chance every time you do it. do it. do it. >> And they have to swim. And we were >> And they have to swim. And we were >> And they have to swim. And we were talking about this before the podcast. A talking about this before the podcast. A talking about this before the podcast. A sperm in order to get from the vagina to sperm in order to get from the vagina to sperm in order to get from the vagina to the egg has to swim the equivalent the egg has to swim the equivalent the egg has to swim the equivalent sizewise of us swimming 20 miles.
1:03sizewise of us swimming 20 miles. sizewise of us swimming 20 miles. >> Catalina. >> Catalina. >> Catalina. >> Yeah. So you think of the energy >> Yeah. So you think of the energy >> Yeah. So you think of the energy requirement of that little fleeller tail requirement of that little fleeller tail requirement of that little fleeller tail on the back of a sperm. on the back of a sperm. on the back of a sperm. >> Oh, that was cool too about how like >> Oh, that was cool too about how like >> Oh, that was cool too about how like each one has a limited amount of fuel each one has a limited amount of fuel each one has a limited amount of fuel essentially. So each sperm has the fuel essentially. So each sperm has the fuel essentially. So each sperm has the fuel and it's used to get to the egg and and it's used to get to the egg and and it's used to get to the egg and after that there's no reserve one way. after that there's no reserve one way. after that there's no reserve one way. That's it. So it's a rocket. That's it. So it's a rocket. That's it. So it's a rocket. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> That's wild. Now is it the first sperm >> That's wild. Now is it the first sperm >> That's wild. Now is it the first sperm to reach the the egg or does the egg to reach the the egg or does the egg to reach the the egg or does the egg have any selection process? have any selection process? have any selection process? >> Uh so interesting. So as the once you >> Uh so interesting. So as the once you >> Uh so interesting. So as the once you now get down to that group that are now get down to that group that are now get down to that group that are getting to the sperm up to the egg, it's getting to the sperm up to the egg, it's getting to the sperm up to the egg, it's the first one that gets embedded that the first one that gets embedded that the first one that gets embedded that actually triggers this incredible actually triggers this incredible actually triggers this incredible electrical electrical electrical system like a force field forms around system like a force field forms around system like a force field forms around the egg and no other sperm can get in. the egg and no other sperm can get in. the egg and no other sperm can get in. And the reason that's so important is And the reason that's so important is And the reason that's so important is you would create what's called annuployy you would create what's called annuployy you would create what's called annuployy where you have multiple copies of where you have multiple copies of where you have multiple copies of chromosomes if you do this and that chromosomes if you do this and that chromosomes if you do this and that would be catastrophic. M. would be catastrophic. M. would be catastrophic. M. >> So that to me is my favorite part of >> So that to me is my favorite part of
1:04>> So that to me is my favorite part of that is there's this whole calcium that is there's this whole calcium that is there's this whole calcium channel that like flips a switched channel that like flips a switched channel that like flips a switched the second like the millisecond that the second like the millisecond that the second like the millisecond that that first sperm makes contact. It's that first sperm makes contact. It's that first sperm makes contact. It's just a and then away it goes. just a and then away it goes. just a and then away it goes. >> But how crazy is it that like your >> But how crazy is it that like your >> But how crazy is it that like your fastest quote unquote I don't know if fastest quote unquote I don't know if fastest quote unquote I don't know if they're the best but the first few lines they're the best but the first few lines they're the best but the first few lines we're talking about 95 million your 95 we're talking about 95 million your 95 we're talking about 95 million your 95 million best sperm get axed the second million best sperm get axed the second million best sperm get axed the second they touch the shore. they touch the shore. they touch the shore. >> Wow. >> Wow. >> Right. So the last 5 million who are >> Right. So the last 5 million who are >> Right. So the last 5 million who are just like chilling, hanging out, like just like chilling, hanging out, like just like chilling, hanging out, like watching to see what went on are the watching to see what went on are the watching to see what went on are the only ones that end up getting there. So only ones that end up getting there. So only ones that end up getting there. So is there an argument that if you were to is there an argument that if you were to is there an argument that if you were to select sperm like in in vitro or select sperm like in in vitro or select sperm like in in vitro or something like that that those might be something like that that those might be something like that that those might be potentially part of the first wave? potentially part of the first wave? potentially part of the first wave? >> Such a great question. But of course, >> Such a great question. But of course, >> Such a great question. But of course, right? So so I guess the question is are right? So so I guess the question is are right? So so I guess the question is are the first ones that get out stoastically the first ones that get out stoastically the first ones that get out stoastically determined to be the first ones out or determined to be the first ones out or determined to be the first ones out or is there a selection benefit to being is there a selection benefit to being is there a selection benefit to being the first one out? If there's a the first one out? If there's a the first one out? If there's a selection benefit to being the first one selection benefit to being the first one selection benefit to being the first one out, then it means IVF is probably out, then it means IVF is probably out, then it means IVF is probably altering that mix cuz IVF would be just altering that mix cuz IVF would be just altering that mix cuz IVF would be just picking randomly. picking randomly. picking randomly. >> If it's if there's no survival reason
1:05>> If it's if there's no survival reason >> If it's if there's no survival reason why those first ones are out and the why those first ones are out and the why those first ones are out and the five million are at the back, then it five million are at the back, then it five million are at the back, then it probably wouldn't matter. probably wouldn't matter. probably wouldn't matter. >> Okay, that's what you would hope because >> Okay, that's what you would hope because >> Okay, that's what you would hope because they do like a sperm cleaning is what they do like a sperm cleaning is what they do like a sperm cleaning is what they call where they essentially look they call where they essentially look they call where they essentially look for like the healthiest versions and um for like the healthiest versions and um for like the healthiest versions and um and they'll take them and plant them. and they'll take them and plant them. and they'll take them and plant them. But god forbid if you know they weren't But god forbid if you know they weren't But god forbid if you know they weren't like supposed to be there. Ooh. But then like supposed to be there. Ooh. But then like supposed to be there. Ooh. But then again, if they are the strongest, that's again, if they are the strongest, that's again, if they are the strongest, that's a lot of pressure on my kid. Like, you a lot of pressure on my kid.

