In the realm of health and wellness, revolutionary discoveries often require time and persistent effort. One such discovery, unraveling the profound effects of deuterium on aging and the benefits of deuterium-depleted water, has transformed our understanding of health and longevity. Deuterium, a natural element found in our bodies and environment, was first discovered in 1932 by Dr. Ure and his colleague. Despite its presence in our physiology, it has been found that our bodies should ideally have 25% less deuterium for optimal health. An excess of deuterium can cause damage to our bodies, a fact that has been overlooked in many scientific studies until now.

Deuterium disrupts the energy production process in our cells, leading to aging and a decrease in energy levels. Reducing deuterium levels in our bodies could potentially slow down the aging process and boost our energy production. Deuterium's impact on aging is not just limited to the cellular level, it also affects the structure of our DNA and collagen, two key components in the aging process.

The term 'biohacking' may sound intimidating, but it simply refers to a practice that uses science and technology to make your body function better. This convergence lies at the core of the Young Goose skincare line, with a mission to biohack skincare and rejuvenate the skin on a cellular level by utilizing powerful ingredients like NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide). NAD+ plays a crucial role in the skin's rejuvenation and repair processes, resulting in healthier, younger-looking skin. As we age, our NAD+ levels decline, which can lead to reduced cellular repair and increased signs of aging. Taking control of skin aging extends beyond just using skincare products, and holistic practices like regular exercise, intermittent fasting, maintaining good sleep hygiene, and embracing mindfulness can naturally elevate NAD levels. 

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, Amber Berger and Dina Wizmur from The Well Drop podcast engage in a compelling conversation with Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, and Co-founder, Anastasia Khodzhaeva for an insightful conversation on how Young Goose products aid in slowing down the skin aging process. We discuss how NAD+ makes your cells function younger, the importance of SPF, the top contributors to skin aging, and how the skin evolves through a woman’s cycle.

Have you ever wondered about the magical world of plant-based minerals? Do you want to know how they could revolutionize your understanding of health and wellness?

When it comes to maintaining our skin health, many of us focus on what we put on our skin, rather than how we treat and nourish our bodies. But the truth is, the secret to achieving radiant, youthful skin goes beyond just topical treatment. Our guest today is here to share the inside-out approach to health that could have a significant impact on the appearance of our skin.

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Reed Davis to discuss the connection between nutrition and skin health. He shares his journey into Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN) and his unique approach to treating health issues. We also cover why it’s important to focus on treating underlying causes rather than symptoms, and why detoxifying the body and maintaining a healthy microbiome are key in improving skin health.

Reed Davis is the Founder of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® (FDN) and the FDN Certification Course. He has made an invaluable contribution to the health and wellness industry through FDN. He has trained thousands of practitioners worldwide in functional lab testing and holistic lifestyle approaches, empowering them to help their clients reach optimal health by addressing the root causes of their health issues, rather than only their symptoms. 

What we discuss:

[07:17] Focusing on treating underlying causes rather than symptoms

[14:07] Niching is important in marketing to connect with people who have similar health problems.

[20:16] Balancing hormones and reducing overproduction of oils can improve skin conditions.

[26:16] Nutrition and its connection to training and skincare

[32:08] Physical, chemical, and emotional stressors can have long-lasting effects on the body.

[38:11] The key things to sort out for holistic health are mental/emotional, physical, and chemical stressors.

[44:00] Eating according to your genetic requirements can improve your health and energy levels.

[49:45] Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN) focuses on personalized health and wellbeing.

Key Takeaways:

• Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN) is a holistic approach to health that takes an inside-out perspective, placing emphasis on the relationship between nutrition and skin health. It recognizes that the appearance and condition of the skin are influenced by internal factors, such as gut health and nutrient deficiencies. FDN focuses on addressing the root causes of skin issues rather than solely managing the symptoms.
• Physical, chemical, and emotional stressors can have profound and enduring impacts on the body. Traumatic experiences and intense physical activity can contribute to the accumulation of trauma within the body, which can have long-lasting effects. Additionally, constant exposure to external factors and toxins can also take a toll on the body's well-being. 
• Eating according to your genetic requirements refers to following a diet that is tailored to your individual genetic makeup. The idea behind this approach is that each person's genetic composition influences how their body responds to different types of food and nutrients. By understanding your genetic requirements, you can make informed dietary choices that align with your body's specific needs.

Most of us have heard of exfoliation, and you may already be incorporating this step into your routine. But did you know that exfoliation plays a pivotal role in keeping your skin radiant and healthy? Think of exfoliation as prepping a canvas before painting. Just like you wouldn't apply fresh paint on a wall without preparing it first, you shouldn't apply skincare products on a layer of dead skin cells. 

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, dives into an essential step in your skincare routine: exfoliation. He covers why exfoliation is crucial for maintaining healthy skin, and the difference between chemical and mechanical exfoliation. Plus, he shares the importance of understanding the needs of your skin.

