| 0:00.0 | We are constantly producing baby cells that turn into adult cells. And those adult cells, |
| 0:05.5 | they die and they're replaced by new baby cells. But our ability to do that efficiently |
| 0:11.3 | decreases over time. How that correlates in life, we start to see we take longer to heal from |
| 0:17.3 | cuts and bruises and any sprains or injuries and or fractures. A big part of that is |
| 0:24.1 | stem cell production. Can we upregulate our own stem cell production? Absolutely. Now, are you |
| 0:31.8 | worried about falling into increasing ill health as you age? Mo Enyat is a really wonderful doctor who's keen to focus |
| 0:40.2 | on prevention rather than cure. Hello, welcome to Age Better with Liz Earle. Now, you full well |
| 0:46.5 | know that my mission is to change the conversation around aging. What I'm keen to show you is that |
| 0:52.6 | small but powerful shifts, things like how you eat, how you move and sleep, can genuinely transform how you age. |
| 1:01.4 | And this isn't just about extending lifespan, although obviously that's lovely too. |
| 1:05.9 | It's about extending health span. |

| 1:26.5 | Next Generation Health club and leading longevity |
| 1:29.2 | clinic, he's redefining the future of holistic health transformation. And his message is |
| 1:35.2 | very much the same as mine. In fact, we connected a couple of years ago at a health |
| 1:39.8 | optimization summit looking at longevity and biohacking and all of those buzzwords. And we have |
| 1:46.0 | connected behind the scenes, actually, over these last two years. So we do know each other reasonably |
| 1:50.9 | well, which is one especially thrilled to have him here today. And as we leave January behind and really |
| 1:55.8 | get into this year, what I'd love to dig into is the key areas of health that we should be focusing on in 2026 and beyond, of course. |
| 2:04.5 | I'd love to talk about gut health, caring for our hearts, and a muscle-first approach to weight loss. |
