Summary

Lately, I've been venturing down the rabbit hole of longevity and the marvels of anti-aging science...

...and there's a compound that keeps leaping out at me from every corner, fascinating me: Rapamycin.

With its potent claims in enhancing life and battling the deteriorating effects of age, I decided to dig deeper, and that's when I stumbled upon Ross Pelton's groundbreaking book Rapamycin: Rapamycin, mTOR, Autophagy & Treating mTOR Syndrome.

Rapamycin, an FDA-approved drug, has significant potential for life extension, as highlighted in the text. After thorough research, I decided to start taking a 5mg dose of Rapamycin weekly.

The man behind the book, Ross Pelton, is a prodigy in the field of health and longevity. An esteemed pharmacist, nutritionist, and author, Ross has established himself as a stalwart in the domain of drug-induced nutrient depletions, even being recognized as one of America's top 50 influential pharmacists.

A treasure trove of knowledge, Ross's background spans over three decades of groundbreaking research and invaluable scientific experience. His expertise ranges from the intricate world of pharmaceuticals to the holistic approach of natural therapies. From depression and anxiety to ADD & ADHD, Ross has touched upon some of the most pressing health concerns of our age, guiding thousands globally.

In our engrossing conversation today, we unravel the mysteries of Rapamycin. How was it discovered? Who truly benefits from it? We get into the intricacies of mTOR syndrome, explore the nuances of gut microbiome care, share with you how to get Rapamycin for yourself (and at what cost), and much more.

My name is Ben Greenfield and on this episode of the Ben Greenfield Life podcast most people have a total misunderstanding of probiotic bacteria and what they do and how they function.

0:12.0

The job of your probiotic bacteria is to digest components in your food and break them down and produce secondary molecules that we call postbiotic metabolites.

0:23.0

And it's these smaller metabolites that the probiotic bacteria produce that have a wide range of biological activity.

0:31.0

So it's not the probiotic bacteria themselves that the compounds that the probiotic bacteria produce these postbiotic metabolites that regulate not only your microbiome ecosystem but they get absorbed systemically and influence every single organ system in your body, especially your brain and your immune system.

0:50.0

And the problem Ben is that most people are not feeding their gut microbiome well and if you don't feed your probiotic bacteria well they will not thrive and survive, they won't be able to produce the postbiotic metabolites that regulate your health.

1:05.0

So what are the types of foods that your probiotic bacteria require? They are dietary fibers and polyphenols.

1:14.0

Faith, family, fitness, health, performance, nutrition, longevity, ancestral living, biohacking, and a whole lot more. Welcome to the show.

1:31.0

Alright folks, let's say you want to spice things up in the bedroom, you want more blood flow, whether you're a man or a woman and you don't want some kind of pharmaceutical, whether you don't want to get a prescription for it or you don't want to take it but you want some natural way to actually increase your sexual performance and your orgasm quality.

1:58.0

Well, it turns out there are such things as natural sexual performance boosters. So there is this one called Joy Mode, great name.

2:06.0

They're sponsoring today's podcast and I've used it and my wife has used it. We will put a sachet of this stuff in a glass of water and I sometimes just drive out straight into my mouth about three to four hours before a big date night or a special time in the bedroom.

2:22.0

I don't know why I'm talking like a dad to their six year old child, but anyways, we're all adults here. So what does it do? Well, it increases your blood levels of arginine and you'll him being and that directly promotes nitric oxide production and penile tissue relaxation and increased sex drive does the same thing for a woman's genitals.

2:42.0

The antioxidant action, the vitamin C in it protects the nitric oxide from oxidative degradation and that further enhances the blood flow that promotes the activity of nitric oxide. So collectively, it's a really cool scientific combo to enhance sex drive and blood flow, thus better performance and better orgasms.

3:00.0

So sexy, spicy stuff. It was created with best and class scientists and biochemistry PhDs obviously because they've mixed this up and formulated it really well and it takes good to also works fantastically as a pre workout. So kind of a bonus there. So anyways, they're going to give all my listeners 20% off of this stuff.

Alright folks, as you know, there's no such thing as creating a perfect day or a perfect routine and there's a lot of clutter online out there about the ultimate exercise routine or that one time management practice or the proven productivity hack.

4:45.0

And all these messages to me at least are confusing. They bring more harm than good in the long run, but it is possible to get balance and optimize all areas of your life.

4:56.0

It's not easy to create a truly balanced and fulfilling life, however, because there's a lot of overwhelming and conflicting information out there about what you should do to have long lasting health or build a great relationship or enhance your productivity.