What we discuss:

[00:02:25] Why skin cell turnover is crucial for maintaining healthy skin 

[00:03:15] Chemical vs. mechanical exfoliation

[00:04:08] The benefits of proper exfoliation

[00:08:22] Why understanding the needs of your skin is essential

Key Takeaways:

• Exfoliation plays an important role in enhancing the absorption and effectiveness of skincare products. By removing the layer of dead skin cells on the surface of your skin, exfoliation allows the active ingredients in skincare products to penetrate more deeply and work more effectively. This means that your moisturizers, serums, and treatments can better target and address specific skin concerns, resulting in improved overall skincare results.
• There are two primary types of exfoliation: mechanical and chemical. Mechanical or physical exfoliation entails physically scrubbing the skin using an abrasive substance. In contrast, chemical exfoliation involves using ingredients such as acids or enzymes that dissolve the glue binding the dead skin cells together.
• Understanding the specific requirements of your skin is vital for effective exfoliation. Oily skin, for instance, often faces issues like excessive dead skin cells and clogged pores. Frequent exfoliation can be beneficial in maintaining a clearer complexion for oily skin types. On the other hand, dry skin may require a gentler approach to exfoliation, as it tends to be more sensitive.

Did you know it’s possible to trick your skin into functioning like it did when it was younger? Just like lifting weights helps build muscle and aerobic exercise helps improve your cardiovascular health, using active ingredients like retinol and vitamin C can actually change the function of our skin as we age. 

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Darnell Cox to discuss how small lifestyle changes can have a profound impact on skin health. We dive into Darnell’s comprehensive approach to maintaining a youthful appearance and lifestyle, and the importance of a holistic approach to skincare. Plus, we cover the complexities of skincare protocols and how to find the perfect balance between effectiveness and safety.

Marathon to creating her own YouTube channel, Darnell's journey is as inspiring as her work. Her enthusiasm for learning and sharing knowledge on how to live young is truly infectious, and it has resonated with thousands of people worldwide.

What we discuss:

(0:00:10) - Ways to maintain a youthful appearance and lifestyle

(0:11:13) - Tricking your skin for a more youthful appearance

(0:25:18) - Skincare protocols and lifestyle hacks

(0:31:20) - Balancing skincare and longevity

(0:39:08) - The importance of sun protection

Key Takeaways:

• Taking care of your body plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy skin. It starts with being mindful of what you put into your body and how you move it. Drinking excessively, lack of sleep, insufficient exercise, and failure to use sunscreen can undermine the benefits of any skincare procedure. Paying attention to all these aspects forms a solid foundation for promoting healthy, radiant skin.
• It's essential to understand that there is a limit to how much you can engage in certain skincare procedures without causing harm to your skin. Overdoing radio frequency or microneedling can exhaust the skin and disrupt its ability to repair itself. Just like when you tear muscle fibers during a workout, it is important to give your skin time to heal.
• Exposing your skin to sunlight in moderation can have a positive impact on our internal clocks and sleep-wake cycles. However, when it comes to protecting the skin from damage caused by the sun, it is important to take extra precautions and use sun protection.

Most of us know that protecting your skin from the sun's harmful rays is crucial for maintaining healthy skin. Unprotected exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays can cause premature aging, wrinkles, sun spots, and can even increase your risk of skin cancer. While wearing SPF to protect your skin from sun damage is essential, did you know that other lifestyle choices we make can add another line of defense against the harmful effects of UV rays?

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, discusses the topic of sun damage and sun protection, including why it's essential to understand how sun damage impacts our skin health. He covers the difference between UVA and UVB rays when it comes to how they impact our skin, and how the supplements we take and the foods we eat may help protect our skin from sun damage.

What we discuss:

[00:02:17] Understanding how sun damage impacts our skin health 

[00:04:34] How antioxidants protect the skin

[00:06:34] Why vitamin E is crucial for skin health 

[00:10:02] The fundamental role of diet and hygiene in skin health and sun protection 

[00:14:11] Using supplements for sun protection 

[00:17:34] Tips for embarking on a new supplement regimen 

Key Takeaways:

• The key culprits behind sun damage are UVA and UVB rays. UVB rays are primarily responsible for sunburn and direct DNA damage and reach only the outer layer of the skin. UVA rays have a longer wavelength and penetrate deeper into the skin to the dermis, causing long term damage and premature aging.
• Antioxidants are powerful molecules that play a vital role in protecting our skin and body from oxidative stress caused by free radicals, which are a byproduct of sun exposure. Antioxidants work by donating an electron and stabilizing the free radicals, which prevents them from causing a chain reaction of damage to other cells.
• Eating a balanced, nutrient rich, anti-inflammatory diet can greatly enhance our skin's ability to protect itself from sun damage. Fruits and vegetables that are high in antioxidants can provide an additional line of defense against the harmful effects of UV rays. Additionally, foods high in omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties and may help protect the skin from sun damage.