So it turns out that hot tub What did what did Paul say that hot tub What did what did Paul say that hot tub What did what did Paul say in this podcast? He said he could render in this podcast? He said he could render in this podcast? He said he could render any guy completely infertile any guy completely infertile any guy completely infertile >> by just going in a hot tub. by doing >> by just going in a hot tub. by doing >> by just going in a hot tub. by doing four hot tub sessions a week. four hot tub sessions a week. four hot tub sessions a week. >> And then he said uh his >> And then he said uh his >> And then he said uh his >> to which I was like this needs to be a >> to which I was like this needs to be a >> to which I was like this needs to be a form of birth control. form of birth control. form of birth control. >> Wow. >> Wow. >> Some people say I mean the uh your buddy >> Some people say I mean the uh your buddy >> Some people say I mean the uh your buddy said that he would go I think was it you said that he would go I think was it you said that he would go I think was it you that was one of your buddies were trying that was one of your buddies were trying that was one of your buddies were trying to get pregnant and they would go in the to get pregnant and they would go in the to get pregnant and they would go in the sauna with sauna with sauna with >> he would bring an ice pack on his nuts >> he would bring an ice pack on his nuts >> he would bring an ice pack on his nuts in the sauna. in the sauna. in the sauna. >> He would just keep the ice pack on his >> He would just keep the ice pack on his >> He would just keep the ice pack on his nuts. nuts. nuts. >> Wow. >> Wow. >> But I imagine like the fact that the >> But I imagine like the fact that the >> But I imagine like the fact that the testicles can like elevate and descend testicles can like elevate and descend testicles can like elevate and descend is specifically so that they can is specifically so that they can is specifically so that they can maintain a temperature that's beneficial maintain a temperature that's beneficial maintain a temperature that's beneficial to them, right? Well, yeah, that's to them, right? Well, yeah, that's to them, right? Well, yeah, that's mostly for cold protection, not heat mostly for cold protection, not heat mostly for cold protection, not heat protection. So that's why he was saying protection. So that's why he was saying protection. So that's why he was saying cold plunge is not he doesn't concern cold plunge is not he doesn't concern cold plunge is not he doesn't concern himself with cold plunge and fertility himself with cold plunge and fertility himself with cold plunge and fertility cuz they can ascend and they can get cuz they can ascend and they can get cuz they can ascend and they can get >> warm. They can keep themselves warm. >> warm. They can keep themselves warm. >> warm. They can keep themselves warm. It's that they can't dissipate heat. It's that they can't dissipate heat. It's that they can't dissipate heat. >> Oh, that makes sense. >> Oh, that makes sense. >> Oh, that makes sense. >> So that's why they have nowhere to go in
1:07>> So that's why they have nowhere to go in >> So that's why they have nowhere to go in the hot tub. the hot tub. the hot tub. >> Is there any long-term effect or is it >> Is there any long-term effect or is it >> Is there any long-term effect or is it just temporary? just temporary? just temporary? >> Sounds like from him it's just it's just >> Sounds like from him it's just it's just >> Sounds like from him it's just it's just transient. transient. transient. >> What about desert people like people >> What about desert people like people >> What about desert people like people where the temperature does get to 100° where the temperature does get to 100° where the temperature does get to 100° 105°? 105°? 105°? >> Yeah. Again, air doesn't conduct >> Yeah. Again, air doesn't conduct >> Yeah. Again, air doesn't conduct temperature nearly as well as water. So, temperature nearly as well as water. So, temperature nearly as well as water. So, the thermal coefficient of water is so the thermal coefficient of water is so the thermal coefficient of water is so high. That's why when you're in 105 high. That's why when you're in 105 high. That's why when you're in 105 degree water, it's actually degree water, it's actually degree water, it's actually uncomfortable. When you're in 105° air, uncomfortable. When you're in 105° air, uncomfortable. When you're in 105° air, you can stand it for a long time. you can stand it for a long time. you can stand it for a long time. >> What about the red light therapy on your >> What about the red light therapy on your >> What about the red light therapy on your junk? junk? junk? >> Oh, yeah. I saw people talking about >> Oh, yeah. I saw people talking about >> Oh, yeah. I saw people talking about this a couple years ago. This was all this a couple years ago.

But when you look at sort of the grotesque misuse of look at sort of the grotesque misuse of look at sort of the grotesque misuse of this stuff in areas where it's just this stuff in areas where it's just this stuff in areas where it's just clearly not going to play a role, for clearly not going to play a role, for clearly not going to play a role, for example, the intravenous administration example, the intravenous administration example, the intravenous administration of this stuff or the intratheal of this stuff or the intratheal of this stuff or the intratheal administration of this stuff.

I mean, there's there's there's just no plausible mechanism by there's just no plausible mechanism by there's just no plausible mechanism by which you're going to inject stem cells which you're going to inject stem cells which you're going to inject stem cells into somebody's blood bloodstream that into somebody's blood bloodstream that into somebody's blood bloodstream that they're not going to get, you know, they're not going to get, you know, they're not going to get, you know, completely torn up by the, you know, the completely torn up by the, you know, the completely torn up by the, you know, the the cells in the lung. And at the best the cells in the lung. And at the best the cells in the lung. And at the best case scenario is it does nothing. But case scenario is it does nothing. But case scenario is it does nothing. But the worst case scenario is, you know, the worst case scenario is, you know, the worst case scenario is, you know, you've wasted a ton of money and you've you've wasted a ton of money and you've you've wasted a ton of money and you've potentially um, you know, subjected potentially um, you know, subjected potentially um, you know, subjected yourself to some infection or something yourself to some infection or something yourself to some infection or something like that. And we don't hear enough of like that. And we don't hear enough of like that. And we don't hear enough of those stories. I do hear some of those those stories. I do hear some of those those stories. I do hear some of those stories of the people who get horrible stories of the people who get horrible stories of the people who get horrible infections when they go down to, you infections when they go down to, you infections when they go down to, you know, Costa Rica or Colombia to get know, Costa Rica or Colombia to get know, Costa Rica or Colombia to get their stem cell treatments, which says their stem cell treatments, which says their stem cell treatments, which says nothing of how much money is being spent nothing of how much money is being spent nothing of how much money is being spent on this uh sort of thing. So, so my on this uh sort of thing. So, so my on this uh sort of thing. So, so my guess is there's some there's some guess is there's some there's some guess is there's some there's some signal there, but it's like most of what signal there, but it's like most of what signal there, but it's like most of what you're seeing is is not um you're seeing is is not um you're seeing is is not um >> this is a huge industry. >> this is a huge industry. >> this is a huge industry. >> Yeah, it's it's actually kind of >> Yeah, it's it's actually kind of >> Yeah, it's it's actually kind of remarkable that it exists. But I mean, I remarkable that it exists. But I mean, I remarkable that it exists. But I mean, I shouldn't say that. Anytime there's a shouldn't say that. Anytime there's a shouldn't say that. Anytime there's a anytime you can do something to convince anytime you can do something to convince anytime you can do something to convince people without data that something people without data that something people without data that something works, it's it's a win-win, right? works, it's it's a win-win, right? works, it's it's a win-win, right? >> I'm so I'm just so shocked that it's
1:11>> I'm so I'm just so shocked that it's >> I'm so I'm just so shocked that it's become so normalized. become so normalized. become so normalized.

I haven't about it outside of you now. I haven't done much research and again I'm like done much research and again I'm like done much research and again I'm like completely ignorant to all this stuff, completely ignorant to all this stuff, completely ignorant to all this stuff, but but wow. So the stem cells you don't but but wow. So the stem cells you don't but but wow. So the stem cells you don't see you see marginal benefit potentially see you see marginal benefit potentially see you see marginal benefit potentially and no real data to back it. and no real data to back it. and no real data to back it. >> Definitely no data. So, so people that >> Definitely no data. So, so people that >> Definitely no data. So, so people that talk about data are talking about talk about data are talking about talk about data are talking about anecdotal data like you know my cousin anecdotal data like you know my cousin anecdotal data like you know my cousin Joey I mean he stems cells and he's 100% Joey I mean he stems cells and he's 100% Joey I mean he stems cells and he's 100% better. It's like okay well I mean again better. It's like okay well I mean again better. It's like okay well I mean again maybe Joey would have got better anyway maybe Joey would have got better anyway maybe Joey would have got better anyway because you know so so you can't you because you know so so you can't you because you know so so you can't you cannot study these things without cannot study these things without cannot study these things without blinding blinding blinding >> and without randomization. You simply >> and without randomization. You simply >> and without randomization. You simply can't. can't. can't. >> And who's signing up for the blind stem >> And who's signing up for the blind stem >> And who's signing up for the blind stem cell study? Right. cell study?

