0:00.0	The more a plant is stressed, the more it will have to adapt to its environment, and the higher
0:05.4	the levels of polyphenols it will produce, and there are vast and fascinating family of plant
0:12.2	nutrients through the lifelong intake of these compounds that we really reap the benefits
0:18.4	for chronic disease prevention, increasing our health span.
0:22.6	Sertuans are master metabolic regulators.
0:26.6	So they're regulating this sort of fundamental process of how cells were.
0:32.6	Welcome to the Melanie Avalon Biohacking Podcast, where we meet the world's top experts to explore the secrets of health, mindset, longevity, and so much more.

1:36.0	body. Now I feel like I understand. I am just so grateful for today's conversation with Glenn.
1:40.9	And he was such a wonderful human being. It was so exciting to dive deep, deep,
1:45.5	deep into how plant compounds might be benefiting our bodies and maybe why it's a good thing
1:50.3	that I eat pounds and pounds of blueberries every night. So I really think you guys will enjoy
1:55.5	today's episode. The show notes for today's episode will be at Melanieavalon.com slash Sirtuans.