Skin aging is a natural process that affects everyone as they grow older, however, there are several factors that can accelerate the aging process, including cellular degeneration. Our skin is composed of various types of cells, each playing a crucial role in maintaining its health and appearance. Understanding these cellular mechanisms can help us take steps to slow down the aging process and maintain healthier, more youthful-looking skin. 

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Dr. Sandra Kaufmann to discuss the cellular causes of skin aging, and her work in developing the Kaufmann protocol. We’ll also cover why both internal and external care is necessary for optimizing skin health, and why mixing up your skincare can be beneficial for aging skin. 

Dr. Sandra Kaufmann began her academic career in the field of cellular biology, earning a Master’s Degree from the University of Connecticut in Tropical Ecology and Plant Physiology. Turning to medicine, she received her medical Degree at the University of Maryland, and completed a residency and fellowship at Johns Hopkins in the field of pediatric anesthesiology. For the last five years she has been the Chief of Pediatric Anesthesia at the Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, a nationally recognized center of excellence. Most recently, she was recognized as “Best in Medicine” by the American Health Council.

What we discuss:

[00:00] Dr. Sandra Kaufmann's work on cellular degeneration and aging can revolutionize skin care.

[06:28] Using molecules to affect aging pathways is the key to longevity.

[17:17] Improving skin health requires both internal and external care.

[22:12] Lactoferrin can help block Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and clear them from the skin.

[32:31] Mixing up skincare is important for aging skin

[37:57] Hypoxic training can enhance mitochondrial function for high altitude climbing.

[48:24] Starting a longevity company to provide access to preventive medicine

[53:16] Tailored dosing strategy is important for longevity medicines

[1:03:40] Hyaluronic acid is an important molecule for skin health.

Key Takeaways:

• When it comes to achieving and maintaining healthy, radiant skin, it's essential to adopt a comprehensive approach that includes both internal and external care. While topical treatments like injectables and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapies can enhance skin appearance, internal care through supplements can play a pivotal role in protecting and repairing the skin from damage.
• As we age, our skin undergoes various changes and requires different approaches to maintain its health and vitality. One effective strategy for aging skin is to mix up your skincare routine. This involves incorporating a range of products and techniques to address different concerns and adapt to the changing needs of your skin.
• Addressing skin concerns like creepiness requires a combination of internal and external approaches. However, in order to stimulate collagen, it is important to provide the necessary nutrients for fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production.

Collagen is one of the most crucial proteins in our body when it comes to maintaining healthy skin. Unfortunately, with age and exposure to external factors like sun damage and pollution, our collagen production decreases, leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and decreased skin elasticity. Thankfully, professional treatments like microneedling, chemical peels, and laser therapy can help stimulate collagen production and improve skin health and appearance. With the help of these professional treatments in addition to a daily skincare regimen, it is possible to rejuvenate the skin and maintain a youthful glow even as we age.

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, discusses how  professional skincare treatments can be beneficial for collagen stimulation. He covers why boosting collagen production is essential for overall skin health, and dives into some of the professional treatments that are becoming increasingly popular for maintaining youthful skin. Plus, he explains why combining professional treatments with an at-home skincare regimen is the key to improving overall skin health.

What we discuss:

[00:00] Professional treatments for collagen stimulation and their potential downsides

[04:51] Collagen production decreases with age and external factors, but professional treatments can help improve skin health and appearance.

[00:41] Different skin treatments stimulate collagen production

[12:56] Overview of professional treatments for collagen stimulation

[16:38] Professional treatments for collagen stimulation are vital but maintaining a daily skincare regimen and holistic lifestyle is equally important.

[20:21] Use ProC.A.R.E. and BioBarrier serums for youthful and resilient skin

[23:43] Tips for healthy skin

[27:10] A comprehensive approach is crucial for maintaining and enhancing skin health.

Key Takeaways:

• Professional skincare treatments such as microneedling, chemical peels, and laser therapy can be effective for stimulating collagen production and improving the overall appearance and health of the skin. However, it is equally important to maintain a daily skincare regimen and holistic lifestyle to ensure the health and well-being of your skin.
• It's essential to understand the potential downsides and misconceptions associated with professional skincare treatments. It's also important to note that the results of these treatments are not immediate and may require multiple sessions, depending on the person's skin type and condition.
• Consulting with a professional is important to understand which professional skincare treatments are best suited for your specific skin health goals and needs. Everyone's skin is unique, and various factors such as age, skin type, and the severity of skin concerns can influence the choice of treatment.

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, covers everything you need to know about collagen, including how collagen changes as we age and what we can do to boost its production in order to maintain skin health. We also dive into some of the lifestyle choices that can impact collagen production, and what collagen-boosting products you can incorporate into your skincare regimen.

Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies, providing structure and strength to our skin, bones, tendons, ligaments, and other areas. As we age, the production of collagen in our body decreases, which leads to changes in the quality and quantity of collagen in our tissues. Luckily, there are ways to help to support the production of collagen in our skin.

What we discuss:

[00:00] Understanding the science of collagen and its role in skin health.

[03:13] Collagen is crucial for skin health and firmness

[06:02] Factors that damage collagen can lead to premature skin aging

[09:04] Boosting collagen production for healthy skin

[11:47] A full regimen for collagen maintenance and boosting

[14:18] Support skin health with proper nutrients, hydration, and sleep

[16:46] Collagen supplements can improve skin elasticity and hydration.

[19:22] Importance of understanding and setting realistic expectations when consuming collagen supplements

Key Takeaways:

• Environmental factors can have an impact on collagen production, leading to premature skin aging. Sunlight exposure can result in wrinkles and sun spots, while blue light causes oxidative stress and inflammation. Unhealthy diet, lack of exercise, high stress levels, and insufficient sleep also contribute to collagen degradation.
• Type 1 collagen is a crucial component when it comes to skin health. This type of collagen is the most abundant in the skin and provides structural support to the skin's tissues. It is important to incorporate Type 1 collagen in our skincare routine to maintain healthy and youthful-looking skin.
• Although collagen supplements can improve skin elasticity and hydration, it is important to understand and set realistic expectations when consuming collagen supplements. In addition to supplements, we can support collagen synthesis through diet, topical products, professional treatments, and lifestyle modifications.

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, dives back into the world of NAD+, and discusses the science behind NAD+, its relationship with aging, and most importantly, how it can potentially transform your skincare routine.

NAD+ has been gaining a lot of attention recently in the skincare industry because of its ability to reverse cellular damage caused by aging and environmental stressors. As we age, the level of NAD+ in our bodies decreases, which can result in a decline in the efficiency of our cells' functions. This decline affects our skin's ability to produce collagen and elastin, leading to the formation of wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin.

Luckily, there are ways to boost NAD+ levels in the skin, and one of them is through skincare products that contain NAD+ precursors.

What we discuss:

[00:03:04] NAD+ is a crucial player in every person's body 

[00:06:57] Two things that happen as we grow older

[00:09:21] Boosting NAD+ with supplements 

[00:13:21] Why are NAD+ precursors necessary? 

[00:16:22] Why your skin needs to be in repair mode 

[00:18:55] How do we incorporate NAD+ in skincare?

[00:20:44] NAD+ is one of the most exciting molecules when it comes to longevity and anti-aging 

Key Takeaways:

• Simply using NAD+ in skincare products is not enough to reap its benefits because it cannot penetrate the skin barrier effectively. NAD+ precursors, on the other hand, are compounds that can increase the availability of NAD+ in the body by providing the building blocks to create it. NAD+ precursors such as nicotinamide riboside (NR) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) can help boost NAD+ levels in the skin.
• The skin requires adequate amounts of NAD+ to carry out efficient DNA repair and regulate cellular metabolism. NAD+ is also essential for the production of energy required for cell division, proliferation, and differentiation, which are critical for proper skin renewal.
• As we age, there is a rise in an enzyme called CD38. CD38 is an enzyme that is found on the surface of various cells in the body, and one of its main functions is to break down NAD+ into smaller components. When CD38 is produced at abnormally high levels, it can deplete cellular stores of NAD+, resulting in lower levels of NAD+ in the skin.

Did you know environmental stressors play a significant role in skin aging? Over the past few decades, there has been a significant increase in environmental toxins that can negatively impact our health, including our skin health. These toxins can be found in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat, the lighting we use, and the electromagnetic waves we are exposed to. Luckily, making lifestyle changes can help reduce our exposure to environmental toxins.

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Rachel Varga to discuss how environmental stressors like blue light and EMFs can drive skin aging. We also dive into the various technologies that can be used for skin rejuvenation, and the different detoxification methods for removing heavy metals from the body.

Rachel Varga is a double board-certified aesthetic nurse with over 10 years of experience working in aesthetic medicine and providing non-surgical rejuvenation treatments. Rachel is the host of a top 20 podcast, the Rachel Varga podcast, and an international clinical trainer for other physicians and nurses. She is also an award-winning author in the fields of regenerative and aesthetic nursing, as well as an executive board member and peer reviewer for the Plastic and Aesthetic Nursing Journal. Rachel is one of the first to combine functional techniques, biohacking, and modern medical aesthetics by teaching patients how to tune into what the skin is telling them about their internal health.

What we discuss:

[00:00] Environmental stressors drive skin aging

[07:49] Blue light is harmful to the skin and eyes, and can contribute to aging and disease.