Right. >> If you got enough money to get your >> If you got enough money to get your >> If you got enough money to get your shoulder fixed and you're willing to go shoulder fixed and you're willing to go shoulder fixed and you're willing to go to [ __ ] Colombia to do it, then you to [ __ ] Colombia to do it, then you to [ __ ] Colombia to do it, then you want the real stuff. want the real stuff. want the real stuff. >> Yeah. M are there are there other uh >> Yeah. M are there are there other uh >> Yeah. M are there are there other uh >> yeah I think a lot of the peptide stuff >> yeah I think a lot of the peptide stuff >> yeah I think a lot of the peptide stuff is total nonsense is total nonsense is total nonsense >> BP BPC 157 >> BP BPC 157 >> BP BPC 157 >> yeah so let's take that one it's the >> yeah so let's take that one it's the >> yeah so let's take that one it's the most popular most popular most popular >> what is can we def like what is it let's >> what is can we def like what is it let's >> what is can we def like what is it let's >> yeah so BPC57 is an analog of something
1:12>> yeah so BPC57 is an analog of something >> yeah so BPC57 is an analog of something called vascular endothelial growth called vascular endothelial growth called vascular endothelial growth factor veg f so what is veg so veg f is factor veg f so what is veg so veg f is factor veg f so what is veg so veg f is uh is a is a molecule in the body that uh is a is a molecule in the body that uh is a is a molecule in the body that promotes something called angiogenesis promotes something called angiogenesis promotes something called angiogenesis which is the creation of new blood which is the creation of new blood which is the creation of new blood vessels. So um vessels. So um vessels. So um angioenesis is really important in angioenesis is really important in angioenesis is really important in certain processes. In fact it's certain processes. In fact it's certain processes. In fact it's important for cancer right? So cancer important for cancer right? So cancer important for cancer right? So cancer has to utilize vef to to spread and has to utilize vef to to spread and has to utilize vef to to spread and grow. grow. grow. >> Um so many years ago a drug called >> Um so many years ago a drug called >> Um so many years ago a drug called avasten was introduced that was an avasten was introduced that was an avasten was introduced that was an anti-vegf drug anti-vegf drug anti-vegf drug >> to limit the growth of >> to limit the growth of >> to limit the growth of >> right target this thing. Right. Okay. So >> right target this thing. Right. Okay. So >> right target this thing. Right. Okay. So um but there are clearly times when you um but there are clearly times when you um but there are clearly times when you would want lots of angioenesis when you would want lots of angioenesis when you would want lots of angioenesis when you want proliferation of blood vessels. And want proliferation of blood vessels. And want proliferation of blood vessels. And so the thinking is that if we give so the thinking is that if we give so the thinking is that if we give people BPC57 people BPC57 people BPC57 and they have an injury maybe it and they have an injury maybe it and they have an injury maybe it improves healing and um I think it it's
1:13improves healing and um I think it it's improves healing and um I think it it's possible but there are a couple of possible but there are a couple of possible but there are a couple of challenges with this right. So you can challenges with this right. So you can challenges with this right. So you can take BPC-157 take BPC-157 take BPC-157 orally, but the bioavailability is only orally, but the bioavailability is only orally, but the bioavailability is only 10 to 20%. Because the acid in the 10 to 20%. Because the acid in the 10 to 20%. Because the acid in the stomach tends to rip peptides apart. So stomach tends to rip peptides apart. So stomach tends to rip peptides apart. So it's not clear that you can take enough it's not clear that you can take enough it's not clear that you can take enough of this stuff by mouth to actually of this stuff by mouth to actually of this stuff by mouth to actually meaningfully get it into your body. meaningfully get it into your body. meaningfully get it into your body. Furthermore, how much would you need to Furthermore, how much would you need to Furthermore, how much would you need to take? Like let's say your patella tendon take? Like let's say your patella tendon take? Like let's say your patella tendon is the thing that's flared up and you is the thing that's flared up and you is the thing that's flared up and you really just want to get, you know, more really just want to get, you know, more really just want to get, you know, more blood flow there. Should you just be blood flow there. Should you just be blood flow there. Should you just be injecting BPC57 there? um the halflife injecting BPC57 there? um the halflife injecting BPC57 there? um the halflife of it is like one to two hours. So then of it is like one to two hours. So then of it is like one to two hours. So then the question becomes like how often do the question becomes like how often do the question becomes like how often do you have to use this stuff? I mean do you have to use this stuff? I mean do you have to use this stuff? I mean do you need to be injecting it three times you need to be injecting it three times you need to be injecting it three times a day? Um and again without any data we a day? Um and again without any data we a day? Um and again without any data we just don't know. So I think there's just don't know. So I think there's just don't know. So I think there's biological plausibility to it. But biological plausibility to it. But biological plausibility to it. But >> if that weren't enough you know the FDA >> if that weren't enough you know the FDA >> if that weren't enough you know the FDA has cracked down on these things and has cracked down on these things and has cracked down on these things and said like come on guys we need to see said like come on guys we need to see said like come on guys we need to see some data if we're going to let you use some data if we're going to let you use
1:14some data if we're going to let you use these things. So nowarmacies can't make these things. So nowarmacies can't make these things. So nowarmacies can't make this stuff anymore. So now when people this stuff anymore. So now when people this stuff anymore. So now when people buy peptides, they have to do it in in a buy peptides, they have to do it in in a buy peptides, they have to do it in in a very shady way, which is they have to very shady way, which is they have to very shady way, which is they have to buy it from a manufacturer who claims buy it from a manufacturer who claims buy it from a manufacturer who claims that they're only selling it for that they're only selling it for that they're only selling it for research purposes research purposes research purposes >> and that you're only buying it for >> and that you're only buying it for >> and that you're only buying it for research purposes. research purposes. research purposes. >> Um, and then until they get shut down >> Um, and then until they get shut down >> Um, and then until they get shut down and then it's like a kind of a game of and then it's like a kind of a game of and then it's like a kind of a game of whack-a-ole. But there's no quality whack-a-ole. But there's no quality whack-a-ole. But there's no quality control. And truthfully, like I would control. And truthfully, like I would control. And truthfully, like I would really like to see this studied so that really like to see this studied so that really like to see this studied so that we could know. Like I'd like to see we could know. Like I'd like to see we could know. Like I'd like to see what's called an IND, which is, you what's called an IND, which is, you what's called an IND, which is, you know, means like the FDA stamps this know, means like the FDA stamps this know, means like the FDA stamps this with an investigational new drug uh with an investigational new drug uh with an investigational new drug uh status and let it get studied and um and status and let it get studied and um and status and let it get studied and um and let's decide once and for all like does let's decide once and for all like does let's decide once and for all like does this work? Because this work? Because this work? Because >> I'm sure there's going to be a time in >> I'm sure there's going to be a time in >> I'm sure there's going to be a time in my life when I'm going to want every my life when I'm going to want every my life when I'm going to want every trick up the up the sleeve that could be trick up the up the sleeve that could be trick up the up the sleeve that could be used to to address these things. Um used to to address these things. Um used to to address these things. Um there are some peptides that actually I there are some peptides that actually I there are some peptides that actually I will say completely do work. Um they're will say completely do work. Um they're will say completely do work. Um they're biologically identical to certain biologically identical to certain biologically identical to certain hormones in the body. So um simoralin
1:15hormones in the body. So um simoralin hormones in the body. So um simoralin for example um is is basically a growth for example um is is basically a growth for example um is is basically a growth hormone analog. Works perfectly well. Um hormone analog. Works perfectly well. Um hormone analog. Works perfectly well. Um but then you have to ask the question but then you have to ask the question but then you have to ask the question you know what are the pros and cons of you know what are the pros and cons of you know what are the pros and cons of taking growth hormone. Yeah. taking growth hormone. Yeah. taking growth hormone. Yeah. >> Um >> Um >> yeah. What is your I I know many people >> yeah. What is your I I know many people >> yeah. What is your I I know many people that when they hit like you know 35 40 that when they hit like you know 35 40 that when they hit like you know 35 40 their testosterone goes down and doing their testosterone goes down and doing their testosterone goes down and doing you know TRT and growth hormone stuff to you know TRT and growth hormone stuff to you know TRT and growth hormone stuff to get it back to that baseline level. get it back to that baseline level. get it back to that baseline level. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> What are your thoughts on that? >> What are your thoughts on that? >> What are your thoughts on that? >> Um I mean totally different things. I >> Um I mean totally different things. I >> Um I mean totally different things. I would say when it comes to TRT I think would say when it comes to TRT I think would say when it comes to TRT I think the data are really good at the benefits the data are really good at the benefits the data are really good at the benefits of TRT in a in a low T state. Um, of TRT in a in a low T state. Um, of TRT in a in a low T state. Um, obviously you have to be aware of obviously you have to be aware of obviously you have to be aware of certain situations like you know if you certain situations like you know if you certain situations like you know if you want to have kids TRT you have to be I want to have kids TRT you have to be I want to have kids TRT you have to be I wouldn't recommend TRT to somebody who wouldn't recommend TRT to somebody who wouldn't recommend TRT to somebody who still wants to maintain fertility. I still wants to maintain fertility. I still wants to maintain fertility. I would recommend hCG which is a another would recommend hCG which is a another would recommend hCG which is a another >> way to increase testosterone production >> way to increase testosterone production >> way to increase testosterone production without giving testosterone and shutting without giving testosterone and shutting without giving testosterone and shutting down endogenous production the body's down endogenous production the body's down endogenous production the body's production. growth hormones a is a is a production. growth hormones a is a is a production. growth hormones a is a is a more complicated one and I I I I still more complicated one and I I I I still more complicated one and I I I I still of two I'm two I'm of two minds on this
1:16of two I'm two I'm of two minds on this of two I'm two I'm of two minds on this which is um on the one hand there's which is um on the one hand there's which is um on the one hand there's really no data one way or the other really no data one way or the other really no data one way or the other saying it's good or bad saying it's good or bad saying it's good or bad >> right actually that's not true there are >> right actually that's not true there are >> right actually that's not true there are data saying it's good in certain cases data saying it's good in certain cases data saying it's good in certain cases like HIV wasting right so people like like HIV wasting right so people like like HIV wasting right so people like back in the 80s when we didn't have back in the 80s when we didn't have back in the 80s when we didn't have highly active highly active highly active highly active highly active highly active anti-retroviral therapy for um patients anti-retroviral therapy for um patients anti-retroviral therapy for um patients with AIDS you had nothing to offer these with AIDS you had nothing to offer these with AIDS you had nothing to offer these people but like high doses of steroids people but like high doses of steroids people but like high doses of steroids and growth hormone and by way and growth hormone and by way and growth hormone and by way dramatically improved their quality of dramatically improved their quality of dramatically improved their quality of life. life. life. >> Um, >> Um, >> Um, >> so we know that at least in the case of >> so we know that at least in the case of >> so we know that at least in the case of AIDS wasting, growth hormone was AIDS wasting, growth hormone was AIDS wasting, growth hormone was amazing. Um, amazing. Um, amazing. Um, >> I've never met a person who took growth >> I've never met a person who took growth >> I've never met a person who took growth hormone who didn't say they felt better. hormone who didn't say they felt better. hormone who didn't say they felt better. Um, so the question is at what cost? Um, Um, so the question is at what cost? Um, Um, so the question is at what cost? Um, I've never taken it, but I tell you I I've never taken it, but I tell you I I've never taken it, but I tell you I I'm sure at some point I'm probably I'm sure at some point I'm probably I'm sure at some point I'm probably going to be like, you know what, going to be like, you know what, going to be like, you know what, >> let's try it. >> let's try it. >> let's try it. >> I don't care about the risks anymore. >> I don't care about the risks anymore. >> I don't care about the risks anymore. I'm old enough. I feel crappy enough. I'm old enough. I feel crappy enough. I'm old enough. I feel crappy enough. it's time to start taking it. But, you it's time to start taking it. But, you it's time to start taking it. But, you know, I'm only 52. Uh, I'm gonna I'm know, I'm only 52. Uh, I'm gonna I'm know, I'm only 52. Uh, I'm gonna I'm gonna hold out a little bit longer
1:17gonna hold out a little bit longer gonna hold out a little bit longer before experimenting. before experimenting. before experimenting. >> Right. What about like NAD or all these >> Right. What about like NAD or all these >> Right. What about like NAD or all these like um cosmetic IV drips? like um cosmetic IV drips? like um cosmetic IV drips? >> Yeah. Um >> Yeah. Um >> Yeah. Um NAD is another one where it there's a NAD is another one where it there's a NAD is another one where it there's a there's a great argument for why you there's a great argument for why you there's a great argument for why you would take it because NAD levels decline would take it because NAD levels decline would take it because NAD levels decline as we age and NAD is very important. So as we age and NAD is very important. So as we age and NAD is very important. So that if you took those, if I told you that if you took those, if I told you that if you took those, if I told you there's this really important thing in there's this really important thing in there's this really important thing in your body and it gets lower with age, your body and it gets lower with age, your body and it gets lower with age, the obvious answer is I should be taking the obvious answer is I should be taking the obvious answer is I should be taking more of it. Okay, totally get that. So more of it. Okay, totally get that. So more of it. Okay, totally get that. So then the question becomes how do you then the question becomes how do you then the question becomes how do you take it? So there's basically two ways take it? So there's basically two ways take it? So there's basically two ways you can take NAD. You can take it in an you can take NAD. You can take it in an you can take NAD. You can take it in an intravenous infusion. I think that's a intravenous infusion. I think that's a intravenous infusion. I think that's a total waste of time because one, they're total waste of time because one, they're total waste of time because one, they're giving you probably way more than you giving you probably way more than you giving you probably way more than you need. And how many times how often can need. And how many times how often can need. And how many times how often can you do that? Like even if you were the you do that? Like even if you were the you do that? Like even if you were the most committed junkie, like would you do most committed junkie, like would you do most committed junkie, like would you do that once a week? that once a week? that once a week? >> Right. >> Right. >> Right. >> Right. That's not going to create a like >> Right. That's not going to create a like >> Right. That's not going to create a like the halfife of NAD is quite short. the halfife of NAD is quite short. the halfife of NAD is quite short. That's not going to meaningfully That's not going to meaningfully That's not going to meaningfully contribute to your total body levels of contribute to your total body levels of contribute to your total body levels of NAD.
1:18NAD. NAD. >> So people then try these and the other >> So people then try these and the other >> So people then try these and the other way you can take NAD is through way you can take NAD is through way you can take NAD is through formulations that you take under the formulations that you take under the formulations that you take under the tongue so that they get absorbed in your tongue so that they get absorbed in your tongue so that they get absorbed in your lymphatic system. That might be more lymphatic system. That might be more lymphatic system. That might be more promising. Kind I'm I'm kind of promising. Kind I'm I'm kind of promising. Kind I'm I'm kind of interested to see how that pans out. And interested to see how that pans out. And interested to see how that pans out. And then there are people that take these then there are people that take these then there are people that take these NAD precursors. One of them is called NR NAD precursors. One of them is called NR NAD precursors. One of them is called NR and one of them is called NMN, which and one of them is called NMN, which and one of them is called NMN, which you've probably heard of. And you know, you've probably heard of. And you know, you've probably heard of. And you know, frankly, there's no evidence that those frankly, there's no evidence that those frankly, there's no evidence that those get turned into NAD in meaningful enough get turned into NAD in meaningful enough get turned into NAD in meaningful enough quantities. They do a little bit, but quantities. They do a little bit, but quantities. They do a little bit, but they don't seem to get turned into it they don't seem to get turned into it they don't seem to get turned into it enough to really matter. And also, all enough to really matter. And also, all enough to really matter. And also, all of the clinical trials, and I say of the clinical trials, and I say of the clinical trials, and I say clinical trials kind of in quotes clinical trials kind of in quotes clinical trials kind of in quotes because they're usually industry funded because they're usually industry funded because they're usually industry funded trials, but all of these experiments, trials, but all of these experiments, trials, but all of these experiments, they don't tend to show very interesting they don't tend to show very interesting they don't tend to show very interesting outcomes except in very esoteric cases. outcomes except in very esoteric cases. outcomes except in very esoteric cases. So there was the probably the best study So there was the probably the best study So there was the probably the best study that people point to the two best that people point to the two best that people point to the two best studies that people point to. One is in studies that people point to. One is in studies that people point to. One is in people with Larri's disease I think they people with Larri's disease I think they people with Larri's disease I think they were given NR and um the people that were given NR and um the people that were given NR and um the people that were given NR had a slightly longer time were given NR had a slightly longer time were given NR had a slightly longer time till they needed to go on a ventilator
1:19till they needed to go on a ventilator till they needed to go on a ventilator >> and I mean that that I don't know how >> and I mean that that I don't know how >> and I mean that that I don't know how clinically relevant it was but you know clinically relevant it was but you know clinically relevant it was but you know to somehow suggest from that outcome to somehow suggest from that outcome to somehow suggest from that outcome that like we should all be taking NR is that like we should all be taking NR is that like we should all be taking NR is is a huge stretch. M guys, let's take a is a huge stretch. M guys, let's take a is a huge stretch. M guys, let's take a break to tell you about the David break to tell you about the David break to tell you about the David protein bar. It's a protein bar with a protein bar. It's a protein bar with a protein bar. It's a protein bar with a simple concept. It is the most protein simple concept. It is the most protein simple concept. It is the most protein with the least calories. That's all with the least calories. That's all with the least calories. That's all you're doing. 28 g of protein, 150 you're doing. 28 g of protein, 150 you're doing. 28 g of protein, 150 calories. Find me another protein bar calories. Find me another protein bar calories. Find me another protein bar with those kind of macros. You cannot. with those kind of macros. You cannot. with those kind of macros. You cannot. It's a very simple concept. Zero gram of It's a very simple concept. Zero gram of It's a very simple concept. Zero gram of sugar, 150 calories, 28 grams of sugar, 150 calories, 28 grams of sugar, 150 calories, 28 grams of protein. That is the best healthiest protein. That is the best healthiest protein. That is the best healthiest macros you will ever see on a protein macros you will ever see on a protein macros you will ever see on a protein bar. And adequate protein, as everybody bar. And adequate protein, as everybody bar. And adequate protein, as everybody knows, is is critical for building and knows, is is critical for building and knows, is is critical for building and preserving muscles now and as we age. It preserving muscles now and as we age. It preserving muscles now and as we age. It also plays a vital role in managing also plays a vital role in managing also plays a vital role in managing metabolic health and preventing excess metabolic health and preventing excess metabolic health and preventing excess fat body accumulation. I don't need no fat body accumulation. I don't need no fat body accumulation. I don't need no protein. You can tell by looking. But I protein. You can tell by looking. But I protein. You can tell by looking. But I [ __ ] with these David bars. They have [ __ ] with these David bars. They have [ __ ] with these David bars. They have the most protein for calories. So 100 the most protein for calories. So 100 the most protein for calories. So 100 calories of a David bar will help you calories of a David bar will help you calories of a David bar will help you feel fuller than 100 calories of any feel fuller than 100 calories of any feel fuller than 100 calories of any other bar.