[20:03] EMFs are a real threat to our physiology

[26:10] EMF mitigation through clothing and turning off devices can improve sleep and overall health

[38:48] Awareness of Morgellons disease and Lyme's disease is important for aesthetic practitioners

[44:39] Detoxification methods using technology

[56:26] Eating healthy and detoxing can improve body odor and overall health

[1:02:07] The importance of beauty and biohacking for self-expression and social ability

[1:14:08] Being able to emote is key for development and communication

[1:19:55] Strategies to mitigate stress and slow aging

[1:36:59] Protect yourself from blue light and use non-nano zinc oxide sunblock

Key Takeaways:

• Oxidative stress is a state where there is an imbalance between the production of ROS and the body's ability to detoxify and repair the damage caused by them. When the skin is exposed to oxidative stress, it can lead to premature aging and wrinkles. Additionally, EMFs have been shown to impair blood flow and circulation, which can reduce the skin's ability to receive nutrients and oxygen.
• One of the most visible effects of blue light on the skin is hyperpigmentation. Blue light has been shown to stimulate the production of melanin, which is the pigment that gives skin its color. This can lead to dark spots on the skin, such as sun spots and age spots.
• Detoxification methods such as ionic foot baths, saunas, and binders can be effective in removing toxins and heavy metals from the body. These methods work by helping the body eliminate harmful substances that have accumulated in the tissues and organs.

00:44:38 - The Anti-Aging Challenge 

00:52:23 - Choosing the experts for The Anti-Aging Challenge

01:03:13 - What is the difference between care and pro care?

Key Takeaways:

• At the end of the day, it all comes down to your own relationship with yourself and how you treat your body. You are the main character of your life, so it is important to take that responsibility and act accordingly. 
• Part of Aggie’s Anti-Aging Challenge is healing the relationship with growing older and making peace with that, and looking at aging as a self-fulfilling prophecy.
• It is easy to get caught up in a very strict regimen when it comes to biohacking practices. It’s important to remember the purpose of biohacking is to live a longer and more content life while using technology and science to your advantage.

Did you know that by dissolving your ego, you're able to have a new perception of reality?

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Greg Spivak. We discuss psychedelics, the benefits of microdosing, and best practices for having a psychedelic experience.

Greg Spivak is a Certified Wim Hof Method Instructor, Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist, and Nutritionist. He has spent a lifetime studying the art and science of what it means to live an optimal life through physical, mental, and spiritual means.

What we discuss:

00:04:20 Why seeing beauty in our surroundings is very crucial for living a happy life

00:09:12 Psychedelics as a continuation of consciousness

00:17:52 Greg’s journey with psychedelics

00:25:35 The connection between microdosing and macrodosing

00:29:43 Best practices for having a psychedelic experience

00:35:21 What would constitute as a microdose

00:39:33 The benefits of microdosing 

00:48:46 The best time of day to microdose

00:52:59 How often should you have a macro dose psychedelic experience?

00:57:00 The history of psychedelic research

Key Takeaways:

• A micro dose has almost the same effect on your brain as a macro dose, but on a smaller scale so you can still be functional in your day to day life. 
• Microdosing is just another tool of consciousness, like meditation, breath work, and purposeful kinds of exercise. It helps you to see more light and be more in tune with your day.
• When you're in a psychedelic state, it's essentially an altered state of consciousness where your ego is now down. When you dissolve your ego and look at things from a more blank slate, you're able to have a new perception of reality.

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Danijela Schenker. We discuss the different therapies for skin rejuvenation such as at-home micro-needling and softwave therapy.

She also explains why we should care for our skin sooner, her at-home approach to micro-needling, the downside of collagen overdosing, working on your skin from the inside out, and how to improve your skin barrier. 

Danijela Schenker is a former ICU nurse for twenty years and nursing instructor, turned beauty biohacker, and health visionary, ten years ago. Optimizing beauty, health, and well-being is her passion.

Key Takeaways:

• Beware of collagen overdose if you’re practicing at-home micro-needling. You need to reconsider the intervals at which you subject your skin to this treatment. Micro-needling uses thin needles to make tiny holes in the top layer of your skin. The damage helps stimulate your skin's healing process, so it produces more collagen and elastin. However, doing this too often without sufficient breaks in between will eventually result in an over-production of collagen that causes the tightening and thickening of your skin. This will cause your skin to stretch, thicken, and harden.
• Are you working from the inside out - or the outside in? From gut health to cell senescence, there are biological processes in our body that are behind most skin issues. However, since we only see the symptoms of these inside problems on the outside of our bodies, i.e. our skin, the beauty industry is very much focused on the end results and what happens to the skin on a topical level.
• The studies prove it: you only need to integrate these 2 simple ingredients in your skincare routine to repair your skin barrier - and upkeep it. First, you should use a moisturizer that contains ceramides as it restores the lipid composition of the skin. Ceramides are waxy lipids found in especially high concentrations in the stratum corneum. Another productive way to keep your skin barrier in top shape is to use humectants. They work by drawing water and binding it to the skin barrier. Products that contain hyaluronic acid, like Young Goose’s Adaptogenic HA Firming Boost Serum, keep your skin hydrated. 