So okay I want my kids are 17 11 and 8 and I want want my kids are 17 11 and 8 and I want want my kids are 17 11 and 8 and I want them to constantly come back and be with
1:26them to constantly come back and be with them to constantly come back and be with me till the day I die. Yeah. me till the day I die. Yeah. me till the day I die. Yeah. >> Okay.

So, so it's like, so, so all the So, so for example, like people say, the So, so for example, like people say, the So, so for example, like people say, "Oh, Peter, you exercise so much." I'm "Oh, Peter, you exercise so much." I'm "Oh, Peter, you exercise so much." I'm like, "I don't exercise that much." like, "I don't exercise that much." like, "I don't exercise that much." Like, you should see what I used to do. Like, you should see what I used to do. Like, you should see what I used to do.

I mean, mo like >> if I'm given the choice between an extra >> if I'm given the choice between an extra >> if I'm given the choice between an extra workout or a game of chess with my kid workout or a game of chess with my kid workout or a game of chess with my kid or playing soccer with my kid, I'm or playing soccer with my kid, I'm or playing soccer with my kid, I'm always going to pick doing the thing always going to pick doing the thing always going to pick doing the thing with my kid because I know that those with my kid because I know that those with my kid because I know that those years are very finite. Um, and that's years are very finite. Um, and that's years are very finite. Um, and that's the investment, right? that's like I the investment, right? that's like I the investment, right? that's like I have to invest in these relationships have to invest in these relationships have to invest in these relationships today because I know what I want today because I know what I want today because I know what I want tomorrow. And the same is true with with tomorrow. And the same is true with with tomorrow. And the same is true with with my wife, with my friends and stuff. So I my wife, with my friends and stuff. So I my wife, with my friends and stuff. So I think that's the way to position it is think that's the way to position it is think that's the way to position it is >> all the choices you make today are >> all the choices you make today are >> all the choices you make today are compounding choices compounding choices compounding choices >> and work backwards from what you want. >> and work backwards from what you want. >> and work backwards from what you want. >> So okay, to that end, reactive medicine >> So okay, to that end, reactive medicine
1:27>> So okay, to that end, reactive medicine is going to get really good. And I is going to get really good. And I is going to get really good. And I imagine with AI, I don't know exactly imagine with AI, I don't know exactly imagine with AI, I don't know exactly how it's going to affect it. I'm curious how it's going to affect it. I'm curious how it's going to affect it. I'm curious your take on that, but reactive medicine your take on that, but reactive medicine your take on that, but reactive medicine is going to get better. the better is going to get better. the better is going to get better. the better reactive medicine gets, I imagine, the reactive medicine gets, I imagine, the reactive medicine gets, I imagine, the less proactive we will be with our less proactive we will be with our less proactive we will be with our longevity. So if I know, for example, if longevity. So if I know, for example, if longevity. So if I know, for example, if I get cut, I could just throw some I get cut, I could just throw some I get cut, I could just throw some neosporin, I could take an antibiotic, neosporin, I could take an antibiotic, neosporin, I could take an antibiotic, I'm not really worried about getting I'm not really worried about getting I'm not really worried about getting cut.

It's like what preventive measures can It's like what preventive measures can It's like what preventive measures can you take for that? Well, again, dementia you take for that? Well, again, dementia you take for that? Well, again, dementia is really complicated because there are is really complicated because there are is really complicated because there are so many different types of it. There's so many different types of it. There's so many different types of it.

Don't don't answer for whether any of Don't don't answer for whether any of Don't don't answer for whether any of these participated in your dad's, but these participated in your dad's, but these participated in your dad's, but like everything from high blood like everything from high blood like everything from high blood pressure, high cholesterol, insulin pressure, high cholesterol, insulin pressure, high cholesterol, insulin resistance, poor sleep, high stress, resistance, poor sleep, high stress, resistance, poor sleep, high stress, those are just the ones we know about those are just the ones we know about those are just the ones we know about inflammation, certain types of inflammation, certain types of
1:31inflammation, certain types of infections, right? We're there's now a infections, right? We're there's now a infections, right? We're there's now a lot of infeed lot of infeed lot of infeed in the last 6 months that suggests that in the last 6 months that suggests that in the last 6 months that suggests that um reactivation of shingles especially um reactivation of shingles especially um reactivation of shingles especially an ocular version of shingles where the an ocular version of shingles where the an ocular version of shingles where the virus gets near the eye that could even virus gets near the eye that could even virus gets near the eye that could even increase the risk. So now we're you know increase the risk. So now we're you know increase the risk. So now we're you know we've always been pretty adamant about we've always been pretty adamant about we've always been pretty adamant about people getting their shingles vaccine people getting their shingles vaccine people getting their shingles vaccine once they hit 50. But that that's yet once they hit 50. But that that's yet once they hit 50. But that that's yet another reason I think that everybody another reason I think that everybody another reason I think that everybody once they hit 50 in fact I got my once they hit 50 in fact I got my once they hit 50 in fact I got my shingles vaccines when I was in my 40s. shingles vaccines when I was in my 40s. shingles vaccines when I was in my 40s.

Well, just I'm 50. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, just from the standpoint of shingles being from the standpoint of shingles being from the standpoint of shingles being such a miserable, awful experience. Um, such a miserable, awful experience. Um, such a miserable, awful experience. Um, so, um, but you said blood pressure and so, um, but you said blood pressure and so, um, but you said blood pressure and insulin resistance. My dad does have insulin resistance. My dad does have insulin resistance. My dad does have high blood sugar and he has become high blood sugar and he has become high blood sugar and he has become insulin resistant. So, are you saying insulin resistant. So, are you saying insulin resistant. So, are you saying that like potent obviously there are that like potent obviously there are that like potent obviously there are genetic factors, but like could diet genetic factors, but like could diet genetic factors, but like could diet have also sped up that process have also sped up that process have also sped up that process potentially with him? potentially with him? potentially with him? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Oh, [ __ ] It's horrifying to figure out >> Oh, [ __ ] It's horrifying to figure out >> Oh, [ __ ] It's horrifying to figure out that there's something that that there's something that that there's something that >> that could have been done to to stop >> that could have been done to to stop >> that could have been done to to stop that. that. >> Yeah.

1:36the medical industrial complex to tell the medical industrial complex to tell us what to do like maybe it is good that us what to do like maybe it is good that us what to do like maybe it is good that we do some research and we start going we do some research and we start going we do some research and we start going yeah well maybe if I eat right and yeah well maybe if I eat right and yeah well maybe if I eat right and exercise that this will be better for me exercise that this will be better for me exercise that this will be better for me but uh at least having access to the but uh at least having access to the but uh at least having access to the information is important that's crazy information is important that's crazy information is important that's crazy that 99% of dementia that 99% of dementia that 99% of dementia could have environmental effects that could have environmental effects that could have environmental effects that have sped up the process. have sped up the process. have sped up the process. >> Yeah. And just to be clear, there's a >> Yeah. And just to be clear, there's a >> Yeah. And just to be clear, there's a spectrum within there, right? There are spectrum within there, right? There are spectrum within there, right? There are some people that are going to have two some people that are going to have two some people that are going to have two copies of an APOE4 gene. copies of an APOE4 gene. copies of an APOE4 gene. >> They're going to have it. >> They're going to have it. >> They're going to have it. >> Well, they won't necessarily have it, >> Well, they won't necessarily have it, >> Well, they won't necessarily have it, but they're going to have a 10 times but they're going to have a 10 times but they're going to have a 10 times higher rate of having it, but then higher rate of having it, but then higher rate of having it, but then there's still something that might there's still something that might there's still something that might triggered it, but but look, triggered it, but but look, triggered it, but but look, >> half the case, a third of the cases of >> half the case, a third of the cases of >> half the case, a third of the cases of Alzheimer's disease don't even have one Alzheimer's disease don't even have one Alzheimer's disease don't even have one copy of the APOE4 gene. they might still copy of the APOE4 gene. they might still copy of the APOE4 gene. they might still have some other gene that we don't know have some other gene that we don't know have some other gene that we don't know yet is participating in this but but you yet is participating in this but but you yet is participating in this but but you know we have to believe that there are know we have to believe that there are know we have to believe that there are significant environmental triggers significant environmental triggers significant environmental triggers >> and I think that plays more of a role >> and I think that plays more of a role >> and I think that plays more of a role than what we see in cancer. I think in than what we see in cancer. I think in than what we see in cancer. I think in cancer you have more of kind of the bad cancer you have more of kind of the bad cancer you have more of kind of the bad luck problem, right? luck problem, right? luck problem, right? >> Where just cells are constantly turning >> Where just cells are constantly turning >> Where just cells are constantly turning over DNA and then you just event, you