What we discuss:

01:16: How does Danijela perceive her clinic?

02:00: When did Danijela’s clinic open?

04:54: What are the core services Danijela’s clinic offers?

07:36: What other protocols are useful for skin rejuvenation?

09:25: What is softwave therapy?

12:13: Why should we care for our skin sooner?

14:02: What is Danijela’s approach to at-home micro-needling?

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by JDr. Chris Shade. We discuss how mercury toxicity impacts your body and your skin. We also share how one can detoxify their body from this toxin. 

Christopher Shade, Ph.D., is the founder and CEO of Quicksilver Scientific®. He specializes in the biological, environmental, and analytical chemistry of mercury in all its forms and its interactions with sulfur compounds, particularly glutathione, and its enzyme system.

What we discuss:

05:51: About Dr. Shade

15:21: How does mercury affect the skin?

22:24: How does mercury toxicity impact your body?

32:03: How can we get glutathione levels up?

36:41: Why should someone be interested in the pre-care of molecules?

42:57: How to detoxify your body with supplements and topicals?

51:35: Where can you learn more about Dr. Shade?

Key Takeaways:

• Humans tend to find two different types of mercury in our bodies. The first is Methylmercury, which is an organic form of mercury. It is the most common form of mercury in fish and is present in some types of fish at concentrations. The second kind is mercury which tends to be found in dental amalgam fillings. They are often used to fill cavities and are known to release a small amount of mercury vapor. Amalgam can also release small amounts of mercury vapor during chewing. Both types of mercury have the potential to impair human health. 
• Glutathione is an antioxidant produced in cells, mainly in the liver. It's comprised largely of three amino acids: glutamine, glycine, and cysteine. Glutathione levels in the body tend to reduce over time due to aging but can also be due to poor nutrition, environmental toxins, and stress. When your body is dealing with a high level of mercury toxicity, these glutathione levels decrease. This causes a domino effect of biological processes to kick off, predominantly telomeres shortening and cell senescence. 
• Mercury toxicity is causing you to age prematurely. When high levels of mercury are found in the body, this causes your body to release oxidative stress, which may stimulate the senescent cell cycle. If you can regenerate the high antioxidant production in the body, you can reverse this process and prevent the further production of senescent cells. You can achieve this by boosting your glutathione levels.

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined and interviewed by Jodi Duval–which originally aired on the the Revital Health Podcast. The two discuss how you can optimize how your skin behaves by providing it with the right building blocks for your skin to function well and not only appear younger but behave younger.

Jodi Duval is the Head Naturopath and owner of Revital Health. She is also the CEO of HomeHope Australia, host of the Revital Health Podcast, and lecturer at Endeavour College.

What we discuss:

01:10: How did Young Goose start?

09:40: What’s the science and difference behind quality skincare products?

21:26: Which key ingredients do Young Goose products contain?

30:50: What are indications of the skincare working?

33:17: What is Amitay’s perspective of peptides?

45:10: What is skin trauma?

58:03: What are the possible harms of skincare?

1:08:14: What can you do to optimize your skin?

1:23:34: How can you support your skin’s health from an internal perspective?

Key Takeaways:

• Resveratrol is a naturally-occurring compound present in grapes, some berries, and other fruits and nuts. This plant compound acts as an antioxidant. But what people don’t know is that when applied to the skin, we don’t benefit from the resveratrol itself, but from the defense mechanism of the plant compound. It acts as an antioxidant and thus can protect cells against oxidative damage of free radicals and UV radiation on the skin by reducing the expression of AP-1 and NF-kB factors. It also slows down the process of photoaging the skin. 
• Glycation is a process that is caused by the presence of excess glucose in skin fibers. This excess triggers an internal reaction in which sugar molecules adhere to the collagen and elastin proteins, which normally help keep skin firm and supple. As a direct result of glycation, our skin becomes more rigid which may increase the appearance of concerns such as puffiness, loss of elasticity, wrinkles, and fine lines.
• Both mineral and chemical sunscreen technically do the job, they aren’t made equally! Mineral sunscreens allow your skin to detoxify itself in a way that chemical sunscreen does NOT. With this process being crucial for your body’s detoxification process, you can’t afford to go the chemical sunscreen route.
• Skin trauma is the process in which the skin shows the appearance of past emotional traumas. Whether they are from repressed emotions or the expression of many negative emotions over time, these tend to manifest in the skin through different types of fine lines and wrinkles on one’s skin.

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Robin Switzer.