How do you feel about like full body MRI How do you feel about like full body MRI How do you feel about like full body MRI scans? Um, I think they um, again, we do scans? Um, I think they um, again, we do scans? Um, I think they um, again, we do them with our patients, but we are we're them with our patients, but we are we're them with our patients, but we are we're pretty careful about doing it and we we pretty careful about doing it and we we pretty careful about doing it and we we don't necessarily recommend everybody do don't necessarily recommend everybody do don't necessarily recommend everybody do it because you open up a can of worms it because you open up a can of worms it because you open up a can of worms with that stuff. So, first of all, most with that stuff. So, first of all, most with that stuff. So, first of all, most MRI scanners out there are garbage. So, MRI scanners out there are garbage. So, MRI scanners out there are garbage. So, they're not even remotely good enough to they're not even remotely good enough to they're not even remotely good enough to be doing this. MRI in general be doing this. MRI in general be doing this. MRI in general >> is just kind of a crap technology >> is just kind of a crap technology >> is just kind of a crap technology compared to CT scan. compared to CT scan. compared to CT scan. >> Yeah, the magnet the magnet is makes a >> Yeah, the magnet the magnet is makes a >> Yeah, the magnet the magnet is makes a ton of noise, but that I mean the ton of noise, but that I mean the ton of noise, but that I mean the problem with MRI is it's not a problem with MRI is it's not a problem with MRI is it's not a standardized standardized standardized This is it's it's hard to explain this This is it's it's hard to explain this This is it's it's hard to explain this without getting really into the physics without getting really into the physics without getting really into the physics of it, which is super cumbersome, but of it, which is super cumbersome, but of it, which is super cumbersome, but like a CT scan has a quantifiable unit
1:38like a CT scan has a quantifiable unit like a CT scan has a quantifiable unit of measurement. So when you look at a CT of measurement. So when you look at a CT of measurement. So when you look at a CT scan, it might look like it's black and scan, it might look like it's black and scan, it might look like it's black and white and different shades of gray, but white and different shades of gray, but white and different shades of gray, but every one of those pixels can be every one of those pixels can be every one of those pixels can be described in something called a described in something called a described in something called a Houndsfield unit. and you know exactly Houndsfield unit. and you know exactly Houndsfield unit. and you know exactly what the color of that is and it's what the color of that is and it's what the color of that is and it's perfectly quantifiable and it's perfectly quantifiable and it's perfectly quantifiable and it's reproducible no matter what machine you reproducible no matter what machine you reproducible no matter what machine you get it done in. So some machines might get it done in. So some machines might get it done in. So some machines might have a higher resolution, some machines have a higher resolution, some machines have a higher resolution, some machines might go faster and some machines might might go faster and some machines might might go faster and some machines might have more or less radiation but the have more or less radiation but the have more or less radiation but the image reliability there's one language image reliability there's one language image reliability there's one language with MRI it ain't that way. with MRI it ain't that way. with MRI it ain't that way. >> So an MRI from one hospital could speak >> So an MRI from one hospital could speak >> So an MRI from one hospital could speak a different language than MI from Holy a different language than MI from Holy a different language than MI from Holy >> and so you are relying on a radiologist >> and so you are relying on a radiologist >> and so you are relying on a radiologist to sort of try to look through this to sort of try to look through this to sort of try to look through this thing. And so you might ask, well, why thing. And so you might ask, well, why thing. And so you might ask, well, why do we even do MRIs? Well, there are some do we even do MRIs? Well, there are some do we even do MRIs? Well, there are some things for which when you add contrast things for which when you add contrast things for which when you add contrast and you run a certain protocol, you get and you run a certain protocol, you get and you run a certain protocol, you get a much better look at certain types of a much better look at certain types of a much better look at certain types of tissue, but for this application for tissue, but for this application for tissue, but for this application for cancer screening, it's nowhere near as cancer screening, it's nowhere near as cancer screening, it's nowhere near as good as CT, but we just don't want to good as CT, but we just don't want to good as CT, but we just don't want to put people through that much radiation. put people through that much radiation. put people through that much radiation. So, we use the MRI with no contrast. Um So, we use the MRI with no contrast. Um So, we use the MRI with no contrast. Um but you know there are most of the
1:39but you know there are most of the but you know there are most of the companies that are out there advertising companies that are out there advertising companies that are out there advertising to do this are kind of running lousy to do this are kind of running lousy to do this are kind of running lousy protocols and um you know they're doing protocols and um you know they're doing protocols and um you know they're doing it really cheap. But the problem is it really cheap. But the problem is it really cheap. But the problem is you're missing cancers and more you're missing cancers and more you're missing cancers and more importantly you're catching a lot of importantly you're catching a lot of importantly you're catching a lot of things that aren't cancer and you're things that aren't cancer and you're things that aren't cancer and you're getting a lot of false positives and getting a lot of false positives and getting a lot of false positives and that creates a ton of emotional stress that creates a ton of emotional stress that creates a ton of emotional stress for people and can lead to a lot of for people and can lead to a lot of for people and can lead to a lot of follow-up procedures. And so when we follow-up procedures. And so when we follow-up procedures. And so when we talk to our patients about doing this, talk to our patients about doing this, talk to our patients about doing this, our view is you don't don't do this our view is you don't don't do this our view is you don't don't do this unless you're willing to go down a unless you're willing to go down a unless you're willing to go down a rabbit hole where we saw a nodule on rabbit hole where we saw a nodule on rabbit hole where we saw a nodule on your thyroid. It's probably not cancer, your thyroid. It's probably not cancer, your thyroid. It's probably not cancer, but now we can't ignore it. So we have but now we can't ignore it. So we have but now we can't ignore it. So we have to do an ultrasound. We're going to have to do an ultrasound. We're going to have to do an ultrasound. We're going to have to put a needle in it, take a biopsy, to put a needle in it, take a biopsy, to put a needle in it, take a biopsy, and I would say 20% of our patients are and I would say 20% of our patients are and I would say 20% of our patients are like, "Yeah, don't sign me up for that. like, "Yeah, don't sign me up for that. like, "Yeah, don't sign me up for that. Forget it." We had a we had a friend um Forget it." We had a we had a friend um Forget it." We had a we had a friend um whose mom went in. They saw some what whose mom went in. They saw some what whose mom went in. They saw some what they thought I guess were like tumors. they thought I guess were like tumors. they thought I guess were like tumors. >> And they in the moment diagnosed her >> And they in the moment diagnosed her >> And they in the moment diagnosed her with stage four. with stage four. with stage four. >> Whoa. >> Whoa. >> Whoa. >> They're like this is probably have maybe
1:40>> They're like this is probably have maybe >> They're like this is probably have maybe a couple years left. Like we're going to a couple years left. Like we're going to a couple years left. Like we're going to go in and look at them, but it looks go in and look at them, but it looks go in and look at them, but it looks like it's spread. I think stage four is like it's spread. I think stage four is like it's spread. I think stage four is when it spread to multiple parts of the when it spread to multiple parts of the when it spread to multiple parts of the body. body. body. >> Take them out, do the biopsy.