Robin Switzer has built KetoCon into one of the most highly regarded health conferences in the U.S. It takes place in Austin, Texas, every year. The event typically hosts thousands of vendors, brands, speakers, influencers, and participants over three days to engage with other health-conscious people

Key Takeaways:

• Most Americans have a serious problem with mastering delayed gratification as we live in the age of instant gratification and on-demand dopamine-producing activities. But what’s important to remember is that everything you are feeling, whether you feel energized or tired, is a result of all the micro-decisions you made in the past years. If you’re not happy with the result of those micro-decisions, you can still turn them around. It all starts with acquiring the knowledge on how to do that, first.
• Being able to identify yourself within a community may be one of the ultimate hacks for improving your lifespan. The reason why is that when you become part of a community that is congruent with the lifestyle you want for yourself, it significantly reduces the amount of brainpower it takes for you to make a decision. This is because as humans, we naturally compare ourselves to those around us and if we strategically place ourselves around the people we want to be like and whose beliefs and values align with ours - we will naturally take the same decisions. 
• Most of us think of health or being healthy as being able to live as long as possible. We consider living another 40 years in pain as a better alternative to living another healthy 30 years. But the truth is that health is NOT simply living as long as possible. Health is about living well. 

What we discuss:

04:35: How did Robin decide to produce KetoCon?

09:34: What did Robin see in this business?

21:27: What is exciting about this year at KetoCon?

28:57: What is the structure of the conference?

35:00: How should guests approach the conference?

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Josh J Holland.

Joshua J Holland is a wealth of experiential knowledge and wisdom. As a dedicated biohacker, state-of-the-art fitness trainer, holistic health coach, and sports professional, he champions the philosophy of “awareness through experience,” and has subsequently spent years consulting with elite professionals to build a vast well from which to draw when evoking alignment of body, mind, and spirit for his clients.

Key Takeaways:

• The ultimate foundation of health is self-awareness. It is through inquiring within that the initial awareness shift happens which allows us to take control of our health. We do a lot of things in our daily lives incorrectly unconsciously, until we become conscious of it. The good news is we’re not stuck in our old habits and ways forever - once we become conscious of them, this newly found awareness provides us with the ability to consciously optimize our efforts. This applies to physical movements such as squats as much as it does to skincare. For example, you may not realize that you are unconsciously tugging at your delicate under-eye skin area too roughly when applying your eye cream, but once you do become conscious of it, you can turn that around.
• Incorporating exercise into your health optimization protocol should be approached from a movement or play perspective rather than from an exercise perspective. Plus, moving when you feel like it rather than exercising when you think you should allows you to stay consistent. 
• Blood circulation is something that is vital to the health of your skin and which is stimulated through exercise. Blood delivers the necessary nutrients to our skin to defend itself and fight the signs of premature aging. Poor circulation usually entails a decrease in reparative qualities as the waste removal system and healing process will also be weakened. This increases the risk of inflammation within the skin, which may cause breakouts or eczema. If there is a barrier deficiency or even a wound, the lack of proper nutrient delivery to the skin may also result in an inability to repair itself. Thus, the importance of getting movement in daily.

What we discuss:

06:40: About Josh

09:55: How did Josh evolve into who he is today?

23:06: What is the awareness shift?

31:52: How does Josh link his system to the psyche?

38:06: What to do once you remove your shoes?

47:07: What is the foundation of movement in Josh’s protocol?

50:45: Are joint rolls something you should be doing daily?

58:30: Where to get more from Josh?

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Dr. Molly Maloof.

Dr. Maloof is the founder and CEO of Adamo Bioscience, a company pioneering the science of love. She provides personalized medicine to world-class entrepreneurs, investors, and technology executives in Silicon Valley. 

Since 2012, she has worked as an advisor or consultant to over 50 companies in the digital health, consumer health, and biotechnology industries. She teaches a course on healthspan at the Medical School at Stanford University.

Key Takeaways:

• Women have different biological processes in their bodies from men, such as the production of estrogen and other types of hormones as well as a menstrual cycle that is likely to impact their body’s ability to reap the benefits of certain biohacking protocols. They must consider this and adapt accordingly.
• Women go through four different stages in their menstrual cycle where their bodies simply can’t handle the same consistent amount of stress, whether it is physical or emotional, at every stage of their cycle. As result, women may not be performing at their absolute best nor reaping the most benefits from their efforts to be in good health if they disregard their menstrual cycle. This is the complete opposite of men, who can take on stressors at any time and be able to push through. 
• Skin autofluorescence is a non-invasive biomarker often used in the medical field as a diagnostic tool for different health concerns, such as diabetes, heart disease, and cognitive impairment among other things. But what most people don’t know is that when your overall health is in top shape, skin autofluorescence is responsible for that glowing skin you have! Glowing of any kind whether it be your skin or your hair being glossy is an important biomarker for good health.

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Dr. Keira Barr Azadi.

Dr. Keira Barr is a dual board-certified dermatologist and menopause specialist who knows all too well what it feels like to feel uncomfortable in her skin. Her approach combines science with soul, beginning with bioidentical hormones, cutting out what doesn’t belong in your life, and making room for what sets your soul on fire. 

Key Takeaways:

• Most of us think it is our brains that absorb most of the physical impact of stress. While that is true, there is a second area that is highly responsive to stress: your skin. As your body produces high levels of cortisol your skin develops different inflammatory skin conditions such as acne, eczema, rosacea, and more. Hence the importance of learning how to manage stress levels to effectively control these inflammatory skin conditions.
• Women who are under a lot of stress tend to experience premature aging of the skin. This happens because cortisol breaks down the collagen and elastin in your skin, which are both essential to keeping a youthful skin appearance. Thus, getting your stress levels in control to lower your cortisol production will benefit you not only from an overall health perspective as you balance out your hormones, but will also allow you to prevent premature aging of the skin.
• Skincare is not just a beauty product category; it’s a lifestyle and a way to care for your skin. Taking care of your skin means investing your energy into ensuring all of the health pillars are taken care of. Whether it is your sleep quality, what you eat, how you manage your stress levels, the intentions you set for yourself daily, or how you physically touch your skin during your skincare routine, they all come together to make up skin care. 

What we discuss:

00:33: About Dr. Keira Barr

02:47: How can stress manifest itself in your skin and overall health?

9:02: What was Dr. Barr’s journey like?

16:05: What is the relationship between stress, cortisol levels, and aging?

18:44: How do we stop the stress cycle?

Welcome to another episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast brought to you by Young Goose Skincare! In this episode, host Amitay Eshel, the CEO of Young Goose, is joined by Ben Azadi.

Ben is the author of four best-selling books, Keto Flex, The Perfect Health Booklet, The Intermittent Fasting Cheat Sheet, and The Power of Sleep. Ben has been the go-to source for intermittent fasting and the ketogenic diet. 

He is known as ‘The Health Detective’ because he investigates dysfunction, and he educates, not medicates, to bring the body back to normal function. Ben is the founder of Keto Kamp; a global brand bringing awareness to ancient healing strategies such as the keto diet and fasting. 

Ben is the host of a top 15 podcast, The Keto Kamp Podcast which won Keto Podcast of The Year (2022) by The Metabolic Health Summit. Ben has the fast growing Keto Kamp YouTube channel with over 150,000 subscribers, and TikTok channel with over 285,000 subscribers and over 46 million video downloads.

Key Takeaways:

• Contrary to popular belief, you need to expose your body to stressors regularly if you want to optimize your health. This is because by exposing your body to stress, it adapts itself to it in a way where it becomes stronger and more resilient over time.
• When it comes to achieving optimal health and longevity, the foundations are important because you need to have that strong foundation to build a strong house.
• What you think is what you attract — and the RAS is responsible for it.The reticular activating system (RAS) is a network of neurons located in the brain stem that project anteriorly to the hypothalamus to mediate behavior, as well as both posteriorly to the thalamus and directly to the cortex for activation of awake, desynchronized cortical EEG patterns.
• Because you could be purchasing the best supplements in the world and following the best exercise routines, but if your foundations are weak, that house of yours will fall apart.
• While it’s difficult to restrict your calories by eating less - and dangerous for your health if incorrectly done - there are some different techniques you can tap into to mimic those survival mechanisms that take place during caloric restriction. According to Ben, intermittent fasting is the best way as it has similar benefits without the drawbacks if you do it right.

Stem cells are at the center of cellular repair. When the natural production of such stem cells slows down at some point in our 30s, it’s only normal that we don’t feel as “young” as we used to. This is because our tissues are slowly losing their turnover abilities. After all, we have fewer stem cells being produced.

The good news is that while the production of stem cells is a biological process, there are some protocols you may follow to maximize the production of stem cells.

Tune into this episode of the Biohacking Beauty podcast with guest Cristian Drapeau to learn more about these stem cell protocols. 

Over the past fifteen years, Christian Drapeau has developed several globally recognized nutraceutical stem cell and wellness products and is continuing his botanical research and development effort on supporting the various aspects of the body’s regenerative process. 

Currently, Christian is working on a second book describing the link between the number of circulating stem cells and disease formation, namely that people with fewer stem cells are at greater risk for developing age-related degenerative diseases, and that a deficiency in stem cell-based day-to-day endogenous repair is the main underlying cause of disease formation. This work puts stem cells at the core of antiaging medicine, explaining how a daily increase in the number of circulating stem cells can be one of the best antiaging strategies in order to maintain vibrant health, as we age.   

Christian is a frequent speaker at Stem Cell Conferences as well as business events worldwide, and has lectured on the physiology of stem cells at various reputable hospitals and universities. He has also been a featured Mensa national event speaker.