Um it's already playing a pretty it's already playing a pretty it's already playing a pretty interesting role in drug discovery. So interesting role in drug discovery. So interesting role in drug discovery. So how do you how do we create drugs? So a
1:41how do you how do we create drugs? So a how do you how do we create drugs? So a lot of times drugs are designed they're lot of times drugs are designed they're lot of times drugs are designed they're not meaning you you know the receptor not meaning you you know the receptor not meaning you you know the receptor that you want to activate or block and that you want to activate or block and that you want to activate or block and you know it's 3D structure and and you you know it's 3D structure and and you you know it's 3D structure and and you know what the protein is that makes it know what the protein is that makes it know what the protein is that makes it and you say okay well I have to make and you say okay well I have to make and you say okay well I have to make something that fits into here. something that fits into here. something that fits into here. >> So in the olden days you had to do it by >> So in the olden days you had to do it by >> So in the olden days you had to do it by trial and error. So you're just throwing trial and error. So you're just throwing trial and error. So you're just throwing different proteins at in. So different proteins at in. So different proteins at in. So >> yeah, you're what if I put this amino >> yeah, you're what if I put this amino >> yeah, you're what if I put this amino acid next to what if I string these acid next to what if I string these acid next to what if I string these 2,000 amino acids together? Will they 2,000 amino acids together? Will they 2,000 amino acids together? Will they fold in the right way to make a fold in the right way to make a fold in the right way to make a structure that fits there? Well, the guy structure that fits there? Well, the guy structure that fits there? Well, the guy that the company that won the Nobel that the company that won the Nobel that the company that won the Nobel Prize last year, uh was a it's a company Prize last year, uh was a it's a company Prize last year, uh was a it's a company that spun out of Google. They came up that spun out of Google. They came up that spun out of Google. They came up with an AI engine that now can predict with an AI engine that now can predict with an AI engine that now can predict from the amino acid sequence how it will from the amino acid sequence how it will from the amino acid sequence how it will fold and what the shape will be. So you fold and what the shape will be. So you fold and what the shape will be. So you don't have to do the trial and error don't have to do the trial and error don't have to do the trial and error because because >> you can just make you can just make the >> you can just make you can just make the >> you can just make you can just make the drug. drug. drug. >> Oh my god.

But that's still a really big deal. And But that's still a really big deal. And But that's still a really big deal. And by the way, if AI simulations can speed by the way, if AI simulations can speed by the way, if AI simulations can speed up the second and third Yeah. Yeah. Then up the second and third Yeah. Yeah. Then up the second and third Yeah. Yeah. Then then we could start to take then we could start to take then we could start to take >> So, so how would you create data sets >> So, so how would you create data sets >> So, so how would you create data sets with fake mice or with AI versions of with fake mice or with AI versions of with fake mice or with AI versions of mice? mice? mice? >> Um, you'd have to do it off real data to >> Um, you'd have to do it off real data to >> Um, you'd have to do it off real data to start probably.

So maybe you run a smaller sample that. So maybe you run a smaller sample that. So maybe you run a smaller sample size, but you get enough data out of size, but you get enough data out of size, but you get enough data out of there that you can simulate what would there that you can simulate what would there that you can simulate what would happen on a larger data size. happen on a larger data size. happen on a larger data size. >> I mean, that's that's where you get the >> I mean, that's that's where you get the >> I mean, that's that's where you get the exponential increases when you can use exponential increases when you can use exponential increases when you can use the they're not called fake data the they're not called fake data the they're not called fake data samples.

It's showing me gun videos, cars, F1. cars, F1. cars, F1. >> Okay, the last thing I guess I was >> Okay, the last thing I guess I was >> Okay, the last thing I guess I was curious about is is nicotine. That's the curious about is is nicotine. That's the curious about is is nicotine. That's the that's my only real, maybe not my only, that's my only real, maybe not my only, that's my only real, maybe not my only, but one of the devices that I I'm I'm but one of the devices that I I'm I'm but one of the devices that I I'm I'm drawn to and I know there's so much drawn to and I know there's so much drawn to and I know there's so much conflicting research, neutropic, what if conflicting research, neutropic, what if conflicting research, neutropic, what if that even means anything. So, how do you that even means anything. So, how do you that even means anything. So, how do you use nicotine? use nicotine? use nicotine? >> Um, I most days I probably don't except >> Um, I most days I probably don't except >> Um, I most days I probably don't except for the toothpicks, which I love. But, for the toothpicks, which I love. But, for the toothpicks, which I love. But, um, you know, if I do, I'll probably do um, you know, if I do, I'll probably do um, you know, if I do, I'll probably do three three milligram pouch once a day. three three milligram pouch once a day. three three milligram pouch once a day. Mhm. Mhm. Mhm. >> Um the data are I mean obviously you >> Um the data are I mean obviously you >> Um the data are I mean obviously you have to separate tobacco from nicotine. have to separate tobacco from nicotine. have to separate tobacco from nicotine. So tobacco is the problem not nicotine So tobacco is the problem not nicotine So tobacco is the problem not nicotine and most nicotine is synthetic but you and most nicotine is synthetic but you and most nicotine is synthetic but you have to make sure of that. So there's have to make sure of that. So there's have to make sure of that. So there's probably a downside in tobacco derived probably a downside in tobacco derived probably a downside in tobacco derived nicotine even without a combustion nicotine even without a combustion nicotine even without a combustion product. So be mindful of that. So I product. So be mindful of that. So I product. So be mindful of that. So I always tell people kind of make sure always tell people kind of make sure always tell people kind of make sure you're using synthetic tobacco uh pardon you're using synthetic tobacco uh pardon you're using synthetic tobacco uh pardon me synthetic nicotine. Um me synthetic nicotine. Um me synthetic nicotine. Um uh it's it does have high potential for uh it's it does have high potential for uh it's it does have high potential for addiction. So you kind of have to be addiction. So you kind of have to be addiction. So you kind of have to be super careful about that. uh that tends
1:50super careful about that. uh that tends super careful about that. uh that tends to become a bigger issue uh the higher to become a bigger issue uh the higher to become a bigger issue uh the higher the dose goes. So you know if you're the dose goes. So you know if you're the dose goes. So you know if you're keeping it below five six milligrams a keeping it below five six milligrams a keeping it below five six milligrams a day your your potential for um for day your your potential for um for day your your potential for um for dependency is low but you know once dependency is low but you know once dependency is low but you know once you're into the 20 30 milligrams a day you're into the 20 30 milligrams a day you're into the 20 30 milligrams a day your potential for dependency is very your potential for dependency is very your potential for dependency is very high. It can definitely interfere with high. It can definitely interfere with high. It can definitely interfere with sleep. So people doing it later in the sleep. So people doing it later in the sleep. So people doing it later in the day are going to potentially um if not day are going to potentially um if not day are going to potentially um if not likely impede their sleep. What's the likely impede their sleep. What's the likely impede their sleep. What's the halflife for nicotine? halflife for nicotine? halflife for nicotine? >> Um, I should know that and I don't >> Um, I should know that and I don't >> Um, I should know that and I don't remember.

Um, sleep. Um, sleep. Um, you know, there's probably for some you know, there's probably for some
1:51you know, there's probably for some people some short-term cognitive people some short-term cognitive people some short-term cognitive benefit, but it can be offset by the benefit, but it can be offset by the benefit, but it can be offset by the withdrawal as well. withdrawal as well. withdrawal as well. >> Um, it's also an interesting molecule in >> Um, it's also an interesting molecule in >> Um, it's also an interesting molecule in that at at one dose it creates sort of that at at one dose it creates sort of that at at one dose it creates sort of heightened awareness and then as the heightened awareness and then as the heightened awareness and then as the dose gets higher it creates relaxation. dose gets higher it creates relaxation. dose gets higher it creates relaxation. >> So that's in some ways kind of the >> So that's in some ways kind of the >> So that's in some ways kind of the benefit of it. Um, I don't know if you benefit of it. Um, I don't know if you benefit of it.
